Has anyone here used the built-in speakers? I'm sure I can figure out the wiring by trial & error, but I'd prefer to know.
The Red/Yellow and Red/Blue wires should go to the left speaker and the Blue/White and Blue/Orange wires should go to the right speaker. This should be the same for both passenger and driver side seats. This is for a '92 Miata. Let me know what MY car the seats are from and I'll make sure it's the same.
Since I'm pretty sure those are 4 ohm speakers you might be better off running them in series.
They are 4ohm - but if I run in series, the resistance will increase to 8ohm - you think that is less likely to be an issue?
Most car audio amps aren't designed to run much less than 4 ohms. The only issue with running 8 ohms is that they won't get as loud, but as Carl noted, they are right by your head so that will probably be a good thing.
