fitting reardoor speakers help
« on: 15 October 2011, 17:17 »
hi

i have a 1.4 golf mk3 1997

today i got the rear door speakers out of a golf at the scrappies

i have removed the rear speaker covers in mine and cannot find the wiring (with my arm in the speaker hole)

mine does have rear looms in the doors for centeral locking but im unsure if it has the wiring for the speakers

seems wierd they would make more than 1 rear door loom

ta dan

Did the car not have speakers in the rear when you got it?
Is there any screw holes around the edge where you can see if a speaker has ever been fitted there?

run some speaker wire down the floor-plan on both-sides connect to the connectors which are located in the front door rubber grommet which holds all the connections to speakers/electric wing mirrors etc.

you could but it will be a long think as you will have to pull the stereo out as it will have to be converted from 2 channel to 4 ,much easier and quicker to bridge from the front doors . :cool: :smiley:
