Speaker doesn't have smaller spade connector and larger one? My Arc Moto had two size spade connectors. Kinda idiot proof then! Glad you got it figured out, I do have a Rushmore service manual with wire diagrams too if needed.
ah, on closer look I see it's got inserts with screws maybe? Not spade connectors,, sorry.

Your welcome.

What adapter rings did you use? The ones I have, the bracket cannot be used. I don't like not using them, I may get different ones to be able to use bracket. These are the ones I have.

The pic you posted shows the bracket connected to the speaker. What bracket are you referring to? Here's a pic of the same speakers installed on my 08 SG.
