Installing an acoustic shelf on a VAZ 2107 yourself

Installation of good budget acoustics (speakers, radio) in VAZ 2107, 2106, 2101


Car audio, installation of good budget car acoustics - speakers (speakers), head (radio) in the classic VAZ 2106.
Without a good acoustic system - tuning a VAZ 2106 is like a sandwich without butter. The first thing I advise you to do is soundproofing (soundproofing). Even a non-professional one significantly reduces the noise inside the car, therefore the quality of car sound improves. At the same time, spray all creaking joints of parts with liquid silicone. I did this right away - the squeaks and various rattles are very annoying...

Next, but equally important: think carefully about whether you can do everything yourself - your hands should grow at least two to three centimeters from your butt (not closer!) Budget option - 4 columns: 2 in the front doors (plus 2 beepers on top - included or not) and 2 ovals in the rear parcel shelf. In the front doors: 10 cm (4 inches), 13 cm (5.25 inches), 16 cm (6.5 inches) Rear shelf - ovals 15 * 23 cm (6 * 9 inches) In principle, you can choose it yourself - the seller will advise depending on your wallet, but there are two rules:

  1. Sound quality is only as good as the weakest link. Therefore, it is worth buying a head unit (radio tape recorder), speakers (speakers), etc. same price range. There is no point in buying an expensive head unit (radio tape recorder) and cheap speakers.
  2. It is better to take all devices from one manufacturer. They are usually played well and suit each other best.

I won’t recommend a specific brand - no one pays me for advertising radio tape recorders. Buy in a store - there is no ice on the market... A normal system can be found for 6-8 kilo rubles. Installation location of the front speakers in the VAZ 2106. Remove the door trim, having previously purchased fasteners (some will break). There are three places where it is easiest to install the speakers:

1 2 3

1. I haven’t tried it, although it is possible.

2. by 10, 13 cm. Any one can stand up without any problems, I set it to 16cm - it’s difficult to stand up, it’s a tight fit. I had to saw off a little bit from the bottom rim of the speaker. That is, you must first try on the diameter of the magnet and the height of the speaker. You can bend the iron of the door a little, then it will definitely fit.

In terms of sound quality, the stage is very low, there is no bass at all, when getting out of the car we hit the speaker with our foot.

3. (with glass 07.05 it will not work) After installing the ESP, a problem arose - during installation the speaker (2) rested against the ESP rail. I had to look for another place. After much testing, I found an unexpected place - under the door handle (3). 10 cm, 13 cm will fit without problems, 16 cm fits tightly (in the picture without protection). In order for the hand to fit into the handle, the speaker protection must be flatter, so I removed the ring (in the picture below right), leaving only the left grille with the plastic.

The auto audio has become much better (the stage has risen). Why bother, the sound has become cooler. Bass appeared, and if you lowered your head, it was a complete blast. Before cutting a hole, we carefully try it on, placing the speaker on the door where the hole should be (if you’re not sure, you haven’t drunk, measure seven times and cut once, bad luck). Included with the speakers is a round piece with its dimensions (speakers), which we cut out of a piece of paper, apply to the fiberboard door (trimming) and cut a hole. I knocked out the perimeter with a chisel and hammer.

Included with the speakers are iron figurines. So, we screw the speaker not to the plywood, but to them. We put four around the perimeter, attach the speaker and screw it on (as in the picture) so that the self-tapping screw fits into the hole on the back of the thing.

Tweeters (tweeters)

Install it as high as possible (photos coming soon).

I bought the back shelf at the store. The material of the rear shelf is plywood, preferably not narrower than 8 mm (otherwise it will rattle).

Heavy. The rear speakers should preferably be turned towards the interior (the sound is much better). It’s not difficult to do it yourself, I just didn’t have time. FAQ is available on the Internet. The most budget option is to cut 8-10 mm plywood to the size of the old shelf, cut holes, fit it like a VAZ 2106 door, and you're done.


speakers facing the interior

So, to remove the rear parcel shelf on a VAZ 2106 you need to remove the back of the rear sofa. The arrow shows an iron petal, bending which the rear backrest is removed (there are two of them, on the right and on the left). You need to stick your hand in there and bend them back.

