That will really depend on how tightly zip tied the old cable is, to the rest of the loom!

| Post subject: | 1997 Horizon RX - Running new speaker wire |
As the heading might suggest, I am looking to run new speaker wire from the head unit to the speakers located at each stern seat. I have removed the starboard bow seat back and see that all the wiring goes down under the deck in a PVC looking pipe. I am not sure where this comes out however. I can feel that the speaker wire goes up and around some loops in the rear but I can't feel or see where they go. Can anyone please tell me where the wires are running under the deck (hull area) so that I might be able to snake some new wire back through there? Thanks |

The wiring conduit should come out on the starboard side of your bilge area, behind your fuel tank. Unless you're running a 30+Wrms amplifier, you stock (un-corroded) wiring will be more than sufficient for your head unit's power. |

I might give that a try. I ended up checking my wires and it seems it was just a miswire at the head unit that was just replaced. All seems well now but I might try new wire one of these days if it keeps up or turns out to be corroded. Thanks for replying |

Is it at all possible to tie the new wire to the old one and pull it through? |
