Seth is a pretty good trail rider, carpenter, electrician, mechanic, audio technician, web developer, project manager, host, hotel manager, welder and youtuber as far as I can tell.
This is some of the sassiest Seth we’ve seen! “I won’t put this on eBay at all.” “That’s why we don’t let customers into the install bays.” Lmao. This was great!
Yo Homie! Thank you so much for the help this weekend in decking out Dora. I never would have thought I'd get so stoked about headlights, batteries and dash unit, but here we are...
Bro, upgrading your favorite toys is always fun! Just installing rock sliders on my truck was one of the best weekends I'd ever had! MOAR DORA UPGRADES!
Boy oh boy Seth is a GOOD friend to have! All that stuff he did would have cost a small fortune and it would have been half ass. Seth is a smart guy, his orderliness is such an asset for these kind of projects!
It’s so weird to me that I’m just finding your TH-cam channel! I remember being a young teenager watching the howcast videos learning how to tinker with car stereos. Today I found it based from a howcast video I found from searching up an alpine amplifier I bought for my car. I watched it for the nostalgia, and this happened to be in the recommended! Thank you so much for the knowledge you gave though those videos! It’s over a decade later and I’m still tinkering like a kid, just hopefully doing a better job of it! Definitely going to sub now!
This was such a cool video. As a car audio tech 23 years ago, I can totally relate. Installing car audio stuff once in a while for personal projects brings back memories of a life left behind long ago. But the skill is very much still with us.
I typed in "Howca" on the TH-cam search bar and immediately saw that almost every suggestion was in the lines of "Howcast car stereo Seth". Lol how many people looked it up
I just tried it and with only an H in the search bar one of the suggestions was "Howcast Car Stereo" and with an O added it comes up with "Howcast Seth."
Something different but I like it. Small heads up though. In some jurisdictions, installing LED bulbs into a Halogen only housing can net a sizable fine from Jonny Law.
Seth: the stock car stereos are actually worth a lot! Alexander: why are we replacing it? Seth: Because the other one is better. Seth: I’m totally not going to sell it on eBay... 😆😆😆
“Dodge Ram Promaster 2017” “It’s 18. It’s definitely an 18.” “What are you talking about? That the car is an 18?” “Yeah!” “ *_NAH._* “ Lol why is that so funny
The 10 character in the VIN would actually be the correct year for parts and application. For example the car may be made the 8th month of 2017 but would in fact be a 2018 vehicle for all important parts and application information. The only time the exact date of manufacture would matter is if there was a split vehicle production for that full year and things were different between an exact set of dates.
@@redbaron354 It's actually the same as bike models. A 2018 model is being manufactured since 2017 and is often actually sold since 2017, but it's an 2018 model because it was made for the season of 2018. It's not a scam or anything, it's just that the date model year is not the same thing as manufacture year.
@@CanIHasThisName yep. I had a Mustang that was considered a "late 98." It was a 1998 made in the second half of the year so it features some parts from the 1999 cars since those had begun production and the vehicle was about to change. The VIN is most accurate.
No hacks were used in the making of this video. Any smart individual would not consider taking aftermarket electronics installation advice from a TH-cam channel with the word "hacks" in the name. Hack suggestions are not professional and people should not take advice or suggestions from non-professionals when it comes to automotive aftermarket electronics installation. He knows that. The other channel is not called Berm Peak Express Hacks.
This was great. You gotta know as a subscriber I do not mountain bike at all. I enjoy watching you build and watching you bike, but ultimately I enjoy spending time "hanging out" with you, probably doesn't matter what you're doing.
Man... I was an installer for 10+ years then a mechanic for 7. That was bringing up so many old memories!! Now I know why you've always struck a chord with me. Well done, sir!
I used to love these videos when I use to bike and BMX a lot i started skating and stopped watching/riding bikes but I have never stopped watching your vids keep it up.
I do love the videos were they work on Alex’s van, because I know I’m not going to live in a van even though I’d love to but, I like seeing the before and after images!
Last week I came across an 8 year old video of you that helped me figure out why I have no sound in my car. Couple days later you post a video about it! Very shocked!!
I worked at bike shop next to a car audio shop and ran double shifts at both. Two very expensive hobbies to have in my early 20's. Great video. Cheers.
