It actually sounds like it hits pretty good. I got a 19 Silverado crew cab. except I’m going to be running 4 8s dc audio subs with a 4K amp. Gonna run 0 Ga all around. Sound deaden the back doors to keep rattles away. Have an XS POWER D3400 Battery on the way along with an upgraded alternator to handle to the voltage. And seeing this video has me super stoked for the finish install. Great video!

Man, did this bring back some memories. I remember not wanting to cut the boot because water could get in to the interior so we were lazy and just ran the power wire through the door jam and then under the interior trim pieces. LOL!!! Oh to be young and stupid again. Cool vid!

The walkthrough is super clear. Great job. Thank you :)

Hell yeah just what I needed straight to the point 🙏

I’m going to try to do all this thanks for how you explain all this simple an easy thank you

Man I felt like i doing this with you thank you so much

Went from thinking I could do this to knowing I can’t do this. Thanks for saving me the headache lol .

You don't have to get your accessory power from the fuse box. It's much easier to get it from the body control module which is the black box you mentioned having to take the cover off of. The female connectors that are sold everywhere will fit the auxiliary tabs on the BCM and you can just plug your accessory wire on one of the ignition tabs that aren't being used just make sure you add a fuse.

Would it be the same for a 2015 chevy silverado? Looking to install a system have done it to older cars but this would be my first silverado dont look much diffrent or difficult to do but it has to be the same right as this one?

Everyone does things differently (i get it) but i’ve always used some sort of pin/needle to poke a hole in the rubber boot. Keeps the boot from tearing like it does when you cut a slit in it. Overall I like this, plan to do it to my ‘17 Silverado

I used a old oil dipstick to fish the power wire through the firewall, worked pretty good! Can confirm

Great video,big help for me.gonna attempt this job on my 15 chevy 2500.

This is almost exactly how I'm doing my install but I can't seem to find which wires are for the speaker for a 2014 HD3500. Any idea?

I am confused on the remote turn on wire tap location to the truck. Did you disconnect it from the 10Amb #2 fuse slot location on the drivers side dash? If so, where did you relocate it?

do you have a video like this for installing door speakers with an amp to factory head unit? I have a 2018 custom Silverado crew cab without bose with 7" lcd touch. id like too keep the factory stereo look but have the aftermarket stereo sound. thank you for your help and awesome detailed video for the subs

Thats how the audio shop did my install my amp wouldn't stay in place I moved it to the hidden front seat console and here soon will be doing a 3" rear seat lift and making a box to fit behind the seat it will be tight but will be much nicer having under seat space again. Very clean install there though

I have a 2019 Trail Boss. I'm looking for the remote wire to hook up my under seat amp/woofer. All I'm lacking is the remote wire. Can you help?

what did you end up doing with the with the blue wire from the outline converter?

It’s feb 2022 and I just got my hands on a 2015 I’m going to be doing an install but instead of doing a under seat box I’ll make a box that has 2 10” skar. I’m planning on compromising one seat either middle or driver side passenger to have a box that starts at the bottom and then partially sits on the seat. The amp will be under the seat for easier tuning adjustments. I do have a question though. Was the stereo aftermarket on your project ? What exactly do I need to get the signal into the amp ? I’m guessing oem stereo doesn’t come with rcas lol. Any advice would help man. Great video all in all ! Very informative 💯👌🏼

Thanks for the video guys! That was really helpful for me to setup my new bass in my Silverado…regards…

People have said connecting to the back speakers makes it sound bad. Instead connecting it to the factory sub wires made a huge difference in sound quality.

Do factory stereos still not have rca jacks on them? I haven’t ran an amp in my truck in 15 years and I remember having to use a line converter then in a factory stereo set up. Hard to believe they still don’t give you the ability to hook an amp up in this day and age.

Good video but for anyone that has these newer models. DONT be lazy and tap into the rear speakers. You won't get the full frequency signal. Tap in behind the head unit or buy a T harness. You can see for your self when you fade your music to the rear of the cab. Gets reall quiet.

Does your truck rattle under the truck under the back seats? My 2016 rattles like crazy everytime the bass hits and it’s frustrating cause idk what it’s coming from

I plan on doing the exact same thing but I need to by pass the factory amplifier, that way I don't get door chime or seatbelt chime noise coming though the subs.

