Having inherrited a 92 gxe my only modification has been to dirty the interior.
What does bother me is the fuzzy sound that comes from the rear "active speakers"
I t is not obvious to me how to remove these worn puppies. Do the deck speaker enclosures just pry off?
Need some advice on how this is done before I mangle the grills and rear deck. Also would like some suggestion as to what size replacement speakers are appropriate for these holes. Not really interested in 12 inch bass drivers but would ovals be appropriate. Will probably stick with the amp that is present [45watts ] in the trunk. thanks for your attention.

no, you have to take out the back seat. the bottom part pulls up, and the back part has a couple bolts.

they're 6x9's

 

remove the back seat, then the rear deck will come off with the grilles.. attached by a punch of push-tabs.

thestock speakers back there are 6.5", but you can fit 6x9 back there if you remove the stock grilles and mount the 6x9 from the top ofthe rear deck. just be sure to put something between the rear deck cover and the metal to keep rattles and stuff away.

instructions for some of that stuff is on my website faq page.

they're 6.5's? i've always been told that they're 6x9's... hm..

 

non-bose is 6.5" bose system uses 6x9. you can install 6x9 on the non-bose with no problems though.

 

okay, yeh, i took at a look at the speakers when i went to bypass my amp and i saw that they're 6.5's. BTW thanks a lot for that .txt

 

much thanks to djslinkyz and Matt93SE
for their interest in my problem and their good advice on my rear speaker removal. special thanks to Matt93SE for his faq , After the speakers I will attempt to redo/replace the rear window regulators the only other thing that has gone wrong with my 92 [only has 54k miles] both went within 2 weeks of each other,

 

if you're gonna try to do your regulators, you should also check out my site (link in my sig) for some pics to help you out

it's pretty easy and shouldn't take you too long so I'd give it a try if you're at all mechanically inclined

 

Man i fought with the back panel of my GXE all damn night last night and that sheet was so hard I don't know how you guys do it but I couldn't get that panel off to get to those speakers if my life depended on it.

 

WTF? it took me about 4 minutes to get into the rear deck onmy newride- and I could tell it had never been opened up.
