Speaker Connectors Needed

I would like to use some of the OEM style speaker connectors. Can we get these anywhere? The OEM speakers have these built-in to their enclosures, so ripping them off wouldn't be my first choice. I guess I just need the female connectors. The ones for the front and the ones for the rear. Should I not mess with that and just get some sort of universal connectors?

I wouldn't mess with it . My speakers have screw terminals on them[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]. Also IMHO don't use back speakers. I wasted $200 on rear fill and don't even use them.

What do you mean don't use back speakers? Not to replace the stock ones? Too late! [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

Hey Gray checked out your members page just curious what 6x9's you had and system you have. Those Pioneers are the second pair I had in my car the first were Infinity Refrence I ended up with Eclipse 83941, there the best 6x9's I've ever had that I never listen to[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]. Any way just wanted to say I like your ride I wish mine looked that good.

Thanks. Yeah, my Premiers aren't too bad. I've seen ones out now with better specs and a lower price, but I've enjoyed mine for quite a while now. I love the highs and lows. Mids kinda suck though. I might get mids and fir them in the door panels. That's in the future though. I'm happy with what I have now. Well, maybe a headunit or a custom computer would top off my audio for now. We'll see... Hey, you should see my car from the side though, I need rims! [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

i have the plugs you need sittin in my garage [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] cause i got some infinity components from crutchfield and they always send plugs so you don't have to cut any wires. I didn't use them cause there is no way i would ever use factory wiring. Its not hard to run new wire and its a cheap DIY.

You think I should run new wire instead? I guess that makes sense. What guage should I use? Is there a certain formula based on wattage? Can I attach that new wire to the stock headunit easily? Are there some kind of screw terminals back there? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]
