Does connector needs to be replaced to work with our C4?

I use to own a 1994 Infiniti Q45T, after I had my Bose Amps fixed I later found out that the same AMp's were in 1994-1996 Infiniti Q45's

They plug right in. different p/n's than the C4 application, but the front/rear speaker size and bass/treble tuning was close enough for gov't work, especially after having one of my repaired units run for 3 month and then go tits up. After awhile, you just want to put anything in place to keep from having to pull the covers off.

"I used to own an 1992 Infiniti Q45 and loved it!!! (another 32valve beast)"

I remember going up against those back in the day with my Blue Oval 89 SC T-Bird
(Side note: This is the ride I had when ZR-1Pete "the Greek" had a sleeper Camaro - in the 90's when we used to bench race at the Gyro Stand in Wheeling, IL)



Too bad I did not own the ZR-1 then it would have been fun to wax the Q45 and leave them wondering what just happened. With only the V6 SC engine in the bird it was a good race with the 45. Do not see many Q45's on the road much these days.

Send to http://www.doctordons.com/ for repair - he used to charge $75 each to rebuild them.
He's up to $85 per AMP and gives a lifetime warrantee...

How much for the eBay items?

Ok, so I figured out thatthe reason everything was flickring was thatthe battery was going dead form pplaying with everything. When I jkjump started the car everything was working right agin... Even had sound coming form all 4 speakrs mmentarily, but really weak form all but the fornt let.. Pulled them all and tried thefront left one in each location, and it worked there too albiet with some static,, so I guess the amps on theother 3 or shot.... I should probably get all 4 fixed, or else the one that is working will probably sound bad compared the the other 3 ,and saw in the audio section that 3 places re recommeneded.. bose, dr don;s and fcsc ..Anyone have personal experience with any of them?

Also. on my front right one the flange on the encolsure where the screws go is cracked, so if anyone has rf enclosure they are looking to get rid of let me know.I suppose I could also glue a pice of plastic onto mine to repair is since it's unseen anyway if I can;t find on.

Thanks
