Awesome, simple vid! Thanks for posting.

I honestly had no clue how the door panels on these came off. Haha so this was a huge help.

Yeah great post. Next time I am at the salvage yard I will have to search and see if I can find some of those wiring adaptors for the speakers.

I'm not sure, which is why I spent the $10 for the adapter. Its $10 for both sides. The adapter has slide on connectors, but one is different size than the other so you wont accidentally switch them.

They will be labeled on the speaker probably, just gotta find out which is + and - on the truck end.
