I just used the original wires, you should be able to follow them to the headunit, you can then wire up amp from there.

i did the same as steve, but if you want to use better speaker cable, thread it throught the rubber tubey bit by the door hinges. will be a tricky job tho!

I drilled new holes into the doors just below the main connector thing that holds the original wires and then taped the new speaker cables up to protect them
Check that the door will close proeprly as well and that the speaker cables wont get trapped
You could also just cut into the exisiting cables that run through into the doors and connect the components this way

I drilled new holes near the bottom of my doors.Just make sure you know that there is nothing you are going to hit inside the door.If you have a look under the carpet near the bottom of your dash there is a holes with a rubber gommet,i made a hole in the gommet and ran the wires through that and drilled the hole in my door at the same height.
