I'm connecting up some 6x9s for a friend but she wants to keep the standard tape headunit, i know how to connect the wires up the speaker end but how do i connect the other end into the headunit? will there be socket to plug into or can i wire them directly into the loom?

Cheers, james

What tape hu is it, a std manufacturer one??

If it is it'l be like 2w rms and NEVER power 6x9's properly.
Either change the hu for a better tape one (if she likes tapes) or get an amp.

hmm, u can do it, but dont expect it to sound good at all.

If u r gonna do it, just extend the wires the old speakers are connected to so that they reach the 6x9's, job done.

If it hasny got them, just trun them in, and solder them to the hu.
