[@crystaledwards583]

Thank you for the video! It gave me the confidence to tackle fixing the speaker myself. The bass was making the speaker crackle and I couldn't stand it so it had to be done!

[@jamesbutler7637]

Thanks for taking the time to make this excellent video. I really appreciate it. Changed my door speakers using your video with no problems at all. I have a 2003 Chev S10. Thanks again. JR.

[@deadicated96]

Thank you so much for this video! I have a 2001 Chevy Blazer Xtreme & this helped so much. Now I can buy myself some speakers & be on my way :)

[@T3CHNOskillz]

you have just saved my life. i just bought my first car today (2000 4x4 blazer) and had no idea how to do this (i love bass) and you probobly saved me $300. thanks so much

[@T3CHNOskillz]

thank you

[@barbiesawada245]

Ended up buying my Pioneer head units and speakers from Crutchfield. They offer excellent warranty and I didn't want to use Pioneer speakers so I upgraded to Infinity Reforence speakers for the doors and dash. Plus for a added amount, they wired the plug from the radio to the adapter for the factory wiring. I'm happy using them, customer service is excellent and no their not paying me for this plug.

[@geraldsmith9356]

Great video ! I have ordered two speakers and plan to follow your directions exactly. One suggestion which you may want to try is I bought a kit of silver solder which is the solder plus a small bottle of liquid flux. Cost less than ten dollars. It holds like it was welded. Thanks for your easy to follow video. t

[@craighall2141]

Excellent overview. I am just now looking to swap out factory door speakers in my 04 Envoy. Previous owner put in a high end Kenwood head unit but left the factory speakers "as is". Again...thanks for the tips on panel removal.

[@corbinhessler1032]

so much help man. im gettin my blazer wednesday and cant wait for it. deffinatly doing pioneers too

[@garyvale8347]

I have a 4 door 2000 Blazer ( power windows ) and just changed out my 6.5 " front door speakers ....do you know anything about removing the rear door panels ( going to replace those speakers next ) ......are they about the same amount of work as the fronts...harder or easier ...and are there any rear door speaker replacement tips you can offer .........thanks much

[@isaach6695]

Great video. Thank you for taking the time to get this video recorded and the t10 and 7mm thing really saved me time! Got 1 of mine done in 40 minutes! Exact same year and model, my wires were a bitch to get off, glad i shouldn't have to for a while now for 1/4 of it haha. Also i didnt watch this before buying my speakers and reading the comments i went for it seeing that other people didnt need a new bracket, i could've used one, but the speaker i got came with special little tiny corners of metal with 2 different sized holes so i could reuse the old screws and somehow actually managed it to just barely fit, and that was a boss 6.5 inch 150-300 watt speaker. The rear i have are a bit bigger they seem actually maybe so they may fit perfect. Theyre pyle 300 watt 6.5 inch. The boss seemed like 6 inch to me where as the pyle is 6.75

[@InfiniteRespecto]

Do you need to remove the bracket or did you only do that because you had new ones? Also do new speakers come with a connector do you don't have to solder the wires?

[@Bwk91291]

If you remember when you did this, how close was the new speaker to the cover built into the door? I’m doing this same thing but I want to cut the cover out the door and install the ones that come with the speakers? Do you think that would work?

[@350toocute]

Hey mark great videos.I have a question you maybe able to help me with.But I have a 2001 ls blazer I wanted to change out my front dash 4x6 speakers with the pioneer 3 way speakers.But to my surprise, I don`t have speakers I have tweeters instead.Can I use the same wires that`s connected to the tweeters to hook up the pioneers?Crutchfield said I could, but not really sure on this one.

[@barbiesawada245]

Should be okay , GM uses special sized connectors, so make sure you get the adapters or know which is positive and negative if you cut the factory leads off...

[@bobbiesawada9460]

Hope you do a video on the front dash speakers....

[@willmo1725]

You dont have to remove the electical connectors from the switches. You can get the entire thing through the hole to remove the door panel.

[@jerfle7787]

My 6.5" fit just fine using the stock brackets.

[@outdoorsBOWKILLER2]

I was wondering with the original bracket do you think i could install some 6.5" Kicker door speakers in the same original bracket??

[@vnvfan6413]

At first I was like, "quality speaker" you idiot, but then realized that was the speaker you just pulled, lol. Then you twisted the wires and I was like "is this guy really going to do it that way?" but then you pulled out the solder and heatshrinks as well, so I ate my words again. Then disturbed came on and I was like, "alright, you're fucking awesome actually!" Thanks for the vid. Didn't help me because I got the wrong speakers but will definitely follow your video when I return these and get the right ones.

[@donniesirry2357]

Thank ya i just got a 01 s10 im goin to have to replace every speaker in it even the dash speakers is there a certain way to change them?

