Easiest way to get speaker wire in the door ...
The truck is a 2016. We did a JL Fix and Twk, Arc Amps, Focal highpass speakers and JL TW3 subs ( 2- 10" )
I knew that bigger,wire was needed in the doors for the midrange, so this I what I came up with.
The doors of these trucks come off REALLY easy. A 10mm in the bottom of the top hinge , a 10mm in the top of the bottom hinge and a 10mm for the limit strap, un plug the molex door connector, a few extra hands to guide it off, Not even 10 minutes...

Maybe I've been out of the game too long, but 25+ years ago this was done when there was no room for more wire in the existing boot. Not sure if I'd call this "different", but perhaps everything is cyclical.

I added this to my 2014 XLT while switching out my speakers and did not upgrade my wires... zero issues. https://www.amazon.com/Precision-Pow.../dp/B005KVEPVO

If you're trying to bring mid range and tweeters into the door with an active setup, it's really the only need to bring new wires into the door. Generally speaking, mids in the doors with tweeters(and fullranges if you want) up on the pillars or on the dash is going to sound the best.
