rear speakers ? was created by biggaz
So theres the rear speaker holes, these can hold some 10cm speakers like the front however you need to dismantle 98.5% of the jimny to fit them, even drain the gearbox oil (joke lol)

So.... has anyone fitted rear speakers in a different location? home made shelf or rear door etc?? just looking for some ideas cos i dont know if the hassle of ripping the rear apart is worth it for some tiny 10cm speakers!

i was going to fit them in the boot area, theres enough room behind the plastic arch covers to cut a hole and mount a speaker.

There may be a lot to take out to get to the speaker mounts but it might be worth it as they wont look out of place. I'm looking to fit some rear speakers to my jimny and I'm just going to buy some decent 10cm ones to replace the front speakers too! Also I'm using my jimny as a van so there are no rear seats in it at the min and it only takes 30 seconds to remove the lower side trims.:)

I was hoping that someone might be able to tell me if there is the wiring in the rear for the speakers or will I have to run some new wire to the head unit?

You'll have to let us no how you get on with it. I'm hoping to order my speakers in the next week or so, so you may have sorted yours out before me! I might try and find the wires for them at the weekend when I'm running the battery into the boot!

Yeah the rear speaker wires are there, they are taped up behind the plastic trim next to the rear passenger side seat. They go to a plastic plug with the 4 pins, so the wires need to be snipped and new speaker wires joined.

You can see my gold speaker wires attached in this photo:




Here is my install:
