Just as Matt said>>>>

It's only a sticker, just pull those babies off and send me one. I'm missing one from the drivers door, j/k. (but I'm really missing the drivers door sticker)

I'm guessing the backs you could switch the entire grill, but the fronts would be a problem. maybe find an infinity emblem that fits and pop it on there.

Pull your door panel off and take a look at it.. mine doesn't have those nasty grilles, so I didn't waste my time..
what do you think you're gonna put in there anyway? the stock grilles have such a weird shape, nothing will fit in their place, unless you get out the tin snips and cut and shape the new grilles.
if you really want it to say infinity, just peel off the bose sticker, then make something and stick it on there..
I did that with my focals (the grilles were from a set of Rockford speakers).. it looks okay, but nothing great.
If I were you, I'd just ignore it and not worry about it.

hey matt you got the Active Speaker crap on your rear deck too? or had i mean.
I want to put my JVC grills in place of those Active Speaker ones. and i haven't seen a way to pull those off yet so i'd probably just have to buy a new rear deck with the bose grills right?
as far as teh fronts. I got that plastic panel stuff built on the door like matt's. Not much can really do about that.

I don't have plastic crap on my doors, and I don't have grilles on my rear deck either. ;-)

To remove the grilles on your rear deck, remove the rear deck from the car (requires removal of the top part of the back seat).. you'll then see all the screws you need to take the grilles off. Kaleb installed some 6x9 Clarions with their own grilles on his rear deck and they look great.

those pods are pretty nice. i was thinking about recarpeting my rear deck too. I always though the bose on the speakers were kind of cool though, maybe its just me.

Hey "ngthing"

I got a set of those infinity speakers when I made my trip to the States they sound way better than my stock 4"x6". By the way Matt where did you get the front door panel that looks like that did you do it yourself or what.

Ryan.
