next...pull the three plugs from the Bose reciever Thumbnail Image
plug these three little jewels into the wire harness Thumbnail Image
Thumbnail Image
start cutting and labeling wires to extend the wire harness. I used about 4ft. MAKE SURE YOU LABEL THE WIRES CORRECTLY BEFORE YOU PULL Thumbnail Image

Then...Pull the wires through to the stereo "hole" and to the new wire harness Thumbnail Image

Connect your labeled wires. Make sure connections are tight and sealed. Thumbnail Image
Next connect the ends of the stereo harness to your pulled wires. Make sure they are secure. Thumbnail Image

after that... I worked on the mounting bracket... Thumbnail Image
Severe "MACGUYVERING" was necessary to make all things fit just right. You will see what I mean when you try. Here are some of the things that I did. They worked for me. Feel free to make improvements as you see fit. Thumbnail Image
A little cardboard to fill the gap and add support since only one mounting bracket screw hole lined up right. Thumbnail Image
I used some styrofoam to make "pillars". This was cut from the styrofoam padding the new reciever in the box. I used two pieces on the left side to hold up the bracket and shelf where there was no screw to mount to... you'll see. Thumbnail Image
