I have a S reg polo 6n and the speakers in the dash are not brilliant
I wanted to change them but finding it very difficult to get to the actual speakers
I need some help to find out HOW to get the "cover" off them - and which size to change it with
Also how much speaker wire would i need to put some 6x9's in the back
Thanks!

Two packs of speaker cable from halfrauds should do it, they cost around £5 a pack, or free if your mates work there
If not not lengh wise you need around 4m as you has to the lengh x2

Same here, I've left mine as they are adequate, just running a 12" sub and amp in the boot.

If your not running an Amp, then wire your speakers into the purple and Green wires at the plug at the rear of the head unit. As said bout the leng of your car x2. I installed a set of Alpine 6x9's monday night to my polo monday night with a mate. Very easy, The wire with the double stripe is negative i believe.
