Thanks! Much appreciated🙏.

Finally first video for rear speaker here I think 🙏 Had about same idea for this and not I got some inspiration when I going to change the rear speakers 🤘 Not really feels good to undo all rivets.

Yeah I was surprised I didn't see any videos about it too. Agree, I didn't want to do those rivets on the door, I would leave the speaker disconnected over removing the rivets 😅

Great video! this literally saved me a $1000, which is what MB dealer wanted to charge me to replace the speaker.

Amazing and unique video bro , I have Mercedes s class w221 , all speakers are blown , the rear speaker are the same as the front . Is this aftermarket speaker best fit ?? Does it over heat the Amp ? Best Wattage ? 8 ohm or 4 ohm ?

Thanks man. Sorry but I'm not an expert in sound systems so when I came to buy the speakers my only requirement was the size (6.5" for this car) and the speaker type (midrange). I got this brand of speakers because it had really good price + shipping and so far I'm very happy with how they sound and to be honest I never heard of this brand before. They were not 100% prefect fit, a few mm oversize but it wasn't an issue. I don't know if they heat up the Amp. 8 ohm or 4 ohm ? No idea what is better, I just got the 8 ohm.

And what about tweeters? How to replace them? Is the new crossover needed to be installed or is the tweeter connection already separated from the mid?

I never changed the tweeters, but I think there are plug and play tweeters sold out there.

6:31 Are you using old tweeter or new? is that connected with any crossover? local dealer suggests co-ax speaker and I am confused

@ZakiGarage

Just putting the old tweeter back on, I dont think I filmed removing it coz it just fell out removing the door cover. I don't know if it connects to a crossover but i think you can find replacements for tweeters on aliexpress that uses the same connector if that's what you are looking for. I don't think these cars come with a co-ax speaker, the factory speaker is a mid-range and so is the replacement I installed.

The easier way is not to remove the rivets, just cut the speaker casing behind the speaker and solder a new wire for the new speaker..use some screw to hold the new speaker..I think this will make the job easier...just my 2 cents..😁

If you go to 3:37 the right terminal in the video is (+) and left (-) for both the old and new speaker. So I think I used yellow for (+) and red for (-).

Never heard of those brand of speakers. I'm not familiar with any of the brands currently on the market. I was actually looking for speakers from one of the old companies I knew sony, kenwood, JBL, pioneer but didn't find anything.
