Discovered how to fold the rear seats down - very impressed with the space in there, however there are no rear speakers :eek: not in the doors, or the back - it's a LXiPlus - any idea where they live, or would that be on the parcel shelf I don't have ? Is the wiring there already for the rears?

Just not wanting to put the Kenwood head unit in and have no rears - either that, or I could hunt for a Skoda original and stick back in it, don't think the wifey would be too impressed at that option though!

My Felicia GLXi had no back speakers or wires.

Paid to have the new stereo fitted and speaker wires fed through to the back before I fitted some to the parcel shelf.

Thankfully you can rip up the plastic easy enough to feed these wires through yourself

Thanks for that

bugger :( ah well, I have some speakers, no parcel shelf, and I'm sure I have some cable, but looking at the ISO connectors in the Skoda for the stereo, if I'm guessing correctly, there is no rear speaker connectors, which is all quite annoying - ah well

Yeah I had the speakers in my garage already so decided to make use of them

Dunno how they have wired the rear speakers in or if they are piggy backed onto the front ones.

Should just be a case of a new appropriate ISO connector and chopping off existing wires and wiring them back to that then using the rear speaker wires to add speakers.

You may find the front speakers are not too bad anyway.

You may not be aware that as well as folding, the seats can be removed fully very easily, they simply unhinge.

Never knew the seats could be removed - ooo, it's like going back to a 2CV all over again. I'm going to try and sneak a parcel shelf from somewhere :confused: not sure how I'm going to manage that, the speakers can then live in that and I'll just wire it up, as for the ISO connector, I can probably make use of what's in the PUG and stick that in. A small complication that I didn't really want to have to endure - still battling to get the audi bit off the gear box

i have an lxi and ran the wires through the back for them the wires for the rear speakers were already there, in the foor wells there is a piece of plastic going up the sides of the foor well there is a connector in each side these are for the rear spearkers. tom

I shall investigate that then It was the same with my old Micra - that had the wiring for everything already in place however I have a ton load of straw to move out the boot first, and need to take the carpet out to clean it, so will have a nosey and see if there is any wiring there for me

Plus I have a Haynes manual in the post, so should be able have some wiring diagrams too

For some reason my fun has the iso plug wired for rear speakers and the wires terminate in the front footwells

Odd? Then I guess it makes sense, unless they planted the speaker behind the seats at the front. They're going to use the same wiring loom for the Fun and just cut down the bits that aren't required at a guess. Still, you could always fill the back up with amps, speakers, a few hyrdraulics, screens and audio kit and connect them back up

shame, the estate model has standard rear speakers.

not that i use them, mainly because i have this.

The connections for my rear speakers were in the front footwells, tok me and my mate a good hour to find them!

yes, well we have a pram / pushchair to put in the back, otherwise I know where I'd be putting the bose speaker bin (hidden in the loft space as she keeps trying to get rid of it Don't think the wife would take to kindly to that though. To her it's just a car, until she gets to drive it when it'll be her new car, and heaven forbid if anything untowards were to happen then, as she'd complain that her brand new car has a fault after all that time and money I think she's still upset that she sold her Micra, and she never got on too well with the Pug 306, never liked the van, loves my Xantia, no surprises there, and she blasts away on that stereo to her hearts content.

Still once I've sneaked in a parcel shelf, then I might use the rear speakers from the Pug put them in, if no wires are there, I've got some speaker wire that should be able to run up from rear to front with no real issues, and I'll see if I have some sort of connector, incase the parcel shelf needs to be removed. That's the plan so far anyway!

Odd? . Still, you could always fill the back up with amps, speakers, a few hyrdraulics, screens and audio kit and connect them back up

Dun that , half of the load bed is now filled with 2000watts of sub and amp

Cool, that's something I'd love to do, but up here, would be rather impractical unless everything was removalable with ease, although, we don't really have any neighbours to disturb!

i thought i'd expand on this thread a little bit for everybody's reference

drivers (right) side, one large multi way connecter is for the central locking in the front door, then there are 3 2pin connectors, the white one is for the speakers in the front door, the black on is for the central locking in the rear door, the brown one is for the rear speaker

passenger (left) side

3 x large multiway connectors, 1 of which is for the front door central locking, one is for the rear light clusters, the other goes to the fuel pump and the hand brake waning light switch

4x small 2pin connectors (in this photo the black one is obscured by the wiring:O)

black is for the rear door central locking

white is front door speaker

brown is rear speaker

red is for the 'door' switch and is also linked accross to the drivers door too
