Lada Granta standard installation of radio and speakers


Domestic manufacturer AvtoVAZ regularly tries to introduce something new into its products. The plant often focuses on the wishes of consumers, so the advice of most drivers of previous Lada models was no exception.

As you know, the old VAZ-2110 and VAZ-2112 models did not provide audio preparation, which is why the owners of these versions of the Lada were forced to completely redo the interior to accommodate the acoustic system. Audio preparation in Grant was provided for during design.

All the necessary wires for the acoustics are present in the stock car. There is also the possibility of placing the multimedia system in a special opening in the dashboard. There is also electrical wiring for the radio, rear and front speakers.

Taken together, this makes for a PRETTY SIMPLE connection to the AUDIO SYSTEM YOU WANT to do. However, once you understand the electronics of the machine and allocate a sufficient amount of time for this, you can carry out the installation yourself.

The feasibility of conducting audio training in the Lada Granta largely depends on the assembly of the car. On the “Norma” and “Standard” fret trim levels, the owner only needs to connect the audio system to the controls, because the manufacturer independently carries out the audio preparation.

Lada Granta Norma

In the Lada Grant Norma, the audio preparation is configured in such a way that the door wires are connected to the head unit, which already powers the audio system itself. The car owner will only have to connect the radio and speakers.

The Lada Granta series has a flaw: the AvtoVAZ connectors for audio systems do not match the connectors of audio equipment manufacturers. Because of this, you have to additionally purchase the necessary wires and connect them directly, while paying attention to the corresponding symbols.

For example, the space for the speakers on the Norma doors is indicated by a corrugated pattern. It will be necessary to cut an opening to connect the speakers.

Instead of a total

  • If we install a simple radio, the size should be no more than 178 * 50 mm. Installation requires plastic spatulas or a screwdriver. Adapters and slides are included .
  • To install 2 din, you need a new overlay on the console, a decorative frame on the GU itself, wire cutters and a metal blade to adjust the installation location.
  • Are we replacing the standard speakers with another of the same size? Still need a new decorative frame . Otherwise, gaps in the panel will be visible.

Audio system in the car

AvtoVAZ constantly strives to make certain improvements to its products. At the same time, the plant often focuses on consumer advice, and the recommendations of the majority of owners of previous Lada models were no exception. As you know, audio preparation was not provided in the VAZ-2110 and VAZ-2112 models, so the owners of these versions of the Lada had to completely re-equip the interior to accommodate acoustics.

Lada Granta Standard

The audio preparation of the Lada Granta Standard is arranged as follows: the car has power wiring harnesses connected to the head unit. Such wires are present only in the radio; there are no visible outputs of wires for the speaker on the doors.

Therefore, on the basic configuration of the car, the wires do not reach the audio system speakers. Under the panel on the driver's seat side there are wire outlets for the radio.

In order to connect them into one system, you need to find the corresponding audio system wire outputs on the Lada doors. After finding all the necessary outputs, the wires located on the panel are connected to the wires that are built into the doors.

On a car of this configuration, you will need to run the wires to the dashboard alone.

A few words about this configuration. The “Lux” assembly has a factory pre-installed radio with speakers. The radio has at its disposal such additional functions as a 5-inch touch screen, which also has a line input, a Bluetooth headset, and the ability to read flash media.

What is the functionality of the radio?

The fact that there is a standard radio in the domestic car Lada Granta Lux and in Kalina-2, and the devices are constantly being improved. A special feature of the radio is that it fits deep into the standard place, which is accompanied by minor difficulties when removing it. The large monochrome display displays a user-friendly interface.

Reviews from owners indicate that the software has an operating system based on the legendary Windows, the potential capabilities of which are increased by firmware. It is possible to create a desktop in the image of a household computer and connect to the Internet. To do this, you should use a 3g modem.

If you need to enter data, manipulation can be done using the on-screen keyboard. Own memory is not enough, so to meet the ever-growing demands of owners, it is recommended to use an SD card as a storage medium. This drawback is included in the list of reasons, due to the relevance of which, most motorists prefer choosing a foreign vehicle.

A convenient option for connecting with a mobile phone is available for the Lada Granta radio. This allows you to make calls without having to take your phone out of your pocket. You only need to activate a specific button on the device display. This is a kind of extended “hands-free” function.

The radio receiver is also not without pleasant features. If you program a news wave, the device will automatically switch to it from any other channel when a program on the designated topic begins broadcasting.

