2 Answers
The method for installing rear door speakers in the Tiguan is as follows: First, remove the head unit and the rear door panel. Wiring is required - after connecting the wires from the head unit, route them underneath the scuff plate, then pass through the opening in the B-pillar to run the wires into the rear door. Install the speaker bracket with wooden washers, proceed with the speaker wiring work, then tighten with screws to complete the installation. The Tiguan is an automobile produced by Shanghai Volkswagen, with body dimensions of 4506mm in length, 1809mm in width, and 1685mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2684mm. In terms of safety features, the Tiguan comes standard with ESP electronic stability program, EBD electronic brake-force distribution, and ASR traction control across all models. Some less common features like EDS electronic differential lock, EPB electronic parking brake, auto hold function, and TPR tire pressure monitoring system have all become standard configurations for the Tiguan.
As an enthusiast who frequently DIYs car audio modifications, I have extensive experience installing rear door speakers for the Tiguan. First, prepare the necessary tools: a Phillips screwdriver, wire strippers, and a 10mm wrench. You might also need connectors or heat shrink tubing. When removing the door panel, start by unscrewing from the handle area, carefully prying open the clips to avoid breakage. Remove the old speaker, paying attention to the wire colors corresponding to polarity (red for positive, black for negative). Install the new speaker, ensuring the terminals are securely fastened. Test the audio to confirm proper sound before reassembling the panel. I highly recommend using 4-ohm speakers to match the original car system; the sound quality improves significantly after installation, especially for rear passengers enjoying music on long drives. Wear gloves during the process to prevent scratches, and after completion, check that the window functions remain unaffected.
