Speaker Help please Ok 2 weeks ago my drivers side sail panel speaker blew while the wife was driving Red... (bad wife 
)
I asked around for replacements and a guys said he had some,
I get them and tonight I get ready to put them in.
This is where the "However ," comes in.
The ones he sent me are a single voice coil with 2 wires in the connector and are 2 ohms.
I pull mine out and it is a dual voice coil with 4 wires in the connector, and it is 4 ohms.
both of them were GM paper type speakers.
Now, did I get the wrong ones sent to me, or has mine been changed.. OR are they different due to year?
Heck if I knew they were 4 ohm, I would have just went after market, the reason I wanted stock was the 2 ohm system.
ANY info that can clear this up would be appreciated,
Pete

That is odd, I can see a difference in the verts and hard/T-tops.... but not any others.
The part number off of it did not cross to any info I could find, but the number is 10447249

My two cents -- -- -- If he sent you a 2ohm speaker single coil, sounds like a monsoon speaker. If you were running a 4 ohm speaker with two coils, sounds like a non-monsoon speaker. . . If I still had my monsoons I would check the numbers for you. Sorry.

The stock Monsoon speaker in the T/A sail panels had dual voice coils. One 2 ohm, the other 4 ohm (weird, I know). The Camaro stock Monsoon speaker had a single 2 ohm voice coil.
Killer wanted the T/A speaker and bought the Camaro speaker by mistake.
