4 speaker to 7 speak radio

Has anyone with the 4 speak stearo pulled the upper dash pad to see if there was wiring back there for the 3 dash speakers?

Take it for what it's worth but the dealer told me that the wires are not there. I upgraded to the 6cd stereo when I bought my 06 Megacab. They told me that along with the three extra speakers comes an amp. when installed at the factory.

That's what I was told by the dealer,no wires. I checked at at radio shop & they're going to put some in for about $75. They said it really makes a big difference.

There aren't any wires there, the 7 speaker system has a factory amp. You could install speakers and run wires but if your using a radio to run them all the impedence will be off and you could damage your radio so be carefull.

DUH!

Yes, I know center, are you saying the Infinity sound is 7.1 surround? I don't think so
