Another thumbs here from me.

Pre wire swap I set volume to level 23 and listened to a song to get a baseline, ass dyno feel.

Post mod and same song same volume and there is quite a discernible change.

Like others have said it now sounds like a proper subwoofer back there and now with some tuff base.

Thanks to the blokes that discovered this! As countless others have said in this post I can't believe Ford sets them up the factory weak sounding way.

Just bought an FG MkII same prob. Just did this quick 10 min mod in the boot and what a difference. A big improvement!

It's good enough for me. More bass, tighter sounding bass and generally a cleaner sounding system rather than distortion plus which is what it sounded like before the mod. Any help with poor radio reception would be greatly appreciated.

Did you use a non metallic window tint film on the back window??

Hey Clutz,

I don't have any tint yet and I'm reluctant to get any as it may get worse. If I do I'll make sure it's non metallic for the back window. Anyone else with FG MkII ICC experiencing poor reception. Can I get some sort of signal booster?

Did this one the other day, for a mod that costs nothing but 5 mins the improvement is immense.

Just spent about an hour fiddling with the stupid white plug. Heaps more bass in the back seat, can't say it's immensely noticeable up front. Will live with it a while before I decide but definitely can say it's an improvement!

Can anyone provide more info for doing this mod to a G6E? Been trying for a good hour but can't get the wires out of the plug to swap them over.

From the comments in this thread I am thinking the tabs at the bottom of the plug need to depressed to get the wires out. . .but hasn't worked so far (see pic below).

Any help greatly appreciated.
