Oh wow this is easier than I thought I would be lol. My bass has went out on my speakers and I'm trying to learn how to do this stuff myself instead of paying 300 bucks to replace 2 speakers
Hi, I would highly agree with you and give it a shot. Save a little cash, learn how to take apart your car, and pat yourself on the back with the job complete. Good luck you got this 💪‼️
@@LoveByNicole I currently do not unfortunately. Very curious on if it would make a difference. Shaker has the Alpine 6 speaker system with factory amp. I have been wanting to test a aftermarket set of 6x9s and see if it makes it hit harder. Still in the works. I also need to post a video on how I swapped the dash speakers. Swapping the dash speakers clears up the highs and adds some strong mids 👍.
Hey sorry for the late response. I took out the old factory speakers and checked them out and could not find a stamp on them identifying the ohms. The Kickers I put in are 4 ohm independent and are still banging hard daily. I have the bass maxed out on the equalizer and sometimes crank it full volume to hear over the exhaust lol. I would say make the move you will not regret it. Thanks for watching I hope your new upgrade sounds amazing👍
nice vid, but you installed the speaker into the wrong slots! You were supposed to use holes, not slots on the adapter, and slots on the speaker frame. But the screws that are supplied by crutchfield/scosche are wrong. I went to a hardware store and got 1/4 inch longer and #6 screws, with matching washers and nuts. Also, did you check to see if the polarity on the wiring was correct? ( On a challenger forum there were cases where there was reversed polarity), and that will adversely affect sound and speaker life.
Hi Scott S. thank you for the info. I have read about the polarity issue. At the time speakers were already installed. I felt they were missing mid/low end sound. I thought this maybe the issue. I gave Crutchfield a call and mentioned the issue. They offered to send me a new set of the different adapters, and some 6.5” Boom Mat speaker baffles at no charge. I made the swap and installed baffles, but still feel it could sound better. My next step if I decided to go for it would be to add an LCQ-1 audio controller. To hopefully give all speakers a fuller sound and more manageable when wanting to control the sound that comes out of them.
@@SHAKER36 Thanks for your response with update. I also bought baffles by XTC for helping the Kickers produce better low end, even if it's slightly better. Besides that, the polarity issue, and the difference in resistance in ohms. The factory Alpine are supposedly rated at 2ohms, and the Kickers at 4. So It has been said and noted that it will affect the volume output ( lower for the same previous setting.) I also am putting the adhesive foam ribbon around the speaker mounting edges, for a better airtight installation. So much planning to try and do this as best as possible! 👍
@@scotts6596 I have been hesitant on change out my door speakers because of that reason. Right now all the Bass is coming from the 2ohm door speakers. If they are swapped the THUMP will go down. For now I have only swapped out front dash, and back panel. I do not want to add subs, and amps. I LOVE the sound of Rumble.
These are the correct speakers you need. I used 6.5s the link is for 6 3/4 you won’t need adapters. Wiring harness is included. The sound deadening I used is from Rockville Audio. Lots of different brands offer sound deadening material with different sizes and lengths. Hope this helped www.crutchfield.com/p_20646CC674/Kicker-46CSC674.html www.rockvilleaudio.com/rm50rt-s/
i decided instead of the tiny mounting screws and nuts, i used the included sheet metal screws and drilled tiny holes into the install bracket through the existing holes below the slots, much tighter and better mounting, do you use the included speaker grills or just leave them off?
That’s a good idea 👍. Thanks for sharing as far as the speaker covers I did not install. I like the clean factory look. I appreciate you watching have an awesome day.
@@SHAKER36 also crutchfield sent me the harness for the front dash speakers, i called them and they told me thats what i have, i said no, sent them pics of the ones in myh car and they said huh, they will have to look into fixing that. and the brackets were one off, meaning, i line up 2 and the back one was like to far back have to dremel out the hole more oblong to fit them.
