    2016 CX-5 Full System Install (non-Bose, standard audio with display)

    Ah okay thanks, I didn't pull the centre console off (just enough to tuck the speaker cable under it) so I'll give that a shot and see if it grounds better, thanks for the suggestion! It's pretty frustrating I've wondered whether it could be because we're running the amplifiers from the...

    Removing dash speaker grilles

    Is anyone able to post of a photo of exactly what they do? I gave it a bit of a shot with a flathead screw driver but like CCR76 said the surface always ends up screwed when using them (and I can see it happening already with the couple of goes I've had at it). I also got some of the plastic...
