    Base 6 speaker upgrade options?

    I felt like there wasn't as much bass without the ANC bypass. I finished installing the rear speakers yesterday, sounds great (for a system with no amp or sub). I'll have to try unplugging the ANC bypass and see if I hear a difference. I'm definitely wanting an amp now and probably a sub, but...

    Help with Sound System Please

    I always roll my eyes when I hear 'premium audio' which usually means a higher quantity of speakers and a crappy small sub, but not really much better sound. The one exception I can think of is my wife has a Ford Expedtion with a B&O premium audio system which actually sounds pretty good for...

    Help with Sound System Please

    Just keep in mind it's really not worth paying more for a truck just because of the audio system. I bought my '23 3 months ago and was looking at other '23's that many dealers had good prices on. I ended up having a choice between one that had the 9 speaker Alpine system and the one I bought...

    Looking for advice on buying a new 5th gen 1500

    First world problems lol... I bought my 2023 new about 3 months ago and did consider the Tundra. Main issue for me was the look of the front end. I was ok with the look of the rest. I literally spent some time looking at Tundra's near me by holding up my hand to block off the front end about...

    Window Button - Where to buy?

    Found an aftermarket one on Amazon for $16, but reviews are not the best. OE Number:56046832AB/56046832AC https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0C3D3JS22/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A21KP1HVRVAQRP&psc=1

    Window Button - Where to buy?

    I broke the back seat passenger side window button while installing speakers. Where's the best place to get a replacement?

    Base 6 speaker upgrade options?

    I bought the PAC ANC-CH01. Not really having issues, but figured I'd get it in case there are problems when I install the rear speakers. Looks like an easy plug in.

    Base 6 speaker upgrade options?

    I installed the 3.5" in the dash yesterday morning and did the front 6X9 this morning. Stopped because it was getting hot and my hands were cramping up a bit from prying the door panels off. Not too difficult, just tedious and a learning curve to get the door handle wire out and get the door...

    Base 6 speaker upgrade options?

    Looks like those would work well. Though oddly, Crutchfield says they won't fit. Not sure why, maybe because they're 4 ohm.

    Front USB wont charge intermittently

    Haven't heard of that issue. Sounds like an electrical problem and should be covered under warranty. I would take it to the dealer. If it's that easy to reproduce, hopefully easy to fix.

    Base 6 speaker upgrade options?

    I like the small size of that one, be able to fit it anywhere. Looks like the AI DSP would be good for someone like me that doesn't have any experience with tuning.

    6x9 to 8 inch

    Definitely up to you. I just figure if you're going to do subs, they should be in a box under the rear seat. Though with up to a 3.5" in the dash, you could do components all up front and maybe small 8" subs in the rear doors. Since the 6X9's are good for mid bass, I might do a single 10" or...

    Tire Pressue Gauge

    This is the gauge I've been using for 10+ years. I like the built in flashlight in case I'm using it at night. I use it on my Jeep and also like the air bleed valve to even out the tires. Bottom line: You should be able to get the same reading on two different gauges. Robot or human?

    Awesome, thanks for the info!

    Base 6 speaker upgrade options?

    Still not clear on how to check if the metra adapter is wired incorrectly. Is there a different company that makes them correct? I just figure if it's been configured incorrectly, at some point they might have fixed it. So don't want to reverse it and find out they already fixed it. I don't...

    Tire Pressue Gauge

    For inflators, the connector can make a difference too. I bought a power tank inflator with a clip on connector and it was not accurate. I called power tank and they said that clip on is usually not good and to replace it with a screw on end. That ended up being correct. So always switch to the...

    Base 6 speaker upgrade options?

    I think I understood that lol. So how do you install the resistor for the front and what do I buy for that? Also, for the front 3.5", it came with the Metra 72-7902 for the front (72-6514 for the two sets of 6X9). Link for the front adapter...
