Need a Pic of Headrest Speaker Wiring

Can someone with an S5 vert take a pic of the wiring at the base of the seats for the headrest speakers and the rear panel speakers? Got everything wired perfect in the dash and the headrest controls working with the correct Metra harnesses, then I turn the CD player on ......... no sound. Then I discover why.








Are the 2 rear panel speakers wired in with the headrest speakers?

I so happen to have my passenger seat in the house while the car is off having the floorboard repaired. I only disconnected the one connector when I removed it. Not sure about the driver's side seat because I didn't remove it.

Thanks! That's just what I needed to know. Do you recall how the rear panel speakers are connected? Were the connections visible like mine are in the second pic?

You are referring to these rear panel speakers (see picture)? If so, IIRC the wiring harness is bundled together with wiring routed along the door sill. I have rubber hose around the bundled wire temporarily so wont damage it. There is one two terminal connector that plugs into the rear speaker. I think its wrapped in the plastic baggy so you cant really see it.

YES!!!! Thanks a MILLION! It's difficult to undo and redo a bad install especially if you have no idea how it was to begin with.
