Yeah, you can splice them, but don't count on getting great signal quality from them again.

I hear ya. When I traded in my 03 ranger for an 04 ranger, I didn't have my torx bolts to unbolt my seats. I had 6 channels of Monster cable RCA's running between my seats under the mat. They were worth about 160 bucks. No way was I gonna leave them in there, but no way could I get them out. So I sniped them off. Oh well... I was in a rush...

Just drop in and see a tech installer at a local car audio shop. For a few dollars, he'll be able to pinpoint what exactly you need to fix, save you a lot of time, effort and fustration.

Yeah thats what i plan on doing..i didn't make it up down to waco today but i'm gonna go this weekend. i live in a very small town and the closes shop is in Waco 30 miles away so i'm just gonna see what happends....but the thing thats tripping me out is the light on the amp is working saying that every things hooked up right but nothing is comeing out of the speaker unless i'm messing with the High-low freq on the amp and when it goes to low it goes "bump" and thats all that happends..so i'm clueless
