Q: anyone out there know which wires feed the speakers in this trck id rather not have to remove the door panels and be able to connect the speakers currently installed under the dash. i can go on and explain why but i figured id try to get a quick simple answer first. and yes...i did consider selling the truck and buying one that already had the speakers connected. ^ -- ------------------------------------------ laszlo almasi ----cool toys formerly carolina watercraft works ----mack daddy trailers ----ice angels .

well i had an aftermarket system installed a while back with 5 amps and all....long story short...sold the truck...bought it back for less than i sold it for and the tranny got rebuilt and the radiator replaced...but the guy took the amps and crossovers...but left the seperates in place. sooo.....i was able to take the speaker mounted amps and hooked up my speakers in place of the oem units. it ended up being easier than i thought and now i can have some tunes. problem now is that getting some music back albeit no where near as good as the system i installed i do have radio cd too but now im reminded that raleighs radio stations suck. lol -- ------------------------------------------ laszlo almasi ----cool toys formerly carolina watercraft works ----mack daddy trailers ----ice angels carolina watercraft works wrote anyone out there know which wires feed the speakers in this trck id rather not have to remove the door panels and be able to connect the speakers currently installed under the dash. i can go on and explain why but i figured id try to get a quick simple answer first. and yes...i did consider selling the truck and buying one that already had the speakers connected. ^ why not just buy a wire harness from your local car stereo shop about $10 and just plug it in no splicing and all wire functions are labeled for you. .
