Not sure what year yours is but these are from my '89 vert. The amp is mounted on the back wall with a rack that I built and installed under the carpet. Hope this helps. Tim

for the C4, it's best to loose the bose. The older bose drivers age and are usually dryrotted and the amps are not in the best of shape.

you can preserve everything and run new wire to each corner, which due to the nature of the GM wire, it would not be a bad way to go. The GM wire gets hard and brittle after awhile anyway... and is soooo small... yucky.

check out the C4 Audio FAQ in the Audio section:

Go over to the audio section of the forum. There is a wealth of knowledge and ideas there!

Pioneer 7200H stereo/CD player, JBL BP 1200.1 amp for sub, JBL P80.4 amp for main speakers, Polk EX2540 satellite door speakers, Polk DX9 (6x9) rear speakers, Kicker L5 DVC 10" subs mounted in sealed storage compartment bins, Street wires and fuse box, Monster cables, Streetwires 1F Capacitor.

Lars and the guys helped me through the entire process
