Found a plug under center dashboard tray

I wouldn't bother adding that speaker as many actually choose to unplug it. Since it is not stereo, it doesn't improve imaging and only slightly increases the overall volume. You would be better served replacing the door speakers and A-pillar tweeters with something like the OE69C-FD from PowerBass if you are interested in upgrading your audio.

I have used PowerBass before in my Tundra and their speakers work great. I will for sure look into this. Thank you!

Sometimes the sound is better without the center speaker. I have a Sprinter van and when the speaker was disconnected, the sound was amazing. All of the other speakers were finally heard.

Interesting. I am just wondering if the center speaker would even play through that wire. If the stereo is even wired to it. Also I wonder if lowering the Ohms of speakers in your doors would pull more power towards them and give a better boost.

Great questions. If you get a speaker and give it a try, let us know how it goes. I'll bet it works!

in my 2022 STX Found a plug under center dashboard tray. Not sure what it does.

is it power or sound ? If anyone knows

Since no one else asked ,just curious as to why you removed the top panel to start with?

I was looking a way to add USB port up there. Doing research before I ran the cables. Also was considering to power my Midland Radio up there.

Just ordered 8ohm sony speakers. Not the paper kind that comes in our F150s. This one same size and same specifications but made by Sony and is used in Fusion and a Lincoln vehicles 8A8T-18808-CA

I ordered 2 on ebay

What should be used is this speaker https://www.ebay.com/itm/374411097017

But I wanted to go with Sony cheaper plastic cone speaker vs paper.

Maybe this will help with how it is set up . I was removing it to see what head was used on the nav sat delete. Your photo helped me to see that you do not need to tear the whole dash apart to remove the head unit (ACM).

Plugged in a center speaker by FoMoCo. Nothing coming out of the sound at all. So the wire is not active.
