2018 Roadster I would like to install 2 rear speakers. The questions I have are, are there existing cut outs under the carpet at the wheel well area? If so how do I locate them? If not where would rear speakers normally be installed, say 5” diameter Any suggestions? As usual thanks for the help!

Rear Speakers would normally be on the front face of the wooden board between the fuel tank area and the luggage space, using elliptical speakers..

They better be obnoxiously loud speakers and don't carry anything on the back shelf or you've wasted your money.

On the ARp4, the factory placed an speaker on the lower vertical wooden panel , on the back of the seat , in front of the rear axle.On the site of the axle it sits in an alu box.

All I can add is that the wiring in the rear loom appears to be in place for them and tucked away as shown below top right.  BTW double check the loom is fixed higher than in my build picture, as I later found the protruding end of the top link bolt was chaffing the loom  Have since fitted shorter bolts. Colour codes are L/H rear pair black/green & black, R/H rear pair black/blue & black. Would be interested to hear when and if you fit them. So far just upgraded my front ones to these.
