Just got my son 2016 Honda Civic EX it’s a nice car but I agree that the speakers in his car need to be changed!! Thank you for sharing this video! You gave me a good place to start
idk, I think the sound in the Si is pretty good by default and i always have the music on 20+ volume. Thanks for the nice tutorial, it was really descriptive!
it’s terrible for how new it is IMO. step into any other car released in the past 5 years
@@nicholaschan8581Strong agree, our 18 ex-t is awful compared to our other cars.
Thank you so much for documenting all of this! You're the only one I've been able to find that does the front AND the back speakers in a video. The back speakers look like a pain in the ass to replace, but I think it'll be worth it, the stock speakers in this car are pretty bad imo.
Yes, definitely worth changing them all, thanks so much for watching!🏁👍💯
They are poor.
Very informative and detailed video! This one video makes me feel more confident on how to do it myself. Thanks!! :-)
Thanks so much for watching, glad to have helped out on speaker upgrade!!!💯🏁👍
Replaced all my drivers in my 2020 civic and it was easy -- thanks to you my friend!
Thanks so much for watching!!!👍💯🏁
I would recommend it, I just installed a Joying head unit! So now it sounds even better, video coming soon!!👍🏁💯
How much did it cost you, if you don't mind?
Around $450.00 dollars.
@@Zspeed Wow not bad at all! Ty
Thank you for this video! I have been looking since March 2022. I busted my right rear speaker due to Young Dolph and cold weather lmao
Glad this video helped you out!!💯👍🏁
Thanks for the tutorial i have a sport sedan just ordered some memphis speakers from crutchfield. Looking forward to swapping them out
fantastic video! great teacher and your voice is very calm and soothing ! great job keep up the amazing videos!
Thanks so much for watching!!
I have a 2017 honda civic ex and bought the smaller Kicker subwoofers that you got when I first got my car. Honestly, they sounded tinny and bass wasn’t as even toned as oem no matter how I played with the settings. I got one more replacement after but I don’t remember which one, and it still sounded worse. I gave up and kept oem, sadly I’ll say I eventually got used to them. Also, I have to say that Crutchfield has awesome customer service.
You're right, I think the only way to get a subwoofper to sound decent is to go with an aftermarket amplifier setup!
i just got the C2-350X.. they are great. thanks for the review...
great video, so detailed and thank you so much for having a good microphone! Kudos!
Thanks so much for watching!!
Awesome video, I think I’m gonna do this to my 2017 Si Coupe bc of this vid
Niceee, been looking for a video on this! Replacing my speakers in the Si next month!
Hey
Did you do it? What speakers did you use?
Was the process too time consuming? Also what is the total estimate you spent on the entire process..?
I apologize for too many questions..
@@yashasvi6669 sup bro, I haven’t done it yet cause I’m actually going to be picking up a Type R soon lol but from the video it didn’t look too hard
Thank you for the content bro! Nice work!
Stock head W/ aftermarket 75w amp to boost signal. 12 inch sub with gain knob. I kept the stock SUb. For a 500$ upgrade it's got some bump in the trunk
Kudos to you for changing those out. Upon research, it appears to me that there is no way to separate the just the audio signals from the infotainment cluster. The sound you get through the speakers have been processed by the cluster/internal sound processor. My concern is that they are not optimized for aftermarket equipment, the resultant of which may be poorer sound quality.
Great improvement in sound quality even with the original head unit!
You are right. Thr factory system will roll off the lows and highs. While the aftermarket speakers may sound a little better, you aren't going to get anywhere near their full potential with the factory radio. An amp would help considerably as well
Lmao. Gotta love the experts in the comments
excellent video.. i will do the same to my car...
My issue isn't the sound of the stock speakers, but the fit and finish is so terrible that everything rattles. Especially in the back, so i just wanted to see how I could remove it and maybe add some padding to make it shut up :./ But I have the EXL (FC1 Sedan), so thats the one thing that isn't the same as your video. I also have rear doors with speakers, but its probably the same.
