Im planning on installing 4 of these in a 2005 Mazda 3. Are there any other parts/cables that I need for the install ? Thanks.

If the speakers are the same size as the originals, the original hardware should suffice. But you might need to check your connections on your speakers to see if they are soldered or have plug type connections that can be pulled off the terminals. I brought mine to a local Best Buy to have installed because of the difficulty mounting these in the doors of my pickup with all the panels that had to be removed. Plus they warranty the work. Good luck.

The only thing I had to use is a Metra Speaker adapter for a particular Make. There are 2 adapter per package. Install is super easy and they sound great!

I bought a pair of these speakers for my 2001 Ford Ranger XLT front doors, Love them,will they also fit the rear doors ?

i have no way to say for sure, but I would assume you wouldnt. just snip the wires going to your stock speakers and splice the new ones (included) to the leads. I would google which wire is positive and which is negative.

You may want to order the factory speaker wire adaptors or be prepared to do a little wiring hook-up changing. No big deal if you are a little able in this area. If you buy the speakers from Amazon, the site will probably offer them as an additional item. I think mine cost me around $8.00. Good luck and I think you'll like them.

I saw a review that said you do not need it. I'm assuming you installed an aftermarket radio, and from what I can find, you connect the 3 blue wires together. There may be an antenna amp that needs power to work properly. 5.0 out of 5 stars Do not need for a 2005 Nissan Altima, December 21, 2009 By Christopher L. Lombardi "Lumber" (Connecticut) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Metra 40-NI10 Nissan Antenna Adapter (Electronics) I am sure this product works great, but Do not buy it for a 2005 Nissan Altima. You do not need it, I made this mistake. Just hook up the Power Antenna wire to a power source (Head unit preferred). ------------------------------------------------------ You can also read this thread for a discussion: http://www.nissanclub.com/forums/2002-2006-nissan-altima-discussion-2-5-3-5/196573-2005-nissan-altima-radio-question-2.html

It all depends on your audio system. If you have an auxiliary port it will work. If your audio system has a button for satellite (mine says "SAT"), auxiliary, or for a multi CD changer it will work. If you have a multi CD changer or satellite radio already installed, this cable will have to replace that feature since it uses the same port. I have this installed in a 2006 Mazda 3 and it works fine. However, you must remove the center console and radio in order to install this, so only attempt if you are fairly handy. If you need more advice, let me know.

Cables and housing were included in the several kits I have bought. You have to be careful not to have too big a loop with rear cable, or cable may be short.

Nope you don't need any cables. It comes with everything. They all plug and play and e everything works perfect like the OEM. I bought the same thing on my 2012 Chrysler 200 Convertible touring. It's great! All steering controls works and automatically connects to camera when you get a backup camera installed. The Navigation is 3D! I was try getting the Chrysler one but the charged me $2800 for it. So this one is way cheaper and better. I will recommend it to anyone.

Very good for my 05 Mazda 3, but it does depend on the car. These are some of the best speakers ive owned. Make sure to power them properly.

Hello Sir,I didn't need any extra cable for installing the Costar on my 07 Escalade. I found all instructions needed on some website with people posting some tutorials regarding this specific car installation. The Escalade is equipped with genuine Onstar system, I just removed the 2 plug from the Continental silver box located behind the AC display and plug them into the Costar device, and that was it. Easy and useful, it works perfectly with all onboard features as display in the odometer or steering wheel functions.Hope it will help.Philippe

I have a 2012 SG and I needed 10 ga. Wiring for hot and ground. I bought wire and connectors and made them up myself with a fusible link cheaper than buying a wiring kit. Also check out hd forum and look for ultranutz, he has all the answers and can furnish a step by step process for hooking everything up. Everything I got from him was spot on. Worked perfectly.

Hi Jean The window power switch I purchased was for my 2005 Mazda6 sedan. I dont know if this would fit your 2005 Mazda pick up as I think it would have two windows ( my Mazda6 has four windows)The switch I bought was for a righthand drive car but my car is lefthand drive (Australia) All the windows work well but the auto down button dosn't work all that well. This could be because of the left hand drive mode Keith

No cables with mine either. Be sure to use heavy gauge copper cables. I found some long battery cables with the lugs soldered on at the auto parts store.An inline fuse at the battery end is also the best way to go.

before you order this, make sure you have an exact wiring diagram of the car...there are numerous likely colored wires under the dash that the instructions and additional references they send you do not address. you must know exactly what you're doing..ie: be a professional installer or have done one before. it was way to complicated for my ability (i do my own oil changes, tune ups, radiator/transmission flushes and brakes) so it was returned.

Honestly, mine didn't work at all and I hAve a Mazda 2005 3. The piece came broken for the sound adjustment, so I felt I wasted my money when I had such high hopes.

In some of the car u have to use the original parts. They doesnt work for my mazda 6. So you need to ask your mecanic

If there are two wires going into the connector, which there most likely is, you can simply cut the connector off saving as much wire as you can. The polarity of the wires won't effect your sound quality so you can solder on new wires or a new type of connector onto the wires coming out of your door that used to be wired into the connector. I did this on my 2002 Mazda P5 and it worked perfectly.
