Happs

A few months on and I haven't yet done anything with the speakers and audio quality. Has anyone fitted new speakers now, and how has it improved the sound? With the popularity of the MY11 Klugers' I'm hoping speaker installs will become more common so places like JB's will offer it at a reasonable price.

GloveHead, out of curiosity did you fit it to a face-lifted model (MY2011)? I ask because I contacted them (Cushie) a few weeks ago about getting one for my 2011 and they said they're still testing the units in that model because Toyota made some changes and in particular they noted issues with BT. I have asked them to email me back once they've completed testing and development and I'll place an immediate order for one!

Here are the JBL speakers: http://www.toyotajbl.com/highlander/ It indicates 6x9" as standard in the front doors, as do these: http://forum.ecoustics.com/bbs/messages/4/646251.html http://www.caraudio.com/forums/speakers/491098-need-advice-install-2010-highlander-w-no-sub.html But I wouldn't be surprised if there was some sort of plate required!! Thanks for the link. So confused, and there's still a distinct lack of local info on the Klugers audio system...

I am trying to find out exactly the same thing! Unless I'm going blind I cannot find any reference to the speakers or head unit power anywhere in the user manual??!! I too will start with speakers, then add an amp if needed, but I'm hoping not to have to, I just want a reasonable increase in clarity and power, nothing too crazy. I also read on a few forums that the Highlander (US version of the Kluger) has pre-drilled or pre-fab holes in the front and rear doors for 6x9" speakers (though I think 4" or 6" speakers are currently in there?). If that's true the install would be easy and 6x9's would give reasonable bass. A pair or quad 6x9" 3-ways in the Kluger would be pretty awesome :D But again I can't find any info about it anywhere for the Kluger!!! <_<

Hi All, I have just taken delivery the new MY11 Kluger Grande. I really like the stereo/map interface so I'm not looking to change/upgrade the head unit (other than adding an iPod unit), but the speakers could be better. If I replace just the speakers with better quality 3-way ones, but use the existing the head unit to power them, would I achieve much of a difference or better sound with them? I'm really just looking to get more clarity and volume out of them, not something resembling a full custom car audio installation or sub type set up. Cheers.

Bloody hell - we sure do don't we!!!!!

Check out these pics to give you some idea: http://au.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=31336&st=0&gopid=432771entry432771

They really are!! Got them for kids and they have been very practical, but I didn't expect them to add so much to the look of the car too :D I got black leather, again because of the kids. But the lighter leather looks very very nice.

Hi, I took delivery of my new Kluger yesterday and I know there are many of us who were/are waiting to take delivery too so post your pics here if you care to share :D

No Way! Sorry to hear that mate... Mine actually did too because I bought mine 3+ months ago so things like the fixed interest rate on my lease etc had expired (meaning I was going to have to pay a higher rate - not happy). I cracked it and said I've waited 3.5 months, I'm taking it today, they did a workaround and I managed to take delivery.

Picked up the car late this afternoon and couldn't be happier with the car. Graphite Grande AWD with nudge, tow and side rails. The chrome accents on the facelifted model with the accessories on dark grey look superb!! Drive is silky smooth and the little touches (like a blue/grey LED on the roof lighting up the shifter) were unexpected but fantastic. Can't wait take take it on some loooong weekend drives this weekend. :D Did you pick yours up today mate?

48km (also needed to take it to the tinting shop) and a full tank of fuel.

I'd be interested too. Haven't even taken delivery of my new Kluger yet and I'm looking at what people have modded!

Awesome!! :D Mine's from City Toyota. Pretty excited, I ordered it in Oct, was originally due in Dec, ship delayed till 11 Jan so delivery this Friday 21st Jan. Seems like it's been an eternity!!

Just got word, I'll be taking delivery this Friday