In the LADA Granta standard, the radio with an integrated LCD display is capable of supporting such file formats as:

  • outdated "MP3";
  • "WMA";
  • "WAV";
  • video files that support the “WMV” extension.

Conclusions and recommendations

Conducting standard audio preparation in cars such as, for example, the Lada Granta has now become much easier, because there is no need to conduct the wires themselves and the owners only have to make their proper connection.

Thus, the corresponding wires are connected to the power connector of the radio, as well as the connector for the speakers. Do not forget about the insulation of wires that are supplied directly.

After this, we cut out an opening in the door, where we insert the speaker and secure them with the appropriate fasteners. Most often, 5-inch speakers are mounted in doors.

Remember that independently connecting an audio system to existing factory outputs is in no way considered an excuse for refusing warranty service.

“Voicing” the Lada Granta is not at all difficult - provided that one set of acoustic systems (speakers) is enough for you.

LADA > Granta

The “norm” package includes the so-called audio preparation, that is, blocks with connected electrical wiring harnesses for connecting the head unit and speakers in the doors. The hardest thing is to do everything beautifully

Features of audio system installation

When connecting the audio system wiring, you should take into account some of the power supply features of this unit. This is provided in the car via red and yellow wires. The task of the first is to remember the audio system settings, and the task of the second wire is to turn off the radio, the process of which depends on the position of the ignition key.

The manufacturer recommends using a parallel method of connecting both wires; in this case, the audio system will only be turned off manually, and the ignition key will not influence the operation of the radio.

You can find many videos on the Internet where a radio is installed on a Grant video, but there is no universal option for installing an audio system on this car. Here, a lot depends on the equipment of the Grant, and the richer it is, the less headache it gives its owner with the installation of the radio.

Almost always, when a radio is installed in Grant, the installation is carried out with the negative terminal on the battery removed. Failure to comply with basic safety requirements can not only damage the acoustic equipment, but also significantly damage the entire electrical system of the car.

In such a matter as installing a Grant radio, haste cannot in any way contribute to a successful installation, because the stable operation of the audio system and the good mood of the driver who has decided to acquire car “music” depend on the quality of the installation and compliance with safety measures.

LADA Granta

And the plant promises to bring Granta to the market with a standard audio system in the middle of the year. Let's see! Let's listen!

Acoustics in Lada Granta

It's no secret that acoustics in a car are very necessary and perform various functions. Installing it is a bit of a concern for novice motorists: they find it difficult to choose the right speakers, they do not have enough money for high-quality installation, etc. This article was written solely to help everyone in this matter and we will find out how to install acoustics in a Lada Granta with our own hands. The Lada Granta and the acoustics, installed correctly in its interior, taken together, will create a completely different car, which even the owners of some foreign cars will look at with envy.

Car radio installation

Acoustics in Lada Granta

The car radio for the Lada Granta must be selected in such a way that its connection corresponds to the 1 din connector.

Note. You can also install a car radio with 2 din on the Lada Granta, but then you will have to cut out the partition and adjust the frame in the console to the size, which is very, very labor-intensive.

  • We dismantle the plastic pocket that stands in place of the future car radio. We use a flat blade screwdriver. On the back of the pocket we see slots where you will need to insert ISO connectors.

Installation of car radio in Lada Granta

  • The metal frame is removed from the radio and installed in the same place where the pocket was removed. We unbend the frame's antennae and securely fix it.
  • We connect the connectors to the car radio. Then we insert it into the frame.

We check the operation of the car radio, and if it is functioning normally, then we move on to the next stage of our operation.

Installing front speakers

Acoustics for Lada Granta

Before moving on to the actual algorithm for installing the front speakers (see How to choose speakers for a car radio on your own), let us remind you that this car has already been equipped with standard seats and there is no need to do anything new. But a serious problem arises when installing two-component acoustics. And yet, modernization will have to be carried out, since the diameter of the standard seats is quite limited, however, as on other car models.

Note. If, for example, we want to install high-quality 16 cm acoustics on a Lada Granta, then another intractable problem will arise. The front windows may not open all the way and will hit the speaker. You will have to make special spacers from plywood or chipboard.

Making podiums

  • The first thing to do is to make podiums.

DIY acoustic podium

  • Cut out a paper stencil to fit the diameter of the speaker. Don't forget to cut out the inner circle too.

Note. For 16 cm acoustics, you should get a ring with the same diameter and a 15 cm circle cut inside it.

