I Added Rear Speakers...SCORE!!!

nobdy_#608 · 07-11-2012, 05:35 PM

would it be a stupid idea to have custom boxes for the mid cubby spots to have 6.5" speakers installed instead of going with 3.5"?
Just FYI still a nooby on car audio but im reading and learning everything i can planning out my speakers system for my Z savin up about 2 grande in the next 2 months maybe more

You mean these?

If you going to add rears and going to have the music loud I would go for custom pods to hold 6.5's over the smaller 3.5

Yea like that but i was think the cubby spot behind that infront of the pillar to hav it higher up or like that if it would be better but thats what im planing on doing for the rears

Here you go

Now offering metra harness and rear speaker pods

hate to bump an old thread, but are the wires ran for the rear speakers behind the seats, so that it would be as simple as buying speakers and connecting the wires?

Unfortunately, you will have to run the wires if you have a base unit. The only thing that's there is the speaker grill as part of the trim.

Or pin outs on the harness. It would be easier if you have an aftermarket head unit. You'd get better sound with the pods over the stock rears. None the less rears aren't really my thing.
