3 door 2000 Hyundai Accent - Australia

Discussion in 'Hyundai Accent' started by Carsten Bauer, Jan 1, 2004.

  1. Hi all,

    I've installed a new cd player into my Accent, cutting the corners out
    of the original oval shape slot in the centre facia.

    I want to get new speakers for the front and rear, and I dont know
    what size I need. Also, I cant seem to open the rear speaker covers,
    the screws just keep turning and turning, and i cant prise open the
    cover. Are they just meant to unscrew the 2 screws and lift the cover
    up easily? Or is there a trick to it?

    I dont want to force it, and end up breaking it :(

    Thanks all

    i have a 2001 accent and have done what you did to change the stock
    cassette to a mp3 player. just sawed the corners back. i did buy a
    cheap blue light frame to stick over the facia afterwards so it at
    least looks half decent.
    i replaced the standard speakers with 130mm ones from Jaycar that had
    a separate tweeter on them, they bolt straight into both the front and
    rear. the rear covers are as tight as buggery but after undoing the 2
    screws it's just a matter of levering them off. Hyundai must have a
    patent on having the tightest clips ever found, it must guarantee
    never having anything ever rattle or fall off.
    i found doing the front speakers to be far more fiddly, but my body is
    getting stiffer and my eyesight is getting worse as i drift into old
    age.
