well I cant seem to find a new bose radio and I Know it can not be replaced with a standard unit.
If I wanted to fit a standard radio and speakers would I be able to use the original speaker wiring (to save time) by joing them where they used to come in and out of the amp
-
Yep, nothing wrong with the wiring as long as you trace it through correctly. By the way what Bose HU are you after?

i would like to know if a modern bose din e or double din radio would be compatable with the bose set up in the omega, or have they changed the outputs to a more std config. ie 4 ohm speakers instead of 2 ohm and amps. just curious as my dads elite 3.2 is having trouble with his 2013 hu again. it wont eject the cd cartridge and is getting a bit peeved.

BOSE only make OEM radios, so although it may appear as if there are a few other makes to choose from, most of the Honda/Nissan/Mazda/Audi BOSE units are also dedicated solutions to the cars that they are in and will have outputs to suit the specific vehicle.
They really did a job on this, and really have restricted you to Vx compatable units only :'(
