rear speakers (for starters anyway)

[oscardoo]

hello all, we've owned 'stan the van' a green 2.5 td autotop since last april & have been keeping a real low profile as we're clueless on al things mechanical and he's been running kike a dream, but we want to fit some speakers to the rear grilles as it appears we don't have any?!
he's an early 'm' plate with split rear seats so i don't know if that has a bearing??
i tried to pop the grilles off earlier to have a look at what we needed / how to do it, but it didn't seem that simple, are there speakers? is there wiring? how do we remove the grilles, etc etc???
we're based in doncaster, i work in sheffield (bongo central) so hopefully some kind soul can come to our rescue.
as i said we're clueless but want stan to be all he can be.

thanks one & all for sticking with me.....

The grilles don't just pop off, unfortunately. They are held on with 'plastic rivets' which are melted over on the rear side.

You have to un-bolt and remove the rear seats, then un-clip the side panel to get to the speaker mountings inside.

No idea if there will be wiring waiting for you there - only one way to be sure though.....

thanks for the prompt response, sounds like a job too far for us though.

the kids will have to make do with ipod earphone entertainment...

Some bongo's dont have rear speakers or wiring to them, mine didn't

cheers dave, i'm guessing mine hasn't & won't.

why dangle the grilles, cruelty of the highest order!

You may see a white 2 wire connector block behind the grill.. If you do you might have the wiring in place...??
