I just purchased a 2025 Nighthawk. The stock speakers are not loud and sound bad. I don't want to invest more than a thousand . Can I just change out the speakers ? Any suggestions? Thank you

Why did you not replace the knee speakers ? too much work to replace ?

Yea I wasn’t trying to disassemble the whole dash

yea it was to much to disassemble the whole dash for those two. The four in the soundbar and two in the dash was pretty impressive by them selves.

I went with kicker CS speaker for the dash and the two sets of roll bar speakers. Huuuuge improvement and took about 30 mins to do the 6 of them. Then I added a powered 10 inch kicker subwoofer behind the back seats that really made it come alive. Also a relatively easy install. Highly recommended

Is there a plug and play subwoofer ? Could you send a link for yours?

Did you run an amp or just hook this up?

I have the basic stereo with no amp just upgraded with the Kicker speakers and sub. The sub has an amp built in. Has more then enough juice for the little cab if a jeep. It’s not gonna make your windows rattle but really wakes up the stereo. The speakers were a nice upgrade but the sub was a must that pulled it all together.

Also order your speakers from crutchfield cause they come with speaker harness to plug into the factory ones for free

Could you link to the specific speakers? When I had reached out to crutchfield, they were stating you would need some special wiring/resistors etc with the setup I was looking at (for the roll bar speakers).

This was my order … the ones listed as on back order in the picture were the tweeter that I think switched to a mid … they came with the resistor that they are talking about ..
