Does anybody know if they have release speaker connectors yet? So you don't have to cut your wires to install new speakers.

 

Yes, I picked up 2 sets at BestBuy for about $5 a set (pair)....

 

Me too. Metra makes them, but I can't find the part #. It's been posted on this board before. Maybe a "search" will turn it up.

 

I went to two seperate Best Buy's and several local audio shops and no one had these connectors. Anybody order them online?

 

You can get them from Crutchfield also.

 

Metra Part Number 72-5600. I picke mine up at Best Buy also. They were less than $6 a pair.

 

can't find those listed on Best Buy.com, Circuitcity.com or metraonline.com.. Any updates on a better part number? I bought some from circuit city but they didnt fit so i had to cut them anyway.... Now i need some for the back.

 

i don't know where you can buy them - but mine came with my order from Crutchfield, so i know they have them

 

Best buy has 'em, your best bet is to go INTO the install bay - they ALWAYS have them, whereas the sales people don't even know what they are!

 

i went into the install bay at circuit city and they gave me the wrong ones!!! i need a valid part # so i'll know if they sell me the right one.

 

You can get them from Crutchfield.
Click on the link, direct to the harnesses.

 

Crutchfield wants $18.00 just for the harnesses. I was trying to buy the speakers locally but cant find the harnesses.

 

The harnesses are free if you buy the speakers through Crutchfield as well. I bought my entire setup from Crutchfield. Have had good luck with them in the past.

 

Snip away i say. I personally feel a solder connection cannot be beat. Anyway If I go to trade in I'll replace the HU but most likely leave in the speakers. However I did buy the SCOSCHE adpt for the HU. I'm presently using the original HU into High inputs of my amp. Sounds OK. I still need to get something with RCA's to have a cleaner sound. Though.

 

like the others did, I got some from install bay at Best Buy. I'm not sure of the part number, but I'm pretty sure they said application for 1998-up Ford.
