Default Connector for rear deck woofers?

I'm installing some new subs(two 12") and going to disconnect the existing 8" woofers in the rear deck. The plan was originally to just tap into those wires but then I saw the white plastic connectors. Anyone know where I could find a wire that plugs into those so I don't have to clamp onto the existing ones? (hopefully this makes sense)

Ummm...FYI the stock rear deck subs are 6.5" not 8". I put in two 8" free air subs in the same location with some modding of course. Just cut the connector off, that's all I did to expose the pos & neg wires.

I read somewhere someone had put in 8", probably why I said that. I was hoping not to cut them incase I ever wanted to go back to stock.

i didnt cut my rear deck. I added the 8's with a false panel that plays through the factory holes.

It sounds like poop though without an amp.

I had bought new Kicker 6.5 inch Sub, and replaced the Stock Subwoofer, but also added a 10" sub/box in Trunk, got carried away. You can get a Sub in the size 6.5, just gotta look around. The 6.5 sub sounded good, I just wanted more.

No luck on the other side of that connector in the aftermarket. Just leave some wire on the connector end when you cut it, and if you want go back to stock, just splice / solder it all back together.

Take care,

George
