Yep!

"UPDATE"
Put two of my Polk Speakers in the rear doors ! Figured I would start there! Not to bad but a second person would make it easier . "U{DATE"

Starting to get overcast so I will do the fronts another day !
The METRA Adapter that you guy told me about made it real Easy, Biggest pain was unplugging the OEM Speakers and The OEM were damp ! :O
I broke 1 mounting clip ! So will pick some up. Just need to find the right ones !
The signal and key beeper must work off the front as they still do not make a sound ! But can live with that
So M son will give me a hand w/the fronts when we do his wiper transmission
THANK YOU EVERYONE for the Help !

I used these in one case to preserve the original grilles but there’s more than one way to skin that cat. Don’t use the pigtail connectors unless the old connectors are pristine. I soldered them on.


Pulpfriction Those adapters are the friggin awesome. Work perfect. I got the METRA Brand and pigtails. As mention the do fit loose w/o foam trim. I had to try w/o lol. With the foam cones in and it tighten right up. o thanks for the tips

Are these the right Door Panel Clips ? 1 broke !

I am really liking the New POLK Marine Grade Speakers DB652 I installed
My 2 cents if it matters
I used the Foam Cones for protecting
The sound is very clear.
Bass is very mild , SO if you like a lot of Bass these may not cut it for you !
But the foam cones may be cutting down the bass !
They run like the treble is up ! Good for me.
