Did you replace the speakers or are you trying to use the Bose speakers?

The Bose speakers in our cars are amplified at the speaker. If you are trying to use them with an aftermarket head unit it is not going to work.
if you had a shop do the work I would bring it back to them and let figure it out. It would be fun to watch their reaction
