Aftermaket dash speakers without cutting the factory harness
1 Attachment(s)
So Crutchfield sells a harness, Item# 12071042, for the dash speaker. It does not work. It fits the plug that goes to the 3.5 inch speaker but it doesn't work because the sound has to travel through the tweeter plug to get to the 3.5 inch speaker. No idea why they wired it that way.
I was about to splice the wire when I came up with this idea, that worked. I had some 14 gauge house wires laying around. I cut the ground wire into small pieces and bent them into a small horse shoe shape. Then I flattened them out with a hammer. I used them to bypass the tweeter plug so the sound can travel to the 3.5 harness, and then I used the harness from Crutchfield. Hopefully this picture can explain what I did better than I can.
