How are you guys wiring the doors with new speaker wire? If i remember, there is a connecter in the door jam, so are you guys drilling holes in the connecter and running the wire through that? Still dont have the funds yet for some door speakers. Just tryin to figure out for when i do. Pics are appreciated to.

its a very large grommet that you can fit wire through and I think it comes in behind the kick panel but I haven't tried it yet.

good luck :)

Basically, yes.

I didn't do speakers, but I did window modules in each door. I had to run 4 wires into each door, and that's what I did.

It's just time consuming and a little PITA.

I thought it was only the rear doors that have molex plugs on them. The front doors have a plastic piece that clips to the body of the truck, but you can still run wires through it without drilling.

Here's what I used to run the wires from my crossovers to my doors, http://cgi.ebay.com/SOUND-QUEST-HOM...1e58250df7&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14#ht_2996wt_996 , but I hate the company hifisoundconnection, got my wire on time but took a month to send my speakers, even after I told them to cancel the order after I called on the 3rd week. They never cancelled, credit my card and then sent the order. So if you could find it from a diff seller, great.

I ran mine through the rubber grommets using a coat hanger with the wire taped to it and feed it through! It took a little time but not long at all!

You are correct. I should have been more specific.
