You have some good information from posting this thread. But I wouldn't count on the OEM woofer being a dual voice coil driver, as you questioned by noticing that the two wires were connected to one terminal.

OEM systems are a PITA! Period. Try to upgrade them, try to work with their goofy engineering, and hate yourself in the morning. Replacement of all OEM system components is the best and easiest solution, including running new speaker wires to your new components from the amplifier. Tape the ends of the OEM wires and leave them. They have served their purpose long enough. Time to retire.

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.

If your door speaker has four wires connected to it, yes it is possible the second set is connected to the dash tweeter in parallel. However, usually a connection like this does not happen at the speaker, but it is possible. Get out your trusty ohmmeter and run some continuity checks.

Man, I would just take all stock speakers out and put it components in.

Like I had a setup with two 5 1/4" components up front and 6 1/2" in the back.

It sounded real good.

It was a four channel 600 Watt Pioneer Premier Amp and their REV series components.

Going to do the same setup again in my new car def.

I would have been shocked if they were dual voice coils.
