Default Premium door speakers

I'm contemplating upgrading from the standard SE spec speakers and amp (200w) to the premium speakers found in some high spec models.

Does anyone know of any S60 or v70 that is being broken that might have these and the front door cards (in black)?


Thanks!

From experience, just finding one is like finding rocking horse droppings!!! They are very very hard to come by, especially a full set i would have thought.

It took me 6 months to find a breaker which had the right type of "twin" speaker.

Sorry its not much help but an experience shared!

I looked into this for our V70 – aren't the front door cards different for these dual speakers? I put a secondhand subwoofer in instead and this has made a huge difference. I presume the speakers in our SE spec model are not the premium ones.
