I heard about this but wasnt sure if i was gonna have to worry about it but sure enough... anyways lol so im putting in my new head unit today and found out i need to do something about my rear door speakers, the harness i got from crutchfield doesnt have the wires for them and neither does the kenwood head unit i got, can i just splice the wires for the rear door speakers into the front speaker wires on the harness thats on the truck? i dont really care if i cant adjust the fade right when its in, as long as they work im fine with that

ok i looked at it again and have more details, the harness in the truck has two light green wires for the rear speakers, the harness crutchfield gave me doesnt have a spot for those neither does the new head unit harness have the wires for it, so if i just cut the wires off the harness in the truck and spliced them back in with the rear door speakers it should work ok right?

hmmm the speakers that dont work arent on there, was there any other stereos besides the bose and the base one? i know its factory though, for now i just wired them into my amp that powers my sub, but its only a mono block amp so they just have bass haha, but atleast it filled the sound in again, at least until i either get them to work with the head unit or just buy a two channel amp for them

I would splice the rear with the front speakers because it works and it wont break. I've had to do that before and it's very easy and just use all the safety precaution so you don't damage your head unit.
