    I can’t figure out what wires to connect to my cd player. I think I know what the speakers are, but I can’t figure out witch wire is for the power and negative. I need some schematics

    Where is your testlight? No installs without testlight, it is the rule.

    Brown is ground, white is power antenna.

    You need to run new speaker wire to get full power from your new deck.

    Welcome to R3V. Did I see your car on Pioneer Parkway (springtucky) last night?

      On almost all head units, Black is ground, Yellow is switched power and Red is constant power. Then the speaker wires should be Grey, white green and purple, sets of two wires with one having a black stripe (negative). Then there should be a blue wire that connects to either your power antenna or the on input of an amplifier. Hope that helps!

      By the way, welcome to the forum!

        Oh, wow, you just posted as I did. You also made me realize, redbmw, did you want wiring diagrams for the stock wiring or for your new stereo you are putting in? I posted for the stereo.

            Hey man..fuck that. Get a decent deck in so you can turn it up and drown out the noise. That is the R3V way. Live it!

            Hey Josh, is your deck still working in the Vulva?

                  to test which wire on the speaker is the positive or negative, use a 9V battery and connect it to the speaker. if it moves towards the outside then you have pos and neg in the right position, if you haven them inverted the speaker will move inward (towards the big magnet in the back)

                  run NEW speaker wire dud should be easy and for the love of god Make use of your tweeters unless you like NOT listening to music. you can fit a speaker in each door too, look online for wiring instructions becuase most head units have direct connections for only 4speakers and then there's tricks you should know
                  No more e30s for me.
