all u really have to do is cut the clip off the attach the wires to the new speakers... http://www.crutchfield.comi think will sell u the clip adaptor so u don't have to cut it off.. i bought speakers from crutchfield and they gave me my adaptors for free.. later

Yep, free adapters from crutchfield.com with speaker purchase. Or you can buy them separately from the same site for about 8 bucks a pair.

Waldo, do you think the blaupunkt is good enough to survive the factory stereo?

it probably could. i installed my speakers in the front only and have a Aiawa head unit that is 45x4. i forget what the speakers are rated at but i am thinking either the speakers are over-rated or the head unit is under rated.

i also like bass with my metal, so that might be it, but i dont think they shoulda gone so fast.

are you using the high level inputs (not RCA) to your amps?
