Yes you can, just drill two new holes tap them and if you have any leftover carpet just stick it in the old hole..

Where did you get the grommet for the dimmer switch? I'm glad you said something about moving the switch. I need to check to see how mine is with the speaker in the way now.

The grommet came in the box with my carpet, just had to make the hole and slip it in place.

My switch is a little hard to get to, I have to turn my foot and hit it with the tip of my shoe, but I don't use the high beams much and it's usually never a problem to not be able to switch them on in a major hurry.

If I knew I could've moved it easily, I would probably have done it, but I'm not repulling the carpet or cutting a new hole and trying to patch the other hole now that it's a done deal. Maybe in 5-10 years If I replace the carpet again I will do it then and add some sound deadener too!

Re: Installed New Carpet and New Kick Panel Speakers Today

LOOKS AWESOME. How did you fasten the kick panel speakers to the truck? Self tapping Screws? Velcro? please let me know what you guys have done.
I'm getting ready to put mine in too.
