Title: Bose Audio Swap OUt
Post by: Lee 7Star on 25 June 2010, 11:42:33

What work is involved to swap out a Bose audio rear shelf from an Omega Elite into a Omega with no Bose? I am breaking the Elite so I have all the parts I need... Thx Lee

You'll need all the Bose speakers, rear shelf, subs and amp under the shelf, wiring from the driverside kick panel to the amp under the rear shelf ;)

Think thats about it :y

Thx:) Plus point is that I have all the parts and the headunit is already in, front Bose speakers went straight in... I supppose what I was getting at was is the rest of the conversion something I could do myself or should it be left to someone who has done this job before?

Without knowing your technical capabilities, its a difficult question to answer.

However, refitting is simply a reverse of removal, so shouldn`t really be rocket science if you have managed to get it all out.

Take your time, and shout if you get stuck - plenty on here will assist.

Hmmm not always the reverse. If it's a facelift without Bose it's unlikely to have the connector behind the kick panel to plug the Bose loom into.

All prefacelifts have the connector but not a lot of the non-Bose facelifts.

No they dont. Only cars with CD changers are likely to have the connector in place. Even if the connector is there then there is also a fuse to plug in - wont work without it  :y
