Yup after all the years and miles driven I've had a bad speaker on the passenger side. @Tweety Bird said, "Get this fixed! Time to get new speakers in Beast!" @Tweety Bird and I went to a stereo shop in Lewiston ID to look at speakers and prices. Great quality is really pricey say like $350 for a pair of speakers that really sound rich in frequency. Being budget mined I jumped over to Amazon and found.

Kicker Dodge Ram Truck 1994-2011 Speaker Bundle - CS 6x9 coaxial Speakers, and CS 5.25" coaxial Speakers.

Yeah Dodge and there strange wiring schemes. I'll list out the positive and negative wiring for each speaker. You can see I cut the factory OEM speaker plug off and wired in the new blade style terminals. Be aware of the polarity of each wire and speaker lug. In this set, the Kicker makes the ground with a black strip, and the positive lug is marked red.

Same speakers I put in my truck three years ago. They sound all right. My son says I should put a small bass thumper under the seat so that I can "feel the music". Just what I need to go deaf faster.

Heck. My wife likes it loud when we travel. Crank up the music for some songs and sing for miles. Then, after awhile the conversation chokes the music out. @Tweety Bird is more of a 70s and 80's fan. I'm more of a popular fan. Truth is, no matter what, we have to travel some serious distances just for supplies. Might as well have Beast in good repair right now being the winter weather is holding up shop work.
