Kicker 6x8" Front Speaker Replacement Kit For 1999-2016 Ford F-250/350/450/550 - Customer Ratings & Reviews

great product

The connector allows installation of aftermarket speakers without modifying the factory harness. The only issue I had was one of the wires was loose in the connector.

Awesome product

Bought these for a 02 F150. Just plug in the connector from your truck that connects to factory speaker into these harnesses then into your new speaker. Makes install a breeze.

Metra 72-5600

It was an exact fit. I had no problems with installation.

Easy to use

These are very easy to use and install. It's also easier to clean up if you want to take out your aftermarket speakers at a later time.

very handy

This was a good simple product that made installing new speakers a breeze. It was just plug and play,no cutting or anything. Would recommend to anyone whose vehicle allows for it.

Metra 72-5600 (2007 Ford Mustang GT Shaker 500)

Purchased to install 2 pairs of Pioneer TS-D6802R in my 2007 Mustang GT with Shaker 500. Made the install easy. Make sure to check the alignment of the conductors when plugging into the car's harness. The pins of the Metra plug kept pushing out of the connector.
Plenty of slack for the install. Zip tie everything down.

Works great

Worth the few buck especially if you are using the stock ford wiring harness

Perfect Match!

Perfect Match for a Ford Fusion 2006 +!
If you have a 6 speaker system with 2 tweets up front you wont be able to connect them with stock harnesses your gonna have to buy some bass blockers and wire them directly to the terminals on the speakers(if your not using a amp because if you are then your obviously in no need of these!)

Great product thought!

Made install a snap

Perfect connection, keeps the vehicle stock if there is ever a need, plus made installing the speakers so easy.

Easy

Good product. makes installing speakers very easy

Excellent

I am very pleased with this product.

Ford Speaker Connectors

Work great if you can plug them in without breaking then by pushing the wires through the back. They come two per package, I found if you bend the black wires prong down just a little they plug in pretty easy. I broke 3 on the drivers door on my 02 f350 after that I got the hang of them fortunately I bought twice as many as I needed on accident so I still have two unbroken ones left.

Makes speaker installation a breeze

They plug right into the factory wiring and into the speakers. The only way to go.

No brainer product

This product is a no brainer product when replacing speakers in a Ford unless you are using an amp. Makes the install a simple plug and play.

Perfect and Simple

Well worth the money. So easy swapping out the factory speakers with these speaker adapter wires. Just plug and play. Sweet! Nothing to complain about! Was jamming to my tunes in a matter of minutes and still retain the factory wiring with no splicing!

Great Product

I recommend that everyone use these adapters. It allows you to install aftermarket speakers quickly without compromising your factory wiring. Later if you decide to reinstall your factory speakers you can easily do so by unplugging the adapter and plugging your factory harness back into the speakers.

Worth the price

I've always been a hardwire kind of guy. The only problem with that is it gets to be a pain splicing wires and makes it a pain to uninstall speakers. The 72-5600 makes the job a snap - saves time, frustration, and retains the factory connectors. I'll use them again when the time comes!

Take it easy with these.

On my '01 F-150 supercrew, I ran into an issue with these on two of my four speakers (both back ones, for reasons unknown). In trying to get the adapter into the door fitting, one of the pins was pushed back through the adapter and fell out. Basically, you're going to want to wiggle the snot out of it in pretty much every direction when putting it in (I know, that's what she said), or it'll make it a total PITA to get both pins attached correctly. Maybe some dielectric grease would help.

Whatever. Just use caution and don't get to rowdy.

metra 72-5600

I would recommend this product, it is working wonderful for me, if your looking for a clean look while installing new speakers In your vehicle, this would be it, I am not one to have some kind of messy look after doing this kind of work, I like my stuff to look clean, neat, and be able to hide it easily without any worries.

Exactly as advertised

These handy-dandy items make installation a breeze. Would not think of doing it without them. Don't be cheap, spend the money so you don't have to chop up the factory wiring.

great connection

Good easy connection to bad its not included on the original order with the speakers I would have enjoyed the speakers sooner

Made speaker instillation easy

Used these to install two Pioneer TS-A6885R speakers in my 2010 Ford fusion se. The wires came pre crimped, just had to plug wire ends into speakers and factory harness. This made the instillation quick and easy. Definitely worth the extra little bit of cash.

Just what I needed

The product was exactly as specified and was exactly what I needed to get the speakers to hook up to my vehicle

Perfect Solution!

Used these adapters to quickly add new speakers to my 2014 Mustang doors without the hassle of cutting factory wiring. Terminals connected tight and securely.

Don't try to intall without these

These are awesome. Just plug in and you are good to go. Don't waste your time without these.

Nice product.\

These made the installation very easy however the terminals did not fit my Rockford Fosgate Punch 6x8 speakers. I had to cut them off and crimp terminals on I had that fit which took like 2 seconds.

Easy to hook up

Made replacement of my Ford Ranger supercab factory speakers a breeze..

Essential for a speaker upgrade

The days of cutting your speaker harness are gone. These connectors are well worth the cost for ease of installation and not having to cut your existing harness. If you ever decide to reinstall the factory speakers because you are selling the vehicle or it is leased, all you have to do is unplug the harness connectors and the original speakers plug back in. I installed them in my wife's Maxda 6 with a speaker upgrade and they fit perfect without complication.

Quality Install Made Easy

Metra made the install of my aftermarket speakers quick and easy. The quality of the product was tight; leaving me with excellent reproduction from my high-end pioneer speakers and no issues after 6 months from installation.

