hi:
i am looking to replace the stock speakers on my 2000 v6 convertible.
anyone have instructions for accessing the speakers front and rear?

thanx in advance,
levy

 

thanx greg, those are great instructions.
do you have instructions for the rear as well?

thanx,
levy

 

It's a bit more complicated than that :dots:

That's my pic of those instructions for the front, Greg. Thanks for trying to steal the credit.

haha jk

 

This link has some great information about your mach 460 system. also has removal info and stuff like that which you can use.

Greg, you had to know I was kidding - read the last line of my post just in case.

Also, thanks Matt, that link will be SOOOOO helpful when I install my mach460 setup in a few weeks.

 

so, are you being serious now? this is getting confusing.

either way, I think ^^that post falls under the 2%.

 

Hey, thanks for posting that link, I've been looking for a page with info on the Mach 1000.......


Be careful when removing your rear speakers, in my '94 I accidentally broke the rear deck cover, crappy *** particle board with carpet.....

 

wait a minute!!! you're putting a mach460 into your car?!?!?!? wtf? why would you do that?

 

because I want an upgrade in sound and its a LOT cheaper than installing an amp and a sub, which I don't want to do anyways.

why does it sound so crazy?

 

because the mach 460 stereo really doesnt sound that good especially on a vert. i have one in mine that im going to take out and replace everything sooner or later. and the work involved in getting all 3 amps and all the speakers in, not to mention wiring it all... i wouldnt even bother. how much did you pay for your mach460 setup?

 

well, I know it won't be the ultimate in sound quality, I'm just looking for something with more depth/volume which I know it will have with the extra amps and tweeters. I have a coupe also, and I got it for less than 80 bucks, which I thought was a helluva deal.

The work involved doesn't really bother me, I welcome a challenge

 

hi everyone.
i got everything in.
new headunit and speakers.
sounds great.
the factory system was a PITA to take out (there was an amp hiding under the CD player), and there was alot of work involved in removing the rear speakers.
but a few hours and band-aids later, i was done.

thanx again to everyone here for all the help.

 

sounds sweet.
i hope to post photos once the 18 inches of snow melt.
the HU is so cool, sony CDX-MP70
speakers are pioneer custom fit for ford/mazda 3 way.
i would highly recommend this setup.

i replaced my oem head unit with an alpine 9835 and it sure sounded a lot better. i got rid of it to put a computer in the car though.
