Anyone done the Alpine speaker upgrade for the sound bar??

Has anyone else done the alpine speaker upgrade for the sound bar??
Supposed to be "plug and play" with minor trimming.... I'm ok with the minor trimming but the "plug" is singular on the Alpine speaker and the stock speaker is actually two speakers with 2 plugs. This is my second project with the "plug and play" promise that isn't.
Just looking for the options, I'm not a dumbass but I'm not a speaker guy either.

Are you doing the Alpine SPV-65 speakers?

I looked into these, and it is my understanding that they plug directly into only one of the plugs.

Yes, those are the ones.... The plug on the Alpine is not compatible with both of the stock connectors.... Would like a part # so I could change it.... Will try googling.

Update to the thread.....
Had to order these off of Amazon...

Then swap the pins so black would plug into black and so on.....
Trimmed the first one with the Dremel and a diamond cut off wheel, not too messy but needed to finish with the utility knife. On the second one I just used the utility knife, went thru 3 blades and took about an extra 10 minutes..... Overall pleased but far from what I would consider "Plug and Play"....

I am working on changing the sound bar speakers at this time to MB Quart 6x9 speakers. I will have the pictures tonight.

So I've read that if you bought the Jeep with the upgraded Alpine system, this speaker kit will not work. Looking a couple videos on youtube showing people with the factory upgrade install the kit and had zero issues doing so. Also the Jeep "upgraded" alpine that was factory installed looks totally different than this alpine kit. Can anyone confirm this?
