What is Reddit's opinion of Mopar Jeep Wrangler JK Kicker Speaker Upgrade?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

• locker. with a soft top you may want to be able to leave something expensive in your jeep with some peace of mind. any kind of locker that affixes to the vehicle and is made of metal. lots on amazon.

• kicker speaker upgrades, they are a direct replacement, and sound much better for a good price.

• interior LED light replacement, you can get a drop in LED dome light replacement at your local shop that will let you actually see inside when you need to.

• mopar gas cap cover, if yours doesn't have one.

• little stick-on wide angle mirrors, big help for blind spots. they're everywhere and cheap, find one you like and put on one or both mirrors in the corner.

If they are the same model I’d get the cheaper ones. Hard to tell without a link. I bought mine off Amazon. All the holes matched up and it was easy as pie. Stuff some pillow material in the soy bar and you’ll get a little more punch. https://www.amazon.com/JEEP-WRANGLER-KICKER-SPEAKER-UPGRADE/dp/B004SUO5QS/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=kicker+jeep+jk+speakers&qid=1621537012&sprefix=kicker+jeep+&sr=8-2

Shoot. Thanks though. I was probably gonna jump the bullet and buy the sub tomorrow.

I still want a speaker upgrade though, and these obviously won’t give off too much bass, but would these still be a good purchase?

I just did these in my soundbar on my 2017. Difference is night and day and it took me all of 5 minutes to install them.

I just upgraded the speakers last night in the sound bar that sits over your head with these:

These speakers made a pretty significant difference in sound quality. It added some bass and clarity, and the stereo can now go to a high volume without any distortion. These speakers have been heavily reviewed on wranglerforum and most people really like them. I feel they were well worth the price. If you want to spend more you could buy 2 pairs and switch out the fronts as well.

After doing that, and if you still aren't satisfied, the next step would be a head unit that puts out more power.

Edit: BTW, these are super easy to install. Just get a T15 or T20 TORX bit and it's 3 screws for the cover, 3 screws for the speaker, and then you unclip the old ones and reclip in the new ones. All plug and play. Just try not to drop the screws.

I did mine right when I bought it. Cheap and sound good. Easy switch out too. Add the pillow stuff. YouTube the instructions. JEEP WRANGLER JK KICKER SPEAKER UPGRADE https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B004SUO5QS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_i_KYQPJ3MSXQXABA9NM4C3

Go the easy route and order some Kickers off Amazon. $60 for the set, plug and play, and sound great. Kicker Speakers

I just did the Kicker speaker upgrade and it was only $180 for all 4, its a huge improvement over the stock speakers and only took about an hour to install. https://www.amazon.com/Mopar-Wrangler-Kicker-Speaker-Upgrade/dp/B004SUO5QS

A pioneer head unit from Walmart and the wire harness from o’riellys

Pioneer DMH-160bt head unit

Metra electronics radio dash kit

Metra electronics radio wire harness

Red Wolf radio antenna adapter

USB 3.0 flush mount extension cable

Mopar Kicker speaker upgrade (plug and play)

For the usb flush mount I removed the cigarette lighter on the bottom left and mounted it in that hole and plugged it into the USB port on the back of the radio. Otherwise you can run a pretty long cable from the back of the radio through the glove box and let it hang so you can use CarPlay or android auto. I’m a CarPlay user. To top it all off I installed the mopar kicker speaker upgrades in the dash and soundbar. They’re plug and play and ran me about $140 for all 4 speakers. Total price for eveything is about $530 total and I had a friend help me wire up and install the harness.

Don’t do it. Uconnect is hot garbage. I don’t know if you’re still looking or you’ve gotten the parts but this is what I’m using in my JK (09’ 2 door X model)

I have the same 2015 unlimited sport and the speakers were pretty bad.

I have this amp mounted under the driver dash to the left of the brake pedal. There is a little cross bar. I fabricated a bracket out of an old steel computer case and some rivets.

4x of the Kicker 77KICK10. Those are a direct fit part and improve the quality by far even without the amp

4x of these 3.5" speakers to replace the stock paper crap.

After replacing all of these, this sounds great for me. I also have a 10" sub that runs off the same amp in the back that I can remove at any time when I choose to take my hard top off. I just googled some Jeep speaker replacement and managed to do it all myself.

This is plenty loud so that if I had the top off and going down the highway I would have no problem hearing anything, no crackling or distortion. let me know if you have any particular questions
