I have heard about bose wiring causing issues to some people?

Is that just for bose with nav?

or am i going to have issues upgrading my system as well?

Thanks
I have a 2016 Nismo/Bose/Nav.... i don't think the nav matters? That being said I replaced the front/rear/sub speakers and ran all new wiring (keeping the stock head unit), all connected to a JL VX1000/5i and have had no issues, also in case it is not obvious, deleted the factory amp and sub in the trunk with no issue.

here is my final install post:
What did you do with your Z today V (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

one thing to note that i just realized (as i went through many amps in testing.....) is that #4 is wrong so #4 should be:
JL Audio VX1000/5i - 5-channel car amplifier with digital signal processing — 75 watts RMS x 4 at 4 ohms + 600 watts RMS x 1 at 2 ohms
and not: Amplifier - JL Audio RD900/5 - 5-channel car amplifier — 75 watts RMS x 4 at 4 ohms + 500 watts RMS x 1 at 2 ohms

hope this helps....
