Someone enlighten me. Do we not have speakers in the back seat behind the passengers head? My friend was sitting back there and he is telling me no sound is coming out. So I start toying with the unit thinking the fade is messed up, not that, so I check all the wires, not that, but then I look in the under side of the trunk and I swear all I see is the underside of the grill that is supposedly covering the speaker. Is there no speakers back there or are mine F'd up??
No rear speakers??

the subwoofer is back there...
These are the speakers in the MSP (also listed in 1st MP3's Sticky in the Car Audio section)
6x8" Kenwood Excelons in the Front Doors
6" Kenwood Excelons in the Rear Doors
8" Kenwood Sub (not Excelon...and a POS! Mine broke for the second time. Good thing I'm getting a new set-up!)

Um....nope. I just removed my sub enclosure this weekend. The sub is in a sealed enclosure, firing downward into the trunk. The top side is solid particle board or plywood covered in carpet. I also had to rip out the rear deck covering, and those holes in the rear deck are covered by plastic pieces. No ports on this sorry as sub...they'd probably break it anyway!

agreed with all these posts. u might be able to put some speakers back there though. but im not sure if anyone knows or has tried this yet.
I found this myself when I tore out that crappy Kenwood sub. There are no ports, just useless screens that look cool. I do think that the car is prewired for it though. The deck has a control feature for midbass drivers (that we currently do not have). And if memory serves those back plates did have wires running to them. If it is pre-wired the install would be very easy.
On another note the Kenwood enclosure uses what looks to be a 1" thick peice of mdf, or whatever the wood is that is DAMN heavy compared to other boxes. When I took mine out, alon with the mounting hardware I drove around for like 2-3 weeks before putting my new sub in. I was amazed to find that I could actually feel a difference in acceleration. This has given me a bug to take as much weight out of this baby as i can