Is the signal wires your using to go from middle harness to the converter speaker wire?

Mannnn this video really helped! Thank you!

what if I dont want to use the stock speaker wires and swap em out for 12 gauge wires, will I still need to tap in from the stock speaker wires?

This helped a lot for my 2016 silverado! Thank you

Those taps make it some much easier

Is it a bad idea to put it on a lowered 2014 Silverado that already takes power out of the battery? My question is will it take too much power of the battery to make it not work

Does anyone know what size nut you put over the bolt where the ground wire is?

Just used this as guide and installed my subs in less that 4 hrs thanks alot

I got 2016 silverado and got the bose system. I wanna do the same as in video but do you think it will soubd good keeping factory door speakers

So where did you run the remote wire. I saw in video but later you said you removed it. So I'm confused.

So everytime i want to make adjustments to my amp i have to remove the back seat? Doesn’t seem like a very convenient location. Also amps make alot of heat and need ventilation im sure its not getting that in that tight space behind the seat. Other than that i love how you ran and spliced the wires

Ok so on the rca converter the blue wire taths a remote wire you can get signal from there, for ur amplifier to turn off and on, so u don’t have to hook up from the fuse box, Taths a cool feature, also the power wire and the ground wire from the converter you can connectem to the amplifier (ground) and (power) get ‘em from there and you all set, good video it was helpful, salu2 from tx

Hay thanks there is a lot of videos out there about this subject , but they all make it look so damn difficult! You really did a nice job . Thanks from texas

Would anybody happen to know if the door wire colors are the same in a 2017 regular cab Chevy

What kind of wire did you use to connect to the rear speaker signal wires?

So Pro work .. God bless you .. we just need the connecters names and links to find it .. also the fuse adapter and all. thank you

Really good Video looking forward to install in my GMC sierra 👍🏼

I'm just trying to figure this out for my first amp install, having installed many radios in the past but never an amp. This looks a bit more complicated than I had anticipated. I am assuming you are connecting this to the factory stereo and therefore didn't have RCA outputs and thus needed to use the converter box and tap the speaker wires?? I'm using an aftermarket stereo that has all type of outputs on it for the amp. I was also planning to use the power antenna lead from the radio as a trigger switch for the amp. I haven't checked yet if it provides constant power or not but I think it does. I'm not interested in having my amp powered whenever the truck ignition is on, I just want it powered when the RADIO is on. I'm interested to check some other videos and see if this fused trigger wire is normal. I was not planning to fuse it. I can understand fusing the high power input. would have been nice to see the stereo that is feeding the system just for information. Also curious if you had to remove any seatbelt anchors and if so did you have any problem. In my '99 the rear seatbelts have a plastic cover mounted to the floor pan and I can't figure out how you'd ever remove it without just ripping it off and piecing it back together later. I see no attachment points accessible from the outside but it does appear to use a type of plastic 1-way pop in rivet with the holding strength of Hercules..

Im installing subs on my 15 silverado but im running into a problem. both my leads from the side pannels that I had to tap into to get speakers signal, have current but then once i plug in to line-out converter and out to the amp it still not getting subs to turn on or amp. amp has buttons that light up green when its on and nothing. And remote wast tapped into like how u did it, ground was grounded like yours aswell, and the power wire also has current on the amp when i test it. I need help😂

How did you make it work without pulling out the screen and the radio unit

where did you get that box? or did you make it? also, I have two 12" kicker cvx. will the magnets be too big for any box for my 2018 silverado?

Good job buddy very well explained!!

Wonder ideas for a wooden backboard behind the seat? Just remove the liner out of the way.

Will this be the same way for a 2020 Sierra?

What type of fuse tap did you use I can’t find non that fit the fuses on the truck

Do you have a Bose sounds system or how do you ad an aftermarket sub and amp with a Bose sound system

Where can I get a sub box like that for mine? For a decent price. I got dual 12s. Tired of having that big box in the way. I just haven't found a box for an affordable price

I need help with the same truck. I blew the entire system* I wasn't paying attention and I hooked up the sub wires to the door input signal and POW! The screen still works only has 0 sound (No Soumd from anything) so I bought a new factory radio have Chevy install/program it and still no sound. Any ideas? Chevy has non thank you. Oh and do not be distracted while installing AMPS

Thanks bro. You saved me $200.

