i have an 87 ram 50 and i went to install the new deck but saw that the original wiring is only four wires. Black-GROUND,Red-POWER,Green-SPEAKER(+),Blue-SPEAKER(+). the issue is that aftermarket radios obviously have two wires for each speaker (+) and (-) and the original harness only has the positive. I guess my question is do i ground the speaker with the black radio ground? or shoud i ground them on my own to a good ground that i have to find? other idea was just new wires for each speaker two straight to the deck, also as far as power do i put the red(switched power from deck)and yellow(constant power from deck) straight to the red and splice all three together?
side fact this truck is amazing its an 87 with 68k,5 speed and no rust just awesome i love the gem i found.
