2004 Sc340 Subwoofer Replacement

[HIsc430]

Aloha everybody! I recently blew my passenger side subwoofer. Warrenty expired last year. While waiting for some extra cash to replace it, I put the output only to the drivers side so I wouldn't get rattleling sounds. Thus why I now have TWO blown subwoofers in my car. :(

Going through this website, I haven't found info on a 2004 sc430 subwoofer replacement option. Would there be anyone out there that has had this problem that replaced the speakers on their own? I've read on previous years models concerning about the ohms problem on after market speakers, but also looking for guidance on how to actually take off the door panels and such.

Too much to ask perhaps??? I love my Lexus and want to continue to improve it.

Mahalo! (Thank you)

Take a look at this.

I followed the instructions but did not replace the 6x9 woofers. I simply used a glue gun to reattach the rim of the speaker paper cone to the metal frame. It works fine for me.

Again be careful. The plastic clips are fragile and easy to break.

If you are not a handy person, ask someone good at his kind of stuff to help you.

The dealer quoted me $700 to replace these defective speakers. ?stealership?

It is the poor quality that leads to the premature failure.

I think Lexus should have a factory recall on all these speakers.
