Hi, what are the colours for the front speakers in the E30? Wiring some in making sure I do it to the right wires!

Thanks

From the Haynes manual (up to H reg)
Speaker front right:-grey/brown (neg) grey/white (pos) grey/green to door pod speaker.
Speaker front left. :-grey/red (pos) grey/violet (neg). grey/green to door pod speaker (if fitted)

Hope this helps
:D

They are dealer fitted, except the wires to the door tweeters, so 'whatever the dealer had to hand ' is a more accurate answer. The rear speaker wires are supposed to run back the LH sill, but are often found along the top of the centre tunnel instead.
