Originally it started off that the bass speaker in the passenger door would cut in and out and it was suspected it was the voice coil in the speaker. I replaced the bass speaker with a brand new Audison one but it was still cutting out. Then it was far more out than in and then mid speaker above the bass has cut out as well so I only have the dash tweeter.
I've just changed the head unit from a Halfords Sendai unit to a Mercedes Audio 10 (2nd hand obviously but from an audio refurbisher fully checked and working) as I wanted an original looking dash, not bothered too much about Bluetooth etc.
So having eliminated the possibility of it being the speaker or head unit a process of elimination says it must be the wiring to the speakers. So short story long is it feasible to attach a new length of wire to the old one at the speaker end and pull it through to the head unit, or vice versa, or will I have to strip out half the dash to feed the wires through, I don't really want to bodge it and just shove it under the carpet in the foot well.
