I bought the “Bass Bins” on eBay used which had the advantage that they came with the proper smart tweeters, however most sellers online are selling the parts for LHD smart so you need to be very careful. Regarding +ve or neg on the speakers , I always touch a 1.5v battery to the speaker wires to see which way the diaphragm deflects , if you got the positive right it should deflect upwards. Thanks for this video, your time and effort is really appreciated.
Useful and informative video, I didn't know these boxes exist!
I'll add my pro tip too as I noticed George's dad saying the wires are "always fighting me" - side cutters are designed to be used the other way when stripping insulation from wires! The angle of the blade works with you in that direction.
Thanks for the tip ! you can tell I am a mechanical engineer !
these look like 451 boxes. I have 450 and they look different. Looks like they are fully compatible and wish I knew that earlier
hello from spain, good video. Is it difficult to take out the dash?
The wires go trough the round tubes on the boxes , not out side
good tip - thanks
Does the dash simply refit back in place or is there any cutting required? Obviously the original speakers would need to come out.
Cheers.
There is no cutting of the dash required
what's the sound like?
So i have been looking for the LHD speaker boxes but so far even with the product codes i cant find a thing on google. Any chance you got a link or where did you pick them up?
I just got them from Mercedes dealer
if you have an original smart radio , theres a small module that you need to insert for the power to increase and getting the crossover between bas en tweeters
can you tell us more?
@@deliciousbokeh there is a sound chip you can add to the grundig radio : www.evilution.co.uk/ice/fitting_the_sound_chip.htm
If thats masking tape you used ? Wont be too long before it falls off>>
you are correct - duct tape would be better.
lots of room for bulkhead (and behind dash) sound proofing.
IF them boxes are a bit boomey you may want stuffing!! ;-)
We wanted boomey .... "boom boom boom shake the room" as the song goes....
He made a 16 mim video about the new sound sistem whitout even playing us the sound of it
They would de-monetise my video if I include music - then I will not be able to feed my kids and my wife will leave me..... is this what you want..... ??
