Title: Rear door speakers
Post by: GastronomicKleptomaniac on 14 April 2019, 17:33:42
I've just been ripping one of the interiors out ready for some welding. It struck me that there's no large speakers in the rear door card. Being ex-plod, not unexpected. But then my ex-demo MV6 doesn't have any either. Was it a cost option on the FL cars? Or am I losing my marbles?

*I am between night shifts and not quite firing on all six, so if it's really obvious, feel free to take the piss. With photos.

(Since the carpets are already out, I think it would be rude not to put a baseball cap-loosening amount of sound equipment in...)

(No Bose in either, if that makes a difference)

Cant speak for the PreFace but all the FL Plods had rear door speakers, unless the Force in question removed them for any reason.

Bose was only an Elite setup, except for really early Elites and CDX's which had a rare Phillips Amp and Sub Base speakers, The Sub Base Speakers were only fitted to the Saloons, on the Estates I believe they beefed up the Front door Speakers to match the Amp for the Base side of things.
