Hey bud, do you have a pic of the finished project with the woofer? dis you re-use the plastic cover, or left that open? and how is the sound? is it enough for the JT? Thanks in advanceI disconnected the factory subwoofer and turned the radio on. The radio worked fine so we plugged the subwoofer back in and it started working. I don't feel removing the factory sub will affect anything so i removed it. Got the Kicker HS10 mounted with some left over brackets i had laying around in the shop. Now i'm just deciding where i want to run the power wire. I'm probably going to remove the passenger seat and interior panels and run it along the passenger side where i can exit underneath the floor mat with the wires from my electric steps.
Everything i did fits behind the original cover. If i took a picture now behind the rear seat it would look completely stock.Hey bud, do you have a pic of the finished project with the woofer? dis you re-use the plastic cover, or left that open? and how is the sound? is it enough for the JT?

Thanks a lot, I went all alpine for speakers and amp, but I am absolutely trying to not sacrifice the little storage we have under the rear seat... the money spending comes with owning one of these monsters lol.

Yes the bass is much better now. It makes a big difference from stock.
If you're just looking to get more sound / more bass from the subwoofer then this is the way to go.
Now i've gotten bored since i did this install and i just love wasting money smh so i've recently purchased all new Alpine speakers for the whole truck and a dual 10 inch speaker box for under the rear seat. I also have the Insane Audio head unit. Aside from the head unit i'm keeping everything Alpine even the new amps are Alpine. I haven't had a chance to install any of it yet but in the near future i'll do the install and take pics and make a whole new thread.
yes it will as long as you remove the factory sub and just use the HS10Thanks a lot, I went all alpine for speakers and amp, but I am absolutely trying to not sacrifice the little storage we have under the rear seat... the money spending comes with owning one of these monsters lol.

Thanks a lot Bud, great post, it helped a ton.yes it will as long as you remove the factory sub and just use the HS10
You'll need the optional harness if you want to use the OEM wiring for the speakers. You'll still need to run speaker wires from the amp to that optional harness.Ok so I am a bit confused here.
I can buy one of the Ap4-CH41 https://catalog.pac-audio.com/catalog/amppro-amplifier-interfaces/ap4-ch41-r2 to keep all factory chimes, etc and of course add a subwoofer and be able to amp all stock speaker locations.
They mention an optional harness (APH-CH01) https://catalog.pac-audio.com/catalog/amplifier-integration-harness/aph-ch01. Are both needed?
I am trying to determine the easiest way so I dont have to run all new wires to the speakers, and use the factory wiring

The oem harness to the PAC harness and used the RCA wires from the PAC device to the AMP. At the amp, I connected my speaker wires from the soundbar.Why didnt you use the harness? Did you not need to get aftermarket amps to the front speakers? (since you did the new soundbar/using sounder speakers only)?
I'm 100% with you on this...I have the premium audio, but I legit want to replace and amp all speakers and and add a larger amped sub. Just does not get loud enough with the top down and I just love deeper fuller bass..no matter the music.
