mounting crossovers/front speaker boot
I am going to mount my crossovers under the center seat and need to get the speaker wire out of the cab , into the door....I'm a novice at this and it seems that there is no room to go through the existing boot??? Any help would be appreciated..

Some had the Harting plug which is a molded rectangular push in plug w/a lock or a simple rubber boot.
If its the basic rubber boot then you should have enough for at least 2-4 wires (if not more) depending on what options you have on your door.
In my experience i've had to use some wire pulling lubricant while fishing especially "tight" wires around the door.

So I assume you don't have the typical rubber boot but the connector that looks to plug into the door?
You should have enough room if you have the boot. Simply fish a piece of coat hanger or fishtape (if you have it) through the passage. Then attach your wires in a staggered form on the wire then gently pull.
If you have the connector then you may end up having to add a set of pins and a section of wire(s) within the connector if you have the space.
