edit: the wires for the front right speaker is on the last harness from the front of the car ( non ML btw). White (+) and Red (-). Hope this helps.
Does anyone know which connector is for the left front speakers

Which connectors should I be looking for.. I know the last connection is for the right front speaker but which one is for the left side

Slammer that makes a ton of sense! ive seen guys even mount them there but had to cut as i imagine the stock sub is reasonable for its size anyways.

could u post a picture of how you wired it up to your speakers? My amp is wired up the same and I can’t find anything showing which wires are for what. I’m trying to wiring up my aftermarket jbl amp for my speakers and second aftermarket jbl amp for my clarion sub

I’m useless with electrical!! Please help me

could u post a picture of how you would wire up my speakers? My amp wiring harnesses are not like all the others I’ve found. I’m trying to wiring up my aftermarket jbl amp for my speakers and second aftermarket jbl amp for my clarion sub
