Does anyone know if I will need any additional wiring, etc... to hook up headrest speakers that are meant for an 05? Thanks.

 

oem or non oem speakers?

 

04+ are prewired. If you get the OEM kit it should come with everything that you need.

If you get the S-Pods, like I am going you will need a little wire to go to the harness under the dash from the speakers.

 

I am looking to buy a set of used oem headrest speakers that are currently on ebay. It only seems to include the speakers.

 

wiring is there so thats all you would need

 

I had wondered because another ebay listing mentioned that there is a special connecting harness required to hook them up to a 2000 model.

 

cause the older models were not prewired, as long as you have an 04+ you will be fine

 

Nishant, are you talking about an 04+ car or 04+ set of speakers. Sorry that I am confused.

 

04+ year car

 

My S is a 2000 model so I guess I'm out of luck. Today I had the parts guys at my work pull the instructions and it says the speakers only work for 04+. I guess my lext option is to look for an aftermarket conversion kit. Thanks for the info.

 

s-pods on s2ki.com will be what you want

 

I'll post pics of 'em as soon as mine arrive if you want.

 

Does anyone know if the rear speaker harness from lucid will be the answer to my original question?

will look in my service manual, should show it

 

Ditto - I've got an 05 and can't find the pigtail either.

 

Actually, I think I answered my own question.

It appears that the plug into the head unit is pre-wired, not the car. You still have to run wires back to the speakers.

 

I found the pigtail...

it's taped up underneath the dash by blue tape to another wireharness. It's a gray, 4 wire plug. And they don't give you much slack to work with either!

Which side?

 

it's under the driver's side of the dash. If you are able to lay down under there on your back and look up into the dash, you'll see if on your left. It's pretty much straight up from the triangular panel you remove on the side of the center console.