Glad you got them to work 💪‼️. Two holes will hold when tightened down properly. Most of the time with aftermarket parts some modding needs to be done to get the look you want 👍.
Since it's been a year since you did this install, have you noticed any change in the aftermarket speakers? Any distortion or blown speakers? The problem I've always had with aftermarket speakers on factory decks/amps is that they're usually underpowered. You can blow a speaker by not providing enough power to it, just as easily as you can by putting too much power.
Thank you for the info. In the SHAKER I crank it up. I can’t hear the music over the Exhaust👍‼️ So far the speakers have hung in. Unfortunately though I put theses speakers in my Hyundai VeraCruz, same size and everything and both rear speakers sound blown. I’m pulling out my 6.5 in Challenger and dropping them in the blown VeraCruz speakers. Then copping the 6&3/4” Kickers. I like my music loud and clear. Hope this helps‼️
@@SHAKER36 That makes sense with the Hyundai. I had the same problem in my Accord years ago, until I installed an amp that actually kept the speakers in their RMS range. I know what you mean about the exhaust. Having exhaust tips that extend past the end of the bumper helps with that.
Hello ! I’m new to the whole sound system thing and I really wanted to add more bass to my stock sound system. It’s not harman kardon or even alpine. Does installing rear speakers help with the bass ??
Hi, changing out just the rear speakers may add a little bass but not much. If your cars radio system is not equipped with an amplifier. I would recommend getting a 4 channel amp and changing out the speakers for some clear, crisp, loud music. I have the Alpine system and all the bass is coming from the 6x9s in the door. If your just looking for head pounding bass you can skip my first suggestion and get a 2 channel amp and a 12” woofer or two. Either route you take I would highly recommend adding sound damping material. Hope this helped👍
Hey bro nice setup. Did you use kickers for the 2 front dash speakers or any other brand? What size opening would you say is for the subwoofer between those rear speakers?
Thank you ! Yes I used the matching Kickers in front. Here is a link. The subwoofer I believe would be an 8”inch. Let me know how it sounds if you add that subwoofer👍. www.crutchfield.com/p_20646CC354/Kicker-46CSC354.html
@@jerryees yes I have the Alpine system with two 3 1/2” in the dash, one 6x9 on each door, and two 6 3/4” in the rear deck. 6 1/2” can be used in the rear you will need some attachment brackets

I’m curious when you changed ur speakers did you have to put in a new amplifier? because all these speakers places are telling me I have to if I want a louder sound because you can’t just change the speakers without the amplifier being changed to
Hi Kyky Penn, I have not put in a new amplifier. I have swapped out both front dash and the rear speakers with no issue. My doors are still stock. The sound is not louder, but crisp and clear. In my opinion I would only install a new amp on the speakers if your planning on adding some serious bass. Swapping out just the speakers to me made a HUGE difference. Hope this helped
@@kykypenn none at all. With the speaker set up right now you can still crank it and get good loud sounding bass hitting music. Nothing extreme but definitely better than factory.
@@kykypenn I do notice a change. In the challenger your front speakers are used for your highs. Your back speakers also play highs and mids. The speakers from factory are made out paper not very good. The Kickers are a bit higher wattage, run at a higher rms, and made of a durable plastic. Any after market speakers would be an improvement over the factory.
Hey Man awesome install. Been looking for some new speaker for mine. Also I've meant to ask, did you have any problems running the car with the catless pipes without the tune?
Thanks for the question Dallas Lewis. When I eliminated the cats, I also purchased the BBK O2 extenders to clear the check engine light. After installing a new CAI filter, I started getting a check engine light. I would unplug the negative terminal to reset the system and it would temporarily go off. I added the Diablo inTune3, and so far it has not come back on 🤞
@@Dj94113 when you pull out the factory speakers you will notice they are connected to the car by a plug. You will need to push a small tab down to pull the speaker back and out. The new speakers I ordered were from Crutchfield. They will send you the harness plug that attaches to the new speakers, and plugs into the factory connection. Good luck hope this helped.
