New member Username: RcullanPost Number: 1 Registered: Jul-04 | I have a friend whom I am helping out... He has a 2004 Chevy Cavalier. He has a pair of Boston Acoustic 6x9't that he wants to put in place of the chevy stock 6x9's. I took out the stock 6x9's and found that there is 4 wires running to the stock speakers. I am assuming 2 for the woofer and 2 for the tweeter. We tried wiring it a couple different ways to no avail. I really dont know which wires go to what on this damn thing. Can someone please enlighten me. I have been looking online for hours, the car's manual says crap. Driving me nuts! Thanks in advance, Cullan |

Anonymous | Oh my God. i have the exact same problem you documented, my friend wanted me to help her put in rear speakers and subs, but i got to the point of re routing the factory wires, picked the tow i thought went to the woofer, and hooked em up. but i didn't work, so i have been looking for them ever since, because i never finished the install. now i can. thanks very much |

Unregistered guest | I just paid my 99 chevy cavalier off in full and I am now looking to invest the car note into the car. I do not know where to start as far as what kind of speakers I will need to put in it. I am getting a new 52 watt CD player installed in it tommorrow and I will soon need to upgrade my speakers for a reasonable price. ANY SUGESSTIONS? |
