some type of penetration lube like PB blaster should do the trick... although I don;t know why you souldn;t be able to loose them since they would not be exposed to the elements... What are they connected to?

Tan and Red are the positive ones
White are the negitive ones

I dont believe in cutting ends off of the harness (thats just me).
I normally would make a small harness from the one in the car to the speakers (again thats just me)

Its easy to make
If the plug end has female connections then you would need to get male connectoins to go there,
Then take some wire and run it from the plug to the speaker,
On tha end you will need to put female ends on the wire
Crimp both ends of the wires that you just made,
Make sure you plug the pos. end on the correct post
They dont have to be that long

You can get a wire crimpping set at most stores. Should be around 10 bucks or so
