I think you may find that there are no speakers in the rear enclosures- mine are speakerless

Thats correct Pete, they where an optional extra, but I believe from the threads I have read, that the wiring loom is in place to connect to if you can get the correct connectors, and have very thin hands

I have speakers in the back and they dont work or at least the rear nearside doesn't, I have moved the panel and it is there I just cannot bothered to put it right cause if I do the kids are only gonna say turn the speakers off in the back cause they mess with our i pod. The fornt ones will do. I suppose it must be the wiring. Happy motoring.

If the loom is there then your away
If you have to run cables - far more complicated
You could check behind the radio that you have 8 similar looking cabls running off to speakers or 4, that will answer your question

You will have several cable to look for from the radio connection block
Red, Yellow and Black are your power connections
Blue will be a remote switch on lead
you may have one or two more for interconnection to the lights etc.
Then the speakers
White / white black stripe pair
Grey / Grey black stripe pair
are your front speaker outputs.
You will be able to follow these by sight to a connection into the loom
the other two pairs are
purple / purple black stripe
green / geen black stripe
these are your rears.
They will run in the same bundle at the back of the radio, but when connected to the car can you see that running up into the loom????
If not you will have to add them through the car.
