I'm just wondering why you want that Bose garbage. Sure it's good for stock, but if you're gonna be swapping stuff out you might wanna shop around for something better. Believe it or not, Bose isn't the end all be all as they lead people to believe.

thanks everyone for replys and opinions. at this point yes i am happy with my dual head unit, it puts out great sound, and the speakers and the head unit can handle full volume, but i dont like messing with the eq. to put the volume all the way up i have to put the bass on -2 and the treble on +3 or +4, then you can hear it from a great distance and its pretty clear in the car. on the parts car with the bose, i got a good station on the radio (with no lcd screen) and turned it up all the way, and it really satisfied me. i liked how it sounded and adding my subs would really make the deal. i know its not a high end stereo system.... but yes, ITS FREE. i dont mind the headache, i mean this car so far needed a new front bumper, new rear bumper, new FULL exausted, rocker panels, side skirts, new seats, new wheels, new ball joints, new wheel bearings, new breaks, new blower motor, adding hud and dic, new valve cover gaskets, new starter, new stereo, new tail lights, head lights, alot of bulbs, oil change, i mean i can keep going on and on, and 80% of that list there is DONE, i have alot of work into this car, and wouldnt mind adding some wires and what not, but my problem is the lack of the wiring pin out for the bose amp, and where the harness goes that runs up the drivers side floor and what is all tied into it really? and where does it lead? those questions are still unanswered, and thats my whole problem, thank you guys for your feedback, but i just need some technical help of how to do this or some questions answered. im not trying to have attitude or be a d***head but im just trying to pull off this mod. i would really enjoy the bose, i know there not the besttt but they are good.
thank you

Fixed. A lot of the sound systems Bose makes for foreign car companies are actually pretty decent for stock. For GM, however, it's just a name slapped on a practically unaltered system. For all the hassle you're going to go through, it will make next to no improvement in overall sound quality.
I'm with Confusingboat. I say sell the speakers and HU for whatever you can. Don't worry about the wiring. There's practically 0 market for converting to Bose since most people feel it's junk/not worth it. The buyer(s) will most likely be looking to replace a busted HU/speakers, so the wiring most likely won't be needed. Take the money you get, and put it towards some half way decent aftermarket speakers. If you shop around a bit, you can find a good deal on decent new speakers. Or keep a look out in the For Sale section here for good deals on decent used, good condition audio equipment.
