Speaker replacement...

Hi peoples,

Just inherited a 94 Corolla and desperately NEED to upgrade the 3 speaker sound system (yes, you read that right....3 *working* speakers!)

I wanted to scope out the front door speakers, to see what the original size was and how hard it might be to "upsize".

But....

I can't figure out how to get the door trim off!!!

I took the screw out of the door handle cup, removed the window handle, got the top off the armrest and removed two screws from there, and eased out all the studs from around the perimeter off the door trim, but the door handle cup won't come off and the door card seems to be retained there somehow?!?

Any pointers as to how to get the trim all the way off would be much appreciated! :help::help:

Also - if anyone can tell me what the original speaker sizes for the car are, it'd be appreciated! (I tried to measure and it seems like the front door speakers are 130mm (5.25") and the rears are some strange oval size - look like about 140x127mm (7"x5")?

Thanks!

Penny

      Canning Prado or 200

      Hi All Just joined - trying to decide between a Prado or 200 for the CSR next year. l'll be a single in the car in a group of 5 vehicles. Not owing. I appreciate whatever I get will need some mods. And I know I am on the Prado Club forum but I am hoping for some unbiased opinion! The Prado needs to carry less fuel which is a big advantage but what I am more concerned about is whether it is rugged enough. Any thoughts and especially experience, much appreciated! Regards to all. Chris

      2002 Door Handle Issue

      Unusual problem. Driver's side external door handle would not function with window in fully closed position. Would function with window open around 12mm. Removed door trim - visual inspection showed plastic clip at top of one of the actuating rods had become unclipped and was being hit by the metal rail on the bottom of the window glass when the window neared fully closed. Easiest solution was to apply Loctite Extreme Glue to clip and re-attach it to the rod. Fingers crossed it stays attached.

      2ZR Turbo

      How did this project finish up mate , any issues creep up? Im thinking of the same upgrades, but, I have a question around the registration. Here in NSW you cant turbo without it being offered as an original option. Did ypu get an engineer sigh off?

      Hi everyone, new member here. We have two Toyotas, a 2016 Corolla 2ZR-FE and a 2016 Yaris NCP130R. My dad was a huge Holden fan...I've broken that tradition and have become a huge Toyota fan myself! I do a lot of my own maintenance and repairs on our Toyotas where possible so look forward to sharing knowledge and learning even more from the community. Cheers.

      Camry 2007 Electrical Question

      Hi all, New member here. Got couple of issue with a 2007 Camry Altise. The clock/Speed alert screen doesn't work on the dash. It turn on/off periodically. Sometimes it will never turn on, sometimes it turns on for few hours. Does anyone know what could be the issue? Second issue is the horn is not working, checked the plugs they're all good. The screen wheel buttons work except horn. Pressing the find the car button the remote makes the horn go off. But I couldn't get the alarm go off (locked the car and opened the door from window). Any ideas where else I could look? Thanks in advance.
