Alright, here comes a question you will probably all just laugh at, but I really need help installing my new speakers.  They just arrived today.  Kicker k525, 5.25" speakers.  I am replacing the 2 factory speakers in my 1987 Nissan Pulsar.  The 2 speakers are located in the rear.  I have just took photo's of all I think was nessasary.

Here is an overview of everything that came in the package.

And here are the close up's of the cables I recieved.  I have a second cable identicle to this one.

Here is the right side of the speaker (well I guess it depends which way you hold it, but it's one side of the speaker)

Here is the oppisite side of the speaker

And last but not least here is the rear shelf of my 87 Pulsar

Now all I need to do is replace the speaker. Seems simple enough.  But I have not had one bit experience with electronics, let alone car audio.  So if some one, or a few of you could give me a simple step by step on how to install my speakers I would really appreciate it.

dude the speaker leads on the wire that came with the speakers go like this the big connecter which should be on the gray wire is your positive and the other the negative. on your car the left rear positive wire is the red and the green is the negitive and on the right rear the (+) is the blue and the (-) is the pink use butt connectors, solider or crimp caps to connect the wires together.

Thanks for your help guys, I managed to do everything myself in an afternoon.  I sottered the wires together.  On and I found out that the pulsar doesn't come with 5.25's in the rear, so I was a little stuck.  I did however manage to make my own holes and just squeeze the speakers in.  I think the stock speakers where 5" even. 

Now for replacing the door speakers.  6.5's, just another adventure. :)

Thanks again you guys.
