You couldn't ask for a more comprehensive install video. Thanks so much for an awesome product and great video.
Thank you so much for your support! We’re here if you need anything.
Wild how complicated this is.
@@chinothedreamgiver1629 Not complicated, just time consuming.
Crazy how much stuff has to be taken off to replace the speakers. Wow! So much for a “jeep” easy to work on them. Thanks for the great video
Those knee speakers are certainly a chore to get to but definitely worth the upgrade. Especially when adding the 6.5” speaker and pod!
Great video!! From researching online I was under the impression that the knee speakers were a royal PITA, unlike the other speakers!! Looking forward to this upgrade!! I have a 23 Sport 2 door 6MT with the alpine floor sub. It does ok but as a bass player I like my shit bass loud and my trebles crisp and my kids clear. I like to blast my rock and reggae which have lots of bass and if I go over 30 on the volume I can hear some distortion on the sound bar speakers.
Looking forward to this comprehensive upgrade y'all!! Greetings from Sunny Florida.
Just did the disassembly today. Not bad at all. I figured I might as well since I woke up to a dead battery. Imagine that...A jeep JL with a dead battery 😆
Extremely helpful video
Thank you!
when are you guys going to do the factory sub replacement?
I have bought it now and am waiting for it to arrive and test it, but after a lot of research, I found that the best, most appropriate and safest solution to try to develop the speaker for your car, whether the alpine system or the regular one, is available at this store and the prices are very wonderful. I wish that international delivery would take place. Accept my greetings from Saudi Arabia
Thank you very much! Let us know if you need anything at all!
Greetings to you my friend from sunny Florida, US.
So what good will these do. No amp, you are just connecting good speakers to no watts. How would I add an amp to a plug and play gladiator?
@@johnpringle5842 Glad that you asked. We have a full plug and play amp, speaker, and sub bundle which demonstrate the installation using our Gladiator.

I have a stock 7" UConnect basic sound system. I've seen others install Inline output converter behind the head unit before connecting any upgraded speakers. Should that be the case here too?
No not at all. You will not need an inline converter to swap to these speakers. With some amps/ subs, you may, but not with just these speakers.
Also, a PAC preamp module behind the head unit is needed when installing an amp to a factory head unit but not speakers.
These are simply unplug your existing speakers and connect the new Pods and speakers which come completely wired and ready for install.
Wha is the part number for the 4" speaker adapter plate? Thank you for a great video.
The bracket comes with the 4” speaker but not as an individual bracket part.
Looks like good speakers, and although that is a good breakdown video, I've never took the dash apart, that's really not necessary, and the boxes will slide right out with minor manipulation. Also kicker could have made the tabs line up with the original screw holes, taking the chance on screwing tabs and possibly bending basket, as could happen with a new installer, will distort the speaker, and we know what comes next, premature speaker failure.
Yeah, I'm calling BS on you. There is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY to get the factory JL or JT knee boxes out with "minor manipulation ". Anyone who owns one knows that's a pure lie. If you post a video showing it, I'll pay you $100.00.
@@vtxrecruiter 100.00 ??? Seriously I've owned many jeeps, as now I own a 2023 Rubicon 392. And I've always installed my own systems, lifts etc, whatever it is. But if you live anywhere near NY I'd be glad to show you for 100.00 per side 👍👍. Like I said MINOR manipulation is all it takes, and to be sure the passenger side is the easiest. If you actually took the time to look at speaker boxes from underneath, I'm sure even a denier as yourself can see how to do it......Minor manipulation. Seriously not that serious, but hey if you want to take your whole dash apart 🤷🤷have at it. I've been doing these things along time, matter of fact it's all I do. Take a look and let me know if you see a way, Ive given you inside info. Your problem is your looking at videos of people whom mostly do not think outside of the box, which is fine, sometimes though all that's needed is to look at things from a different perspective and BAM 💥 your like, why didn't I think of that. So I'm calling b.s. on your b.s. because you haven't really LOOKED at it .
@williamh6547
So post a video as I ORIGINALLY MENTIONED. BTW I work teaching techs how to repair 7 Mil plus $$$ gas turbine engines, I DID look, and you DO have to essentially take the whole dash area apart. There is no way to access 2/3 of that knee box hardware. So post a video and put the link here. I'm sure the entire Jeep Community will thank you!!!!
@@vtxrecruiter I'm not a professional TH-camr 🤷🤷have no interest in being so. So there won't be any videos, I work to much.
My original post still stands, with minor manipulation you can take the speaker pods out, loosening a few things is a far cry from removing the entire dash.
@@williamh6547maybe just give me an update on it? You know did you drill screw holes out what? Would like to know. No video needed you can type so clearly just describe it for us every day guys researching kits
So why the coaxial speakers for these? Really just need tweeters on dash. Sell an option with these jist as midbass drivers?
If there is a configuration that better fits your build needs, please reach out to us directly and we’d love to provide a set that meets your needs. Plenty of configurations available. You can submit a contact form with your request and we can connect.

**under the glovebox is a 13mm NOT 14mm**
Should you polyfill any of these 6 kicker speakers?
It definitely doesn’t hurt.
Cool video but there are so many ways I’d screw up this install lol!
It’s easier than you think!
Damn that’s a ton of work just to replace two speakers.
Just a little! 😁
I get that… but what good are these ones without the amp?
@@johnpringle5842 They’re an upgrade over the factory speakers in clarity, quality, etc.
It's a shame that Jeep made it so difficult to replace the knee speakers. I've done my dashtop and overhead bar speakers but I won't bother with the knee speakers.
It is, however the new 6.5” knee pods are a game changer for the whole system. We highly recommend them for a complete set up with a huge improvement.
Are the brackets/rings necessary? Or can the speakers be mounted directly to the speakers boxes?
If you’re referring to the pods, yes they are required. The stock housing won’t allow for the larger speakers.
@Trail Seven can I just buy the rings/Brackets? I already have speakers and connections/adapters. I'm looking on your website
@@fernandoamador4745 Please submit a contact form with your request and we can accommodate your build. trailseven.com/pages/contact
@@trailseven done
@@fernandoamador4745 You’re needing the rings for the knee panel speakers? Those are provided with the Kicker speakers and not sold separately.
Good lord that’s a lot of stuff to remove to get to two speakers!
It’s a good amount for sure. It’s not difficult, it’s just time consuming.
@@trailseven it’s one of those jobs I have to get in the mind set of doing it. Will be ordering the kit for my birthday , lol
@@edwardbrockbank7974 HAHAHA! Just plan some uninterrupted time and you’ll make it through!
I’m gonna order the 4 speaker kit. That’s a big NO thank you
Hahaha, the knee speakers can be a bit intimidating at first but they’re easier than it looks. It’s just a lot of screws to keep track of. You can always add them later also!
