Default Disco 2 Old Sub to New Sub Wiring

Got these two attached. What is the wiring I need to connect the old wires to the new speakers?

Thanks.

Found a diagram page. Can anyone tell me how many channels the original 2002 Disco amplifier has?
Thanks

From the wiring diagram, both of the 6.5" subs in the cargo door are on 2 separate channels.
The wires should be the same as you took them off... red & yellow positive wires to positive speaker connections and black negative wires to negative speaker connections.
From looking at your speaker, flip your one speaker around so the connections will be close to the wires since they are short.

Ok, so I stretched the small female connector to fit the male one. Only hooked up 2 of the 4 connections on each speaker. Plugged it in and they work great.

Question, they are a little wide in the back, so I need to cut the back cargo door area. Whats the easiest and less damaging way for this to be done?

Thanks
Sean
