I'm junking a 2002 Limited with the infinity speakers. Id like to save them for my '98 XJ.
What can I do to make this work? The speakers sounded great last I heard them before storage. Is there a way how to make them work independently?
Pretty sure there's a gremlin in the wiring causing static to all. Do I need the radio too?

I think you can just pull the speakers and go. I replaced mine as soon as I bought the jeep because they were rotten, everything else is stock. The dash speakers are full range connected in parallel with the front door ones.

Thanks guys. Do I need to run heavy gauge speaker wire considering the amps are on the back? Or is there a separate power wire.
I've yet to see one up close.
I'm not stupid, I'm teachable, I don't think it's a bad thing to admit that I don't know. So please don't Flame me! Thanks.

We don't do flames on here, we are all too old and worn to care!
I've not had mine in bits but I guess the amps are going to need 12v and an earth and a pre amplified input.
Before you get too involved check the speakers, you may find the foam surround is falling to bits, you can replace it but to be honest the cost and effort would probably make a set of new or second hand speakers a better bet.
My parts car is a Limited too, but I know the speakers in it need foam, they fart at high volume so I haven't bothered swapping them round.

Thanks for the info. Last I drove the car the speakers sounded great. Blasting to CCR & The Stones. Reminded me of the stuff the kids have now.
Things may have changed since it went to storage. I'll take a door panel off an have a look see.
RE: Flaming? glad that went by the wayside. I have better things to do than point out my own insecurities.
