Jimny Speakers

Ever since i had my Jimny the drivers side speaker has been iffy... never really got round to having a look at it though.

Today i got a head torch on and looked through the trim, to see a big rip through the cone :blink:

So looking to replace them with something a little better.
Not bothered about masses of sound and would rather a

Does anyone know what adapters are needed? The PC2-802 looks right ish.

Would rather use an adapter rather than soldering spades on.

Cheers for any advice

Hi Adam

can't advise on adapters, I'd just be using bullet connectors

all I'd say is that if I were doing mine again, I'd be looking to make the recesses bigger to take larger speakers, as even putting in better 4 inch than the standards, doesn't make much difference - I'd certainly consider doing some cutting work and putting in some a135 cms at least - or maybe even leaving the panels off with some surface mounted speakers down there.

have fun

I went for the best quality 4" speakers I could find and then put 30mm ribbon tweeters up near my head to handle the higher notes that get muffled from being down in the footwell. It all works a treat

Ribbon tweeters with inbuilt crossover filter...

That connector looks like it'll do the job, though some come with smaller spade connectors, I'll be making my own connectors as I don't want to modify the original wiring either.

I came across some old 3-way components that I had fitted to my old Orion way back so am looking at how I can get them into the Jimny at the moment. I have some 1" tweeters that I'll mount up high like ZukeFastback and some 4" mids that I'll put in the standard front location. just need to figure out where to put the cross-overs and the 6.5" mid/bass speakers, not sure if I'll get them in the standard rear speaker location.

The rears are also 10 centimeters in diameter; a 13 cm will barely fit with new holes for screws, but I'm doubtful about 16 cm ones.

I only ever listen to the radio on the way to work in the morning, so huge speakers aren't my thing

I'll be fitting 100mm to match the standard... although will probably stick some better quality ones in. Halfruads have some Alpine ones for £25 'reduced' from £50

Is speaker depth a standard? The Sanyo ones are about 40mm deep, and there looks to be limited space.
Websites i've been looking on hardly list any specs, apart from the RMS and Max.

Cheers for the info, I'll take a look, but it sounds like I'll have to mount the bigger speakers elsewhere

If it helps:

Nice one! Good to see the space available before pulling everything apart. It looks tight but I think I'll have a go, might be able to space them out or something, if not they'll have to go in boxes.

It's fine Saves having another speaker thread!

Picked myself a set of these up on the way home today

They look reasonable, and don't appear to difficult to fit using the existing mounts... might have to open the standard holes up a couple of mm, and file the one hole out.

Also ordered a set of these to get from the standard loom to a standard speaker :whistle:
