Hi all
I am probably best known around here for supplying a bespoke plug & play centre speaker upgrade! After many requests, I am thinking of offering a full speaker upgrade package. This will include:
Focal Direct Replacement Front Component Speakers (includes upgraded tweeters) – 240W Total Power
Focal Direct Replacement Rear Coaxial Speakers – 240W Total Power
Hertz Centre Speaker Plug & Play upgrade kit (highest spec)
I had this exact setup in my MK8 (before adding a Helix P&P Subwoofer too), so I know how good it is and that there are no compatibility issues with the standard audio car. I have read that owners who have installed this in HK cars have been impressed with the upgrade (I’ve not heard in person), but that errors occur, needing a load simulator (Focal offer a plug and play load simulator), but unless someone is keen to try, I think I’ll stick to offering just on standard audio cars.
The Focal kits come sealed, with everything required for installation, including rivets, smart badges etc. No wiring changes needed. My centre speaker comes with everything required too (two min installation).
Focal have very comprehensive step by step installation videos:
Front https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3q3JEmyIDAY&t=225sRearhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-Bk_Pj8M0Q&t=9sCost for the entire setup is £545, Royal Mail Special Delivery (fully insured).
The great thing with Focal is that you can add a plug and play amp to standard audio cars, and also plug and play under seat subs too!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKJb8orZFFo&t=5sI can supply these too (cheaper than retail price), with the two plug and play harnesses, but with a caveat that I’ve never installed these myself – should be a great setup given that the Helix Plug & Play Sub is no longer available - as far as I am aware to install a sub will otherwise require the cutting factory wiring, something I personally like to avoid.
Checking interest first, as this is really just a hobby.
