It's really best to consult your local install shop because the parts may slightly vary depending on the speaker.

AnthonyJ350 at least you give them the option and you have the skill, it's not worth the price when you know more than the installer and care about quality. Hope you do your thing for a long time and set the example.

@Joe_DeSantis 6 лет назад

Followed this install a few weeks back, some corrections/additional tips to this process. They make a custom 6 ½” Speaker adapter for most Nissan models (part number CECOMINOD020597). This is an EXACT fit into the 350z. Note for larger speakers like the ones Anthony installed and myself you will need another ½ inch to clear the window when rolled down. I would highly recommend getting this adapter as it is no nonsense, exact bolt in, no modification. Just don’t overtighten the plastic seemed it would give way under too much force. Anthony mentions that he may run fresh speaker wire later. What he didn’t mention is how big of a pain it is. I ran new cable on the first shot. If you look online most people seem to be drilling/modifying their door harness to run 14-16 gauge cable through. After reading a few horror stories about how their door electronics were no longer working due to the modification, I went a different route. I cut holes in both the door and inside car and ran a custom loom for only the 14 gauge cable(used a Dremel metal cutting tool + step up drill bit on power drill). Nice part about this all is I was able to mount the crossovers in the kick panels. To summarize it all, you better be ready if you plan on doing a custom cable install. The jump from using factory wiring to custom was pretty crazy in complexity. I used all the products Anthony suggested except the plastic adapter and speaker company, and it came out great. I will say however that I would be curious of what would happen if you just used the fast ring center ring instead of the wave breaker. I doubt there would be much difference. In addition the Fast rings foam, you have to cut in half. The speaker especially the one me + Anthony installed are so large that the rings need to be reduced in size. In addition, everyone commenting on the location of the tweeter. Yea, it could be mounted in a better location, I’ve seen a few threads of people mounting it in the pillar. If you are going to that level, the mid driver is not optimal either. The speaker grill on the door card/panel doesn’t line up perfectly, and the location isn't the best. I’ve seen some guys do some custom work with that as well. In the end how far are you willing to go? I will say for most normal people who enjoy good quality audio, you will be satisfied with setup shown by Anthony. Pictures of install: imgur.com/a/7jpsH Oh and most of all, thanks Anthony for taking the time to show everyone your install procedure

AutoLoc DLOOM Rubber Door Wire Loom off amazon. Has a Built in grommet both ends. Just drilled a 5/8's hole hit the holes with some paint, and ran the loom. They are $10 a pop, but made the install pretty clean, easy in that regards.If you are worried about sealing it off, you could use some Black Silicone.

anthony..i have a question... i've changed the speaker in my doors..but i kept the old tweeters still plugged.. is it possible that those prevent my new speakers from playing the high frequencies? maybe these tweeters still use a canceling capacitor or something.. any advice>? thanks

@AnthonyJ350 6 лет назад

What's probably happening is you have a factory amplified system that crosses over the speakers at a particular frequency. So if you put a coaxial speaker in the door, that speaker does not get full range because of the amp and that's what is preventing the high frequencies from playing.

@alexafa316 6 лет назад

@exit5398 2 года назад

Did you cut the stock speaker adapter plug and just wire everything to it instead of routing new wires through the molex? also how are you running the tweeter wires to the rest of the system? it's very difficult to make that out. I'm assuming from the tweeter you're running the stock adapter and then to the crossover using aftermarket wire?

@AnthonyJ350 2 года назад

I used the stock wiring but I put connectors on and wired it directly to the passive cross overs.

Do you have any tips in how to secure the crossover correctly? I welcome you sage advice, George

Maybe, never tried it. The Wavebreaker has a really good adhesive and conform to the contour of the door easily while the styrofoam is likely to crack. The styrofoam might also be too hard of a surface not absorbing the back wave.

Do you think it was a good idea to try and use the door itself as the speaker enclosure instead of those foam baffles?

What are your thoughts on how the door panel speaker grill doesn't really line up with the speaker? Looks to me like only about half the grill is even over the speaker. I used fast rings on mine and I'm happy with the sound I get, but I can't help but think that some of the sound is getting trapped in there.

@AnthonyJ350 7 лет назад

Jeremy Schank If you want it to line up better you would have to 3D router a speaker adapter to give it an angle or do a custom grille on the door panel itself aligning with the speaker. If you want to test listen to it with the door panel off and see if you hear a significant difference.

@AnthonyJ350 8 лет назад

+j pugs I'll be using Alpine Electronics' INE-W967HD head unit and their PDX V9 5-channel amp mounted in the glove box. That way it's hidden and easy for me to tune whenever I want. For speakers I'm doing an odd setup where I'm only using the woofers from the Hertz High Energies and I'm tuning them to only play mid range bass frequencies. So I'm stage the car from the rear to play roughly 70-60 hz and below, the middle will be on a HPF to 60 but I'll cut it off so it doesn't play anything really high and the front will play from 60HZ all the way up. I've never done it this way stage a vehicle progressively like that so I figure I'd try it.

@wernerlab13 8 лет назад

What freq. is your HP filter and xover rate? Any vibrations? How much power? I've always heard the 350z has cruddy vibrations and poor midrange through the front door speakers and the best bet is to do custom kick pods made out of fiberglass completely bypassing the doors and sail panels all together due to their poor angles and SQ. In other words, how do your Hertz sound? lol

@AnthonyJ350 8 лет назад

I know they angle down but I feel people are nit picky. Sitting that close can you tell the difference? The Hertz are big and with enough power the midrange is strong if you build up the door. I have the Hertz down to 50hz and I think I have a -6 dB slope at the amp right now. I did not turn on the HPF at the head unit or you compound the slope.

@trevorkirkby5461 7 лет назад

Hi Anthony. do you think it would make much of a difference drilling out the rest of the holes on the speaker grill or cutting out the center and wrapping it with speaker cloth ? Thanks for the how to videos & putting up with some of the clowns that comment on here

@AnthonyJ350 7 лет назад

Funny you say that because I tried drilling them out more but the plastic didn't drill out clean so I cleaned up what I drilled. I would drill them out sand it down and then cover in a grille cloth that matches your door colour. The reason I don't suggest cutting it out is in the real world someone might end up pushing through the cloth damaging the speaker.
