I only needed to see how to correctly re-attach the door panel to a W163. Thanks for the great content!

Did you remove all the Bose stuff and how difficult was that change? Just picked up a 99 ML430 with the Bose and I mainly just want to add a CarPlay double din radio

[@gasNgears]

No bud, mine didn't have the bose audio. It was the generic mercedes stereo instead.

Will 6.5 speakers fit In the Rear door? I’m thinking about upgrading but I’m not sure if I should get a smaller size for the back

[@MercedesDieselGuy]

I just replaced my 2002 ML320 speakers this past weekend. 6.5" were a perfect fit up front. 5 1/4" were a perfect fit for the rear doors.

Hi thanks your video is really helpful. My question is do you know how much W (watt) was the original speakers ? You upgraded RM 75W but what level the original ?

[@gasNgears]

Hi bud, all I know is the original speakers 2 ohm so I picked mine according to that. I have no clue what's the stock speaker wattage sorry.

@Hamza Shweiki I buy most of my ML parts from rockauto.com They ship worldwide and all the parts are usually available at very cheap price. May be you should try looking at their catalogue or email me the picture at [e-mail]

Good tutorial. Do you remember what speakers and what size did you get?

[@gasNgears]

Thanks bud! I used 6.5" Hertz uno speakers and I am very happy with how they sound.

Stock Bose speaker?

[@gasNgears]

No bud, my mine did not have the bose sound system. These were generic base model speakers. I believe bose speakers are wired slightly different due to the amplifier.

[@dcomputers]

@@gasNgears Interesting. So you don't have an amp on your model.

[@gasNgears]

@@dcomputers no, mine doesn't have an amp. Under the passenger seat all I have is a SOS call box.
