Here's my stupid question. Found this replacing my broken door handle.

Door only has one speaker, maybe 1" in diameter in front of the window/lock switches. I had something rattling in the door a few months ago and pulled out a plastic cover that said "clarion" on it, no clue what I did with it. Not sure if there is another inside the pass door. Just wondering what it does.

That's a crossover for separate highs and lows.

X2. It came with a set of aftermarket speakers and decides which frequency ranges to go the woofer or tweeter respectively.

Okay, so I have two 55 watt halogen lights on top of my custom backrack, right now theirs a switch understeering wheel. I am wanting to go to a stock lock.
I got a another relay, after doing the 4 hi mod, I also grabbed a cargo light swtich from a local auto salvage yard.

Would the wiring for switch be as simple as the 4 hi mod for the relay?
I have the 85, 86, 87, 30 relay.
#85 - ground
#30 - fuse box, inline fuse. (the 4 hi is going to the battery already)
#86 - to the switch?
#87 - to the lights?

would it be that simple? am I wrong?

Yes it should be that simple, I think you need a 12 ga. wire to power the lights or larger. Just to be on the safe side I would use a 10 ga. Rememder all a relay is, is an eletro magnetic switch, so as long as the supply wire is large enough to carry the load, it will work fine. The ground wire, and switch wire can be smaller, because all they do is work the electro magnet switch.

does it matter what goes to what like 86, 87. #87 lights #86 switch. or does it matter

 

[kennythewelder]

Yes it maters big time. Here is the videos I used when I did my 4 high head light mod. If your relay only has 1 #87 pin that's ok you can run 2 wires off of it, but like it says in the video, 87 and 87 a are different, you need a relay with 1 or 2 #87 pins and not a #87 and #87 a.

Has anybody installed a double din in a 97 model dash? Any trimming required? Or did it go pretty smooth?
