adding cabin speakers to old school Xstar?
 
Has anyone ever added speaker to an old school X Star? I have a 2002 and its very weak having two speakers in the cabin one behind drivers seat on floor twords the back on passenger side. If so and you have pictures please post.

What about dashboard?...or just add more in the floor location. - or walkthru....

Do you have tower speakers? That is a pretty small boat so anything on the tower is going to overwhelm the cabin.

I have seen a couple 205V's with speakers mounted in a similar place to the older nautiques. If you follow the driver's panel to where it meats the vinyl arm fro the rear they mounted the speaker in that vinyl arm just in front of the rear bench. They then matched it on the passenger side panel.
I have also seen one mounted tobthe drivers panel just behind the drivers seat along withone mounted under the observers seat on the floor area similar to the factory 2.

Cutting into vinyl is much like drilling into fiberglass. Its simple, just takes planning. If you look the bow speakers still have all the vinyl in tact it was just x'd into 4 triangles so to speak. The harp part is centering the hole on the back starboard and fiberglass. A good hole saw will make it a piece of cake and u can find one big enough to drill out the speaker hole.
