the corsa ISO plug into the back of the head unit has three plugs, one of which is bigger than the others, ignore this one! one with about 4 wires(by memory) and another with 8. the 8 wire plug is your speakers! | |

But its too much hassle doing it at the multiplugs for my liking- hard to get at etc, and I'd probably mistake the mirror wire for a speaker wire or something! | |

quote: Getting wires through the door can be done, i did mine by pushing wire as far as i could up to the multiplug small hole in the sleeve behind the plug on the car side then drilled a hole in the dooe next to the door multiplug small gromet bit of glue form glue gun and thats it done!!!!! Its abit fiddily but your speakers will like it alot more:! As for hunting the wires out i didnt have any problems finding the right ones, ones brown and yellow and will have a brown right next to aint and the sam the other side but blue!!!!!! To make sure i snipped wire (in a place i could re join if needs be) and then turned HU on and see if it worked, do the wire you are not sure of first tho:thumbs: | |

I thought with the full door multiplug threading new wires through wold be very difficult. | |

just look in the haynes manual it has all the wiring diagrams,then find the loom coming into the car from the door, chop the wires then join your amp wires to these and bingo, but the standard wire is seriously crap, really thin cheap stuff that wont help your speakers!!!!!! | |

Joining at the head unit sounds like a good idea - easier to identify the speaker colours from the rest of the door looms. | |

I will soon be amplifying all my speakers with a 4 channel amp, however I don't want to get into my door multiplugs - Want to keep 'car-side' of them' - I want to connect the amps front speaker wires to the existing ones to simplicity without drilling the plugs etc. |
