Hello,

I am looking for the wiring diagram for a 2016 Mazda 6. It would be great to get the wiring diagram for both the standard 6 speaker sound system and the 11 speaker Bose sound system.

I am going to be looking into installing a subwoofer into a 2016 Mazda 6 and would like to know what wires do what and know where any amps are in each of the different sound systems.

Let me know if you need any additional information.

Thanks in advance!

Thank you very much for the information. I am guessing that the standard sound system does not have any amplifier and has wires going straight from the head unit straight to each of the speakers? Also, the Bose sound system then has wires going from the head unit to the amplifier that is under the passenger seat then out to each of the speakers?

Again, thank you for the information.
