Default Changing our 6X9 speakers on 2003 Alero

Hey there,

Just wondering about how to wire in new 6X9's in my car. The stock speakers have 4 wires and the aftermarket has 2. How do I go about wiring these in??

Thanks, Randal

Just use one of the positive and one of the negitives. Tape off the other two.

Huh. Thats all I did and it worked. What speakers are you using? Do you have the factory amp?

Hey All,

I tried this in my 2001 and here is what I found out. If you have the Monsoon version of the sound system it has factory amp installed. You can not put after market speakers in with out bypassing the amp. I ended up ording and installing factory speakers..
