Rear liftgate speaker mod.

99 to 2006 Yukon/Tahoe/Esky: I tried searching but couldnt find anything. Has anyone ever put speakers in the rear liftgate? did it sound good or is it not worth the effort?

never thought about it but it can certainly be done. the difficult part is going to be running the wires thru the grommet, probably easiest to disconnect the harness inside the hatch and pull the harness out of the grommet as far as possible then tape the speaker wire to the harness and pull it back towards the hatch, trying to feed them thru any other way risks damaging the hatch harness

What size speakers were you looking to install? Small drivers exist in the rear pillars, which are low quality and if I recall, wired in parallel or something. I would be concerned of anything with bass in the hatch, and if just high freq is needed, replace the existing pillars with quality drivers and provide dedicated speaker wires and channels. Interested to see what works for you.