Did you not use the RAP fuse for the remote wire or left that in there?

After my install my 2014 gmc 1500 the alternator spikes and puts amp in protection mode? Anyone have this problem?

I got a question what color is the ground wire benhind the radio??

Can someone break down the wiring for the line out converter? Also the remote wire goes into the converter and the amp?

Great video and info. Thanks champ!

So does the amp also connect to the speakers on the dash

the only time I remove everything when I installed my AR safe. for speakers hell no. Great Video

What wiring kit was used? And can I find it online?

Thank you so so much. This video really helped me! Only place I could find the correct colors for my right column signal or right rear speaker wire. I subscribed just because if this lol! You rock

You pulled the signal wires from your back speakers. If I’m putting in two channel sub amp, along with four channel speaker amp, would I use the same signal wires for the subwoofers and back speakers?

I’m having the same problem with my amp staying on I ran all my wires and have a simple speaker wire to rca. Not a line output converter, and have stock gm head unit. After I shut my truck of the amp stays on until rca’s are unplugged. It’s a 09 ext can Silverado. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I installed my system on a 2018 Silverado and I wired it exactly how you did yours and I can feel the music playing through the subs but they don’t hit even with that amp turned all the way up and I adjusted the line out converter and still didn’t change anything

I want to get new speakers and want to hook them to a amp. How would you do that?

Where did you get the box and everything to hook it up????

What’s the name of the JL audio 12 that shallow enough to fit in that box

Does anyone have any advice on how to wire this through the stock radio ? Or a video to help ?

Thank you know I can blast music on my way to school 😂

On the output converter where did you connect the positive and negative wire to? My installer connected them to the power terminals on the amp itself? Is that correct?

Doing a single 12 install for my 2020 silverado 2500 on tuesday

Did this install method also amplify the door chimes? Seems that using a LOC often also makes the door chimes extremely loud as well

Did you keep the stock radio or swapped in different video?

Nice install. You will get better performance out of your subs if you switch your LOC for a Audio Control LC2i. It will keep the bass from rolling off at higher volumes.

Best video for this model truck sub/amp install.

which add a fuse did you use? I have bought two different ones and they both dont fit the micro fuse slots

Thanks for the video it helped alot.. One question where did you end up getting your remote signal from afterall if it wasn't from the #2 fuse?

Thanks for all the info

Where did you guys get the subwoofer box??

The pins you splice into for both driver and passenger side . Is the pin # the same for a 2015 Chevy silverado .. or how do you check which pin to splice?

is the amp going to have enough air flow behind the seat so it dont over heat?

How do you plug in the power wire

I wish you would of said which subwoofer it is …… they make a few shallow mount subs

Would this be the same for a 2500 duramax?

Where can I find the audio track that was used while you sped up the install

Wired everything the way you did and my subs barely move and produce very little sound. I'm not sure if its because my truck came with the Bose system. Or if it's my loc(I used a cheap loc). I have yet to get a ohm meter to test for good power and ground. If anyone has had this problem, send help😂

Do I still have to tap into the left and right wire sets if I’m only installing one sub? Could I just go to behind the head unit?

Are taps only for interior???

Hey bro can you let me know which amp wiring kit you bought on Amazon? Awesome video very helpful!

Why would u not just use a interface plug adapter at the back of the radio. No splicing. Just plug and play

Any chance you can drop the list for the things you needed to buy? I’m looking to do this as well. Everything but the subs and amp themselves would be perfect, thanks in advance

What was the total install time?

I actually just tried to do this same install I have power amp turns on but no sound is coming out of subs did exactly everything you did like for like what am I missing

Is that a prefab box? If so, what kind?

Does the amp actually fit back there without having to force the seat back in position?

Are the wire colors in the door plugs the same with the bose systems if im still using the line out converter

great job

Good job bro, did you hook the bass knob up or did you leave it off
