Coupe rear panel speaker upgrade

[Greg_S]

Im tempted to change the rears in mine again for some better speakers using your improved guide, but have been reluctant to make front door builds so far because I didnt want to mess up the front door cards

IMO improving the rear speakers is the way to go first before modding the front door panels. I did the same as Graham using 5.25 speakers which being a little smaller were less critical to fit.

To get the best bass it is vital to seal the speaker to the panel making it airtight all the way round either using dense sticky foam like Graham did or silicon gasket maker which I used.

I know Graham used better speakers, but even my £20 Sony's sounded so much better than the OE Nokias. It's the best value for money mod you can make to our cars for improving the sound quality.

Yeah the blaupunkts that I fitted are a big improvement on the original ones but would like a bit more