Cool, I only changed the door speakers and dash speakers. Sound ok. Try to change the sub..but I fail
Another great video!!!
Thanks so much for watching!!!
Great in depth video, it would be awesome to get links for the products you used.
All speakers an supplies purchased from Crutchfield website! Just enter your make, model and year and choose from what is available!
thanks!! awesome video!!
Thanks so much for watching!
Great video, thank you !
Thanks so much for watching!!!💯🏁👍
Awesome video you made it easy to follow. Would you put more damper in the panels?
Yes, I would go through both panels looking for anything that had the potential to vibrate and try to find a way to secure it!!! Thanks so much for watching
Thanks for the video! Its excellent. You said that you would use a less powerful Sub. What Kicker Model did you use and what would you put instead? Thanks in advance!
Go to crutchfield.com for ideas on alternative subwoofers.
It has the link of all the parts I buy.
Also can you make a video talking about what you would have to do differently from this if i wanted to run my own amplifier
Hey. What a great video. The music you added made it 100x better. What song starts at the 11:51 mark ? Really enjoyed it!!
Thanks so much for watching, that song is called My Ride by Lakey Inspired! ua-cam.com/video/Ok_Y7XGtOJ0/v-deo.html fair use copyright free music!
I have a civic touring, does it comes with some kinda special package cuz the sound slaps on that thing. I’ve always wondered that the previous owner might’ve replaced the speakers but idk, anyone else?
Thank you for the nice video,
I got question, do you need special bracket to secure the subwoofer?
Thanks
No, but you will have to drill new holes for your self tapping screws. Thanks so much for watching!
very nice. where did u get the kit of speakers ?
Crutchfield.com, I explain that information in the beginning of the video. 😊👍
I have a 2014 si coupe. I’m trying to upgrade my sound system as well. I don’t want a massive sub in my trunk I just want a better improvement in the sound quality. The bass sucks and the mids could be much better. I see that you just replaced the factory sub for a aftermarket sub? How does the sub sound even if if not installed in a box?
The factory amplifier isn't quite strong enough to fully power this aftermarket sub. But overall, the sound quality has greatly improved!!
What size screws do we need for the door speakers and where did you get the speaker adapter plates??
Hello, excellent video.
I have a Honda Civic 1.5 Sport Plus, and the system has 11 speakers.
I tryed to upgrade the speakers in front and back dors, I bought the jbl stage3 627, but didn't work. I only substitute the 2 front dor, the left isn't working, and the right one sounds very bad.
Are this JBL Stage3 627 not compatible? I use the cable arnes for the connection for this model.
Please help
Go to crutchfield.com and put your civic model and year in here in the search column. Then go by what they recommend for the front speakers. They will also supply the correct harness adapters as well!
Could you go more into depth with how you measured the holes? I'm trying to do the same install and I'm stuck on that part lol
It's not an exact science, I had to place the speakers in the mounts mark the holes with a sharpie, then try to line up my drill bit from underneath. Needless to say, I had to make more than one hole sometimes to get it to line up with my sharpie marks, but no one can see those mistakes!!! Hope this helps!!
After watching your video I replaced my two front door speakers and it sounded so much better so I decided to replace my back door speakers too and now I have no sound at all. I checked the fuse and it's fine. What could be the cause of this?
I would start by disconnecting the rear speakers, then turn on the head unit to see if the other speakers start working again! If so, something is wrong with the rear speaker wiring. Hope this helps, let me know if you figure it out!
I just watched this video because I was going to upgrade my speakers, would you recommend getting an AMP installed with this or was it good without an amp?
Yes, I would recommend an amplifier also!!👍🏁
@@ZspeedYour guide was amazing! I was able to install a 2 10" subwoofer + amp in my car :). I haven't changed the speakers yet! but I'll think I'll keep the factory amp for the speakers. Thank you!
One question... changing the subwoofer doesn't affect the power or electrical energy of the stereo since it's bigger? thank you.
Doesn't effect the stereo energy output, but the subwoofer is under powered and could use an external Amp.
