VZ/VY Holden Commodore Speaker Upgrade 

Glad it helped! Good luck with the install. Keen to hear how it goes! :)

Hit a snag haha Not sure what clips into where haha

@@alannahprow1623 Oh no haha - With the door or the speakers themself?

All good, just doing the wiring now!

Thanks mate, really appreciate it! Glad you enjoyed - I'll have to add a few more car projects to the list 😁

Haha thanks, glad you enjoyed! :)

Thanks mate!

...then the 6 months it took to actually edit and upload 😅 I'll get better I swear!

Yes look after them well and get them regularly serviced treat well as they aint no burnout car.

@@craigmiddlemiss6917 yes . Of course now they are all rebranding

Thanks mate! Glad I could help :)

are you sure the stock ones don't really perform that well and I just brought a pair of these after listening to them at auto barn and they sounded a lot better

Hi Jon-Michael, glad the video helped! If I have understood you are referring to the red clip that attaches the door lock cap to the threaded rod of the lock (the part that moves up and down)? From memory the height of this was adjustable and may not be clipping into your cap properly. My advice would be to make sure you have the lock in the "unlocked" position (up), pull the red clip out from the lock cap, place the cap over the rod to the unlocked height, then press the red clip back into place. Hope this helps!

Make sure you pop out the red clip. just so it frees up. Slide the button down the threaded rod, the red clip in the out position will then stop the button going down. Clip it in at this position, it is the right height. Note that VYs do not have the hole at the bottom of the red clip to help unclip it, on VZ just lifting the button slightly you can hook out the red clip, which disengages the button. Use a small jewelers screw driver or something like that to carefully unclip on VY. Think Holden used to just rip the buttons out and replace the red clip.

Great advice! I'll definitely be doing this next time instead of/in conjunction with the flood light. Cheers

Or a headlight ; )

Yeah VT - VZ models are all the same car under the plastic :).

Hi John, correct 6" all round :)

Engineer In The Making Thanks, just watched it and I love the vid bro. Can a 6.5 fit? Or will there have to be modifications on the panels?

The 6" speakers fit perfectly. I think 6.5 would also probably fit but it may require the speaker housing to be modified. I haven't tried or read anywhere that 6.5 would fit though so I'd stuck to 6" to be safe :)

@@engineerinthemaking1 Holden says the standard size is 6.5”

Hi Mate, I didn't have any issue with the locks at all. The red tab should pop out and allow you to adjust the height based on how high it is sitting when you clip it back into the black piece. As for the door handles I just used a very skinny tipped flat screwdriver and got very minimal, if any, scratching. Hope this helps!

You have to put the door knobs on while the red thing is still popped out, or you will fuck up the thread which keeps them into place

I found the 6" speakers fitted perfectly with no problems. I haven't tried 6.5" but there may be enough space, however, you may need to modify the plastic mount in the door slightly to make them work.

All doors have 6 inch speakers Rear shelf can fit 6x9’s in flush There’s a plate either side with spot welds on it that you have to punch out

@@engineerinthemaking1 i cant find 6 inch speakers anywhere no more

Thanks for the comment Brett, always keen to learn something new. I'm not aware of any additional speakers under the dash. I'd greatly appreciate if you could provide some reference material to help me out on this one.

😂😂😂

@@engineerinthemaking1 how are you mate pls keep going with holden vz fix and serves video

I hear what you’re saying. Be razor sharp on servicing and you’ll be ok. Hey, in another 10 years they may be rarer than LS1’s and may be a gold mine, who knows?

I didn't realise I had such a huge fan base... 😲🤯
