Connectors
My 85 RS had some blow aftermarket speakers so I bought repo covers with speakers. My problem is the the original connectors are gone, where can i get replacements for now. I really dont want to solider them on.
Thanks

If aftermarket speakers, go with spade connectors.
Strip wires and crimp on regular female spade connectors.
Can use insulated spade type that cover the terminals like a plug does.
If factory speakers, go to salvage yard, hunt, match connector, harvest as a pigtail.
Factory connectors are sold online too. Spades will fit on factory speaker terminals.
Regular width spade connectors will fit on the narrow (-) terminal, or get the smaller width spade size.
That way + and - wont get mixed up if any future speaker replacement is done and wires have no +/- I.D.
Or add piece of tape to mark one wire.

No spades on those- the newer style i believe- late 90s up?
Or find some other ones.
Unless factory or aftermarket connectors can be found, its solder time.
Solder in a pigtail, using a 2 wire trailer harness, so speaker can be disconnected.
Or make one up with wire and spade connectors.
