Hiya everyone.

I new on here, only 19, name is samantha, but please call me sam,  not long passed test, got a nice little 1.4 which i luvvvv. I also know absolutley NOTHING about cars and all this stuff , so if i do ask any questions, you'll have to explain it to me like you would explain it to a 5year old .

I'm having a couple of problems with my speakers at the mo, cuz i found out there wasnt actually any back speakers, which was a bit of a shock when my dad took my door panel off, so i'm in the market for new ones, dont really wanna spend to much to be honest, so any ideas??? Also, what would be better/easier....rear door speakers, or parcel shelf ones??

I really appreciate all the help your help.

Thanks!!

Sam.

hey welcome to the forum, Sam.

Got any pics of your car then?

 Hi Sam welcome to the site i'd go for door speakers rather than shelf ones,if you got them on the shelf certain people will see them then think there must be a decent head unit in the car & possibly break into it.get door speakers then a sub & amp in the boot

 welcome to the forum sam i'd go for door speakers too.

Welcome to the forum Sam...

Where abouts in the land are you?

I'd go for door speakers too.

 Welcome to a whole world of knowledge!!  As the others have said, go for door speakers

 hellooooo, from another young gun

Rear speakers all day long

Welcome to the forum, loads of helpful people on here with decent guides and how tos.  Guaranteed you'll find the answers you need here!

One of the guys on here built 8" subs in to the rear mounts, and upgraded the front speakers - looked totally standard and apparently sounded pretty good.

 welcome to the money pit............

Welcome to the forum

Did your dad happen to find a wiring that a speaker could be hooked up to?

If your in the North West i have a parcel shelf that has some 6x9's fitted,all i would  want is a std parcel shelf without holes cut into it,straight swap

Hi Sam - welcome to the forums.

I recently replaced my door speakers with some bought from this eBay store: http://stores.ebay.co.uk/southsidecaraudioshop. I can recommend them.

They do some specifically for mk4 Golfs for about £35, or some better ones for about £60. They come with all the relevant wires and fittings. Just drop them a message via eBay and they should be able to sort you out.

I'm surprised you haven't mentioned the Miss uk-mkiv's thread..

Welcome to the forums happy posting - I would definitly recommend looking into getting the speakers in the doors.

 Hiya everyone.

Thanks soooo much for your help. Its greatly appreciated  I'm definately gonna go for the door speakers.

I'm from Birmingham. I'll try and get a pic of my car, its not got any mods at all, just cant afford it at the mo   Hasnt even got alloy wheels

...and thanks very much for the recommendation Narkus, i shall definatley look into those speakers, thanks.

erm, i think there were 2 wires in my door, one was brown i think, cant remember properly. I presume they are for the speakers, right??

Welcome to the mad house, the guys won't let you down.

Sorry to hijack the thread, anyone got a thread for the 8" subs?

 Welcome to the forums sam!

 Welcome to the forum Sam.

 From a quick search,i think the car came with the Beta head unit,this was only front speakers from factory.So there won't be any wiring fitted as std.

If there was,it would be a plug that would simply plug into the speaker

 It would look something like this

Thanks. Nah there definatly wasn't a plug there. Gutted!! So would it be awkward  to wire it all up then? Want to try to avoid taking it somewhere to get it fitted to be honest, cos of the money. When i buy some speakers will they come with the plug that your refering to?
