I have a 2005 Nissan Altima with Bose system. I would like to install a new system in this vehicle but I can't find any installation instructions on the web. All I need to know is how to remove all the trim to get a new radio/speakers installed. I would also like to know how to remove most of the interrior incase I decided to put down second skin or something similar. Also, are there any good sites to buy replacement trim if needed?

I have been looking on the web for about 2 hours now with no luck. Even Crutchfield doesn't have instructions on this vehicle. Its been out for almost a full year now too.

Any ideas on where to get this info?

I don't care about the Bose system (yes it does have it) I will rewire the system completely and remove all that is Bose! Thats what I did with my Grand Prix, it also had an funny "high end" factory system with external amps.

I was just wondering if anyone had some good sites. I'll post on some Altima sites as well.

its nice when it happens where you can just take out the bose system, but theres a few cars where its actually inegrated with the cars main electrical system. especially when navigation is involved. im not aware of any sites that have a data base of how to disassemble your cars interior, i would def. find an altima site where people have had personal experience
good luck:)

You could buy your speakers and/or amps from a local shop and then hit them up for directions.

Ive done this several times. When I buy a new car and go to buy speakers for the first time, Ill hit the dude up on how best to remove the panels etc. If youre a paying customer they are usually only too happy to point you in the right direction.
