Back on 09-03-2021 this same question was asked and answered.

Everyone on here is more than willing to help, I sure as heck can use it sometimes, but if you don't like the answers, or can't be bothered to read the replies, maybe you should try another site....I'm pretty sure you've done this a few times regarding other issues you were having.

If its a Bose factory stereo, its not just a stereo change, those speakers all have amps on each of them.

The tech should have known just by looking at the car without even touching it.

That's what you are paying the tech to figure out. Sit back, let him worry, and don't write the check until it works right.
