It sounds like you are missing the speakers behind the seats. There is a 'storage box' that the speakers would be inside that sits on the shelf (engine cover) under the roll bar behind the seats. I do not have this in my car; perhaps others who are more knowledgeable about stereos will reply.

Hope this helps.

I have the stotage box.. it has a central compartment and two small compartments to the side.. but I don't see (or hear ) any speakers there..

I thought rear speakers should be on top of storage compartment.. like in regular cars?

Thanks
Sasha

Check out the above thread. It has some images of how the speakers are installed in the storage compartment.

Thanks for the link.. now I know where the should be.

I have rear storage with holes on it.. now I have to find out where my M490 amplifier is.. and get 2 small speakers for rear storage.

Thanks a lot

Option 490

I believe you are referring to Option 490 (Hifi Sound system) and what they are referring to is: 2 - sub woofers in door panels and 2 - midrange combined with 2 - tweeters in the dash mounted "pods" If you remove the covers of your dash mounted speakers you will find that each one houses a tweeter and a midrange.
