Polk 401 speakers

[sleadhed]

Have any of you installed these in the rear? I got these for the front, Now I am wondering if they will fit in the rear without modification.

Have you up-graded the rears? what did you use for a speaker? Did you have to modify?

To answer your question, yes they work and very well I might add.

A few pointers though.

Front speakers are a little snug as far as the holes in the speaker going onto the post, but do fit fine. I removed the protective screens off the factory speaker and put them in front of the new ones (like the old speakers had them) and re-installed. You can bend the Polk mounting holes/tabs in to make them tighten nice and snug. You will see this when you do the change out.

 

Rears are easy too. I went ahead and ordered the new arm rest pads since it made it easier to re-install.

 

They sound great.