  • We glue together 2 pieces of plywood, cut according to a stencil. We use PVA glue and self-tapping screws.
  • We should get rings 11 mm thick. This is quite enough for most speakers, although the thickness can be increased, if necessary, later by adding additional rings.
  • Now we need to install these same acoustic podiums in the door of the Lada Grant. Without removing the trim, we make markings by attaching a homemade ring to the door.
  • We remove the casing.
  • We take a drill and start drilling holes in the metal of the door.
  • We put up podiums and fasten them well.

Note. During this work, it is recommended to at the same time make high-quality sound insulation of the door. It will make the sound from the speakers much fuller, and music lovers will be satisfied.

  • We lay wiring in the door.
  • We put the trim back in place.
  • We install the decorative speaker grille. You can attach it in various ways.

How to install

Installation of the radio on the Grant should be done in the standard socket provided by the manufacturer. After this, the speakers and additional parts are installed. The presence of a factory communication harness ensures the fastest and easiest connection.

Car radio

If a standard-sized head unit is selected, the process of installing a radio in the Lada Granta consists of the following steps.

To remove the latches from the front frame, you need to hook the plug pocket by its edges. The electrical wiring plugs are carefully disconnected. The glove box housing needs to be folded down. The travel stops, mounted at the top of the rear wall, are disengaged from the instrument panel. The cover is dismantled - to do this, you need to carefully pull it towards you. To route the cable to the player, lift up the car's floor covering, which is located next to the passenger seat. The standard slides required for installing the head unit are installed using bendable elements.

Acoustics

After you have managed to install the radio in the standard connector, you need to install speakers. Lada Granta liftback cars with basic equipment are equipped with standard wiring for acoustics. It is laid under the decorative door trim.

The speakers should be placed in the doors. For this purpose, the metal frame of the doors on the Lada Granta already has holes with a diameter of 16 cm. However, there are no holes provided for this in the trim - the car owner will need to make them himself. In this case, the diameter of the hole in the casing must be equal to the size of the diffuser.

After installation, the speaker ring should be secured to the trim using screws. The top is covered with a decorative mesh.

Some difficulties may arise during installation. When the car owner decides to install speakers whose diameter does not exceed 13 cm, he will need to “build up” the missing plane. When choosing front speakers for the Lada granta liftback, experts advise giving preference to those models in which the metal grille and plastic frame have a minimal protrusion above the door surface. Otherwise, it may be difficult to open the glove compartment.

The car enthusiast can choose compact or enlarged rear speakers. In the latter case, they are built into the luggage compartment shelf. The diffusers in this arrangement are protected by original meshes - they are offered by the car plant.

Installing rear speakers in Lada Granta

Acoustic systems in Lada Granta

As a rule, without rear acoustics there can be no talk of any high-quality sound. Of course, the main thing is the front speakers, but the sound coming from the rear is an undeniable addition to the overall sound stage created in the cabin of any car. Speakers from Morel Tempo Coax are ideal for the rear doors of the Lada Granta. This is a two-way speaker with a power of 6 dB. Rear speakers in the car door:

  • We remove the door trim.
  • We try on the speakers for the doors.
  • To ensure that the speakers are firmly fixed and the sound quality is not lost, you need to cut off the protruding edges of the metal, and screw the cut pieces of plywood into this place. Material with a thickness of 10-15 mm is quite suitable for this.

Rear speakers in Lada Granta

  • We also install crossovers from the inside so that they are not visible and do not interfere with the trim.
  • We are modifying the rear door trim so that the peculiar pancakes for the speakers do not protrude. It is recommended to install aluminum mesh. They will need to be cut according to the pattern, and then secured to the rear doors using hot glue.

Note. If the color of the Lada Granta is light, then the metal of the door may be visible through the mesh cells. In this case, it will be enough to hide everything with a model or a piece of carpet.

  • The wires are usually already laid here. You just need to connect them to the speakers.

I have no voltage at all on rem. I connected everything as expected and nothing. The amplifier does not turn on. I threw + on the amp itself, some kind of squeal and that’s it. And the engine behaves as if the air conditioner was turned on

thanks for the diagram! verified to work!

I connected an amplifier to MMS 2190, everything worked for a couple of days, then the signal channel failed, blue wire, maybe you don’t know? KIX amplifier 600 watt. mms 2190 new

Unfortunately there is little information

Namely, isn't there a remote control in the original wire block? so as not to take 8.5 from the adapter and solder the scarf?

