Default 855 rear speaker wiring

Does anyone know where the speaker wires are split between the rear door and D pillar speakers? I just picked-up a component set so I need to find where they run so I can add the crossover - and I really don't want to pull new wires or tear apart the interior looking for it!

If i had to guess, they probably come off the rear factory door speakers. check on the wiring at the speaker, find the color codes there, and trace back.

There's only two wires running to the rear doors, so the split has to be somewhere between them and the HU. Plus, they use the same wire colors from the HU to the rear doors to the D pillar.

According to my manual, spkr wires for left side rear door and D pillar split off at connector 24/3 located inside left dash (near HL switch area) and right side is connector 24/4 located inside rt dash, again near outside edge (toward RF A pillar).

Man, thanks!

Now I just have to crack open the dash?! Jeez, what a slap in the taint! I guess I'll get the speakers in when I repair all my dash lights and install the new instrument panel.