[@whereswaldo1887]

Do u have to instal a new bracket or will the old one work

[@350toocute]

Instead of cutting the factor speaker wiring harness..I just bought the speaker wiring harness kit from cructhfield.com.That way all you have to do is plug in the wiring kit to each factory wiring harness.Then just plug in your speakers.

[@MikeySocks]

Great vids. Just a question about replacing the stock speakers in the front and rear doors......i was told that there's a adapter for aftermarket speakers for the front doors....is that true?

[@bubbalee2340]

Mark jenkins when you installed head unit was there a factory amp?

[@erikm2892]

Hello Mr. Mark. Wondering if you could tell me what size speakers fit in the front corners of the dash... :) please and thank you

[@erikm2892]

Thanks dude. You do much with subs?

[@LazyLawrence]

where did you get the new speaker housing. cant find it online.

[@luvdisturbed1122]

Love how you use Disturbed to test your speakers lol

[@kurtthomas891]

hello mark jenkins, i have the exact same blazer as you, and i notice you mentioned your air vents always blowing out air all the time, well mine does the same thing i was wondering if you could make a video to fix it or explain to me how to do it through a comment, would be greatly appreciated.

[@henrycamacho7146]

Can you show how to install tweeters please

[@jwest88]

Looks like I should invest in a soldering iron. I don't own a heat gun either or a hair dryer, if I can't borrow one I may need to grab one of those too. I want to replace the speakers in my 99 corolla. They're fine but music is such a big part of my life and I drive to work 5 days a week, so I figure it'll be worth the small cost and time to do the upgrade. My passenger side rear window is also very lazy about going up after being lowered. I should replace the motor in there soon too. Thanks for the video.

[@OGK_Show]

This is an excellent video. Complete with great tips. Thank you!

[@TheBillg619]

great job, thanks for the info helped tremendously

[@RyanLee1986]

Could I just cut the stock grill out, and mount the new speakers directly into the plastic door panel so I could use the grills they come with? If so, what size do you recommend?

[@hunterwade40]

I have a 2000 Blazer and I want to replace the stock stero. How do I take off the front panel?

[@shortstack1757]

how do i remove the dash speakers in my 2003 blazer? i have new 3.5" kickers to replace them. what else and i use if i do not have a cool air hammer?

[@jasonbirdwell6342]

The 6.5 in speakers will fit just fine in the factory bracket without using aftermarket mounts. I have a 2000 blazer they fit perfect in the factory bracket just a little FYI.

[@jasonbirdwell6342]

Yea i thought i'd give it a shot you can get the plugs to fit the factory plugs on ebay for the front so there is no cutting involved. I think they were around 3.50 for the pair. Mine sounds 100% better now i used to install stereos all the time in all kinds of vehicles.

[@garyvale8347]

I need to replace both front door speakers ( 6.5" ) in my 2000 Blazer ( power windows / locks ) .......does anyone know if I can just loosen the bottom pins of the door panels , then pry and wedge the interior panel outwards to gain access the speakers , rather than completely removing the whole door panel...thanks

[@coldgold49]

02 blazer...do these speakers sound great with the stock radio/player?

[@marcadesthornton4398]

Would 5/14 speakers fit?

[@xtreker15]

You said you replaced your radio with an aftermarket one, I was curious if I could use these speakers with a OEM radio?

[@GarrestheWarrior]

Very helpful

[@yhwhtlc9217]

FYI,, I have a 98 GMC Jimmy SLE,, the driver side master control board you do not need to unhook the wiring harness from it, ,the entire board can easily slip down thru the door panel hole....

[@TLF43]

wow, wish I would have seen this earlier today. thanks for the tip though

[@FG_Flex]

Mark Jenkins at 12:10 what are the clear things called that connects the wires to the speaker

[@Snowman3g]

I have a 1997 bravada and just grab some bose speakers at a junk yard from a 2000 bravada the rear speakers did fit the bracket but the front ones look like they made need a different bracket I hope not. I thought the Bose speakers from newer Bravadas fit mine

[@debbeen947]

98 blazer owner bad dr side speaker good help thanks

[@steviekirton9289]

Haha my bad, I just seen the size in the title. Thank you!

[@snarlingrabiddog5150]

You don't need to remove the plugs for the windows, locks, mirrors and side mirror selector - there are prongs on each module that are MUCH easier to free up than those darned connectors. GREAT video. I got my speakers in. I replaced them with new factory ones. They were better than the $70.00 kickers at Walmart :)

[@SuperJeremi10]

can someone help me on what speakers are good for these old gm cars i have a 99 tahoe i put in 2 kickers in my rear doors but the tweeters are scratchy what do i do they are hooked up correctly im still using the oem head unit which is working correctly the issue didnt start till i replaced the speakers and the 2 front door speakers work great still no noise just an occasional pop from wearing out the back 2 blew out thus replacing them but i wanted something with added base and sound quality without having to add amps the kickers have a rms of 60 i put 2 4x9 boss speakers in the very back roof that preform perfectly they are rms of 50.

