Default you can probably get an adapter harness for your sony...

you won't need to delve into the wiring that way

Default Call Crutchfield....

You will need what's called a Low to High pass adapter. The Bose soundsystem (speakers) operate on a different ohm level than typical car audio gear, so you will need the adapter for it to sound properly.

Call Crutchfield for harness and adapter. Should have a kit that plugs right into the factory harness (don't want to cut any factory wires!) and should be plug and play.<ul><li><a href="http://www.crutchfield.com/S-unGiSyLECZT/">Crutchfield.com</a></li></ul>

Default the bose amps accept the preamp outputs of the an aftermarket headunit.

that is the path most people take or they replace all the speakers.

search for post by crapple.