Great Product

Product work as advertised in my 2002 Ford Ranger.
I would recommend this product to anyone upgrading from factory speakers.

Makes installation so simple.

So simple to install just plug and play. Bought 2 sets of these for 02 f150 and they worked perfect. Sure you can cut into your harness and install but these make it so much easier and quicker.

a must for door speaker installation

Never, ever cut your factory speaker wires. Harness makes speaker installation a snap

Well made

Connects with relative ease and no hassle with car wires

Product worked like a charm

This product made the installation of new speakers a snap!!! Saved over an hour of soldering and stripping.

Perfect fit.

Made my new Pioneer speakers "Plug and Play" when I replaced all 4 of my Shaker 500 speakers in my 2011 Mustang.

Wire adapters

Installer said they worked perfect and made the job very easy.

By CHUCK on August 8, 2015 Verified purchase

Easy install with out the wire mess

These speaker adapters helped make the install quick and smooth with my aftermarket speakers in my 2007 f150. Yes you can cut out the factory speaker harness, solder or use other wire connectors but these save time and fit perfectly into the oem speaker harness clips.

What a Timesaver!

Used these when replacing the door speakers on my girlfriend's 2009 Ford Focus - what a timesaver! Very convenient, easy to use, and beats the heck out of crimping and soldering for a simple install.

Easy To Install

This is the best idea that has ever came to light... Recommend, getting when install speakers. It made the install plug and play.

Plug & Play

Works perfectly with my Mazda 3 speaker harness! I just wish things like this were cheaper.

Did the job... in my 2010 Ford Taurus All speakers.

They worked and with a little shaping even fit the slightly different tweeter connectors. You have to hold them right when snapping in because the plug leads/wires have a habit of wanting to push out.

Made install a breeze, for the most part

These speaker adapters are on the best things you can purchase if you're powering your main speakers with your head unit. There's no need to splice wires, you just plug and play. The only downside to these were that there are two common sizes for (+) terminals, and these had the smaller size, while the speakers they were hooked up to were the larger ones. I had to do some chopping to get everything to fit, but it's been on there for over 6 months with no problems. The install in my 2006 Ford Focus was so much easier thanks to these Metra adapters.

Top Notch product . And I Will probably by another set for rear side panels of my truck after Christmas.

You can not go wrong with purchasing kickers. The price for such a great sound upgrade to my stereo system is remarkable. Thanks.

Works ok...

I bought these to install 4 aftermarket mids and 2 tweeters in my 2010 Taurus. They work ok. When you are trying to plug them into your speakers the wire/prongs keep pushing out of the connector bracket but if you hold them right you can connect. One thing nice -the tweeters were a different connector but if you cut the metra's plastic connector a bit and rotate them in the other way they would fit. This was convenient because I assumed all connectors were the same for Taurus speakers.

Easy,simple and lowes in price by far.

I read up on line that there were adapters to easily install aftermarket speakers in my truck. Goggled the part needed and Sonic came up by far the cheapest in price and shipping was free. Stranger yet they are the exact same parts that were three times the price and then any other store on line. Shipping came in a quick 6 days.

Great Ford speaker adapters

Worked great on my 2012 Boss 302. Allows aftermarket speakers without cutting the harnesses.

Was good for 3 weeks

After 3 weeks one of them went out before that thay where good

Easy connection

Used these connectors to install after market speakers and it made the job simple. They just plug in to the existing wires for a easy connection. No splicing or tape needed either.

A must-have item!

I was on the fence with buying these at first, as I had a wiring diagram for my car and knew which factory wires were positive and negative. After using them, I can confidently say that they are worth the extra money. They made installing my new speakers idiot-proof! You literally cannot mess up your install with these. Just put the big connector on the big speaker tab, the little connector on the little speaker tab, plug the whole thing into the factory harness,and you're done. Takes all the guesswork out of the install and makes replacing speakers in the future much easier.

Made installation extremely easy.

Using the Metra 72-5600 speaker wiring harness made the installation extremely easy and made the final installation look professional. The fit was perfect and eliminated any wiring guess work. I highly recommend this product.

Great simple product

Truly plug and play. Great quality design and sound. And the staff is quick and knowledgeable, loved working with them to find the right parts for my project. I would recommend contacting them and having someone help you even if you know what you need like I did, it really is a pleasure.

Works but...

Had to cut the connectors off. They didn't fit spades on the Rockford Fosgate speakers I installed in place of the stock speakers. Had to cut the connectors off and use regular stay-cons (F connectors). Plugged into the stock harness with solid connections though.

By Randohn on January 16, 2018 Verified purchase

Easiest job done!

Perfect..

By Glenn on April 23, 2016 Verified purchase

Must buy

Made it really easy to install no cutting wires just plugs right in had the change one end to fit speaker

Speaker adaptor harness

Ok, these were purchased for my daughters 2002 Ford Focus ZTS - they work fine with one issue.
When you pull the factory speaker out of the harness the factory speakers are clearly marked with a positive and a negative symbol to denote which side is which polarity. The adaptor harness will only fit in one way and this is were the problem comes in, when plugging in the adaptor harness into the factory harness the adaptor harness flips the polarity.
In short what should be positive is now negative and vice versa with the negative side.
When using just make sure of where your polarity's are and how the adaptor connects to your new speakers.

A Must Have!

I was a little hesitant on ordering this product due to receiving the wrong harness from a different site in the past. I was extremely happy I did! They connected right to my existing harness on my CR-V. Thank you! I will definitely be ordering from them again!
