Has anyone had to do this yet to their 6n2.

I've now got to do it and i was wondering if someone could tell me what im in for and some hints a tips would be great.

The reason i have to do this is: For a while now the drivers speakers have been going silent when the door was open more than half way, But then my girlfreind swung the door open from the inside and it cut off as usual but when the door closed it never came back on, Im thinking this is going to be a broken wire. So i thought it might be a good time to replace all the front wiring with some decent stuff.

Cheers for any help you's can give me.

may just be a loose conector in the back of the speaker, take the door card of which is a strange task and then have a look at the speaker.

Thats what im gonna do, and im hoping thats it.

But through time im want to rewire it with good wire anyway.

I tolk the doors card off today and had a look at the back of the speaker, I cant see anything worng with it. so the wire must be broke somewere.

Neither the door speaker or the tweeter are working, this to me suggests that the wire would be broke before the crossover, would this be right.

im almnost certain itll ba somthing in the flexi between the dorr and the shell. try unpluging the huge twist connector and then re doing it

Cheers for your Help.

Polo2k were would i find this big "twist connector" I dont think i have seen it. I did unplugg somthing but that was just the bottom speaker and it wasnt twist.

i think he means when you open the door the black tubeing that almost connects the door to the car lol. next to the hindges! its a rubber tube with plastic connector twist thngy!

Nice1 i was thinking about how to get that off so i could run wires through it. Thats me got a job for this sunday.

Does any1 have any tips of how to get it off, Bearing in Mind i WILL have a killer hangover

Finally got round to fixing this Very Small problem, It was one of the main speaker cables (blue) that had snapped between the car and the door. All sorted now BUT while doing this the stereo has just fcuking broke on me. £300 down the drain.

So if someone wants to sell a decent MP3 player, PM me.

I got one i'm selling. I've sent you a PM

Im also selling...

Rockford Fosgate 10" 400w DVC Sub (8 months old) With or without MDF Box - £80

Pioneer 4ch 480w Amp (18 months old) - £70

If anyone is intrested.

did you manage to work out how to wire through that twisty connnector thing ?
When I tried wiring my front speakers to my amp I gave up as soon as I saw the twsity thing and realised it wasnt a 5 min job, lol

re the popped head unit
can you give me a call about it i may be interested in buying the unit off you (07979) 985 543

as for passing the wires from the cabin into the door. you need to get a huge pair of pliers and twist the "knobbley" ring one end of the rubber flexi. you then need to find a spare position and drill through (i.e. find a position that would have a wire in it but not on all models) then you will need to persuade the female side out of the base of the a pillar and then repeat the process there. on the rear doors its just a rubber tube (i.e.) no plugs
