Default 6.5 inch speaker wiring harnesses

I'd like to replace the 6.5" speakers in each door but I'm having trouble finding the correct wiring harness. Crutchfield lists this Speaker Wiring Harnesses For select 1978-up vehicles at Crutchfield.com but that connector is definitely not correct. I have a picture of the plug in the front door and it looks nothing like the one on Crutchfield. Has anyone come across the correct harness? I know I can just cut and splice the wires but I'd rather go plug and play if possible. Thanks

I re did mine in my 03 and and did the cut solder and heat shrink method. Super easy man. Save the cash and use your hands.

Or just get some red butt splices, no worries about accidentally burning your door panels. Or yourself.

I went the cut and solder route. Butt connectors work but I prefer solder because it will never fail. If you are worried about being able to return it to stock, just cut the wires back far enough to allow the plug to be reconnected but honestly, you will never put the factory junk back in. Just cut, splice and rock.
