Just carefuly remove the vents(SPINNING BIT)and the screws can now be seen...

[craigvl038]

make sure you close the air vents 1st or if you drop the screws then you have to pull it all apart to get them.

point the vents down pplace screw driver in second slot from top and undo the screw up in the back, use a torch to look thought hte vents first to sus where it is

and use a magnetic screw driver

Yeah was pretty tricky the first time but easy as now. I have the blue pioneer 4 inch 2 ways in there. If you are putting new speakers in you will have to run new wires because the stock stereo uses a common earth for both speakers and new HU's don't work with them.

P.S. the screws next to the windscreen are a biatch LOL.

Its prolly a screwdriver bent 90 degrees LOL we made one of those once.

i was wondering is there a sertain hight between the speakers and the grill ? so i can figger what speakers fit and what dont

[vlv8vic]

isnt much of a gap, i doubt youd be able to jam anything in there much higher that the stock parks. 4inchies generally arent that thick anyway.

This is just a phillips screw driver bit from my cordless drill, a 5/16th spanner and a bit of bluetac so u don't lose the bit.

job done..

Pioneer 4 inchs are the only ones that fit, thats according to all the car audio people I asked when I was hunting for speakers. The magnets are too big on the others and they wont sit in the hole.

I have two-way xplod four inches in mine, pretty much stuffed, had to put them in sideways but hell you cant really see them. Thinking of changing them to pioneers, with blue leds to go with the rest of the interior.



When i remove the covers, i just spin the bottom vent so it squeezes apart (saves breaking it by removing), close the vent and undo the screws.

These are the ones I got, I think they are still available.They are 100w 2 ways



I got mine at ricebarn, was cheaper than JB for once LOL

I got JVC 4inch and just fit, they are 100w MAX 2 ways and Part No. is CS-V422..

There was a choice of 3 brands JVC, PIONEER, Can't remember the other

And have measurements if needed....

Well it wasn't JB back then it was "HIFI supermarket" but its now JB (was owned by JB anyway). around $10 cheaper. I paid around $60ish.

Those JVC look ok Mag, you got em running off the deck like me? Ya can't really hear em much unless ya fade forward huh. They aren't designed to crank really tho I suppose.

Yep running off the deck the same but noticeable enough I'd say, with fade I run 70% back and the other 30% front..
Depends on the head unit I guess but they only do voice and mid-range...
