How to Replace Speakers for a Nissan Altima

[@TEMPEST__codm]

you are so amazing. done both front speakers in literally 30 minutes

[@pqmodean]

Great video. When i replaced my door speakers 5yrs ago i added 1/4 foam tape to the adaptor to minimize any rattles or buzzing. I’m actually watching this vid to get a refresher course because i am planning on replacing my door speakers again and adding new 6x9’s. Saved for reference.

[@mcgurrentertainment]

Very nice and that's a good idea

[@JSmith-cd2nw]

[@mcgurrentertainment]

Thank you very much 😊

[@trey4976]

Great video but no need to take the whole door off, I was able to do my door speakers by just placing the door piece to the side. This video will help me do the trunk tho!🔥💯

[@WrylandSingleton]

how did it turn out?

[@marvin7533]

I had some 6x5s and 6x9 Kicker speakers and subs installed by a professional in my 2016 Altima SR 4 yrs ago. Stock speakers were trash. Total night and day sound wise. The installer did a great job, and I tipped him well. Wiring wasn't sloppy, no scratches from tools, and the amp was mounted behind the back passenger seat on the drivers side, that had easy access to folding the seat down. I have a 2024 Sentra SR Premium with 8 Bose speakers , and somewhat nervous about getting an amp and sub installed with factory speakers due to so many electronics in the car.

[@mcgurrentertainment]

Ok

[@Jamellii]

Could get a powered subwoofer but have someone install it for you

[@WrylandSingleton]

I will say it makes a world of difference to put sound deadening material in and behind the plastic and on the metal of the car i did that for just my trunk and rear deck tonight because i’m getting new front speakers and it already sounds so much better. Before there was so much rattle in the back i thought my 6x9 speakers were blown but it was just vibration caused by not enough insulation.

[@mcgurrentertainment]

Very good information. Thank you for sharing.

[@mcgurrentertainment]

Good question. I believe you can add insulation anytime you want, as long as it fits.

[@phillipvazquez284]

@mcgurrentertainment I also seen another video someone was insulating the front door and rear doors and he said the rear doors don't have speakers have you ever herd of this. I thought my back doors have speakers. I have the exact car younwas working on and it sound like there's speakers there as far as I think there is .??

[@LordMelona1]

Fantastic video. Explained exactly what needs to be done. Followed your instructions and replaced the speakers on my Altima with no issues. However, I did notice that the factory speakers fit flush in the circular grill/hole in the plastic door panel but the new 6.5" speakers were slightly larger and the grill kind of sits on top of it. The interior door panel seemed to attach to the door without any noticeable gaps though. Is this normal?

[@mcgurrentertainment]

Thank you very much!!! It's possible, depending on the size (height) of the new speakers (different manufacturers have different specs). As long as everything fits with no issues, let it ride.

[@Chance8888]

No I’m good. Just take my money and do it for me.

Being that this is my favorite video for this project not to mention I love how you explain detail after detail may I ask do do you have a video showing how to install a amplifier and a under seat subwoofer.? And I finally received my system in the mail a little pricy but I'm sure it's well worth it. So when you have time may I ask if you have a video that's what I have ordered the entire package

How to replace speakers: remove everything 😂😂😂

Sadly, that's the procedure for most cars nowadays. Can't do an oil change without removing half the front end.

Super informative, your explanation is on point... where do I get these tools and are you planning to install an amp & subwoofer in an Altima. need help installing amp and sub

Thank you very much. A majority of the tools are linked in the description, except the wrench set. And we are looking into an Amp/Subwoofer combo for the Altima. It's on the upgrade list. 😎

[@welfn2211]

Great video

[@sagethemonster7041]

Another way to disconnect the panel from the frame is you can just take out the pins and the clip connection from door hanlde rather than unscrewing them. It's quicker imo

Will you do a video for the dash speakers as well? Also great content, plan on doing my speakers and head unit in the next 2 weeks.

[@mcgurrentertainment]

Thank you very much. Unfortunately, we decided not to change out the dash speakers/tweeters. It requires a fair amount of modification to fit an aftermarket replacement. That juice may not be worth the squeeze. Good question.

Is it the same exact process for the passenger side door panel removal?

[@mcgurrentertainment]

Yes

[@da.official.howard8008]

How much is it to get something like this done with everything ?

[@mcgurrentertainment]

Good question. Sadly, I don't have a clue. It's been years since I've had a vehicle in for stereo work, and most of the shops in my area are long gone. I'd imagine it would be expensive due to inflation alone.

[@St00p1dHead]

Are you using the factory radio/head unit?

[@mcgurrentertainment]

Correct. This model does not have rear door speakers. I'm having a hard time finding one that does. Any chance yours has them?

[@KJTEJ]

How many speakers does the altima 2015 have? 6 in total? Are there any on the dash or below?

Typically, 6. Two in the dash (near the windshield), two in the front doors, and two in the rear (behind the rear seat).

My speakers were goin out when I got the car having that static sound I was driving and the sound only completely went out the radio was still goin even connect to all my Bluetooths is this just the speakers that need to be replaced or a fuse since I have no sound

It's hard to say without troubleshooting. If all the speakers go out at once, it sounds like it could be the radio.

For the rear speakers you could just use some self tappers and make new holes instead of cutting the speaker housing.

It's likely the new holes would overlap with some of the OEM holes. Hints why we didn't need to trim much off the speakers.
