front speaker replacement I think I blew a front speaker.
As I understand it, these door speakers have a 2ohm bass set of wires coming from the amp and a 4 ohm signal for the tweeters coming straight from the deck.
Assuming I got a set of 2 ohm infinitys, how do I wire this? Can I splice the 4 wires together into 2 and hook up to conventional speakers?

Can you use these same speakers in the sail panels (obviously with the tweeter disabled)?

Just did this I just today installed infinity 6022i's in the front to replace the blown stock speakers. They bolt right into the "cans" that mount to the door and I think they can be mounted in the sails too. So assuming the 62.7s have the same mounting specs you should be able to use them in the sails. I probably should have gone for the 62.7s because I had to cut the wires for the tweeter and splice them to the factory harness I cut from the old speakers. There's not a lot of wire to work with so I used butt splicers, which worked well. They do sound good. Although a lot brighter than I'm used to, I am pleased. I also checked the sail speakers and found that the right is completely dead, no sound at all. I wondered why it wasn't fuzzy anymore!?!? Anywho looks like I get to replace them now
The link above is also a good write-up and there is some great wiring info on Monsoon faqs page.

Got the 62.7s in. WHAT A DIFFERENCE! I didn't realize what crap those stock fronts were until now. Thanks for the help guys. The instructions on that link were perfect. Only took about an hour.