Not available in all trim levels. If you turn on reverse speed and the music is muffled, then there is already a wire in a1. If not. You need to pull it or take it from the cable

It is muffled, but there it works like the remote, when you turn on the ignition there is 12 V and it doesn’t matter whether the rear is on or not? And isn’t it activated for me if the music fades out at the back? I have an option that you can solder to the antenna

Professional rear acoustics in Lada Granta

Acoustic shelf in Lada Granta

If the owner of a Lada Granta is a true connoisseur of sound, then the above methods for installing an audio system will not be enough for him. Therefore, we will present another method that involves installing professional acoustics in this car. To begin, prepare the necessary materials and equipment:

  • Coaxial acoustics, preferably 6x9 from Pioneer. As for the rated power, 120 W will be enough.
  • An acoustic shelf that you can make yourself, or you can buy ready-made.
  • Kit for connecting a 4-channel amplifier, preferably from Supra.
  • One roll of Splen.

As an amplifier, it is advisable to choose, again from Pioneer, a 2-channel option. As for the 4-channel option, this will be superfluous. The 2-channel amplifier exactly matches the selected acoustics.

Note. The kit for connecting a 2-channel amplifier can be used as for a 4-channel amplifier. The wires in this case are of higher quality and better.

The actual installation process itself:

  • We dismantle the old shelf. We press out holes in the new one using hydraulics and cover it with two sheets of vibrating mat, and on top with a roll of Splen.
  • We make podiums for the shelf to match the size of the speakers.
  • We install everything in place.

This concludes the process of installing acoustics in the Lada Granta. The instructions will help you do everything correctly and will prevent you from making mistakes if you also use photo and video materials in the process. The price in this case will be very low if you do everything yourself.

Dismantling a standard music center

The general feelings of owners who have a standard radio in their car are positive. The display is informative and easy to read. The touch keyboard functions flawlessly. The standard radio itself is capable of high-quality reproduction of sound programs from micro-SD cards. However, using USB format media can be challenging.

The device also has some nice options:

  • equalizer;
  • activated replay mode;
  • random sequence of playing tracks (“Random”).

The standard speakers of the LADA Granta disappoint many, since even at a 45 percent volume level they emit wheezing, characteristic of bass overload. Some timid music lovers are alarmed by volume jumps when switching to “radio” mode.

Here is a list of shortcomings that provoked many Grantavods to purchase an alternative version of the radio. Today, the progressive version “2191” claims to replace the outdated standard device “2190”. The new device will please you:

  • improved sound;
  • interface for connecting with a rearview camera;
  • navigation complex;
  • integrated input for connecting a subwoofer.

Not every minimum configuration of a car today will please you with the presence of a standard radio. If, nevertheless, such a device is present in the database, it is far from a fact that it can please you with its informative interface and sound quality. If your version of the car has a push-button radio, then, as we found out from the article, installing a more modern radio, as well as the subsequent connection of the radio, is not a difficult matter, the main thing is to approach everything correctly.

The LADA Granta model also did not acquire the role of an exception in this list. After all, the trend of a modern car suggests the owner’s ability to carry out exciting measures to improve and tune his “iron horse,” and you shouldn’t be upset, because a push-button radio is easily replaced with a modern one.

Many motorists face the problem of removing the radio in their car. Some people cannot remove the standard device installed at the factory, others inherited the music along with the car, and others simply lost special keys. There are also plenty of reasons for dismantling - from repairing wiring to buying a new stereo system.

Often, standard head units (aka radios) are removed using the method described above, since they are attached to 2 or 4 clips. For example, the factory player on a Lada Priora car is held on by two latches, and to unlock them, thin steel strips must be inserted between pairs of radio channel switching buttons “2” - “3” and “5” - “6”.

To remove car radios that are fastened with screws, you need to prepare a simple set of tools:

  • thin flat screwdriver or knife;
  • Phillips screwdriver;
  • set of small sockets (from 6 to 10 mm).

With this mounting option, the factory turntable must be unscrewed using the heads

On different brands of cars, standard players can be mounted in different ways, but the principle is approximately the same: the device is screwed to brackets that are covered from the outside with a plastic lining. As an example, we propose to consider removing the radio on a Korean Hyundai Solaris car, performed in the following order:

  1. Use a flat-head screwdriver or knife to pry up the lower corner of the plastic decorative panel framing the stereo. Pull the edge and grab it with your hand.
  2. Gently pull it towards you and release the first latch, and then move around and unlock the rest.
  3. Holding the panel with both hands, remove it and, if necessary, disconnect the connectors located at the bottom.
  4. Unscrew the 4 mounting screws with a Phillips screwdriver and pull out the radio.
