It sounds to me like you have an Infinity amp in your vehicle. You cannot change the 6x9's in these vehicles with the Infinity sound system unless you install a new radio also. In these vehicles the radio powers the tweeters and rear speakers with low power and the amp that is strapped on the back of each 6x9 powers it with high power. I have never seen rear speakers with 2 pairs of wire going to them. but it should not pose a problem. Just use a speaker harness on it and you will be fine. Metra part# 72-4500.

Yes, if you change the speakers, you have to change the radio also. A speaker harness is a plug that will go into your factory plug and give you two wires out for your aftermarket speakers with a positive and negative terminal already on it. Unfortunately we do not have a picture on our website, but if you have a Best Buy near you, they most likely will have one for you to look at. It makes the job easy as there is no splicing and no guessing whats positive or negative.
