Stereo Help Needed
I am replacing my factory speakers and need to know which speaker wire is the +\- for each location. I do not have the premium system. Thanks!

Do the "pop" test. Using a AA battery, connect the leads to the battery. The + one will pop the speaker cone out, the - one will pop the cone in.

Play the radio and hook a meter to it, if it says - you know your terminals are backwards.

On the front doors the wires with the yellow trace are positive. On the rear the wires with the light green trace are positive.
