Hey,

Is anyone familiar with removing the rear speakers from a 2000 Civic Si? I just bought the car and want to remove the crappy 6x9's, but I'm not familiar with the way they're encased (different from my last car).

It looks like everything has to be done from under the trunk... Is it just a matter of removing the various plastic hooks around the speaker? It doesn't look like the speaker grills will snap off from inside the car either....

Not sure the best way to do this?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

 

It's not easy to describe but I'll point you in the right direction.

You'll need to fold down your back seat.
On a 4dr, you have to remove the side bolsters. Not sure how to do it on a coupe.
Then you need to remove the enter plastic rear deck.
There are three white plastic clip/pins which must be pop up from inside the trunk. This releases part of what's holding the back deck on. It's easy to confuse the other white plastic pins of other parts. (told ya it's hard to describe)
The rear deck is then held by several white pins that the deck is snapped onto. To release, pull the deck towards the front of the car to pop all the snaps.

Once the deck is off, it becomes obvious how to change the 6x9's.

Yes, you MUST remove the rear deck.

 

that is definitely a start! Thanks.

 

does anyone know of any good websites that have tutorials, etc... with pics/diagrams on how to replace speakers for certain makes of cars? I know of crutchfield.com, but it's very general..


Thanks.

 

I may have answered my own question

Here's a good site I found for all makes of cars:

Crap! Unfortunately this site I posted only covers radio installs (not speakers...).