We remove the rear shelf and find out (I don’t know about everyone), but in the place where the speakers should be there is an iron partition (. Here you can’t do without an angle grinder... Cover everything with rags (so as not to spoil it with scale) and cut out the partition so that the speakers can stand up There is no other way(.

Wiring and connection

The connection diagram is clearly described in all instructions. Power is supplied to the car radio via two wires: a plus (+) yellow and red wire, one to the generator, the other to the battery, and a minus (-). I took and wound the red and yellow together and connected it to the positive side of the fuse box (the hazard warning light, I think). Cm.

This amazing design called the podium

Acoustic podium for VAZ 2107

The word "Podium", as you know, is English, and it means "elevation". In acoustics, a podium is a special place for speakers, and they can be both external and internal.

Purpose of podiums

  • If in a car such as a VAZ 2107 the factory does not provide a regular place for a speaker, only installing a podium will allow you to install an acoustic speaker.
  • The podium can be mounted in a car to install a speaker of any size, even much larger than what is provided by the manufacturer.
  • The podium will provide an opportunity to correctly direct the sound of the speaker, which often disappears or weakens due to many factors.
  • The podium gives the entire structure on which the column is attached rigidity and strength.

Acoustic podium in VAZ 2107

In most cases, car radio speakers need to be installed in places where, according to the designers, they should not be. For example, these may not be the speakers themselves, but tweeters or midrange speakers. As for our domestic designers, they did not provide any special standard places for speakers at all, being content with doors or a panel. And there you can only insert small-sized coaxial speakers.

Note. When installing component acoustics in a VAZ 2107, the owner will have to either buy a podium or sculpt it himself. In this case, the speakers will fit as they should and everything will look much nicer, fitting into the overall interior design.

  • In the doors of the VAZ 2107, the manufacturer either does not provide a standard place for speakers at all, or it includes a speaker measuring 13 cm, but no larger. This size, as connoisseurs of good sound know, will not provide volume, but 16 cm or 20 cm is just what you need.
  • For 16 cm speakers, it will be possible to fashion both an external and an internal podium.

Note. If everything is clear with the outer podium, then the inner one is a ring made of thick plywood or chipboard, rigidly attached to the door frame. The internal podium is placed in such a way that the factory trim fits into place without problems.

  • Any speaker has uneven radiation, that is, you can listen to it directly in front of the speaker and then there will be a certain sound quality, and listen to it when turning the speaker to the side, which will give a completely different sound. It is impossible to say unambiguously how to position the speakers most correctly until the sound itself acquires the desired character, and only after that the podium is completed (at least that’s what the professionals advise).
  • The design of the speaker is a piston. A diffuser moves in it and thus compresses the air in front of it, creating sound waves. If everything is clear with this, then you should also know that the speaker is also a reactive system, which is subject to Newton’s third law. This means that if the speaker mounting is insufficient, the speaker will wobble on its support and the sound will come out sluggish and unpleasant.

Note. Installing a podium solves this problem, as it increases the rigidity of the entire structure where the speaker is attached. The “seven” door itself is made of very soft metal that bends easily. Putting a speaker here without a podium is a real crime.

On sale today you can find different podiums for acoustics, but more often they are made of thin plywood, to which orientation rings made of the same material are tightly screwed.

All the voids on the factory podiums are filled with polyurethane foam, but on such podiums, even the coolest acoustics will not play very well. This is due to the fact that sufficient rigidity is not provided. Polyurethane foam is not the point. It will, of course, give the product the desired shape, but only when the rigid body is ready. Therefore, only homemade podiums can be considered as the most valuable option.

on 2107 there are standard places for speakers in the dashboard

165 uev), although now there will probably be aesthetes
