Found the problem with my factory stereo... It wasn't a blown amp in the headunit, each of the speaker cones was deteriorated. With that said, I'll be installing new amp, speakers and applicable wireing. I'm confident in the setup and mechanics of what I'm installing. However, any advice on the easiest way to run speaker wire from the starboard storage compartment, in front of the helm, to the port side, would be greatly appreciated.

It appears that I can pull the panel that's just in front of the helm, and start fishing from speaker hole, to speaker hole. However, I'm not sure of it's easier to get to the port side via the bow (going around the anchor locker didn't seem too easy for access), or go to the engine compartment to make the loop.

Also, can I attach wire clips to the stringers going forward and aft? I want to put as much space between the power wire and speaker wires as possible and also reduce strain between each section.

Lastly, it appears the factory ran RCA's and accessory wire from the glove box, down through the ski locker to... Somewhere. Can anyone verify that they terminate in that starboard storage compartment in from the of helm?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks! How do I make the turn at the anchor locker? Seems pretty well buttoned up.

No, I hadn't published my initial problem. More of an out loud thought.
