I agree on keeping the factory kick panel speakers. They are fine plus they have waterproof cones which is an advantage durability wise. I swapped out the 4 inch speakers, Infinity Reference in the dash with 600 hz bass blockers and Pioneer TSG 400s in the rear pods. No bass blockers needed...

Tightened everything up and no joy. Still makes pop noises. Next step is to clean and silicone lube the weatherstripping. I also bought some closed cell form to use on the locator pins as suggested elsewhere.

If the tightening of the fasteners doesn't work, I am going to try the 1 inch closed cell foam fix on the locator pins that has been discussed elsewhere in the forum. Let's see....

Thanks for sharing this. I took my MIC top apart and it appears that I don' t have any of the washers that you show in the pictures above. So regardless, I tightened all the fasteners up, let's see if the pop noises subside. I did do some serious offroading last month so I suspect the...

If that’s possible, that would definitely be the preferred option. Unfortunately I am not familiar yet with Forscan. Would be great to learn more about it.

I was fortunate that I paid A Plan price.

Great question! Unfortunately due to how the packaging of the rear speakers have been done on the Bronco, there is not enough volume in the speaker enclosures to enable any speaker to deliver much bass at all. The rear speaker boxes are so small that significant low bass simply cannot be...

Thanks I was there too. The kickpanel speakers are ok in my humble opinion. There is no need for them to put out high end sound due to their location, and you can get better imaging by just having the highs coming from the dash.

The 4" Ford speaker has bass blocker cap integrated into the speaker assembly. Same story with the rear 4" Ford speakers. If you upgrade the Ford dash speakers, you will need to buy separate bass blockers for them since aftermarket speakers do not include them. The 6 1/2 inch kickpanel...

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated. I mounted the HS8 in the cargo area on the passenger side directly to the floor. I have a rubber cargo mat between the sub and the cargo floor to reduce resonance. I used the strap method to secure the sub and also connected it via the Aux 2 circuit...

Also I put Pioneer TSG-400s in the rear sail speaker positions. Since they are already high passed with the Sync DSP they are essentially tweeters. Decent speakers but I think the Infinity Reference are better. In the front seat the rear speakers don't contribute much of anything to the sound...

I would add a powered subwoofer, which I just completed. I have a Kicker HS8 which is an 8" subwoofer that puts out 150 Watts RMS. I am super happy with the performance. It is not a subwoofer to rattle your neighbors windows, just adds a solid bottom octave to the base system. I did order...

Sure! I used the Aux 2 switch line, which is rated for 15 amps and is fused. The Aux switches and circuits are only powered when ignition is on, so works perfectly with the subwoofer. I don’t mind having it toggled on. In order to tie the Aux 2 line to the rear cargo area you need to remove the...

Yes! Did that

Update! As mentioned in the YouTube, and by others on the thread, its not a good plan to tap off the rear speakers for a powered subwoofer input. Instead I pulled the front kickpanel speakers and soldered the subwoofer high level input wires to them, and ran those to the Kicker HS8 that I...

I just put bass blockers on the front dash speakers. I had a look at replacing the 6 and 1/2 inch speakers but decided not to because the factory speakers have a molded plastic basket that provide a sealed baffle. Aftermarket speakers will likely not have this design feature and a loss of bass...

I am working on installation of a powered subwoofer in the rear cargo area of a 4 door. I need to tap the rear speaker wires for signal and don't think doing that at the rear speakers themselves is a good idea. Does anyone know the routing for the rear speaker wires and the best place to...

thanks I will give it a try.

They did! I removed them and installed a pair of 4" Pioneer coaxials without bass blockers. I can turn the vol up to 25 + to the rears only and they don't appear to break up.
