Finally removed my centre speaker from my SV6.. sounds sooo much better now!! (No more vibrating!!)
Felt like i was gonna break something while i was doing it but all worked out fine :)
Now just need to put a decent sound system haha

Verdict.. Anyone who does have a centre speaker.. make sure you take it out!!

I removed the factory centre speaker and replaced it with a Polk 4".

I left mine in there but disconnected it from the sound system. I use for my communication gear thats in the car.. I would like to fit a better quality one but cant get one small enough to sit properly without having to make a spacer.

I think you can get 2 for about $100. I got an installer to supply the speaker and he wraped the mounting plate with foam so it doesn't vibrate and he soldered wires and terminals to it so it could just plug it in. If you have a dual voice coil set up a single voice speaker is fine I just used the positive from 1 channel and the negative from the other channel. Depending what way you wire the speaker up will affect how powerful it is in a dual voice coil set up. It's made a huge difference, there a photos of it installed in my album on my profile. 4" Speakers are a bit of a tight fit to get in so be patient.

Yesterday (Sunday), i finally had some spare time to disconnect the center speaker, but the thing was that i didn't have a small screw driver so it won't hit the window, so i had to take off the head of the screw driver and use my strength to unscrew the screws, surprisingly they were easy to take out. But the thing was, after i took out the 2nd screw my cross screw driver head fell in where the hole was of the speaker (grrrrrrr). in the end i had to do exactly what that dude did on tv from supercheap auto with the rattling.
Took me 3 hours to slowly take all the parts off the whole dash board...... The end result was that it fell so far back that i couldn't reach it.... even more back than the audio head unit. So i gave up in the end and put the car together.
I drove down a street doing 60km/h and at the lights pressed brake, at that moment i heard the little metal screw driver head fall down from where it was and ended up on the passenger side ( i had forgotten to put the plastic back from that side).

Out of frustration all i could do is laugh.
