Fg Speaker Upgrade

[Bizkets is Drunk?]

So I finally decided to change over the factory premium sound (lol premium)

I bought kicker CS65 100wrms speakers 6.5". Nice little speaker with 43mm mount depth.

So the first thing was to remove the door trim thingy. Very simple.

after removing that there is 5 screws. They are t 25 star head ones. Well that's what they are in my superchimp tool kit.

Also make sure not to brake the clips holding the door trim insert on.

There are two behind the door insert two down the bottom and one under the rubber insert in the door handle

Just pop the clips and lift the door trim off.

Now before fully removing the door you have to disconnect the door handle cable and power windows and side mirror cables.

Ok so now you can see frauds premium sound.

Three screws and that sh*t is gone but make sure you know which is positive before smashing it.

So this is the first time have used a jigsaw and it didnt come up to bad. I made a stencil from the old speaker with 16mm MDF.

Not the best but did the job.

So that's the fronts done. Not to bad for a lazy basted with fark all tools. So if I can do it anyone one should be able to. Doing the rears tomorrow so ill post that up tomorrow. But all I can say is its a sh*t load better and so much clearer.

You didn't change the A pillar tweeters ??

Whats the bass like compared to the 'premium' speaker ??

[Lennox]

Are they just running off the stock amp? Have you lost a bit of volume?

[Bizkets is Drunk?]

They are a sh*t load better. Straight off the icc and they get loud. Ill have the rears in around lunch so ill be able to give it the full test. Only thing letting me down now the sub.
