Question - Car Stereo Factory Wiring Route?

Hi All,
Quick question (hopefully). I'm planning on replacing my stereo and think that this is a good time to re-run the speaker cables that I did a 💩 job at running. The previous owner cut the harness off and took the speaker wire (idk why....). I'm ordering a new harness and I'd like to put things back to factory so I have a question (or 2):
  1. Where did the front/rear (mostly rear) speaker wires run originally?
  2. Where is the factory antenna located? Mine's installed at the right rear quarter panel.
Thanks!

Re: Question - Car Stereo Factory Wiring Route?

Antenna gets mounted top the top of the pass side fender, near the windshield.

Front speaker plugs/wiring is part of the Dash harness.

Rear speaker wiring is a separate / independent harness that runs from the radio, to the passenger side kick panel, down the passenger side door sill, then it splits: 1) to the passenger speaker & 2) under the carpet, across the car to the drivers side speaker.
