I just got another set of pioneers for my car and i was wondering does it matter how you connect the wires like - to - or + to +? cuz when i did my fronts i didnt know which was the + or - so i just hooked it up and they worked. could it hurt the speakers if they were backwards?

From what I've "heard" around, it doesn't necessarily hurt the speakers, I've just heard people say it's not good on them. You're old speakers should be marked + or - on them somewhere....or one of the two wires will be marked with something extra on one wire. For instance, my + wire has a black strip along it. Or look in your owners manual, but the speakers should be marked, especially if it's stock.

it won't hurt the speakers, but they will be out of phase, and sounds crappy.

A resistor is a resistor is a resistor. Your amp couldn't care less which way it's facing. But slow is right, if they don't all match, then they'll be out of phase.╓<br />║ Matt M<br />║ <a href=\"http://home.austin.rr.com/morrism/3800/sunset_logo2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Down with the Sixxness</a> <br />║ Polo Green 1995 3.8 Camaro<br />║ intake, cat, catback, shocks, 3.42\'s, and 12\'s in the trunk<br />╙

typical gm wiring is... i believe
front left + = tan
front left - = grey
front right + = dark green
front right - = light green
rear left + = brown
rear left - = yellow
rear right + = dark blue
rear right - = light blue
i could be wrong... be sure to test them with a DMM or 1.5 volt batteryCaLi<br />-=|Sinister Six|=-<br /><a href=\"http://www.villagephotos.com/pubbrowse.asp?selected=756425\" target=\"_blank\">1999 Chevy Camaro Pewter</a><br />Have you ever wanted to know what happens<br />to a 3.8l v6 when you are doing 90mph in <br />2nd gear at 6000 rpm? pics to come soon...
