Not wanting to sink a bunch of cash into a older car, one driven by my college aged daughter, I decided to upgrade her speakers since a couple of them were distorting very badly due to a torn speaker cone / foam edge ring.

This Block is white in color and is inline from the speaker bracket to the speaker. It goes like this; vehicle wiring harness plugs into a double female connector that is part of the speaker bracket. This White Block plugs into the double female connector on one end and then on the other it plugs into the positive & negative spade lugs on the speaker.

[QUOTE="OLDBALLZ, post: 8700865, member: 679249"] Good Afternoon Gentlemen & Ladies; FNG (F'ing New Guy) here with a request for assistance in identifying a component of the 6x9 front door panel speakers (JBL 86160-AA382) in my daughters oldie but goodie 2003 Toyota Camry SE with factory JBL head unit, amp & speakers (6).
