Identifing some wires
I just need your guys help telling me which wire is negative and which is positive. On the passenger side 4 X 6, it has a clip that plugged into the factory speaker. It was labeled A and B for each of the wires. A is striped green/dark green and B is just solid green. I need to know which is which. And also does the same apply for all the other wires?
For example: The striped is negative, so all the striped wires on the other speaker clips are negative. Thank you so much!

i think how you just said it is how it is,
another way to find out real quick is to look at one of the speakers and see which wire goes to the cone coil and which goes to the cone only
pos to the coil and neg to the cone material
afaik but then im no audio person
i usually dont worry about it unless it make a noticeable difference in sound, which i dont think it ever has in the past,
its too hard to figure out which is which
good luck

The stripe that you are seeing is just color transfer from the wires pulling apart. Gm factory wires have no stripes in the audio wires.
