Rear speaker boxs for Avant/Sedan

[mcandmar]

Credit to David in Dublin for pointing this out, some Audi 80's have a plastic box sealing the rear speakers to the door trim, others just have a flimsy piece of foam in its place.

Which cars they were fitted to is unclear however i did find them in a 2.0 Audi 80. I have a suspicion they were fitted with the optional factory radios, Gamma etc.

To convert you will need the Plastic Box complete with foam seal, speaker wiring loom with foam seal, and six screws.

The wiring loom is basically just an extension lead that moves the connection up beside the rest of the wiring looms on the door and clips into place.

No luck with the part numbers, cant find them in the parts system, and the part number for the wiring loom cant be found. Anybody know where all the radios and speakers are hidden in ETKA?

i've seen something like that before, I think some s4's come with them as well. If you can seal the sound in good it will help alot, on my 99 v reg passat its actually got a rubber ring that sits between the door card and a metal frame behind the card that amplifys the sound, I can crank it up to stupid volumes with no distortion etc, best speakers i've ever had, better than the uprated fusion speakers I fitted to the car.

Yes but only with 5" speakers.
However, leave the boxes, put 6" with crossover filters and a little bit of Dynamant

These boxes are o.k but put a decent speaker in with sound deadening that can use the door volume and there is no contest.
