Running speaker wire to front door speakers

The boot is a 2 piece system where it meets the cab. There's the boot which is wrapped around a plastic retainer with a clip at the top. If you pull the boot back a little you can use a flat head screw driver to push down on that clip and the boot will pop off. No need to access anything from the inside. You can then access the pink lever clip that pulls down and unclips the harness. Then just pull the door side of the boot out, run your guide wire through the boot, attach to speaker wire and pull through. I run my speaker wire down the bottom of the boot because there is just enough room to go through the cab between the clip finger and the harness. If you run it through the top it makes the upper clip hard to get back in (or out). 

 

 

Let me see if I can get a quick vid. 

 

Here we go...

I used 14 gauge but 12 should fit as well. Drilling is what I wanted to avoid.

This is the way. Worked on my 2015 Silverado with 16g wire.
