    No, it says you pull the 6x9's out through the rear deck.....

    ...there was no way I could get to the back 2 screws....the holes didn't even come close to lining up...had to take the rear deck out....


    ...it was ok anyways...the plastic base the speakers sit on didn't sit tight against the metal deck and rattled....drove me INSANE....

    ..so i just relied on the trusy old tire innertube...cut it up, and put pieces between the plastic and metal....no rattling.

    Yeah, thats wierd. The guide says just to remove the grills, but we all know that you can't do that. Anyways, yes, remove the bottom cushion, then the seat back, then bend up or remove the rear deck. You will probably have to loosen the rear side panels if you want to remove the rear deck.

    You won't. Dash pieces are super easy to remove in 3rd gen gps.

    Just pull off the center bezel, and you have full and complete access

    Yup the bezel just pops off. Not even any screws. You have to pop off the plastic trim piece around the key cylinder to.

    Anyone know if there's anything special about a '98 Intrigue with Bose? Speakers wire up the same?

    The Metra website just lists a standard harness part # 70-2001. Usually the Bose systems need a amp integration harness. But it doesnt list one for this car. You may need to run speaker wires back to the amp and bypass it if you have no audio.

    That, or you may need to find the amp turn-on lead in the harness. Typically, it is Pink or Dark Green. Sound may be so-so though.

    Re: W-body Install Guides

    Oh yea i forgot to mention that. Most times that doesnt work with Bose though. Usually the speaker wires are low level going to the amp and regular speaker wires coming out of the amp going to the speakers. Worth a shot though since bypassing the amp will likely be a pita.

    Looks like this would work for adding a new stereo to the factory amp.