[@cannabine413]

omg we had this car bran new and the speakers sounded really good back then they where not shit at all

[@RodknockRhett]

You probably have the Bose system which is actually a very good component setup involving 6 3/4 door subs and 3’ mid/tweeter drivers in the dash. It’s a decent sounding setup. The guy in this video has the crap base setup that was standard.

[@freakyflow]

A little help with your video : You don't have to undo all the power window clips the whole unit slips out of the hole in the door if you turn it side ways Also on these trucks they have a great spot near the top left for tweeters which you can add on when doing your door speakers Add a Bass blocker on the positive wire and you get only highs adding to a 6.5 that does mid range and bass really makes a difference in clear crisp sound But thanks for the video ..I have to run out and get a T-10 ..only have a T-20 : (

[@doomsayer559]

Easy upgrade for anyone with a 95+ s series... Alpine components, inline bass blocker included. Fit the woofer and trim the tweeter plates in the dash to hold the larger Alpine tweeters. Hell of a difference. I know, I know the tweets refract off the dash blah blah. But if you're an audiophile I'm sure you can figure out door panel mounting.

[@doomsayer559]

Refract off the windshield I mean. lol

[@stickit2theman1]

Doesn't your door have a moisture barrier? I wonder if it was stuck to the door panel...

[@jessecarson7644]

Do Ihave to get new brackets? or can u just use the stock one's?

[@FPapiSalOC]

+Jesse Carson I would also like to know. I don't want to spend money unless it is required to purchase new brackets.

[@5thheldrightout]

ya actually don't need the aftermarket bracket, hust drill new holes for your 6.5 speaker

[@raquelgaray4272]

Hi my radio in my trailblazer is squealing and I really dont know if its the radio or the speakers..please heeeeelllllp... should I replace the radio and the speakers?

[@raquelgaray4272]

I think so this is what happen I turn on the radio or put a cd and work good 5 min later it wont sound then squeal very loud and the speakers don't sound.. even when I turn off the radio it's squealing time..

[@raquelgaray4272]

Oh I forgot it have the same fabric radio and speakers

[@xzx4020]

What are negative and positive for front and rear

[@RobertM-n2t]

Did you find out I need 2 know

[@Randylahey1]

Will this be similar to a 98 Altima?

[@igopeeintoilet1]

Is there a reason you changed the bracket for the speaker? Are they an odd size or something?

[@mikepeters4228]

***** What is the name f the bracket u used for your speakers.

[@FPapiSalOC]

+Mark Jenkins They are needed for Crutchfield to make more money.

[@1BrendanBrown]

should you disconnect the negative terminal on the battery?

[@anthonylogan5257]

Brendan Brown not necessarily. That should only be done in the event that you are changing a larger component such as your head unit (stereo). The speakers don't have power to them unless the radio is on, or if you have an amplifier run to them.

[@DannyJustiniano]

Does the battery have to be disconnected before trying this? Does anybody know??

[@sergiooregel8291]

2002 s10 pickup I have the speakers but I think I need the brackets where do I get them?

[@FPapiSalOC]

+sergio oregel E-Bay they costs about $12 shipped.

[@povanator]

very informative. 'preciate it!

[@arnulfo87]

Jason Birdwell what plugs you talking about?

[@mhopper71]

Dems sound good buddy!

[@domenickcerrito4726]

do u know where the other two speaker are in the car or the subwoofer is

[@domenickcerrito4726]

thanks

[@kurtthomas891]

awesome videos as well:) thumps up keep up the good work!

[@MikeySocks]

Great ..thanks!

[@michaelanthony4837]

you mentioned something about 6x9's at the end, I dont think i quite understand, are there 6x9s somewhere in the vehicle. If so i have a really nice pair of alpines that i'd like to install. Happy New Years! :D

[@michaelanthony4837]

4x6*

[@michaelanthony4837]

Thanks Mark!

[@MikeySocks]

Just looked on crutchfield...says brackets come with each with purchase of the speakers

[@MikeySocks]

***** Yes....the same speakers you used in the video.....my 97 requires brackets in front and rear......speaker sets are 50 each with bracket included.....can look around for separate prices on different sites and see what I find

[@okstate999]

According to every chart I have looked at, brown is positive and yellow is negative.

[@thaXmobster]

im new to audio so if the speaker went in on the driver side door then what goes on the other side passenger side ?

