    How do I get speaker wire into this speaker?

    Oh just kidding...I just checked the box and it comes with short amounts of speaker wire with the proper terminals, yea I'm an idiot. Anyways, the wire it gave seems to be like 22 gauge, if I'm using 16 gauge wires, wouldn't these defeat the purpose? Because even if the majority of the wire is...

    How do I get speaker wire into this speaker?

    K so it's probably a really basic question, but how do I get the speaker wire into my speakers? Heres a picture, I circled the parts that are labeled + and -, and right below them is a small hole circled in green. I'm guessing you just poke the speaker wire through that hole? Or is that not...

    Tools and Materials?

    But if I use a 9-wire then that'll cut the wires from the stock sub and dash tweeters, which I'd like to keep wired to my stock HU, seems easier to just get the speakers wired directly to the amp

    Tools and Materials?

    It's an 08 Civic Si, and by pre-amo signal do you mean a romote wire? I figured I'd just use an accessory wire 'cause apparently the stock HU doesn't have one

    Why did my fuse blow as I drove over a speed-bump?

    I have a 60A fuse on a 8 gauge power wire, and today it blew up I was driving over a speed bump diagonally, and then the music stopped, when I got home I checked out the amp, which was fine, then I popped the hood and saw my fuse was shattered. It was jaggedly broken in half. the speedbump...

    Do wire harness adapters exist for After-market harnesses?

    oh i meant like, disconnect the speaker wire harness from the HU then from that point run them to the amp, it'd take a lot of re-wiring to get them from their door/roof locations to the amp right?

    Do wire harness adapters exist for After-market harnesses?

    I have 4 speakers wired to an after-market HU, and I believe the wire harness is in place is an after-market harness. Now I wanna wire the speakers to an amp for more power I was talking to some dude who worked at BestBuy and he said that cause it's not the original harness, I'm stuck w/...
