I have just replaced my front speakers following your excellent tutorial. All done witin a couple of hours! After weeks with only one of the front speakers working, the sound is remarkable! I couldn't have done this project without your help - thank you. Will chekout your other tutorials.

Been thinking about fitting new speakers. But has always been just a thought. But having now watched your vid. Feel more confident in doing the job. Many thanks keep up the great work.

Loved this video! My qashqai has the Bose speakers but they blew gradually over the winter, thanks for the tutorial I’ll be coming back to watch again when I get the speakers and adaptive ring thing in the post

Nice video, I needed to know how to take door panel off as I have a very annoying rattling from drivers side, so hopefully now I can sort it out

A missive Thank you for these Videos. I’ve just done my speakers in my car. Always wondered how easy it would be but put it off until I found your video. My drivers side speaker blew, no sound for 2 weeks and went and did the change last week. Hard to get the doors off but then easy once you do one. Used the same speakers as they had great reviews, definitely better than factory fitted ones and got the speaker supports. The speakers are a massive improvement on previous speakers. Again, thanks for all your vids. Changed interior lights. And now have the bulbs for the external lights. Not looking forward to that though.

Love your vid's all the updates your doing on Nissan Qashqai your going to have another car soon ha ha😂😂

Thanks for the video. Just did mine as per your vid. Contrary to the previous comment the speakers are a decent improvment over stock in terms of sound quality and physical quality. Better magnets and speaker cone materials. I expect they will last far longer than the cheap paper cone ones they have replaced, Thanks

Fantastic! Just what I needed. Thx!

Dan, please invest in some plastic trim tools. I was wincing watching you use the screwdriver. LOL

Hi dan thanks for a great fitting tutorial. My drivers door speaker had blown AGAIN (i swopped it over from the rear on last time) they are 20 watt speakers fitted in mine. As some have mentioned the base is lacking on these speakers could you recommend better ones pleased as ive no idea what to look for

Great vid 👌 can't seem to see the links

Hi, just had to upgrade my front door speakers as drivers side crackled and gave up the ghost. Followed you video tut only to find the idiots have riveted the speakers in place on a J11b 2019. Not only having to buy speakers and adapter rings but now have to buy a Rivet nut tool and drill out rivets. Grrrr

Drill the rivet heads out with a 6mm drill bit then opened the holes with a 9mm bit. Used a rivetnut gun with 8mm rivetnuts.. used flathead screws. Thunk they were 16mm long

Hi mate, great tutorial as always! Any tips on how to get rid of that horrible squeak that comes from the arm rest on both front door panels? I've tried spraying them with silicone spray, but it didn't do anything to stop the squeak.

I think it's just the build quality of the plastics. Not much you could do really

Any idea if the rears use the same adaptor ring?

Small hint - check polarity of speaker connectors with a battery, most of the time they are inverted.

Hi love all your videos the driver window button doesn't work all the other three windows work from the driver side control but the driver window button don't work can you do a video on it how to sort out this problem please thank you

Another helpful video Dan! Regarding the stereo cutting out issue (Nissan update), my car cuts out a lot and I thought it was loosing the DAB signal until I saw your video about the update. I really don't want to go through the dealer and I know its a bit of long winded process but do you have any links or files to do the update yourself?

@TheQashqaiGuy

It's really simple if you call Nissan UK, they'll sort you out. I wouldn't recommend doing the update yourself when it's free of charge. If it goes wrong it can brick (kill) the stereo.

back speakers are easier - no bolts to undo. Everything is clip on.

I'm planning the speakers' upgrade and since already removing the door cart, I'd like to improve sound insulation. I can see lots of uncovered areas (plain paint, no insulation) in your video. I've found 2 types of absorbers: 1.6-2.6mm butyl mat for rattling reduction and 8-10mm foam mat to absorb some sounds oise. Is there a potential to stick some sound absorbers on those uncovered areas? I mean wouldn't it prevent cart from clipping back in?

There's a lot of space behind the door card but some parts are very flat. You'd probably have to work it out with it removed.

Please help, I have a 2015 J11 Tekna and want to upgrade to the Bose install, all speakers including the double subwoofer and the amp, is this possible? Is the head unit the same regardless of the Bose upgrade? I guess this would also be a job for an audio installer?

@TheQashqaiGuy

Most likely the wiring for the Bose system is not there. I'd look at aftermarket options as they'd be cheaper and may even be better sounding.

My alarm goes off during the night 2017 qashqai have you come across this and if so do you know how to fix it thanks

@TheQashqaiGuy

Seems to be a relatively common issue. Try locking it with the interior sensors off by pressing the button by the rear view mirror. (It should beep when it locks) If it still sounds then it is probably related to the external or rocker sensors.

Good video. Do they sound better.

Hi Dan, Did the speaker upgrade meet your expectations? I’ve replaced all 4 door speakers but feel left a bit disappointed. Sure, there is more clarity and less distortion under high volume scenarios, however the bass is still lackinga and about on par compared to factory shitty speakers. I think the head unit is just not capable of utilizing the full speaker potential now. Also, since we had to remove the door cards, guess if there are no creaks in there? Wrong, there are! So although it does sound marginally better, in my case the better option would have been to install a under seat subwoofer… Whats your take?

Yeah the speakers aren't great but they aren't expensive either. A sub would be a good addition.
