I installed new 6x9's in the front door today and wanted to post my steps on the install. I know that other members have posted their installs, but I wanted to show how I did the wiring. I first did a search on the forums to find out which wires were negative, and which were positive in the factory harness.
Hertz DCX-690 3-way 6x9s.
So, here it is.
Clipped off the factory plug and installed bullet connectors-
My homemade pigtail assembly-
Pigtail assembly connected to the proper terminals on speaker-
speaker installed with factory hardware-
Speaker cover back in place-
Another view of cover where you cannot tell that the speakers are not original-
After I completed the install I put my Alan Parsons gold CD in the player and checked it out. The highs are amazing and the music is so much clearer and sharper than stock speakers.
The gold plated CD really showcases musical clarity and these speakers brought it out.
Now I need to do the back ones. I faded back and forth and the back factory speakers really do not do the singers voice justice.
