Replaceing the speakers was the 1st thing I done in my FG becuase of how crap it was!! Note I had pov sound no premium.

I put in Clarion splits and 2x Rockford Fosgate subs

Spoolax, where did you connect the inverters? This is the part I am struggling, as I can't find the bloody speaker wired so I can connect them up...

So how did you end up connecting the new sub to the factory loom, did you have to make something up?

Im looking at doing this also.. so any help would be appreciated. Im looking at getting the JBL GTO-804.

I cut the white connector thing going to the sub but I checked which one was positive and negative pretty sure the dark blue was positive and light blue was negative and because it was a dual 4 Ohm I bridged the wires and then connected it up to the factory wire so yes I kinda did make something up I also reversed the sub by connecting negative to positive and positive to negative and I reckon that sounds even better. Hope this info helps as im not really good at explaining things lol

Does the parcel shelf need to come out to fit a new 8" sub in place of the factory 8" sub? Or can it just be dropped in from the top, and wired from underneath once the trims are removed?

Just remove the cover on the parcel shelf unbolt the sub and put the new 8” straight in as it fits. To do the wiring you can do it from the boot just remove the trims.

Thinks Nicko,

I've just finished my install. I'll start a new thread with the write up soon.
