This simple guide shows how to upgrade/replace the door speakers on a VW Polo and includes part numbers for any adapters needed along with any tools to make the job go smoothly.
The speaker adapters that Amazon say are for a 9N3 front and rear 17cm look like are only about half or 3/4 the depth of these. Getting the car tomorrow, I don't want to get the door card off and find those are maybe an inch too shallow compared to the original, and the ones that you purchased, so might send them back now (2 x sets!) Thanks for this vid, must have watched it 10 times in prep already, and will again as I fit them!
Extremely useful video... I've got a 2005 VW Polo too and this video has given me a lot of confidence before undertaking the job. One addition I'd make would be to use this opportunity to add some sound deadening material/foam in the recess behind the speaker and on the door between the panels. You won't regret it.
I have replaced the speakers with the help of this video and another due to the difference of the driver and passenger doors. I installed 16,5cm speakers but they do not fit out of the box since they are slightly larger than the original ones. On the inside of the door card where the speaker would sit there is some plastic sticking out, not sure what it is intended for but I had to cut it away with a multi-tool. After that the door card was able to close.
One issue though... this video is only for the passenger side... the driver side is substantially different when taking the door handle/cables/etc off. Rest I assume it's the same. Would've helped even more to have a video for both sides.
Great video?i’m going to be doing just that soon to my Daughters 2009 polo,she is using Edge speakers,so any idea what fitting kit she will need?also I’ll be fitting 2 speakers to the rear doors,any idea if there are any speakers in the rear doors,have you done a video on Vw Polo rear door speakers,
Thanks a lot for this video, will save me a lot of time when upgrading my door speakers. I also have a 2004 VW polo.

I've found that the factory speakers are powerful enough to send all the mirrors vibrating like crazy in the first place anyway

Great video, would you be able to do one for a mark 5 polo?
My speakers came with a mounting kit would you suggest getting different ones
Hi, your videos are really insightful! Do you have one of a stereo removal and refitting of a MK4 Polo?
Does the mounting ring and the adapter come with the speakers?
