Hi Guys,

Removing my standard rear speakers on a sII R33 in getting the car ready for window tinting.

Anyone whos done this before care to give some advice or steps as not as not straight forward as i thought..

i have undone the main center bolt... but not sure what to do next, do i rip up the grill (very hard to get off)?? If i do i think im going to damage it....

Is there some concealed screw / bolt that needs to be removed from the bottom that i dont know about?

why cant there be a DIY guide on this :-)

cheers

Take rear seats out. Bottom part first - 2 bolts at front just under lip of seat.

back is another 2 bolts by seatbelt anchors. The push seat up and pull out.

Rear tray has the C pillar trim clipped into either side. just caefully bend tray to get out. Pull towards front of car without lifting as there are a few clips that clip to metal parcel tray. Speakers are bolted to mounts that are bolted/screwed to metal parcel shelf.

My 33 doesnt have rear speakers, only holes where they once were!

Are you trying to remove just the speakers, or the whole parcel shelf?

Can't the window tinting guys work around the rear speakers anyway???

hahaha. my 33 doesn;t have rear speakers either. just small holes in the parcel shelf. and wires. haha.

the dude in japan must of taken them out. :(

Sounds like he's removed the parcel shelf guys!

thanks for the replies...

yep speakers covers came out, was hoping to do it without removing parcel shelf but had to remove it.

I'm pretty sure complete parcel shelf setup was stock SII (Sanyo 30W speakers and covers that had a bolt through the middle of them?).

All good :-)

heh.. the bolts through the middle of them are for compliance usually. They have to put the child restraint bolts in, and through the speaker is where they need to be!

install some mad speakers in the rear (focals)

then put the stock parcel tray back in and glue the restraint plastic covers over the stock grills

cut the top of the bolt end off and glue it so it looks like its actually in place. :-) looks like its compliant but the po po wont no

lol FTW

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.

      Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention

      So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34

      From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
