Removing R34 Speaker Cover

[nuffsaid]

Hi

Does anyone know how to remove the rear R34 speaker covers? Ive got that 3D sound cover that kinda looks like a trapezium shape.

Ive tried popping it off and no luck and I have been using alot of force.

Looks like something tough is holding it down

Thanks

its the same as the other cars- the rear seat comes out, side panels come off and the rear shelf comes out.

Dayam thats alot of effort! isnt there an easier way? Thanks Chris R.

My rear left speaker has developed some sort of buzzing, its weird, sounds as if there is something on the speaker that just keeps vibrating, any ideas?

[Chris Rogers]

nope. the whole lot has to come out. think you will find that the speaker has rotted.

Getting the back seat out is quick and easy. The speaker grilles are screwed onto the parcel tray from underneath. the buzzing might be the child safety restraints that get bolted straight over the top of the speakers for compliance (brackets were touching the speaker surrounds on mine so i just removed them). if you're gonna remove the restraints keep them so you can put them back on if you sell the car later on.

Thanks buddy

Are you referring to the 3D sound type speakers? coz i know some other R34s have different speakers

Looking underneath in the boot, I cant see any screws or bolts for the cover, I can see it for the speaker which looks like it comes frmo inside the cabin into the boot.

Mine already had aftermarket speakers in it. Once the back seat is out the parcel tray comes out(not the metal part it sits on). and theres screws that hold the speaker grills to the parcel tray. and yes the speakers are screwed into the metal framework from above - you'll need a real short screwdriver to get the back screws out if changing the speakers too.

the hardest part was getting the child safety restraints off. i needed a mate to get in the boot and hold a spanner on there while i undid the bolts from inside the car.

I have exactly the same problem in my R34 as Nuffsaid.

Can some one please explain exactly how to release the rear seats??? i can get to the bit where you sit your ass on out, but how exactly does the bit where your back leans on come out? Are there like hidden bolts somewhere, if so where? Ive slip my hands through the whole seat and dont get how its held on.

Please help cause i think the bolts from the child restraint has dropped into the speaker so my music is f#rked too.

You will find two m6 bolts ( 10mm hex) on the bottom of the seat near the wheel arches , one on either side . Undo them and then lift upwards and she will come out .

Correctomondo. cept mine didnt have bolts holding that part in at all. bloody dodgy compliance people. theyll swap out your expensive xenon hid headlights but they wont put in two bolts to hold your back seat in. but yeah once those two bolts at the bottom of the backrest are out it slides straight up. one of the easiest bits of a car to take out.
