To be honest I'm not sure. I own a 2002 jeep grand Cherokee laredo. I did buy two sets of these because the magnet on my soundstream tarantula series speakers was too deep. Sorry I can't help you out.

To add surround to a TV, the simplest method is to buy a soundbar (set), a single soundbar simulates surround in a single cabinet, some people find that acceptable. If honest-to-God surround is required then the soundbar will come with 1 or more external speakers (hence set). This polk speaker is just one component of many for folks who own amplifier, reciever, the whole sheband stereo system which am guessing is not what you have.

That depends... What are you looking for that this one does not do? We have installed these on many 2013-2014 Wranglers with the 730 nav system The 2013's sounded OK, but there was an issue with range of volume. With amps set high enough to get full power, it was too loud at level "1" on the radio. So, we had to make a compromise. On the 2014 we just installed, it sounded great. Volume range was as much as you could ask for. We are a JL Audio dealer and use only JL amplifiers. Not sure if the change was in the radio or the adapter. You can use the JL "Clean Sweep", but it gets real expensive. That depends... What are you looking for that this one does not do?

Both the dash and the sound bar look the same so they should. Both are easy installs.

Jeffrey, they are sold as a pair and they are kick ass speakers if you are going to drive them with an amp!? The ones I purchased I used as replacements for stock dash speakers and they really did a nice job. They will have to be amplified to really get the sound from them that you want. Hope this helps.

You don't need it but it will make it a lot easier if it is the factory sound system you should just have to match the wires and plug it in

Agree with previous response. Unless your existing wiring is shot, just stick with it. Worst case you need to cut off the connectors and crimp/solder/splice in some new ends to fit the speakers.

This product would do the trick, I had mine install by best buy and I added a Polk audio sub and amp to my stock radio and I love it. It sounds great and the best thing is that I keep all of my factory radio features. Highly recommend this product.

I installed the tweeters on an older TJ, don't know whether these would replace the ones in a 2012 Wrangler.

Im really not sure:/ I dont have a dash speaker in my 80' Scoutii. But the mechanics at best buy helped me out alot.

Yes, you will need two pairs. Each package contains one pair, for two speakers. You'll also need an install kit for the Pioneer (includes mounting brackets, wiring harness and faceplate), four RCA cables to run the low level signals from that to your Pyle amp, power and ground wires FROM THE BATTERY to the amp (do NOT tap the radio's power circuit--you'll overload it, resulting in blown fuses at best), a trigger wire from the Pioneer to turn the amp on, and additional speaker wire to run from the amp back into the wiring harness (do NOT hook up the Pioneer's speaker wires to the wiring harness, and be sure to disable the Pioneer's internal amp). Although using the factory speaker wires may rankle audio purists, it does have the advantage of being completely reversible when you choose to sell the car.

I put these in the sound bar of my 2003 Wrangler. It did improve the bass, probably because it was oversize compared to the factory 5.25 speakers. They fit in the factory holes with no modification.

I use them for my surround speakers so i purchased 2. I would think you would need 2.

Yes, pretty much because the speakers slip onto the posts for your mirrors.unless you decide to mount on handle bars, then you will need the brackets.you will also need some ty-wraps to hide the wires but other wise this thingis plug-and-play!!!..System sounds great.. worth every dollar to me!!good luck and have fun,john A

This unit is made for 2 stereo speakers. Yamaha and others make other models made specifically for soundbars. Many soundbars do not require an amplifier at all. Don't waste your money if you have a soundbar that does not require an amp.

They should. Nothing has changed on the sound bar from 2012 to 2013 as far as I know. One more bit of advice - if you listen to music with a lot of bass it would be a good idea to put some of the acoustic polyfill in the sound bar when you install these speakers. Otherwise when turn up the bass past a certain point you can hear the vibrations in the sound bar itself.

You do not need these! They are only if you are placing your factory stereo. You may need to cut the speaker existing wire connectors though?
