Speaker Install Help

[erikhunt]

Hey, I have a '96 Cherokee, 4.0 if it maters. I got it used and the guy told me that there were no speakers in the rear. There are however vented slots in the rear panel for speakers. I had some speakers I wanted to put in so I took off the back panel and looked for the speaker wires. Now I'm stuck, I can't find my voltmeter and the book I have just tells me in basic lingo how to do it. I can't figure out which wires are for the speakers since all the wires are thru some little hub and none are left disconnected from anything to give me a clue.

The only thing I can think of is that when the guy told me that there were no speakers in the rear, he meant it didn't come with any, but this is a loaded model (power everything). so I just figured he'd taken them out.

I'm sorry about how vague this is, but I could really use anything if any one knows it.

Thanks

I believe the jeep cherokees (not grand) had two 5.25" speaker mounts in the tailgate. If you dont have speakers there you should hopefully still have wiring.
the colours should be:
driver rear + brown/yellow
driver rear - brown/lt blue
passenger rear + blue/white
passenger rear - blue/orange
good luck
