Installing rear speaker wires

Postby Burnage on Wed Jun 14, 2006 9:11 pm

Hi,

I've just put in some rear speakers, as my Fiesta didn't come with any :( and I am looking to wire them up. Where do people tend to put wires running to the headunit? Is it possible to put them where the original ones would/should be (mine hasn't got any)? If so where is this? Or is a different way favoured?

Many thanks!

If you've got an ISO adapter on the headunit, there should be a couple of wires which don't go anywhere, can't tell you what colours they are though sorry and solder/crimp onto those

You could run the wires under the kicker trims either side then up the side of the parcel shelf supports to the speakers.

Well, that's what I'd do anyways :)

if you have an ISO adapter cut the green, greeen/black and the purple, purple/ black wires.

these are you left and right rear the black ones being your negative. just crimp on some speaker wire and run it to the back on the car.
