Re: 2003 TJ Subwoofer and speaker replacement
4x6s in dash, preferably 4x6 plates which use a 3"-4" midrange and separate
tweeter instead of the oval shaped type. Or you can use 5.25s in the dash
with a special adapter plate from
http://www.offroadtoystore.com/Merch...t_Code=33-5100 .
Whichever you decide on, get some XTC foam baffles to go behind the dash
speakers from www.crutchfield.com .
The rear will have to be 5.25s in order to use the factory grilles or you
may use some 6.5s successfully and use the supplied grilles that come with
them. Infinity Systems speakers work well in all positions. Also, pack the
sound bar or pods (2003-04 Wranglers) with poly-fill loosely.
The center console sub is a lost cause. It uses a 6.5" sub that is specially
tuned to the incredibly small enclosure. Just replacing it will most likely
cause degraded sound with any other speaker unless you follow the enclosure
parameters to the tee for the new driver. An Infinity Basslink works well
behind the rear seat and takes up very little room. It also puts out an
incredible amount of high quality bass for its size and a 200 Watt Class D
amp is built into it so you want be trying to cram a separate unit under a
seat somewhere. Just pull the fuse out for the center console sub if you do
this. Your head-unit will drive your front and rear speakers just fine
unless you want ear-bleeding loud, "11th grader" type of tunes playing.
