[QUOTE="grassroots, post: 3231915, member: 571725"] so my buddy's m3 came with a system when he bought it but nothing worked. we bought two sets of 2 way polk speakers to replace the pos kappas that were in there and all the goodies to hook it up. when i finally looked at it, the wiring was so butchered you couldn't tell what was what. i honestly didn't even want to deal with it since i was doing it for free so he went to fry's who said they'd wire it all for 150 bucks (after talking them down from 250). well here's there handy work..
