Default C7: wiring door speakers

so it appears the 8" woofer and the tweeter are on the same amp channel and have a passive cross over. So you run my new active 3 way setup I need to run new wire to the tweeter and 8" sub to bypass the cross over.

Any pro tips for getting wires passed through the rubber tube b/w door and car? Ive done it many times on other cars but the pass through is pretty far up the door and hard to get through from kick panel.

Alternatively, anybody know where the factory xover is? Maybe I can deal with the issue there and not have to run new wires into door

Default Running C7 New Door Speaker Wires

Jordan, were you able to run your speaker wire inside the rubber wire loom with the rest of the harness wires or did you run it outside of it. The end that is attached to the door doesn’t appear to have an opening. I would have to cut it to get the speaker wire in it. I can pass the wire under it and get it into the door, but I can’t get it into the harness with the rest of the wires. What is everyone doing? I would appreciate the help. Thanks

I went underneath the bottom of both grommets and wrapped the speaker wire in black Tessa tape. I could have put a hole in the grommets and ran it inside the grommet, but it made no sense to do it to me.
