Default stereo wiring for sc300 and speaker sizes

For a sc300 without a nak system the amp output colors are on the small plug.
they are as follows:
Right/front blue - Turquoise +
Left/front Purple - pink +
Right/rear White - Red +
Left/rear yellow - black+

hope this helps anyone rewiring for aftermarket amps
oh and by the way anyone wanting to do bigger speakers in the doors or rear area. Relatively any 6 1/2 should work fine. there is plenty room in the doors. You'll just have to fabricate something.

so...correct my if im wrong bc im about to do the swap right now.
What im gathering is that in order to put in an aftermarket deck that bypasses the factory amps and wires the speakers directly off the aftermarket deck, I should hook my alpine's harness directly to those wires comming off output of the factory amp?

I'm glad to see my flash file is still in use after all these years.

Yes, to bypass those amps you will want to run from the HU wires (use the existing stock ones from the schematic), then if your removing the OEM amp you can splice the stock HU wires to the wires from the amp.

Or, I'd just run new wires. It's not that hard and you can up the gauge.

not stock, they are 4"

5.25" fit down into the rear deck with no modifications though. you just have to remove the black housing and screw them into the deck.
