Looking to Upgrade Bose System

This is the link that explains the switchover.

The connector you have has a tab that has to be removed. That's all. It took me over an hour with a little frustration, but the second one goes quickly, as there's unexplainable wiggling involved. Also nerves since you're pulling a piece from the dash that doesn't appear removable.

From the link
"The speaker has about 5 inches of wire slack. Disconnect connection and trim off the very small side tab. I didn’t get a picture, but it’ll be obvious. I used a sharp kitchen scissor to do this.

Reverse process and your done. First side took about an hour because leather dash, expensive parts, and extreme care. 2nd tweeter 5 minutes.

During install I used the fader to listen to Bose and Burm half way through install— huge difference. Bose blows above about 1/2 volume. If there was a lot of “wind noise” (lol) out driving previously I’d just turn the stereo down — just became too muddled.

The Burm upgrade has been up to 85mph with top down and incredible clarity. Lot more punch. Lowered my treble to neutral.

If you have Bose, I can’t recommend this upgrade enough…just do it.

Cheers"
