ok thats simple, but where do the wires from the speakers plug into on the cd player?

the car should have a ISO plug attache to the back, the speaker wires should be connected to their

sorry, dont have a picture to show you what i mean

its quite easy

so if i buy a set of new speakers they will have wires attached that i can plug into this iso plug and the iso will have a space for the extra wires?

u got the original headunit?

some speakers come wit cables some dont so need to check or get some

simple as plug and play (some solderin may be required ;P )

yeah ive got the orginal unit, is this needed for something here? ive replaced it for a sony

dude, just buy your new speakers and u will get 2 speakes, and 2 cables with push-connectors on one end. These simply push onto the pins on the speakers and the other end pushes into the ISO connector behind your stereo. U dont need the original stereo, the sony unit will have the same ISO connection. It really is very easy, the hardest part is routing the cables but even thats not brain surgery!! any probs just PM me.

one last silly question, what does an iso coneection looklike?

 

[tick]

how many slots in the iso will the new speakers take up, ive two empty slots is ths enough?
