Picked up some new Alpine Type R speakers off ebay for $100.00. Install went pretty smoothly except I managed to break the trim off the door handle.

I also had to shave off the little nubs on the speaker mount.

Install Time 45 Min

 

I've done it on mine...superglue it or buy new ones.

 

Know anyone that has a spare one...looked on ebay nothing.

 

umn maybe DaveB...call him I bet it will be like $20 or something crazy for a plastic door piece.

 

in my 5th gen the drivers side door one cost me $5.60 or something like that

 

really thats it? maybe i should buy 2 for my hoopdi.

 

how do the new speakers sound?
did u run new wires into the doors or did u use the original bose wires?

if u cant tell im a noob too and thinking about replacing my bose speks with aftermarket ones

 

Cut rings from MDF, rather than using the factory plastic mounts. Your ears will thank you later.

 

those doorhandle cups are ridiculous. I had the worst time takin mine off, although i didnt brake them hehe.
Check https://maxima.org/shoptalk/sub_modi...t2/index.shtml for the product number and order them from the stealership

 

Great I think I can shell out $6...

 

Both of my front speakers had been blown for a while...finally got to me. They sound pretty good, all four speakers now are Alpine Type R's. Within the next month or two i'll probably get an amp to power them.

I had a non bose system and I just used the factory wires...for now!

This is whats currenlty powering the speakers Alpine 9853...
