   For Xmas, I bought my Fiance an amplified "Bazooka" for her 2003 Sedona.  After spending an hour attempting to tear into the rear quarter interior panels to get to the back speaker wires, I gave up.  I didn't want to tear down the entire interior trim just to get to the speaker wires, and take a chance on destroying the retaining clips.
   I pulled up the carpet in back, and found what looks like a main wiring harness running in a channel down the center of the floorboard.  I'm "HOPING" that the rear speaker wire pairs run down that harness... would make life so much easier to tap the Bazooka into!  ;]  Anyhow, I was wondering if anyone had any info on this, or might be able to point me to a Sedona audio wiring
schematic?

Thanx in advance and have a SAFE New Year!

Looking for someone who can tell me the wire colors (& location) of the speakers on a 2003 Kia Sedona.   Maybe someone that has purchased new speakers (rear specifically) from Crutchfield that included the speaker harness adapters they usually include?   Trying to connect a "Bazooka" with minimal tear-down of interior panels.  ;]

Thanx in advance and have a SAFE New Year!

The radio comes out pretty easily.

There is a screw behind the ash tray, then the wood grain/shifter trim pops off and from there just pull the screws that hold the radio in.

That's definately useful info, but I just need to tap into the right/left REAR speaker wires so I can connect an amplified Bazooka subwoofer in the back of my gals van. (using the HI-level inputs as source)

 I'm hoping Kia ran those wires down that center "channel" under the carpet in the back, so I don't have to destroy her interior panels trying to get to those 2 rear speakers, to make a "local" connection for the Bazooka.  ;]

Thanx,

Jim
