Does anyone have info on the wiring setup for the bose setup, there are wires that are uncounted for in the info from the site. Any infor would be appreciated. I do not have the old bose radio so no testing and seeing which wire does what. Thanks in advance.

I guess no one around has knowledge of the bose wiring. There are 5 wires from my count that are not counted for: three of which are on the bigger connector: GREEN / WHITE; black and a BLACK/ red one. the black one is thicker than the rest of the wires.

the other two are on the smaller connector: black and a GREEN/ YELLOW wire.

I am assuming the thick black wire is the ground wire to the car. Not sure, and I think the other wires might be amp controls or anntena controls or dimmer. I can try to take a picture of the connector but the wires are not long, they are like only 1/4 inch long.

Go Here https://www.installdr.com/QuickWiring.html Check the link for Nissan..it is an adobe acrobat PDF file.

I know what you are talking about.. I own a maxima and an infiniti J30 which uses that same connector.. Buy the metra nissan harness here: https://www.metraonline.com/product.aspx?sku=70-1763

Hopefully that helps..
