Less work to do but less space to work on. This is how I did mine. +1 I just popped off the speaker cover, folded the seat down, took out like 2-3 screws and was able to bend the plastic back enough to take the rear speaker out... mine wasn't working at all so I thought a wire was loose or something, turns out it wasn't so I think it's blown. anyone know what size speaker would be a direct replacement? I measured it across at 6" but I've never heard of 6" speakers before. QUOTE(jimmy13 @ Nov 9, 2006 - 2:17 AM) [snapback]500918[/snapback] Thanks for your help lads. Will be waiting on that swap write up ben, thanks in advance. Thanks again ![]() The stock speakers are definitely 6" - ideal replacement which fits perfect is the Pioneer TSE1675 speaker. these are withdrawn but I managed to get some from a german company on ebay. They cost me less than £50 shipped. You can fit 6.5" speakers but you will need to trim down the mouting bracket - but it also means that you may not fit the speaker ring back on properly to stop the panel vibrating. Jimmy - the write up is now on www.celica-club.co.uk in the Gen 6 guides in our forum. |
