Hi All,
Finally having my equipment installed yesterday and today. It was supposed to be a one day, 2 man job, but has gone into 2 full day due to problems with bi-amping the front door components. I am told that an extensive amount of additional work/labor was needed because of some sort or door plugs. The name begins with 'M', something like Murdex Plug. I am told that factory speakers have some sort of plug in the door instead of a conduit to run wires.When you replace the factory speaker wires it ends up being a great deal of extra work. Any ideas on this issue? The work is not costing me more, but, had they known the speakers were connected via this plug, they would have charged a lot more.

Molex plugs, I believe that are the name. I guess it is not just Tweeter that has had problems. Sorry bout the shared misery.
