1991 Honda Accord LX speaker wireing?

I have a 1991 Honda Accord LX and i'm trying to swap out the rear speakers in the very back under the rearview window. I need to know which of the speaker wires that were attached to the original speakers are postive and negative so i can hook them up to the new speakers that i have they arent colored black and red so i can't tell. the back left speaker wires are blue and white and they have a strip through them

Answer:

You check engine light should be on. Goto Autozone and have them pull the codes for free. Post the codes here, that might help. Heck, just last week I thought my tranny was going bad. It was shifting hard and would not shift past 2nd gear (30 mph was the fastest I could go). But my posting the codes here, one of which input/turbine input speed sensor error. A tech told me it was a sensor on the tranmission. I dont usually replace random parts either ( I learned my lesson a long time ago, but everyone insisted it was that sensor). Since that sensor was only 16.99, I decided to try it. voila, car runs perfect now. So I went to thin king I had a 3k transmission job down to a 17.00 part, pretty sweet deal. So post your codes in here, might give a real mechanic a heads up and be able to help you better.
Take one of the speakers that came out of the car and get yourself a 9 volt battery. connect a piece of speaker wire to the old speaker you took out of the car and connect the other ends of the wire to the 9 volt battery. When you do, the speaker should move either out or suck in. If it moves out, the wire that's connected to the positive post of the battery would be the positive side of your connector in the car. If it sucks in, the wire connected to the negative post of the battery is your positive side of the speaker. Does that make sense?
