Thank you so much for your video. It really was very helpful. I put the same sub in and it sounds great. Went with a little higher end speakers for the bar but overall great video. Thank you!
Awesome! Thanks for watching and glad the video helped you out a little!
Thanks brother! I’m here in California thinking by golly I might replicate this exact install! My TJ is an 05 with a totally shot-out factory system. My wife is the one complaining about NO TUNES! Not ME!
If it were up to me I’d only put in some sort of interface to only run my iPhone only. NO receiver as I hate commercials. I have bunches of downloaded tunes to listen too. Great job!
Awesome man! Glad the video inspired you!
As you see, it is easy and cost effective. Remember, happy wife….happy life! 😜

the details like how the connector comes off would complete the video for me im old now it would have made it easier but good overview!!
Thanks! The connectors for the speakers are just unplugged if that is what you’re referring to. If you mean the radio, I just pulled the crimp caps off and solder the wires with shrink tube around it.
Thanks for watching and hope it did help you a little.
Excellent video, thanks!
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching!
Cool. Helps a lot. Thanks!
Awesome! Glad it helped you out! Thanks for watching!
Great video. My 2002 TJ is due for an audio upgrade. With 35" mud terrain tires the road noise currently overrides the stereo. It has the stock 20 year old speakers so I think it is time.
I understand, top down or the soft top flapping made it impossible to hear the music. It is definitely much better with even this inexpensive upgrade!
@@FloridaManTV I have the Kicker deluxe kits sitting in my Quadratec cart as I type this. ;-)
Heck yeah! Enjoy! You’ll love it!
I wish the front speakers in my "93 YJ were that easy to replace LOL
My first Jeep was a YJ. I understand.
Thanks for watching the vid!
the KICKER stuff are very good for your money..
I agree
I want exactly all of what you purchased except the stereo...
How do i order it...i have a 2004 jeep wrangler x 2door also......
Just go to Crutchfield.com and enter your vehicle details at the top. The site will show you all the components that fit your vehicle. They add all the brackets and stuff automatically so it’s hard to mess up.
Nice video. Love your enthusiasm. What did you end up using for the head unit? Butt connectors?
Thank you! For the head unit, since Jeep body harness plug had an adapter harness with loose wire end, and the head unit harness has the same. Solder with shrink tube over it is the correct way to do it for maximum durability and water resistance. For me, it’s important on a Jeep as doors off in Florida salt air and pop up rain storms can shorten the lifespan of most electronics. 👍🏻
On the woofer speaker mounting...did you only need to drill new holes?
I didn’t even drill holes. Get a few screws that fit the hole and zip them in though the plastic. I used a power screwdriver you saw in the video. Screws go right through the plastic center console. 🤘🤘
Do you have the speaker information on the Crutchfield speakers you got? I want to order the same ones you did. Thanks.
I put in all Kicker KS series. So far, no issues with them. Loud enough to hear with the doors off etc. but, as a low end speaker don’t expect to shake the pavement ya know. Just better/louder sound over factory speakers.
If you put in your Jeep info into Crutchfield, they will show up in the search and when you click them, it’ll ask if you want the free install kit when you add to your cart.
Hope that helps.
i bought these speakers straight from the kicker website, do you know any way i can find the wire harnesses and the adapters by itself?
Just go to Crutchfield website, enter your vehicle, and select speakers you have. They will show the adapter plates and harnesses that go with it. I am sure you can buy independently, but, if not, call Crutchfield and give them the part numbers and I am sure they get can you what you need.
Had the same problem
Good to know we aren’t alone! 🤣
It looks like you had a little Seminole wind blow that door shut.
🤣 it was definitely just a small wind change. But was a little creepy because the door was open for 10 minutes before filming. Start the camera and the door slowly closed. I just summed it up to a playful ghost. 🤣
Aren’t those speakers 75W RMS??? Isn’t that over kill for not having an amp?
Don’t remember the rating but my Jeep has the sound package from factory with the factory amplifier. The head unit goes to the amp first then out to speakers. Works fine for me but not sure if other head units etc will behave differently.
The Root Mean Square of a speaker is only it's designed continuous power rating.
Most Stock stereos still push 30-40W per channel, meaning in most cases a speaker with a 75W RMS would be well below it's recommended threshold and if anything prolong the life of the speaker.
@@FloridaManTV Any instructions on how to replace the factory amp with an aftermarket amp? I have the same setup as your jeep and the factory amp is dying.
I would imagine that the replacement amp should have the same layout (output wires) as the factory. In theory, you could just use the factory amp location as a hub to connect all your wires and get whatever amp you desire. For example, let’s say you wanted to beef up the system, install a large amp under the seat, run the output wires to the center console and connect. Or, you could get a smaller amp that fits in the factory amp location. The choices are nearly endless on the design. Just make sure your matching the components and speakers for a balanced system. To learn about that, search TH-cam as I am not the best source for talking about wattage and amps. Others are pros in that area.
Thanks for watching the video and I hope that helps a little.
Kicker has a 5 channel Amp that is a good add
