speakers
I am looking to upgrade my standard speakers in my puma.
I know lots have done this on here, I know its quite a shallow fit for direct fit, but I guess with spacers I can go a little deeper.

Looking for a louder, clearer speaker witha touch more bass if possible, any suggestions and if so links to website where I can purchase.

Cheers Very Happy

10cm and 13cm are your only options really. 10cm gives IMO a very good improvement and 130 just a touch more power again. But the 13cm's will be a pint to fit! Personally I haven't bothered as the power difference isn't IMO worth changing for s the 10cms are more or less a straight swap..
If you'd like any links / suggestions for what to actually go for please let me know. Thumbs Up But remember both 10 and 13cm will not give great bass due to their size so perhaps consider a Subwoofer. Thumbs Up

Thanks, I was thinking the 10 would be my best option.
Dont want to mess around with fitting to much to be honest, I may consider a sub at a later date.
Some links would be good.

I remember my old renault 19 when I was younger, I fitted two 15 inch jbl subs, a rockford fosgate amp, and 6x9s jl audio. It cost loads and the car was only worth 500 quid, the lot got nicked. Big Cry

Oh dear. Neutral Fitting wise it's just a remove and fit job. Except for I removed all four of my LR spade terminals not sure if positive or not and put on a standardised female pre ins spades on. The LR ones were too small but the other plug was fine as standard.

If you want to have your grilles straight on exactly rather than at an angle you will need to do this:

Like I did but I am fussy and you may not want to bother with this. All the fixings are supplied as standard with the speakers.
My speakers are the same model as in the link just mine are the older design grille now. Thumbs Up Diesel$ Live$ Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️ RED, WHITE & BOOST! 🇬🇧

Thats great Steve, easy fit is what I am looking for, those kenwoods are decent sounding then?
Will I need a spacer or are these ok?
Cheers

They have a good frequency range yes. And in future if you want a little more highs try some aftermarket tweeters or more lows a sub. They are good all round IMO never pushed them hard because they get too loud then again I prefer powerful bassy music on a lower volume than high volume can't hear yourself think type. And no spacers required with these. They were what I wanted to avoid as I don't like the stuck out look.
Feel free to drop me a PM if you want any other help. Thumbs Up Diesel$ Live$ Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️ RED, WHITE & BOOST! 🇬🇧
