Hi there,

I've just successfully installed a connects2 CTVSKX001 aux adapter so i can play my ipod touch through my symphony stereo, using the info provided on this forum - great and thanks! The space behind the two switch blanks seems almost made for the job!

Now i'm eyeing up a speaker upgrade - i'm not after a 'full on' upgrade - i want to keep it stealth and as the Fabia estate doesn't have a rigid parcel shelf (its a blind type affair) im looking to upgrade the rear speakers. I know Pioneer do custom fit OE replacements so i'm investigating that route.

My question is how do you get access to the rear speakers in a Fabia estate?

I've read about someone peeling back the carpet but in my car, this seems to be very well secured to the bulkhead. Ive also spied some torx screws holding the platstic speaker trim/parcel blind support in place and wondered if this is the right way to go. I dont want to go too mad pulling carpet or undoing unnecessary screws in case i find myself in a place of sorrow!

Your help is appreciated.

I think I can help - I recently removed the near side rear plastic trim housing the speaker grill / boot light when I wanted to access the rear wash/wipe pipe.

The plastic trim housing the speaker grill is held in place by three screws - one is obvious (on the end near the boot opening) the second one is behind the boot light so you will need to lever the light fitment out from the side to reach it, last one is in the hole which the boot roller blind 'expands' into so you need to remove the roller blind to see that screw.

Once the screws are removed the plastic trim pulls away from the side of the car - it's held in place by those metal clips things so it will need a good tug!

I don't think the plastic trim next to the rear passenger door needs to be removed? but if it does the 'how to' on fixing a non-working rear wash/wipe will tell you what to do.

nice one, thanks
