1. How do you mount cross overs inside the door?

2. How to set an Mb Quart 4 channel settings on the amp?

3. How to test a speaker wire's positive and negative? (not shown on stocked speakers)

1: Velcro, tie wraps or hot glue gun

2: O scope on DMM

3: use a AA battery. Put 1 speak wire on the positive side & the other on the negative side. If the speaker pokes out, you have found the positive & negative wires. If the speaker sucks in, you have the wires backwards.

I think the "tie wraps" or zip ties would be the best because of all the flex. Just my 2 cents.

So just the wires in the doors? If so then the easiest way to see what one + and what ones - is to hook a speaker up. If any one else know please speak up id like to know.

well i dont really have speakers lying around to mess with so.. I just dont understand why they dont label them, AND why the speaker wires in the doors, are different color than at the H/U, cuz then i would be easy

Im sure they all match, BUT the speaker wire in the doors doesnt match anything at the radio. I just want to know how to figure out which is which so i dont put it in the wrong spot in the crossover
