    Replacing dvc door speakers

    Maybe I’ll wait until winter when I won’t want to drive it and I can really start taking things apart for a longer period. Ideally if I could just change the amp for a more known quantity, but from what I’ve seen it’s really limited on space and I’d want to keep everything as close to stock...

    Replacing dvc door speakers

    Off the single pair it works, it’s just not as good as the standard speakers which are poor anyway. If I connect both pairs, and wire with the 2 pos and 1 neg that’s when I’ll get clipping/distorting bass and anything over 40% volume or so.

    Replacing dvc door speakers

    Lol yeah that was my snipping/rejoining of wires. The number of times I’ve had the speaker/terminals on/off wired differently etc just been doing lots of testing so far tbh.

    Replacing dvc door speakers

    There’s actually quite a lot of space behind, so the speaker mount actually screws to a deeper adapter on the door that probably adds another 3in of depth again. Its just getting the wiring right or if it’s even possible, I’d be happy finding a good quality 6.5in dvc, only it doesn’t seem like...

    Tweeter is in top of the door, only around 2in.

    Replacing dvc door speakers

    This is everything, the amp is a pain to get to behind the drivers seat, so at the moment this is all I have.
