just put them in the speaker with the radio on and when it turns on you know you have the right combination, it wont hurt the speaker if you mix them up it just wont turn on. At least thats how I've done my last three vehicles with no problems

Yikes!
Lets start by asking, you are just hooking up speakers, correct? Two speakers? Two wires going to each speaker or do you only have two wires total? Are you trying to hook these up at the speakers or at the radio?
You won't have DC power on the speaker wires so a test light wont help you.
Get back to me with those answers and I'll help ya.

Just test the speakers. Hook it up both ways. if its wrong it will sound different from your front speakers. I always have the same problem because no car companies use same wire color codes.
