Wiring connectors?

[mirrorsaw]

hi guys - please go easy on me, it is installation 101 after all...

I'm replacing the 6.5" speakers in my doors, when I took out the old ones I was left with some strange alfa romeo connectors on the end of the wires which I have now clipped off.

Looking at the back of the speaker, I'm not sure what kind of connectors I need to crimp on, spades, crimp caps? Or should I just feed the ***** cable in there?

Spade connectors.

The smaller connection takes a .110 spade terminal. The larger is a .225 spade.

forget all that, just solder it to the terminal and you still have extra pair of connection point if you need it for later. Solder is the most secure and cheapest way to do it.

Only problem is you would have to cut wire later if you decide to take door or speaker off.