Is the battery supposed to be disconnected so the airbags don’t shoot out when taking the panel, or will it be fine to leave the battery on?? What did you do?
I would recommend that you disconnect the battery while installing your system, but if you didn't, the airbags shouldn't deploy while installing a android device!
@@Zspeed I’m just going to be installing the rear speakers, so it’s okay for the panels to come off even if it’s connected the battery and has power?
Yes, just be gentle around the side curtain air bags!
Can you put the links to all the products that you used and all the exact speakers their respective part numbers please
At 30:45, what do you mean by if we change out the deck? Do you mean the head unit or the factory amplifier?
Yes, I should have said head unit not deck!
Can we get speaker sizes
Honda really doesnt want people messing with their rear speakers 😂
Did you leave the tweeters from the rear deck disconnected? Or did you plug back in after you installed new rear deck speakers?
I left them connected and had no problems with them!!👍🏁
Hi will this website work for 2019 civic si was wondering if the 2018 is the same sizes due to the website not having 2019 option
Yes, I was able to use the website with a 2019 civic si!
Good video, however you said if you de pin the wires, that the white is positive and that the blue is negative, which is incorrect as blue is positive for the center speaker and white is negative
If you checked the polarity and found blue to be positive and white negative, then differently go with that configuration! Thanks for pointing that out and thanks for watching!💯🏁👍
@@Zspeed I found the wire diagram for the 10 th gen si, so looking at the schematic and it’s clearly blue positive, white negative, not trying to discredit you in any way, just a heads up, again, great video
Thank you so much brother, I will be swapping those speaker wires tomorrow and putting a correction on my video! Thanks again for the tip, so glad you noticed that mistake, that's what makes UA-cam so great, everyone working together for the best possible outcome on our after market upgrades!!!💯🏁👍
Could you link the speaker mount you used for the door speaker?
So, if you had it to do over again , what speakers would you use?
I would use 5 inch midrange speakers in the rear with a less powerful sub, head unit under powers current sub! And keep everything else the same!
No adding a box for a sub set up? Is pretty much always better. Just a single 10 or 12 with say 1k or so going to it.
With a less powerful sub what one would u recommend ? And did crutchfield send u the wiring harness for ur rear sub ? Or what one should I order ? How do u think the Rockford Fosgate P3sd2-8 would work with the stock system ? Thanks 🙏
Do you think it would be worth going through the effort of replacing the stock tweeters, or were they sufficient after replacing the factory speakers?
If you're not adding an amplifier, the stock tweeters are pretty good!!
Awesome thank you 🙏🏼 do you think 6.5 inch speakers will fit in the rear deck, or are 5 inch about as big as you think you could go?
6.5 inches might fit, you should be able to modify the mounts if needed!
for the rear speakers are they also the same size for the fromt 6.5
You could fit 5 or 6 1/4 inch speakers in the rear!
I bought a infinity center speaker for my sport touring civic hatchback and while its same size as the original speaker the mounting points arent in same spot. Had someone tell me a backstrap could be used. Would love your thoughts.
Crutchfield.com Has the exact speaker replacement size you need! Just put your year, model, trim level and they will show you everything that fits your car!
What size speakers did you put in the doors? I know in one comment you said 6.5 might fit in the rear, but Crutchfield is recommending 6.5s all the way around.
Go with what Crutchfield recommends!
@@Zspeed that’s what I did, and it sounds great. Thanks for the inspiration to do it.
Thanks for watching!!!
Hello! I have a2022 civic and just had the factory speakers replaced in all 4 doors with coax RF speakers and left the factory tweeters in. They installed a 12 inch sub and Kenwood Amp to run sub only. Now, the front 2 door speakers are louder than the rear doors. It sounds unbalanced and the factory eq isn't helping matters. It's all treble and bass. Can't hear midrange at all. I don't know if the installers didn't do it right or if it's the factory head unit. Any suggestion on a fix for this?
