What is the size of the dashboard audio in the old Jetta?
2 Answers
The dashboard audio in the old Jetta is 3.5 inches. The old Jetta belongs to the compact car category, with body dimensions of 4487mm in length, 1706mm in width, and 1470mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2603mm. In terms of power, the old Jetta offers two engine options: 1.4L and 1.5L. In terms of appearance, the front face of the old Jetta adopts Volkswagen's classic design elements, with a dot-matrix grille defining the family design concept. This car not only inherits the design essence of the Volkswagen brand but also integrates a sense of fashion and sportiness well. The new Jetta brand's various models all adopt the family-style front face design, with the sedan inheriting the appearance foundation of the classic Volkswagen Jetta, perfectly inheriting German genes and Volkswagen quality as a whole brand.
I've been driving the old Jetta for so many years, and those small speakers on the dashboard are usually 5.25 inches in size, like the models from the 1990s. The factory sound quality is decent, but they might distort over time. I suggest first checking by removing the speaker covers to measure the size. If you want to improve the sound, upgrading directly to 6.5-inch units is more cost-effective, as there are ready-made brackets available in the market. DIY installation isn't difficult, just be careful not to make wiring mistakes. After the upgrade, the bass will be much stronger, making driving with music more enjoyable. Regular cleaning to prevent dust can extend their lifespan. If you're on a tight budget, maintaining the original parts is also an option.
