Refer to the following pages for the vehicle specific instructions for wiring connections. Wiring connections vary per vehicle. Please note that
there are (2) different wiring harnesses included, and the instructions for each harness will be listed.
If it’s uncertain whether the vehicle contains a specific speaker or not, test the wires with a tone generator, or check to see if the factory wires
