ML Deteriorated. Only dash tweeters left original.
ML Deteriorated. Only dash tweeters left original.
Since I bought my car in 2008, sub and both front speakers were blown and changed short after to aftermarket. Fast forward to now. Again changed my fronts to 6.5" Alpine S-Type components powered by 4 channnel Kenwood amp. When I installed fronts I decided to check on rears. To my surprise they were blown, totally, with paper pieces from the cone in the door panel speaker grille. So i ordered 4" Alpine S-Type coaxial speakers, they had great reviews online, low rms power rating since they will run off stock ML amp and I liked how my 6.5" Alpines sounded.
Today I finally installed rear speakers. They fit great, right where the old one was with a very minor modification. Now system sounds amazing, clear and loud, just what I wanted.
Now only dash tweeters are left stock. Just for future reference, how do I change these?
Also, is it possible to get a signal from an ML headunit to an aftermarket amp? Now my amp gets signal from rear speakers.
P.S. dynamat helped alot with the whole system, it's much tighter and louder.

I thought i was the only one with blown front speakers , the right side speaker blew the next day i bought the car and now the driver side is rattling too!
What speakers do i get if i don't wanna run an aftermarket AMP, i wanna keep the stock amp in place.

So I would not put an ML amp in jeopardy, it's very expensive and your nav will not function without it.
In order to change the tweeters on these cars you HAVE TO REMOVE THE DASH There is no getting around it. In fact I spent my entire weekend trying to get to these speakers. They are mounted from underneath and there is no way to access the bolts without removing the dash itself.
