Re: Rear Speaker wiring harness
Don't know the reason for needing the harness, but another consideration might be to get one of these kits.

Re: Rear Speaker wiring harness
Forgive me if I'm being nosey, but why do you need the wiring harness? The 2007 should already have speakers fitted. If they're not working it might be because of the fader.

Re: Rear Speaker wiring harness
Thanks for being nosey Phil, my '07 does have a harness however also has a short in the left speaker. I've tested the right wire into the left and works great, then tested the left into the right and got nothing. For $40. I'd rather change the harness and while at it I want to upgrade the speakers. I am still pondering which speakers to go to. J&M's are ok however Pionner make a better speaker I believe... any thoughts?

You might try to Google GL1800 audio upgrade and see what you find.
There are lots of manufacturers that make 5 1/4" speakers, but not all will fit without some modification.

Re: Rear Speaker wiring harness
A lot of people install Polk DB501's in the rear, and report excellent sound quality.

Re: Rear Speaker wiring harness
G'day, I upgraded my rears to Pioneer, can't remember which ones. The sound improvement was worth the money.

Re: Rear Speaker wiring harness
I installed the Polk DB501's, also. They are slightly smaller than the original speakers and I had to cut the mounting slots open (easy with a high leverage side cutter) and use small fender washers under the mounting screws. The difference in sound quality was amazing. Since you're doing the rears, do the fronts at the same time.
