He had a car with Bose, and let a pro switch it out. Apparently, the wiring is done in a screwy way and there is some sort of separate amp operation at each speaker that complicates things even more.

All Bose hardware is like that. There is a Bose outlet right by my house and when I was setting up my surround system I was seriously considering one of theirs. The demo units sounded fantastic - starting at $1600. As I got into the details with the sales guy, though, it got even less viable. Half the logic processing was in the receiver - the other half in the sub. You can't swap one without swapping the other. The speakers come through the sub, not the receiver, and they have some processing in them as well (though it may have been amplification, can't remember now) making them unswappable with other pieces. Really nasty stuff in terms of upgradeability.

Best advice: take your car to a stereo install place (a real one - not Best Buy). They'll give you an estimate.

It might be better to buy a new head unit at a place that offers free installation. Sell the one you want to put in, sell the original, and you come out close to even.
