im going to assume the door panels are no different from the 98.

you have two screws you need to remove, one in the open door handle ( you will see a little cap over it )
and the second one is in the door handle with the window controls you will also see a little cap in there, both screws are philips
if you want you can slide both of these out now and disconnect the wires from the window control
and you can pop out the metal lever from the door handle be careful not to break the plastic clip
the upper corner to the front of the car is a pastic cap with a plastic stopper in it, you can jsut pop that out with the pastic cap
now you will just pop out the door from there and watch for the wire going to the door light you can just rotate the light housing that is connected to the wire and pop that out
the whole door is held in by snapins just dont pull too hard if you do you could rip the door in half lol

if youre running the wires through the center console you can remove the snap ins and run it under there to the carpet you will want to remove the back seat there is a single bolt about 2 or 3 inches right of center remove that and there are two snap ins at the front of the seat you can peel up most of the carpet to side the power cable under it. Its a little bit of a pain depending on how far you have the carpet pulled back

I was wondering, since you guys were talking about running amp wires, how would you run a wire such as a 4 gauge or bigger without it being seen?

I was wondering, since you guys were talking about running amp wires, how would you run a wire such as a 4 gauge or bigger without it being seen?

What I did for my Daughters '94 was this. I got EFX 4 gauge kit from Crutchfield. Her battery in on passenger side. I ran wire straight up to fire wall and ran it across to drivers side. On drivers side firewall under where OEM wire harness comes thru was thinner piece of metal (easier seen inside when you peel back insulation that was cut out for it). I drill pilot hole then enlarged it to get rubber grommet in. Ran wire thru up over top sterring column to center console. Ran it down center console (had it apart for RCA and remote turn on wires to run) and under carpeting where transmision hump is (I know front wheel drive....). Took out rear seat and ran wires into trunk. Kit came with 17' of wire and I had about 2 1/2' to spare. I have box right up aganst back seat. I know your supposed not to mix power with signal wires but I did anyway and apprently everything is shielded well as I hear no hmm thru subs. Rest of speakers are powered off of deck.

Hope this helps?
