This guide is for the Cactus which has only front speakers.
What do you need:
1. Speakers, 6,5 inches or 165 mm.
2. Speaker rings, Citroen part no 6562CV
3. Center pillar connector pins: 4 X 6541G2 + 4 X 6541N5
4. Under dash connector pins: 1 X 6541N5 + 3 X 6541E6
5. Speaker wire 0,75 mm2 and connectors to the speakers
6. Activate fader function, dealer only
I did it in two different stages, first I routed the wires to the center pillars. Start by removing the trim. Start with the center pillar upper white part, bend it out from the bottom up, behind are two screws:
Next bend the back side trim upwards in order to remove one screw:
Now remove the center black trim and one screw from the trim next to the front seat. Remove that piece of trim also.
Next remove the underside trim from the dash and you should see the yellow connector:
In that connector there are speaker wires, you can see that they come in from one side and the opposite side has 4 empty holes:
The wires are as follows:
Grey: LR-
Brown: LR+
Green: RR+
Purple: RR-
On the empty side of the connector there are three similar size holes and one slightly bigger. Use the pins as described in section 4, connect the wires to the pins and insert them. You have to slide back/out the black part, the pins will not go all the way in otherwise. Now route the cable to the center pillar.
Next remove the back door panel. There are 4 screws, torx T20 and T30:
Then it is just pulling, the plastic trim removal tool is helpful. It sits hard and you will brake some fasteners so have some spares ready.
Then remove the white foam insulation panels, applying heat to the glue strips helps. Try not to brake them. Speaker hole has also some foam cover, remove it. Then route the wire through the door rubber boot to the connector. This is the door before speakers, I replaced one of the factory foam panel with thicker one to improve sound insulation:
The center connector is better to remove when the rear door is closed, just push to the sides and pull. You can also remove the rubber boot first then you can see where to push.
There are lots of empty slots in the connector, the pins described in section 3 go to the bigger ones. The procedure is the same, connect wires and insert pins to both sides. This time you have to slide back the yellow parts in order to insert pins all the way in. I removed one but it is not necessary. I can not explain how to slide them back but if you look at them you figure it out.
Finally attach the speaker rings or attach the speakers to the rings first, connect the wires to the speaker and put all back.
I learned that aftermarket speakers are not direct fit to the rings, some minor adjustments have to be made, I put some thin foam tape between the ring and the speaker and modified the speaker screw holes a little.
The subwoofer is next.
Good Luck
