Answer
Hi Tony,

The Bose system in your car likely uses a 'common ground' for its speakers, and carries the speaker signal on wires that look like regular amplified speaker wires, but are actually pre-amps.  You'll need a product like:

to be able to hook your aftermarket deck up to the factory amplifiers.
