How to Wire Front Door Speakers?

I am installing new speakers in my 93 Camry connected to an amp. I don't know how to connect the two together. The stock was a 6 1/2" with a tweeter above with separate wire plugs. Is there anyway to run the speaker wire between the door and the cabin? How do I do this? The hole for the rubber accordian deal is filled with wires. I don't see how I'd be able to get it through.

you could splice the wire right before it goes into the door, assuming the wire into the door is large enough to handle the power you want. youd have to run two wires that way, but its easier over all


also like to add this is deff. the laziest way possible to do this and i wouldnt do it to my car, but it is one way.

I assume you already have the door and the inside of the door jam taken apart here and have the wires run from the amp to near the door.

Pull or push the rubber tube so that it's comes out of the door and the door jam. It should be completely in the gap and just hanging by the wires. Go inside the car and look for where the wires from the door connect to the car. There will be one ore more wiring harness that you can unclip. Once you have the wires unclipped, push the wires out so that they are hanging in the gap from the hole in the door.

Run the speaker wire through the hole that the other wires ran through and then into the gap. Slide the wire through the rubber tube and then into the door along with the other wires. Use zip ties to hold the new wire to the pre-existing wires so it doesn't accidentally catch something that moves.

Now put the wires that you unplugged back and push the rubber tube back into the door and the door jam.

Don't be lazy and use a clothes hanger. It's a pain in the butt method that doesn't work well, if at all. In my Gen 4.5, I dunno how many holes I poked in the rubber.

Alright this is how i did it.
First remove that kick panel that covering up the wiring right next to your foot.

Second you will see plugs. 2 of those plugs go through to the car into the door. Unplug those those.

Next the rubber thing, in the door. You gotta pull on it and get it to pop out. U need to do this on both sides.

Next pull the 2 plugs out of the car.

Now slide up the rubber thing.

Not take your wire and run it with all those wires. Then tape it to all the wires as close as you can to the rubber thing u pull up.

Now slide the rubber thing back down, over the wires and the wire you taped on.

From there you can now pull your speaker wire to get the rest through the rubber thing.

Then just pull that cable and the 2 plugs back into the car. And re put the rubber thing in place.
