Anybody Got? OEM Speaker Pigtails

I've got a pair of factory rear speakers for my '77 Cheyenne but I need a pair of original plugs or pigtails to plug them in. New or used is OK. Any help is appreciated.

Is the black connector that they're selling here what you're looking for? I wish you would have told me a few months ago. I threw two of those in the garbage whenever I redid my speakers. I would have mailed them to you for free.

I need a pair of speaker plugs to fit the factory rear speakers like the one pictured. I'm adding these to my '77 Cheyenne. It didn't have them originally but I found a real nice pair I'd like to install. Just don't want to hack it together so if you have a pair of the right connectors, I can use 'em.

I know its your thread, but what are you using for speakers and where are you getting them? I'd like to put better ones than factory in my '85 but I have read there is a clearance problem with a bigger magnet.

1987. Thanks again brother. I will give these a try. I messaged seller on the earlier one you posted but seller said they would not fit my application.
Bedwards, I bought a real nice pair of originals off eBay. I'm not running a big, license plate rattling, thumper, Saturday night in south central L.A. type of system, just the factory AM/FM stereo. So these should sound fine.

I'm confused. Are we talking about the wiring plugs and pigtails or the speaker mounting brackets in the cab corners behind the seat?

He's talking about the female plugs/pigtails for the rear speakers.

My 85 was ordered with no radio. sigh.
I have boxed speakers behind the seat and I installed some 3 inch speakers in the dash with low frequency bypass. Works ok for me.
Would love to have the rear speaker oem set up.
As for the pigtail, I have always preferred solder.

Never thought these would be so difficult to locate.

This is the speaker I'm trying to connect to. Probably used '80's up into the '90's I'm guessing?
I need two pigtails.

It appears I may be parting out my K10 cab since I've pretty much decided to use my 85 C20 cab for that build. I'll take a look and see if it has them. It's a Silverado cab, so if they haven't been butchered out of the truck, I'd imagine they'll be there. I'll try to remember to take a look tomorrow when it's daylight outside.
