Factory + / - speaker wiring

[nonuro]

My Polk 651's came today so I'll put them in on Sunday and I'll be splicing the wires. Which is the positive wire on the factory wiring? Once I open up the car I don't want ant surpises. I have all the info about installing the speakers but don't see any about the wiring.

Never mind. I found the info.

I posted my question and then scrolled down to see the post " speaker wires" by TINSEL. I think the wire with the stripe is the positive.

If you are referring to the wire with the BROWN stripe, it is not positive. Look at the attached image.
IE, Orange - positive, Orange/Brown - Negative, etc...

Generally striped wires are always negative. I believe this is all on the Evilution site under speaker replacement.
