Just A Stupid ??
Ok im not very electronic smart but i took yall's advice and bought the alpine SPS170A and i started trying to hook it up to the front door spot but when i got the monsoon out the thing has a plug on it and the alpine has 2 little prongs on it how do i get this hooked up . im sorry guys i know this is prob an easy fix but i dont have a clue.

If you want to be cheap, then you can cut the wires and add new ends on them so they go on the aftermarket speakers, or you can go the easy route and just buy some speaker adaptors from someplace like best buy or circuit city. They are like 6 or 7 for a pair of speakers. That way, it will adapt the plug to just terminals that are sized for you so that you get the same polarity on all of your speakers.

If your monsoon door speakers are trashed, cut the connectors off of them and solder them up to the Alpines. That way they'll plug right in.
If they are not trashed then I would buy adapters, because the factory monsoon speakers sell for pretty good money.

well ya the front monsoons are still good as far as i know. so what will actually go onto the 2 lil prongs on the alpine? if i bought an adapter? so the adapter will plug straight into the stock plug in?? that the monsoon was hooked to? bc i just unplugged the monsoon and i dont have a soldering tool.

The adaptor will plug right into the plug on the factory wiring, and then you will have two female ends, one smaller and one larger that will slip right over the two terminals that are on your speaker.

not sure of the part number, but any bestbuy or circuit city should have them, as well as many stereo shops
And that link to crutchfield is exactly what i am talking about, but I know that they were cheaper at best buy when i used to work there.
