So has anyone ever seen a first gen with a center channel or subs in the deck? I came across this while just surfing the net and these darn items have part numbers to go with them! I'll love to see a car with this in it.

Curious if this is an item with an option code, or upgraded audio package or just some cars had it and others didn't?

I see your link is to the amp (item 7), would item 15 (subwoofers) in the rear parcel shelf be what you're looking for? Or, item 13 (tweeter) in the dash ?

That link was just to get to the page. From there you should be able to look up everything. That rear parcel with the subs is $1500+ 😳

TJ ... when I designed my system I looked at the rear parcel shelf, I intend to move the rear side speakers & adopted them to the rear parcel shelf, but its not possible, under the boot there are modules plus under the leather panel its steel, unless Im mistaken & someone can put me right thats what I found,
what year was the parcel shelf with subs made ...
The centre speaker where the heating grill is, didn't Johnny do something when he did that total build, I'll have a look at his thread Im sure I saw something he posted when he installed the Naim system ...

It gave me two options, 03-11 and 13-17 I think. So I always pick the first gen since that’s what I have.

Yea I went back to my memory of Johnny’s thread and thought it was something there/in the way. And as for the subs, maybe Bentley used shallow mount ones so they didn’t interfere with the modules 🤔.

It’s just shocking to me they sell or sold this stuff. Maybe I’ll call them one day just to pick their brains.

Guess if your bored and search long enough, you’ll find anything on the net........


$500 on eBay

I'll have to search the forum but I believe Johnny added the center channel and the sub panel in his car.

Yes, the center channel front tweeter and rear sub deck are for the 2010 and up GT NAIM audio systems, the non NAIM systems did not offer the center channel front tweeter nor the rear subs.

Nah....I’m good, it’s all yours Mr. Johnny.

Rico, I’m still gathering things. Have to pay bills first then sort out the toys. It’s coming around tho (in my mind) but I’ll be putting it into action soon.

Hi Johnny ... As mentioned I'm sure you installed a centre speaker on your build, TJ is looking to do the same with his audio system.
The rear subs shelf is all yours if TJ isn't bidding for it, yes a great find by Mr TJ ...
