Well i installed some 6.5" MTX components in my girlfriends fit but they sound like chit!
I dont know whats what when it comes to whats positive and whats negative the wires are all different colors. Is there in internal amp on the Honda Fit Sports, i know on other cars i have messed with, colored wires usually meant internal amp somewere.
Also the window is nailing the magnet of the speaker when you role down the window. What size spacers are you guys running with out hitting the window or the door panel?
THANKS any help will be greatly appreciated!

Not trying to make you feel bad here, but you really need to be more prepared when you do this kind of work. Speakers run on a positive lead and a ground lead. If you switch those connections, the speakers are out of phase. If you buy stereo equipment from a great supplier like Crutchfield, their installation guides tell you what wire colors to use for the speaker connections. You don't appear to have bought from Crutchfield. Try switching the connections on the speakers. A circuit diagram from the Honda Service Manual would also have the information to solve your problem- showing what wire colors are positive and negative running from the head unit to the speakers........

De nada. Welcome to the forums. You also might try another Fit forum that has a lot of members who have posted about their sound system customizations in their Fits, and there are at least two members who are auto sound system installers. Try this one--

Were these wire colors right? Did you get it fixed?
