Easy To Understand Instructions For How To Install Car Speakers
If you are not happy with the quality of sound that your car speakers are giving you, install new ones and just listen to the change it makes. The speakers that factories install in cars just do not put out the quality of sound that most people want. Once you have chosen and purchased the new speakers that you want, instead of paying a professional to do it, you can install them yourself, and save money in the process.
You will save time by making sure you have all the tools you need to do the job before you are ready to begin. If the new speakers are the same size as the old ones, the process is quite simple. If you have purchased larger speakers, it will require more work to install them.
After gathering all of your tools keep them all together in one area and within your reach. You will need; a door panel remover and screwdrivers. If you are going to install larger speakers, you will need a cordless drill also. Some speakers have slip on wire connections or a connection feature with a button that allows you to simply insert the speaker wire into a hole. When the button is released, the wire is gripped to the connection. If the speakers do not have that feature, you will also need a wire cutter, stripper, and soldering supplies. New car stereo speakers come with a guide, so read it carefully and have it handy for reference. It is helpful too, to make sure you have plenty of room to open the car doors all the way, so your work area is more comfortable and so you are not trying to move around in a cramped space. Make sure you also have sufficient lighting to do the job. Once you have everything you need to install your new speakers, you can proceed. The whole job should be finished within a couple of hours and you will be proud of the fact that you did it yourself.
Some vehicles have speaker covers that need to be taken off before removing the door panel. This can most often be done with the use of a screw driver. The door panel will need to be removed to provide access to the old speakers for removal. The door panel remover makes it easy to do. Once the panels are off and the old speakers are in view, remove the wire from the speaker. Use the wire cutters if the connection has been soldered. Next, choose the correct size of screwdriver and remove the screws that are holding the speaker to the mount on the inside of the door. It is a good idea to clean out the area around the speakers before you install the new ones to help prevent loose debris from damaging them. If the speakers are larger, you will have to drill new holes in the mount or replace the mounting with a larger one.
Once you have set the new speakers onto their mounts, replace the screws and reattach the wires to the connections. Once you replace the door panels, your mission is accomplished. Now, take a drive and show off your news sounds.

Speaker wire?
How do you determine what guage of speaker wire you need?
18 gauge cable is all you need.
I've spent more than 10 years setting up sound systems for corporate boardroom presentations as well as large audience capacity in arenas. My concern for speaker cable properties consisted primarily of power and distance.
If you're talking about professional installations in large venues, then you'll need to apprentice for a few months in order to understand all the necessary information, more than what can be described in this forum.
But if all you're talking about is wiring your home stereo, then that's about the simplest of all. Remember the KISS philosophy; Keep It Simple, Stupid. The runs will most likely be less than 50 ft, and not subject to high-power transmissions that incur EMI (unless you're running a broadcast station out of your home).
For short runs with only the usual EMI in a home, there are only two concerns for cable, length and thickness. The longer the wire, the more resistance it adds which leads to voltage drop (signal level attentuation), but the thicker it is, the more it reduces that resistance which leads to more current capability without overheating.
14 gauge cable can carry up to 20 amps and is used for standard wiring inside your walls for electric power. 16 gauge cable can carry up to 13 amps and is used for most electric extension cords. If you've got a 1,000w amplifier in your home, you'll need 16 gauge cable to handle the power to your speakers, although your walls will literally crumble.
For a simple home stereo, 18 gauge cable is very sufficient. Using any thicker cable will only cost you more with no benefit. Actually, you could even use 22 gauge cable, but I've found those to be too thin to be workable. 18 gauge will safely handle up to 5 amps, which translates to 200 watts per CHANNEL. As for frequency response, you'd need NASA-type testing to discern any difference. Your room acoustics would be much more detrimental.
