Upgrading your speakers manual.
Published by jamesgamby1989

Post Upgrading your speakers manual.

Ok to first fit the door speakers in the front you have to remove the door panel, it seems a disaster but is not very hard. there are 5 pozi screws at the bottom of the door which should be taken out and then two 5mm allen key holes under the handle by the window switch, and one more behind a plastic cover by the door handle.
Once all removed you have to pop it off at the sides and bottom from its clips. once removed you will see the speaker. first you un-plug the lead going into the speaker, then using a screwdriver prong the speaker out, im sure it does not matter if it is ruined unless you want to put them back at a later stage but mine came out fine.
I then screwed the replaced woofer into the actual door panel that has been removed and the cut the wires and put them together and covered them with electric tape. the same is then done with the tweeter except i put the tweeter the other side of the door and threaded the wire through, to ensure that the tweeter is fitted properly you should use a bracket behind the tweeter and tighten it so it stays in place, all you then have to do is put the door panel back as it was before.
Repeat for the other side & job done

Any other questions just pm me or write in this thread.
here you go moderator and my prize??????

Re: Upgrading your speakers manual.

check the grande punto section about the standard headunit as a lot of people ask about that but i am not too sure, and the steering wheel controls will be lost when changing headunit but i am sure that there will be an adapter come out for the controls soon.

Re: Upgrading your speakers manual.

Try out http://www.connects2.com, they have an AUX out adaptor there for Blaupunkt head units. I'm thinking of getting the same, my old megane had a cracking sub install in the boot and i miss it, but i've not had my GP that long so i want to keep the head unit. Hope that helps
