a little dirty. but here is the socket. if someone figures where the wires come out on the driver's side under the dash..and how to put an extra pin in there...please do let me know. passenger side is easy enough to access..

this is the one on the passenger side. that little red plastic thing at about 8 oclock position in the pic.


figuring i don't need the old speaker wire setup..i just cut the old ones and hooked it up to my own.




short of drilling into the door for slipping thru the wires...this is what i did. the rear door is easier as it has some rubber grommets that u can slip thru.
