Mazda 3 Bose - help

Hi!

I am a new mazda3 owner (I've just bought a 2004 mazda3 1.6).
I LOVE this car, but the original audio disappointed me.

I've seen Bose systems on ebay (amplifter, speakers, bass,tre), but i am not sure how its possible to install that system (originally it was installed into an Mazda3 MPS) into my car..

I have TE line (the head unit contains only Radio with 4 speakers)

Is it possible to install the bose system to every mazda3 ? Please help me in this question.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

the bose system is not the most ideal sound set up. it is proprietary wiring and a lot of users complain about its lack of depth. have you heard of the saying "no highs, no lows...?" however it is a step up from stock. i dont have experience transporting a bose system into a regular setup but i assume as long as the speaker sizes are the same and it comes with all the wiring then it can be done.

bear333, you'll need a line out converter (LOC) and you won't have to give up the changer or your controls. connect the wires with the speaker outputs in the factory radio, then run RCA stereo cables from the LOC to the amplifier.
