I need to replace all four of my struts in my 4 cyl. built in Japan Camry.> I am planning on doing it myself and would like to get some feedback on> what other parts should also be replaced besides the struts themselves.> Also, what brand should I go with?

The rear speaker(s) in my 99 Camry have always sounded fine.>

You need to remove the whole rear shelf tray itself to access the bolts> that hold down the speakers>

Start by removing the rear seat cushion--just pull up firmly at the> front edge where the cushion meets the floor on the left and right side.> Next, you may need to also remove the C pillar trim panels on either side> of the rear window.> Then unbolt the two side bolsters for the seat back and fold down the> seatback halves. Remove the center mount stoplight (instructions are in> the bulb replacement section of your owner's manual). Pull the tray> toward the front of the car, leave the shoulder harnesses alone.>

You won't be able to remove it completely but should have enough slack> in the belts so you can get it out of the way of the speakers. There> should be 3 screws holding down the OEM speakers. If you go with after> market 6x9s you will have to drill> four new holes. It's no big deal if you have a 90 degree angle drill,> because the rear window makes it tight.

Hope this answers your question.>
