I changed the speakers and added an amplifier, all pioneer. also added an mtx sub and amp combo. In order to interface with the head unit, I used the Audio Control LC2i. still want to add an equalizer at some point :)
I did, it was very easy. just make sure the minimum range for the speakers you buy is 2 watts. also get some 90 degree nut drivers, I almost broke my rear windshield trying to wrench those factory speakers out...

sorry for the terrible pictures, it was really hot out. tapped into the rear speakers using a terminal block...
great job! I'm actually doing this project myself next weekend. I'm using a AudioControl LC2i converter. its a powered converter (not passive) and can correct for any bass losses in the system. I installed some rear deck speakers a few days ago and I'm loving them, Pioneer TS-A6985R 4-way speakers.
this sub is quite small 8" and simply straps on to the bottom of the trunk with these straps that it came with. I just want to know how to get through the firewall and to the engine compartment with the power cable
Thanks man. but just letting you know that what you are doing is the exact same thing. if you are wiring it to the terminal on the head unit to an inline converter then there is no difference between that and wiring it from a splice to the speaker level inputs on the amp. If you have speaker...
the power for the amp comes from the car battery. the amp has speaker signal inputs. these inputs barely take any power. the amp amplifies the signal using the 12VDC. The inline converter simply converts the amps RCA ports to speaker wire which you would splice to the rear speakers anyway... its...
Hi all, I thought I'd share this experience since it might be helpful to some in the future.
On Monday morning (still dark out) I hit a peel of a semi tire that was on the road! (HWY) It made some loud noises but I didn't think too much of it. When I parked at work I realized there was some...
Hello,
I was wondering if anyone had instructions to install an amplifier in the trunk for the corolla 2014. My sub woofer is already encased and connected to the amplifier. I could simply figure it out but I don't want to damage any panels since the car is a lease.
Thanks!