It's all about his editing style. He's said before that when he films and edits he is constantly looking for the story he's going to tell. The reason we all find him doing chores and installing car electronics compelling is because he makes a story out of it. Take this for example. There's the beginning about building Alexander's van in the first place, the middle about the problems he's been having, introduce Seth's background in car electronics, the problem with compatibility, and then a solution and climax with the stereo install is 100% functional. It's simple, but really engaging. Seth's the master at finding a good story to tell in seemingly mundane footage and tasks. It also helps he's got a on camera presence. Alexander is also really good at this as well.
You are a super savvy person. You seem to be very grounded, humble and one great friend! Your friends are super lucky to have you in their lives. Take care and thanks for sharing.
This is awesome to see. I also got my life started working at a car stereo shop. Back when double din radios were huge and subwoofers were all the craze. Lots of dual battery set ups. Sound deadening. Etc. funny to see how people who like to tinker always tinker.
I've been slowly upgrading my car audio system for 5 years, I've ended up coming across EXO, jacobviral, lifeofprice etc and now have become a basshead. There is a whole nother world to car audio other than pioneer speakers. There is the sound quality scene with 3 way speakers from boutique brands like focal, JL and much more, then there is the SPL market people going for max output, using Skar audio, B2 audio, sundown, deafbonce and more. Here in Australia no one imports most of these brands, in America access to this stuff is easy and if I lived in US I would have a insane system :)
Less building more this stuff. There is more to bikes than building trails. Traveling around and riding trails is a huge part of cycling. Love it, great vid. Miss your pup man, super bummed for you. Lotsa love!
Technically they all come from Mercedes-Benz. All of these are born of the Diamler-Chrylser era when Sprinters in the US were branded as Dodge. Of course the ProMaster is a bit different than that of the Sprinter, but call it a close family member.
@@TheEricHarding It isn't related to the Sprinter at all, other than it being a European van. Here in the states, Fiat doesn't have a great reputation and Dodge/Ram didn't have a van since their deal with Mercedes-Benz was over. Instead of spending a lot of money on R/D of a new van, they rebadged a Fiat when Dodge/Ram was purchased by Fiat.
@@harkin3684 The more you know... They look exactly like a knock off Sprinter so I assumed FCA Mexico ripped it off because they were producing Sprinters. Too bad they aren't. Now knowing they are born of Fiat I'd never buy one.
From an ex-MECP installer (haven't installed in 10 years now besides my own projects) I'm so cool to find out my favorite MTB TH-camr speaks in 12 volts. Also , I knew I couldn't have been the only guy with a plastic tub full of random wires! I only get in there once a year but when I do there's a 50% chance I find the wire I need.
Dude, Seth, excellent choice of tools using the power probe, Best tool ever made for techs because its the only real way to visualize electrical signals and to immediately test their integrity on the spot.
I only just recently started watching you as I've just now started to get into mountain biking. But I've been into car audio for about 5-6 years and audio itself even longer. Crazy thing is I briefly remember seeing younger you on Howcast, given I was just a young kid watching TH-cam videos about speakers because I thought it was cool. Now here I am watching possibly the same guy talk about MTB. Small world.
I will never make fun of your east coast accent again after watching the Howcast videos. Yes, you still say Wadder instead of water, but wow how far you have come. 👏
Lol, "This is why we don't let customers inside the install bay"
That was priceless.

(that you worked with stereos)
I think that he did this before he did the web development
B0bb217 I think he did but never told us
He did mention before he learned the 3M adhesive heat hack from when he still worked on cars for a living
Thomas John Solidum
You’re right he did say that
No one:
Not a soul:
Seth's background music: “CuRioUs gEOrGeE”
Legitimately just got that same head unit installed in my 1990 mr2, can say it does a good job of bringing any car up to date haha
I only just recently started watching you as I've just now started to get into mountain biking. But I've been into car audio for about 5-6 years and audio itself even longer. Crazy thing is I briefly remember seeing younger you on Howcast, given I was just a young kid watching TH-cam videos about speakers because I thought it was cool. Now here I am watching possibly the same guy talk about MTB. Small world.

This is low key berm peak express content.
Seth is now a professional stereo collector.
Your channel is magic Seth. You inspire me in so many ways.
I will never make fun of your east coast accent again after watching the Howcast videos. Yes, you still say Wadder instead of water, but wow how far you have come. 👏
