87 BOSE UQ4 option UPDATED

My car has the UQ4 bose 4 speaker option per the RPO codes.

The rear deck has a panel that has 2 speakers and each one has a small amplifier/crossover. Both of mine are bad. Does anyone have a set that I could buy? Thanks in advance.

interesting, mine has no amp by the speakers its the the dash. and the subs wore out on mine about 15 yrs ago as im guessing most do so i got rid of the whole deal. a set of decent aftermarket 6x9's sound way better and are cheaper. and no one can tell the difference with the sail cover on.

On mine each speaker has its own amp. I think the radio only puts out a line signal. Based on the testing that i did today. So replacing them would require me installing more equipment. Plus I really like the factory look.
