Kit Contents

The METRA 82-VW1 combines ABS speaker adapter plates and matching wiring harnesses in a single package. Both items are supplied as a pair, so the installer has everything needed for the front door locations without sourcing separate parts.

Installation Benefits

The adapter plates accept 6.5 in. to 6.75 in. aftermarket speakers and mount directly to the factory openings, eliminating cutting or panel modification. The included harnesses plug into the original Volkswagen wiring, preserving the vehicle's electrical system and speeding up the swap.

Vehicle Fitment

This kit is engineered for Volkswagen models produced between 1998 and 2015, covering a wide range of front-door applications. Buyers with vehicles outside that range or those needing rear-door adapters should verify compatibility before purchasing.

Questions about this item

Will the ABS speaker adapter plates need replacing after long exposure to sun and road salt?

The plates passed a 1000 hour torture test, 500 hour salt-spray test and 500 hour UV-A test, so they are built to withstand extended sun and salt exposure.

What power level will the kit's harnesses and crossover handle before clipping?

The kit is rated for 80 watts RMS and 160 watts peak power handling with a 6 dB passive crossover.

How much heat or noise does the kit add when the speakers run all day?

The adapter plates and harnesses are passive components; they generate no heat or noise themselves, and the IPX5 rating confirms water-jet resistance during long drives.
