DJ,

I ran new wires for mine and left the old ones where they were, so if I ever want to go back to stock, everything plugs right back in.

 

I believe that the correct adapter can be had by asking for the '99 accord adapter. $5 at circuit city. free if you bought from crutchfield.

BTW, did your polks fit? Someone here posted that the holes were different circumferences a couple weeks ago. I bought the ex602a's as well, but returned them prior to attempting the install. I'm still debating what to get.

Anyone out there try out the new Infinity Reference 652i's yet?

 

well juss before installing my polks, i viewed the polls and i noticed that only a few of you have installed them. so i went back to the store and i bought some infinites instead. i opted not to use the adaptor and i spliced away instead. well after doin one side i am happy with the way that side sounds. the infinites did have a much much larger magnet than the polks so i did have to do some surgery on the speaker basket. other than that they fit fine. also the infinites have a rotatable tweeter so you can direct it up rather than haveing them aimed directly at your knees...

DJ- Does your dad know about the "surgery" yet?

 

lol, what pops dont know wont hurt him

 

for best results, add 1 amplifier.
it makes a world of a difference.
