Of course, I *also* bought the wiring harness that musicarnw (VP Electricity) sells, and THEN it is plug and play.

And they sound nice.

I'm crossing them over about 175hz to the doors, which are Morel Hybrid Ovations, all powered by JL Audio amp.

Using pink noise and a RTA, just tweaking the crossover and the relative levels, it's a nice step up.

Disclosure: Made even better when I used the old JLAUDIO iphone amp and test signals from Studio Six to check speaker polarity. Somewhere, I got my red and black confused, and the app helped me find that. (And both the rear deck OEM speakers, which are still too loud even when the JL Audio amp is at its lowest gain setting for them, were in phase with one another but nothing else in the car, so I fixed that too, while in there.)
We don't sell harnesses, so I think that you might be mistaken. We don't ship any woofer harnesses, or speaker harnesses, without them being attached to the speakers.
