    Front door speaker mounting screw size?

    Anyone know what size screw is used to mount the 6x9s in the front doors? I’ve taken those things on and off more times than I can count, but never really paid attention... Now I’m going to add some spacers, so need to get longer screws, but would prefer to get the right hardware before taking...

    Best Console Safe Option?

    I recently ordered/installed this one, with the 3 digit combination lock. Perfect fit, and easy installation. I wanted the electronic keypad, and may try swapping out the lock some day, but it’s good for now. 2022_p_176.html#.Yz_42C0pAgoConsole Safe for Dodge Ram | In-Vehicle Safe |...

    Rear surround speakers detached from headliner

    if you guys have DSP, with a channel or two available that you can dedicate to rear fill, its worthwhile. I deleted the center speaker, and the rear doors, but use wideband Speakers In the headliner for rear fill. I have them set up like the below -basically just creates ambient noise...

    Rear surround speakers detached from headliner

    I swapped out the rear surround / headliner speakers yesterday, but when trying to put grilles back on, the back half of the speaker assembly detached from the headliner (inside). So, when I’m pushing the grille back on, the back two clips just push the whole assembly up, instead of clicking...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Tuesday: Replaced the CDT Unity 8.0 Widebands in the dash with Excelsus XXM 325s, and re-tuned. So far, so good, not a major difference (since I had the Unity's dialed in) - but they do sound really good Wed: Took my kids to Halloween Horror Nights @ Universal Studios in Orlando. Thurs...

    5th Gen Stock Stereo Upgrade Options?

    The CDT‘s are good, especially for the price. I can’t speak for the HK 3.5”, but ive seen a lot of people upgrade to the the Infinity as the “first speaker swap”. That was the first change I made. Again, for the price, it’s a good change. better than the stock speakers, but I don’t know if...

    2020 Big Horn - Not mean looking... help

    There’s another thread (or multiples) about the air dam removal. When I took mine off, I taped the electric plug off really well, then zip tied it up as high as I could. So far, so good - and I’ve had it off for quite a while. (Of course, going to dealership this morning for oil change...

    Alpharex Luxx

    Right.. sorry, wasn’t clear. I meant F38 or F60, definitely not F66! (But didn’t consider the dim possibility) Regardless, went with F60 based on your prior advice/writeup, thanks! Works great, only hang up is that I think I overadjusted, and have them set too low. Only available area to...

    Alpharex Luxx

    Getting ready to install Novas in my truck today, so have been looking everywhere to confirm which fuse i should tap. The AlphaRex website still says F66, but their video says F38, which is the DTCM/Active Cooling Temp Valve. I dont know that the F38 would be any...

    Best Console Safe Option?

    Anyone bought the lock’er down with the combination lock and replaced it themselves with an aftermarket electronic keypad? I saw somewhere you can do that for a fraction of the cost of the $150 upcharge the keypad costs. But, I cant find any instructions on how to do it, so no idea if it’s...

    Anyone with Kenwood 600dsp with 2nd amp?

    im assuming you are using it with the Maestro and harnesses? I had this set up, and had the exact same issue at first. The blue/white wire coming Out of the speaker harness labeled “remote out” doesn’t do anything/have voltage, you need to strip open the main cable (18-pin connector)...

    Laramie base Alpine Sound System

    Sorry, no pics. The molex plug had wires running through the top and bottom section, the middle was literally just an open hole through to the inside, just had to run the wire through, then find it

    Alternative to Rockford Fosgate DSR1?

    This is what I’m really starting to run into now. I made the change (below) and already notice a huge difference in the quality between the music I have on some usb drives vs Spotify and Xm. So will be trying Amazon unlimited and the high quality tidal to see if that’s better. After a few...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Swapped out my 6-channel Kenwood amp/dsp over the weekend for a Helix V Eight, and put Audiofrog GB10s in the sail panels. Even with just a rough tune completed, loving it so far. i jacked up the sails a little bit, and had to cut the holes twice to flush mount the tweets. But no biggie, I’m...

    Laramie base Alpine Sound System

    Unless the Laramie is different for some reason, the Alpine system is not pre-wired for tweeters in the doors. The harness in the door only has a single wire to the mid-bass speakers in the lower doors. However, the molex plug in the doors (at least in my ‘21 Bighorn) already has an opening in...
