I ran into door panel clearance issues installing the aftermarket speaker on top of the existing foam ring like they do in this video but the good news is that the foam is on a plastic ring that is glued to the front of the bracket and thats what held the factory cone in place around the edges its about a half inch thick and will come off if you pry on it. Once that ring is removed you have more room to work with and that solved the clearance issue for me
For those of you videos wondering if you have the standard pioneer system, all of the wires for the upper rear door tweeter are still installed in the car. They are insulated inside a transliscent green bulb-shaped plastic piece. You just have to figure out which wires to splice
Great video even though you did it so long it's still help me out cuz I add some new kicker speakers cuz the original ones were already bust up and I did exactly what you did in the demonstration and it worked just perfectly and we add Rockford Fosgate 400 watt amp we had an epic Center and I add an Alpine v-powered from 96 and we're bumping a bazooka
not on this model, the factory speaker is actually built into the door mold. Even if you can somehow take the magnet off and unglue the top ring, you would most likely destroy the speaker doing so.
But how do you screw the speaker on that thing like that ? That cardboard round thing it’s just glued and it came off and I don’t see a way of screwing the speaker on to that
the Manuel say 6 3/4 but can fil 6.5. If it helps, the 6.5 door mount that comes with the aftermarket speakers does not fit the hole in a 2002 lexus es 300. I used this method and it was way easier than it looks. this is by far the best method I found.
I bought an adaptive speaker mount and because of the specific spacing between the door and the glass in the door, this is by far the best method and my speakers were trash any way so I had no problems ripping them out. kudos to this guy.
your better off removing that entire assembly all together, and making your own wooden speaker adaptor ring and 6.5" foam cup. Then attach a new aftermarket speaker to that. The factory speakers in the ES are so bad i would pay lexus to just not even include them

You don't need to cut the speakers out ..they have a star screws under the foam gasket that let's the speaker release from the housing
Under the yellow foam gasket?
There are not any fasteners other than the 3 that attach it to the door or at least not on my 06 es330.
I'm I about to installed 6 in a half speakers in my Lexus es 300, 2009

Is there a way to preserve the factory speakers during disassembly?

Can u make a video of how you screw those speakers to the factory adapter
I have a 2007 Lexus ES350 what size are the Front and rear door speaker size? Because i am replacing with aftermarket
Did you find out yet? Do you think they'll be the same for a 09 model, wanna replace mine too. Passenger door sounding bad at times
I Believe they are 6X9 in the Front I left many comments on RUclips videos all they do is like the fucking comment lol but wont say any information
you got 6x9's in the front doors and 6.5's in the back doors i got the same car
But how do you screw the speaker on that thing like that ? That cardboard round thing it’s just glued and it came off and I don’t see a way of screwing the speaker on to that
Can you show how u install the speaker with the self tap screws
Omg! You could get a pair of speaker adapters from eBay without destroying original ones
can you elaborate please, as i dont like the sound of speakers on my es 2018.
Or you could buy a speaker harness adapter and spacer from best buy lol
Can I put 6 by 9 in the back of my Lexus es 300 2001
@@phillyphilly3716 no
Nope, even crutchfield says to do it like this. Thanks and good day.
By any chance do u know what size are the speaker on the rear doors of a 99 Lexus RX 300 ? Are they 6,5 or smaller
6.5

Or go to crutchfield and buy speaker mounts for $5 a door.
