Has anyone replaced only the stock speakers in the sony system? Not yet ready to tear the factory stuff completely out. Just womdering if id notice better sound with just the door and rear pillar speakers
For the front doors I went with a Focal PS165V1 Component Set. Kinda pricey...but well worth the bang! I had to buy some adapters as well as do some slight trimming in order for them to fit into the door. I also bought a factory wiring adapter so there was no need to cut any factory harnesses. Amazon had the best price, just look for Metra 72-5600 Ford Speaker Harness. I bought 4 of them, and they were perfect. Just double check your wiring! I included a wiring diagram below. For the rear doors I installed a pair of tweeters from from a JL Audio C2-525 component set, then installed the rear component speakers in the very back of the cab. There is no need to use the crossovers from either set of speakers, since the factory amp has a crossover built in. I used some scrap aluminum straps to mount the Focal and JL Audio tweeters in the factory mounts. One of the best things I did, was to install sound dampening material throughout the cab. For that, I went with a single box of Noico 80mm. It was the perfect amount to do all 4 doors and the entire rear cab, and also had the best price. The difference that makes in just the reduction of road noise was great! Get yourself a good roller as well. Makes installation a breeze! https://www.ebay.com/itm/NVX-SDBP40-...item1ce366bb51https://www.ebay.com/itm/Stinger-RKR...item542b2392e5
For the center channel, I installed a single JL Audio C2-350x speaker. It is a direct swap. Good luck finding anyone or any place selling a single though...they're only sold in pairs. For the real bass, I added a custom built box from SuperScrewSound.com with a JL Audio 13TW5v2-2 sub. Can't be beat for the fitment, build quality, and price! I didn't want to lose my rear under seat storage, so that was the next best thing. Some slight triming to the insulation and vent on the back wall was required in order to get the box to fit just right. I did not remove the vent, but I did use a slight bit of silicone on the flaps to prevent any rattle. I used a JL Audio JX5001D with an RBC-1 bass **** to push it, controlled by an Audiocontrol LC2i. It's not going to rattle your teeth out, but I can crank it all the way to max volume and it will not distort. It does scream and hit very nice though! With it cranked all the way up, and the doors and windows closed...there is not a single rattle coming from anywhere inside or outside of the truck. I got carried away and didn't take any pics of the build up front. My bad! Hope this helps!
