Quoted from JSC:

I just ordered some speaker light kits and kenwoods for my Sterns. I am not handy with my pins….the process seems easy, but the one piece I’m not sure about is the actual wire connections to the speakers. This part requires some soldering, correct (something I have never done before).

Very easy. Watch a soldering YouTube or two, and you will be fine. Just make sure the solder is shiny when you are done to assure a good solid connection.

Quoted from northerndude:

Hey all, I am finally getting to my lights and speaker upgrade because my GZ is here. Trying to fire up my lights, I have no power leaving my bill validator plug for my deluxe light kit - Anyone know why? setting? fused differently?

(In case anyone reading this thread wants some guidance on similiar issue). Its not a setting. Probably time to get your meter out and some old fashioned troubleshooting. Start with the AC cover off and check those two pins in the power connector. You should see 120VAC. Make sure that the AC connector is installed tight to the cable that feeds the AC power brick that Doug provides. That power brick takes the 120VAC and delivers 12vdc. Worth checking the output of the power brick to confirm its 12vdc. Another step is to make sure that your 5-pin inrow header pins (that feeds each speaker assembly) is not inserted backwards: Pin1 needs to line up on both sides. Look for the tiny arrow.
