New owner today! 4quick questions

I bought a 2006 touring model back in April. My two back speakers do not
work either. I believe the two back speakers are for the Bose stereo, which
I do not have. Supposedly, the wiring is there, but no speakers.

Found in the manual where to replace the battery. Great.

So I understand the touring is 6 speakers. We count them, counted 6 up
front. DAMN. Hopefully the wiring is present, I'll see if my wonderful
hunk of a husband can get the speaker cover off and add some decent rear
speakers.

We are having them look at this. I popped up, we liked that. Now it
doesn't, we don't like that.

Thanks for all the responses.

INRE; item 3... Those arent trunk lights, those are license plate lights!
Put your headlights on to prove it. The trunk light is inside on the wall,
has a switch, may be off.
