Why do I need to rewire my car speakers?
Rewiring your car’s speakers can be necessary for a variety of reasons. In cars that are more than 10 years old, the insulation on the wiring can wear down, exposing the wires.
Where do you run the speaker wire in a car?
When you run the speaker wire, be sure to tuck the wiring underneath the floorboards and mats for a clean installation. Access the speakers by removing the trim paneling in front of them. Depending on the type of car you have, this paneling can vary and can be removed with either a screwdriver or some sort of pry tool.
What are the colors of the speaker wires?
Generally, speaker wires are designated with colored stripes, but each speaker can vary in color scheme. Typical stereos, however, use solid colors to designate utility wires, such as power and ground, and colored stripes to designate speaker wires.

The speaker wires from the new stereo aren’t used.
