Above the passengers left foot, under the dash, there is a massive empty spot there.
Could easily fit 10 cross overs if you wanted. I've double sided taped mine there. Or there is a ton of room over the drivers left foot, behind the plastic bits of the dash. |

You can. It is the biggest C*** of a job you will ever find, but its doable. I was tempted to take the doors off to make it easier.
If you have access to a 10yo kid with small hands, it is advisable to use him. If not, go abduct one! I s**t you not. Anyways, that square plug is just clipped on the pillar. If you press down at the 12 and 6 o'clock position on the plug, it will release the clips and the thing will pop off. Then you'll need to remove the loom from the door (so unplug it from everything), pull out the grommet from the door and pull the entire loom out. Then you can pull the loom from the A-pillar and you'll eventually get to a plug that comes out the pillar. So you can disconnect it. When you look at that black plug, you'll see gaps you can feed speaker wire through then force it through the rubber grommet into the door side. Then just put it all back in as you took it out. The B-series have alike a double skinned A pillar. There is a 10mm gap between skins, so running a cable through any other area I found is nearly impossible. |

Good luck and god bless.
 Getting the loom out and apart is pretty easy. Its putting it back together and getting the grommet in the door properly is the hassle. So be patient and don't kick the car like I did.

running wires through the door grommet on a ba/bf falcon is like making a three layered sandwich.
as for the cross-over there is a solid piece of foam in the door that can be cut so you can fit the cross-over box in there |

If your going to the trouble of running new wires and pulling the door grommets, just buy terminals and plug them into the exisiting speaker plugs in the doors and run the wires back into the cabin.
Or you can cut the wires that run into the door and tap in there. You can't get to the plug behind the ICC, nor is there room to store anything behind it. |

Your other choice is this, and what I did to my s**t:
http://www.asllogistics.com/catalog/Add-an-Amplifier-using-Low-Level-Output-p-28.html These guys put a 4 or 5 channel low level output thingy onto your ICC. Being you have a Typhoon, it would be 5 channel, so you'd get the mono sub channel too. Plus you get a proper amp trigger. Something you wont get with the factory setup. |

I took mine in to them and it was done in an hour or so.
I think they have some sort of overnight service. So send today and get back Thursday. But I believe you can still run the car without the ICC. Need to plug in the BEM to make car work, just wont have any climate or audio. You'll see when you pull the ICC out, everything separates. Its many pieces screwed to a plastic front. |
