Yep. It's just 2 wires. Quick google search will tell you which color is positive and which is negative. Your speaker should come with with positive and negative tails. Cut off the connector and splice positive to positive and negative to negative. I like marine adhesive heat shrink butt splices.

Interesting. Cant believe ford cheapened out on rear speakers. My regular cab was a work truck version too but mine had front and rear speakers so i just had to add a subwoofer to give it some bass

no it wasn’t Ford who did that it was Georgia power, they ordered them as cheap as they could get them straight from the factory so they had to pay extra for the accessories like rear speakers and they didn’t want to do that so I’m stuck wiring it myself and cranking my windows down. But on the bright side it if breaks it’s cheaper to fix and figure out what’s wrong

I always use these (link below), because I may put the stockers back in when I sell the truck, LOL. But.... you may not care if you didn't have stockers to begin with.

Whitey was just giving an option since he MAY put his stock speakers back in when he sells. That part let's him go back to 100% factory. But again since your truck was ordered without them you'll never do that.