Have you tried adjusting the fader to favor the rear speakers. If that doesn't work, try turning down the treble. Looks like the problem with installing Coax RF speaker is that they have tweeters in the center of the midrange speakers, so you end up with too many tweeters! Is that the type of speakers that were installed?
Yes they sure did. I have since went to another installer and he told me it's Hondas head unit partly and the fact that the other installer put in coax. He's going to install a4 channel amp to help the door speakers out. I'm accustomed to having a great EQ so I can adjust all frequencies. Hopefully we can achieve that with the amp and I can get it sounding clean and not so bright.
No mid, I agree. I have a 2020 civic sport n spent $$$ on speakers but it appears the head unit puts out poor quality and seems hopeless.
Are you still in the hermitage/Mt juliet area? You did my buddy Adam's Honda fit?
Wrong guy, but thanks so much for watching! Lake View, AL.
What size are the mid range door speakers I need to order a set
Check Crutchfield's website for exact speaker sizes!
Great video, extremely helpful and well produced! How did that big sub work with the OEM amp?
Under powered, but still adds bass. I will need a Amplifier in the near future!
What’s your door handle? Any links? Thanks
This is the stock door handle for the Si coupe! Is that what you're referring to?
Yeah. Not on the si sedan model but is it possible to add the handle?
You should be able to add it!!!💯👍🏁
Hey you have the other speaker from the center console front left over? I'm looking to buy the same setup and only comes in 2. I'll buy it. Another question. You say a 6 in speaker will fit in the corner rear deck?
Ivan
Yes, I still have it, how about $75.00 bucks? Do you live in the US? As far as the rear speakers go, if you remove the old speaker mounts, you could fit a 5 inch and maybe a 6 inch mid-range speaker back there!
Nj
I been trying to give you my contact but it getting taken off.
So contact will be 201. Then the next is nine two 3. And then its twelve. And sixty seven the last.
Contact me at zspeed2561@gmail.com.
Mine need replacing too.
No problem 😊
what speakers did you use in the rear???
You can use 5 or 6 inch midrange speakers!
@@Zspeed Thanks!!!!😁
Are all , 6.5"?
The rear can take a 5 or 6 inch speaker!
Hey man I had a question how is the bass on those lower front door speakers the infinity primus pr6510CS Im curious to see the bass compared to the stock speakers and how they sound according to crutch field they have 2.7 ohm impedance is this ok to run with the 4 ohm set up
They sound really great, no issues noted with the 2.7 ohms. Bass 🔊 is so much better than the stock setup!!🏁💯👍
@@Zspeed I appreciate the response I was wondering because I’ve fried a few speakers and they sounded clear but the bass was completely gone thank you for the feed back Im might try these
@2:08 what's that car in the background?
Pontiac Bonneville 2001!
@@Zspeed hell yeah! Do a video on that.
hey, what gage wire did you use for the sub ( neg to neg and pos to pos ) to make it 2 ohm? thanks.
Standard speaker gauge wire is all you need!
Think i bought an 8 inch kicker comp mine sounds like paper when it hits
Are all the mid range speakers 3.5?
No, go to the Crutchfield website!
It may be under powered!
Anyone know the size of the rear speakers for the 2019 honda civic coupe lx? We tried 6.5s like i did the front but they would not fit. Were trying to see what will fit in the back. People r telling me 5.25 with a bit of modding? Wat do yal thnk
5 1/4 inch should fit, give it a try!!👍
Anything different for the sedan si
I'm not sure if the sedan has a subwoofer.
The Si sedan has a subwoofer it’s the same size 8”
As a caraudi0o pro, do not put sound deadening like that.
How should it be applied?
how's the difference between stock?
Much better, I would recommend upgrading if you enjoy listening to music!!!
@@Zspeed Doesn't it lack of power with stock amp?
Diffenly under powered, but still has enough power to make it sound pretty good! I will need to add an amp in the future!
@@Zspeed Thanks for the information sir!
upgrading sound is dope but I don’t like it were it’s too much bass bumpin Nd u cant hear the lyrics of the song 😂
So basically i'm looking to budget around 10k and a lot of work..
