    Question Speakers hissing only when using right indicator...

    Hey,
    When I bought my car it came with a pair of blown speakers in the shelf. Finally got around to buying some new ones a few days ago. Hooked up my new kicker 6x9s, all is good until i come to a T junction to turn right. The back right speaker (i don't think the left one does it) makes a weird hissing noise in time with the indicator, not playing the music at all, just hissing on an off. Only for the right indicator, left has no problems.

    The wiring was all there before so I'm not sure about whether anything was wrong with it. But it's my first install so maybe I messed up... But it was pretty simple to wire so I don't think I did.

    Any ideas?

    Not amped? I'd run new cable for ya speakers to headdeck. Sounds like something is connected to something it shouldn't be

    Nah no amp (yet ). I'd think it's threaded to the back speakers so I wanna have a look in there and if I can't see anything wrong in there rerun some new wires. I have noticed that the speaker wires are run along the brake/indicator wires so maybe something is going on under that little side plate thing. What tool do I use to remove it? It's the plastic bit on the carpet against the side of the car. Doesn't seem to be a screw driver. Maybe an alum key, but it's so far in. Is there some kind of special tool I need?

    Ah cool, I've been trying to google around and find what the screw type is but couldn't find it. Was pissing me off a bit. I thought these torx screws were only for small electronics why can't we just stick to phillips heads and flat heads? thanks for the help
