I'M PLANNING TO UPGRADE MY DOOR SPEAKERS IN A 2021 RAM PROMASTER 3500 (HAS SPEAKER PANELS THAT SNAP OFF WITHOUT REMOVING DOOR PANEL. MY QUESTION IS SHOULD I CUT A HOLE IN THE FACTORY SPEAKER PANELS AND USE THE SPEAKER GRILL (POLK AUDIO DB651 - BOUGHT SOMETIME AGO BUT NEVER INSTALLED). THE REASON FOR ASKING IS, WOULD THE SOUND QUALITY IMPROVE MUCH WITH NOT HAVING THE FACTORY SPEAKER PANEL OVER IT "SMOTHERING" THE SOUND ? THE POLK GRILLS ARE PRETTY MUCH OPEN, I WOULD INSTALL THEM OVER A 6" HOLE THAT I WOULD PUT IN THE PANELS. THANK YOU

I have a 2016 Subaru Crosstrek that I installed focal coaxials in for the fronte but took the dash tweeters out because they were junk factory. The sound isnt at all what it should be atm. Was wondering if taking the tweeter out is the reason why it sounds so bad. It's all hooked up to an Alpine amp and pioneer deck.

It would be great to show a video replacing speakers on a Jeep Wrangler roll bar that need to use a bracket

Terry, it's worth trying a different cable with your AUX input, just to rule that out. If this is the factory system (and it sounds like the vehicle may still be under warranty if it's 2016?), have your Chrysler dealership take a look.

Steven, we wouldn't recommend it. It would entail significant alteration of the factory location and fabrication of a mount. Give us a call, and an advisor can help you with alternatives.
