i everyone,
I’m upgrading the audio in my **2016 Toyota Yaris (4-door, automatic, Canadian model)** and need advice on two things: ### **1. Replacing Door Speakers (No Cutting, OEM Connectors)** I want to replace the factory speakers **without cutting any wires** or damaging clips/panels. Here’s what I need: - **Speaker adapters**: Which **harness adapters** (e.g., Metra 72-8104?) and **mounting brackets** fit the 2016 Yaris doors? - **Step-by-step tips**: How to safely remove door panels (especially the front doors)? Any hidden clips/screws I should know about? - **Polarity**: How to confirm +/- wires without a multimeter? ### **2. Running Amp Power Wire (Battery to Trunk)** I’m installing an amp in the trunk and need to route **4-gauge power wire** from the battery. Questions: - **Firewall passthrough**: Where’s the best grommet to use behind the glovebox? (Photos would help!) - **Routing path**: Along the sill panels or under the carpet? Any tricky spots to avoid? - **Grounding**: Best grounding point near the trunk? **Additional Info:** - I’m in Canada (cold winters – any wire insulation tips?). - I’d prefer **OEM-friendly solutions** (no cutting/drilling if possible). Thanks in advance! Photos, links to adapters, or personal experience with this gen Yaris would be *hugely* appreciated. |

Metra 72-8104 should be the correct adapter harness for your car.
If I remember right, the speakers in our 3rd gens are riveted on and will need to be drilled out. I live in Alberta, -40s are the norm during winter, whatever insulation comes from the factory should be sufficient for Montreal. https://paulstravelpictures.com/Toyo...Removal-Guide/ This dude has a bunch of really good guides on maintenance stuff regarding 3rd gens, give his site a look. I can't help you about amp power, audio mods aren't my thing outside of a good set of speakers. lol
