REQUEST: Rear Speaker Cover

zero610 · 05-29-2009, 04:12 PM

If someone could do a rear speaker cover remover DIY, that would be great. It is tough! I tried to use the service manual to figure out what needed to be removed but I still couldn't get two parts of the cover lose. If no pictures, detailed instructions would be a huge help. PLEASE...someone!

Are those rear speakers functional in the base? If seems that if I adjust the fade for rear only, nothing seems to come out. If they don't work, can working after-market speakers be dropped in?

The base model does not have rear speakers, only the Touring model (which comes with BOSE). Also, I would really not spend time dropping money into rear speakers, you will also have to run wiring as it is not there in the base model.

It's pretty simple to take out, it's all clips you can do with your hands, but I won't be able to show you until tomorrow due to no light

So, sounds like the leads aren't there in the wiring harness.
If I get the radio out, are there any outputs to run wires from? I went back to the dealer and felt stupid about the rear speaker thing. Then felt kinda aggravated about no rear speaker at all. How tacky. Not what I expected from Nissan at all.

From the stock harness there are no rear speaker outputs on the wiring harness and not sure which ones are for the rears. If you install a new head unit the new harness has rear outputs already.
