I just got a stereo setup for my 88... Alpine CDE-9874 reciever, 5x7 Polk Momo rears and 6" Kenwood fronts.

Can I use the original wiring with the stock clips etc.? I also read in another 6" speakers will fit in the fronts with no modifications... Will I need a wiring harness for the Reciever?...

Just wanted to ask the stupid questions before I start putting everything in.

 

Youll want to buy the install kit. Its basically 2 plugs that plug into the factory harness and give you color matched wires to splice into. Not necessary, but it makes everything clean and nice to work with.

Yes the 6 inch will work fine in the front.

No you cant use the stock plugs on the speakers, just cut them off and splice yours in.

 

Thanks. I'm glad i didnt wire them up with those clips if it wont work...

I'm having trouble finding the proper harness kit, can you send a link so I know which one I need?

Walmart has them too. Just look at the back of the box to find your application.

 

Preciate it guys... Got the speakers in today, the polk rears had crossovers I just screwed into the panel near the seatbelt. I'm happy with it so far I'm going to try putting the alpine deck in today aswell, should I post pics?

 

Sure we all love pics.

 

I will post up pics as soon as I'm done. I just finished wiring the harness and there was no ground wire, just curious where did you guys put your ground?
