DIY: EP3 component speaker install w/ pics
DIY: EP3 component speaker install w/ pics
ok i got these speakers for fairly cheap,so i decided to install them.
these are lightning audio speakers that were made by rockford fosgate, and retailed for about 500 buck a while ago.
i need to get some pics of the tweeters i did those about a week ago, i just cut the hole untill they fit and then put alot of hot glue around the back to hold them in place, but ill post some pics later
door pannel( sorry for the blurryness)

pry there to pop that piece off

take out the 6 screws(4 small, 2 big)

remove the harness from the window switch

pry the silver piece out w/ screwdriver and remove the 2 screws

heres what it looks like with everything removed

pry the blue piece off of the door latch thingy, be careful not to break it. and remove the cable

door pannel removed

push down on the clip and then lift up. or you can do what i did and just pry it out with a screwdriver and break it cause i didnt know how to do it haha

heres my speaker baffle, wouldnt recomend mounting speaker directly to the metal. it also doubles as a spacer

mock up on the speaker. easyiest way to mount:drill hole thru wood and metal ,about 3, then install screws countersink them a little bit so they dont stick out, then put your speaker in and screw it down

stock wires crimped with longer wire to go to the crossover(didnt relize at the time but you not going to need the green wires because those go to the tweeter and the tweeter will have a new wire to it

wires ran and speaker mocked up

door pannel on and crossover installed, need to change the wires up a little bit

everything else installed

dont forget the foam pieces like i did
