Sub woofer speaker replacement

Were you wanting to replace the speakers in the OEM subwoofer box, or were you wanting to replace the subwoofer box altogether? I may sound biased, but the best you will be able to do with the OEM box is to stuff one 6 1/2" sub in the top and a 5 1/4" speaker in the bottom. With a new subwoofer box, you can fit an 8" sub in there and the enclosure will still completely clear the seats (not to mention it will definitely move your hair!).

I will search as well and see if I can find that post. I do know that the OEM setup is that one of the speakers is wired up and the other is not (i.e. passive radiator).

 

I think you have to use FOCALS in the hi-fi sub box. They fit with no modding. There is a guy at ABT that works on F-Cars. I have his name if you need it.

 

I think this is it:

JL makes a sub that will fit. I placed two in my factory box and they sound great. The factory sub has a dual voice coil, so you can drive 2 single voice coil speakers using the factory wiring.

 

JL Audio C5-525CW 5.25, you can pick them up for $149/each on Amazon. The stock woofer has a dual voice coil so you have a + and a - wire going to each side. Just take the + and - from one side for one of the JL's and the other + and - from the other side to the 2nd JL.

I did solder a quick disconnect onto one of the cable sets to facilitate speaker installation/removal.

Factory grills fit or you can use the JL supplied grills with or without logo.

 

Does anyone knows how to remove the sub box to get to the fuses box Behring passsenger seat?

 

Gently pry off the speaker grill. There are four plastic tabs that insert into the speaker ring. Try not to break them. If you do break the plastic tabs, you can reattach the speaker grill with some Velcro. Ask me how I know this.

Remove the top speaker (or maybe it is merely a passive radiator dome). Reach in the box and disconnect the speaker. Then inside the sub box on the rear surface are two hex socket screws that mount the box. Remove those screws and lift the box out.

Now you can access the fuse panel. When you put the fuse panel back, do not insert the screw directly under the sub woofer box. In this way you will not have to remove the sub woofer box next time you want to access the fuses.

Thank you so Much

the crackling coming from mine was repaired and here is how. Remove the grills, turn on the music and look at the speaker....the cone has probably come loose and you can clearly see it vibrating at the very outer edge. I used dental picks and gently lifted the outer ring from the surface, took a qtip and applied RTV sealant behind the surface to re-glue it down. Once you get the sealant on, gently smooth it out and let sealant cure....a day should be good. I would be careful and lift even the areas that have not yet separated and do the whole way around. Turn the music on and you should see no vibration and hear no crackling. I first thought my speakers were blown....they sort of were, but it turned out to be a very effective low cost repair. That was last year.

 

Hey, cool fix. But I have two 6.25 inch boxes on order for my J&L speakers I got fro my 348. A buddy of mine made carbon boxes fro them but never got them to me over a couple years before my 348 got hit. So I will fit the generic boxes behind the seats in the 360, I hope

 

Try these, fit perfect, sound great, tight hard thump bass, not hip hop kid bass

I hope the generic boxes from amazon are deep enough and do actually fit. If not, then in the trunk.
