Default Running wires into a EK Civic Door

Does any have a How-To on running new wiring through the factory rubber wire boot from the dash to the doors? In the past I have used coat hanger or fish tape to do this on other cars, but there just seams to be no room. I dont want to ghetto out and just new holes. I would like to conceal the wiring within the factory bundle.

I am planing on running a heaver gauge wiring for some speaker pods I am building as well as adding some small monitors on an angle to each of the doors, so I will need to run signal and power to these.


Thanks

search the archives and you will find a writeup by me. It's not fun, but it's doable. I've done it two different times in my 00 si. First was a pair of 16ga runs, next was one run of 12 ga. There's no way IMO to run anthing larger then the 4 16ga wires or the two 12 ga with a car with power windows + locks. Now in a manual car, there may be room for more.