[@thaXmobster]

ok cool thats what figured but i just wasnt too sure though

[@jimmygangster]

looks easy enough to do. mine were blown when I bought it and rattle like shit.. >.> also one thing I hate about this car is where the hood pop lever is.. I can't count the amount of times my foot so much as touched it and popped the hood as I was getting out -.-

[@brentondarville8194]

I noticed you used the brown as your negative wire, in most GM vehicles Brown is your positive and Yellow is your negative. In most applications like you mentioned the darker color might be negative.

[@RossBoss90]

***** u ever find out if brown is negative or pos? Just bought this truck and cant find this info anywhere not even haynes wiring diagram

[@RossBoss90]

How would a guy test for that without pulling his deck unit out?

[@RossBoss90]

Brown is positive checked with cont test with mulimeter thx forthe vid tho make sure u make an anotation

[@jeffreyallen6091]

How about the right side wires? I think the dark blue is + I could be wrong

[@steviekirton9289]

what size speakers?

[@T3CHNOskillz]

Is the bass from those speakers good or just normal?

[@zbib43]

Bass from 6.5s are going to good ok/good, when ur really looking for bass ur gonna have to look into subwoofers.

[@T3CHNOskillz]

i ended up putting a subwoofer in my car. the speakers are for good highs and vocals now. i got a video on my youtube channel of it

[@shakeyjuntislit4211]

T3CHNOskillz that's all that I'm installing these 6s for. Vocal clarification. My two 2400 12s takes care of the rest, lol.

[@sweetkellymay]

Why do they say, in all these videos that you have to unhook all the wiring from the door panel switch.. Pop off the switches from the armrest, pop off the door panel..The switches slide right through the opening. No need to unplug anything..

[@vnvfan6413]

So that you can fully remove the door panel so you aren't trying to work with it in your way?

[@offroad.warrior.official2594]

The only time having no power locks and power windows is convenient

[@Bassin_withaustin]

My speakers in my 2001 chevy Silverado I got yesterday are blown it has 13,000 miles on it sad

[@ScaleModelBuilder]

Where are the stock Tweeters located?

[@ScaleModelBuilder]

Does the Dash actually have 4x6's in it? Or don't they?

[@ScaleModelBuilder]

I read on a forum that they replace the tweeter and mount in the dash.

[@danielmsignorini]

where did you get the brackets? i cant find any for my 96 jimmy anywhere.

[@danielmsignorini]

+Mark Jenkins not yet I'm still waiting for them to come in

[@baldy194859]

no, driving around for 2 years with the old speakers don't make you old, just you don't have the money for new speakers !

[@misterdinkly]

What else besides speakers does a guy need to do the job? As far as connectors.

[@misterdinkly]

***** Ok, so I don't need a special wiring harness?

[@misterdinkly]

***** Ok, so I don't need a special wiring harness?

[@misterdinkly]

***** Awesome, thanks for the video and replies.

[@misterdinkly]

***** Actually, one more question.. Does wattage on speakers mean anything? 260W peak power40W rated powerDo speakers handle a factory radio with no problem or do I have to find correct watts depending on radio?

[@anthonylogan5257]

Mark Say you have a radio that has 50w to every channel. (Front left, right, etc.). But you put 20w max speakers on them, you could wear out the speakers prematurely. I have a 54wx4 stereo and I use 350W max door speakers and they work just fine.

[@xzx4020]

Yellow is negative

[@vnvfan6413]

Usually black is negative, especially with older wiring, forget about boats though... Any wire that has a dotted line on it is usually positive. Red is usually positive. If you have something stupid like yellow and brown, brown is usually positive. White is often negative also. If you don't know, just test it before soldering it. This is what I know from being lazy and not looking it up. Haven't had a problem yet.

[@MikeySocks]

I have a 1997

[@slednck3]

i feel like u dint have to change bracket

[@slednck3]

lol all my speakers in my sonoma are blown besides one door speaker but this did tell me if a 6.5 will fit

[@Bighotwheelhunter]

slednck3 can you use the old bracket

[@legendvalley]

WTG

[@austinfisher8857]

have you ever thot about putting subs in your blazer

[@taragrace3537]

I hate to look like a stupid girl, but this is my first time diy-ing anything on my car and I'd rather not screw it all up haha. I bought the same speakers for my 09 cobalt, and I was wondering (here's the stupid question lol) do I have to solder the wires together? Thank you!

[@taragrace3537]

***** Just installed them, decided to tape the wires, and they sound amazing! Thanks for all your help!!! :)

[@pinkishdiamondz]

Unfortunately...I understand where she's coming from. After being told by my father how fat (I wasn't) I was, the first man that told me he loved my size got my virginity. This is a case where I truly get it... I've seen how black men treat darker skinned women. It's like they don't exist when anything a shade lighter is in the area.
