front speaker wiring. how much dash to remove?
I'm trying to run new wiring for the speakers, and i have the kick panels off. is getting the wire from the radio to the kick panel areas just an issue of fishing it through, or should i remove some stuff?

What year? Im too lazy to check profiles. I would imagine the speaker wires are bundled with the rest of the wiring. Meaning the harness would need unwrapped. Why not leave it there and just fish new wiring, and tie the old harnesses out of the way?

and yes, i'm fishing new. I'm trying to ask if i should remove the glove box and some other stuff to have easier access to the path?
I'm definitely not trying to dig into a harness...

I'd pull the glove box and the part surrounding the radio. Just the easy stuff. Nothing more than that.
Zip tie as you go. You really don't want wiring falling down and tangling in your pedals while you are driving. BTDT.

thanks a bunch, i got it. I thought I had butt connectors handy, but i couldn't find them, so I soldered the wires. I wonder if i'm the only one who uses a glue gun as heat shrink protection over the wire, lol...
