redz34monte Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 on a 1998 is it possible to take out the rear speakers without removing the rear seats? Quote
stockgp Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 try popping off the speaker covers in the rear deck. you should be able to get to the bolts through there. if not, alldata says to remove the rear pillar cover and the rear deck cover. you don't want to do that, because it's a btich to get the pillar covers on and off Quote
redz34monte Posted February 23, 2006 Author Report Posted February 23, 2006 no speaker covers. just carpet all the way back Quote
Crazy K Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 you could remove the rear window..... but yeah, you gotta pull the seats. You may be able to remove the deck cover without removing the C-pilar covers, if you try hard enough, but don't break it! Quote
stockgp Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 hmm. i guess so. i never really looked at my mom's lumina's rear deck. 2 or 4 door? alldata says something about rear door speakers, but then the diagram it shows is for the rear deck . if the speakers are in the rear deck you'll have to take out the rear deck cover, and that may require removeing the rear seat. on the plus side, removeing the rear seat is really easy Quote
redz34monte Posted February 23, 2006 Author Report Posted February 23, 2006 monte carlo so 2 door and ive tried to remove the carpet and it just wasnt working with me. so i was just checking if anybody knew an easy way to change out the rear speakers. Quote
ToroToro Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 Unless the newer Montes are different, which I dont think they are, pulling the seats isn't very hard at all. :? Two bolts on the bottom cushion, pull it out...then four bolts for the seatback and it's free. Quote
92LuminaRS Posted February 24, 2006 Report Posted February 24, 2006 I'm not sre if this is the same or not, but on th elumina I just have one retaining strap type of thing that can be removed VAI a crawl inside the trunk... Quote
cutty Posted February 24, 2006 Report Posted February 24, 2006 my rear deck panel comes off just a couple of christmas tree push pins Quote
92LuminaRS Posted February 24, 2006 Report Posted February 24, 2006 I hate thos fucking pins, I broke like 3 of them removing the side molding off my lumina Quote
cutty Posted February 24, 2006 Report Posted February 24, 2006 I hate thos fucking pins, I broke like 3 of them removing the side molding off my lumina i hate the plastic screw looking ones. Quote
92LuminaRS Posted February 24, 2006 Report Posted February 24, 2006 i hate the plastic screw looking ones. Yes, those are a PITA Quote
1990lumina Posted February 24, 2006 Report Posted February 24, 2006 That's because they are one time use in most cases....the dealer will rape your ass for new ones too, I've heard the jobbers are cheap and break easily though Quote
redz34monte Posted February 24, 2006 Author Report Posted February 24, 2006 ill post picks of everything in a lil bit Quote
redz34monte Posted February 24, 2006 Author Report Posted February 24, 2006 let me know what you think[/img] Quote
92LuminaRS Posted February 24, 2006 Report Posted February 24, 2006 ooo that sucks mine are just held in by some clips in the trunk Quote
ToroToro Posted February 24, 2006 Report Posted February 24, 2006 Unbolt the seat and pull the package tray off... There are the aforementioned PITA clips to remove it behind the rear seat back. About all you can do. Quote
redz34monte Posted February 27, 2006 Author Report Posted February 27, 2006 i was thinking about cutting the carpet away and using the cover from the speakers to hold it down and just have the speakers showing. not hidden by the carpet. any suggestions / warnings? Quote
