6x9 to fit rear parcel shelf

[jesse_r]

hey everyone.

i was jus wondering if any could answer me wat is the best way about installing some 6x9's into my r32 gtst? I have just purchased some kenwood 6x9's and am not sure wat dimension spacers they may need and if the room in the back is goin to be affected by the rear window. How would i go about fittin these?

What the fu(k, no you dont.

I think if people on here that dont do it for a living, or havent done it before should be careful what they say!

jesse_r : Go to your local audio shop, they will be able to supply 6x9 spacers for about $35 for singles, $50 for doubles, carpeted. You may need singles or doubles, depends on the speaker.

Maybe have the factory speakers out before you go so they can suss out the best spacer

To take the speakers out, remove the horizontal part of the back seat by pulling up very hard. Now remove the verticle part, two 10mm (or 12mm, I forget) bolts either side. Now push it straight up, there are upward facing hooks holding it on.

Now the tray can be removed, its just clipped down.

Remove the factory speaker grilles (screwed onto the tray)

Remove the factory speakers and put it all back together.

Now, screw the speaker onto the spacer (outside the car)

Put the spacer and speaker into the hole, line it up so it looks straight

Go in the boot, pulling down on the magnet, or get a mate in the car to push down on the speaker, screw into the spacer from underneath. 2 or 3 screws is fine.

Extend the factory wiring making sure to get the phasing correct.

Remove the rear screen? pffft.

re: the spacers - if you go to strathos get whatever price they try to charge you, laugh in their face then halve it and offer. You'd be suprised.
