Need help replacing back speaker of my 2007 legacy 3.0r


Recommended Posts

I recently brought a Subaru legacy 3.0r, I found out that the back speaker is blown and needs to be replaced. I need help to remove the back cover to get to the screws to unscrew the speaker that is already on there and replace it with a new one. I am very new to Subaru's and I have been searching on the internet for ages and been trying to find ways myself. apparently, I might have to fold my seats down but I also don't know where those screws are either!. Any help would be appreciated

ok, thank you very much 
It is a complete and utter pain in the ass to do. You need to remove the whole rear parcel tray out. So you also need to remove the car seat anchor points, seatbelt covers etc. It's not hard it's just a pain to do and once you get to the speaker it's even worse to try and Jimmy it out.

@sobanoodle should know. I've done doors and wagon sub but not sedan one. Can't imagine there is much to it though.

 

Haha negative sorry as mine was a basic Kenwood. A friend of mine swapped their for a Polk DB840 (8" and 4Ohm McIntosh specs). No Idea how to remove the rear deck but I am sure there's a how-to video/write-up somewhere. I have a suspicion that it is just held by some plastic clips.

yeah, I guess ill have to find my ways of getting the stuff out. looked all over the back seats for any types of screws or nuts and there is none. guess I'll have to pull something apart to get to the nuts

Found the official Subaru way from one of the service manuals. It's a bit vague but should push you in the right direction. I've attached the other relevant pages needed to complete some of the steps. 

Good luck...

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
