rear speaker

[woa_its_j3ff]

Well with my luck the rear speakers blew today, so I'm getting upgraded JBL speakers.. I know that you have to remove the seats or something (I think?) to access them, and I tried using SEARCH but no luck as to exactly how to get the speakers out. Any one with info, would be greatly appreciated. pics anyone? and the size is 6x9 correct?
thanks.

Yeah the speakers are 6x9.
You have to take alot out to get to the rear speakers.
Pull down the rear seats
All you have to do is unbolt the seatbelts bolts, and then the rear "OSB".
And then the hangin' thingy to hang your clothes in the back on top.
And then unclip the trim, and then take the black plastic cover. [Takes some wigglin' to get out]
Then unbolt the tie hooks on the rear deck.
And then move the rear deck trim out, and your speakers are there.
That how i got to them.

Someone can post up the link how to take it out.... I'm too lazy to search it.

This is from a DIY topic in the Tutorials section. I just happened to have it saved; thanks to whoever posted it.

^ ahh sounds like a lot of work lol. ahh ill see if i can do it. >< .. if not, BEST BUY lol. unless if someone's willing to do it for me for like something cheaper than what best buy charges. or does anyone know a place that's good at doing this (anywhere near downers grove, IL)

I thought that it was a lot of work too, but after I did it once to put my suspension in, I was able to tear apart and put my interior back together in roughly 20 minutes

oh man i just ran into this problem too....how much does a oem jbl speaker go for anyway?

[woa_its_j3ff]

^ 175 per unit. so about 350 for both rear speakers. plus 80 dollars in labor (here) it's about 430 ur lookin at. screw that, ill just go aftermarket. i already got a set of JBL speakers but don't think i want them. might set them up for sale in a week or so.
