    This is my first 2000 Prius.
    Speakers would be nice as they don't work. I want to install them myself/front door speakers.
    Could someone please help with instructions ? pictures of the how 2 & what not 2 do. Thank you. Gina

    Installing speakers is the same in any car. It might be harder in your car because the 2000 model didn't exist outside of japan (maybe europe?).

    What car do you have? a NHW10? that would be a "2000". Toyota Prius - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    You should look around in this forum Gen II Prius Audio and Electronics | PriusChat
    This is for a 2010, but same concept.. Door Panel Removal, Front Door Speaker Removal With Pictures | PriusChat

    Pop off door panel, put in new speaker. Are the speakers broken or the radio? You will be able to hear sound from at least a few of the speakers, even if they sound poor.

    Here is the best guide: (from archive.org)
