Y'all really had me at "plug and play" more like "rip the entire car apart and guarantee none of the seals fit and you're plagued with rattles for the duration of your ownership...and play" good god man what a BRUTAL install
That's a lot of work for a sound upgrade! I have the Alpine premium audio system already. It sounds great!! Good video with lots of dash removal info!!
I installed this upgrade on my JL a couple months back and its sounds fantastic. Only issue was with the Alpine recommended gain settings, the system is wayyy overdriven with those settings. Before you put the bolts and the seat back, I recommend dropping the gains back some, and tuning by ear, if you’re fancy a multimeter comes in really handy. you’ll find yourself having to take the seat back off to adjust if you don’t.
@@itsmeyaboy...6322 Not yet its been cold in South Texas. It thumps with the volume level at 20, on average streets you should hear it loud and clear, curious about the highway test.
I already have the premium factory system, but I was very happy to see the steps I need to take to jam polyfill into every empty plastic cavity I can find to get rid of those damn plastic rattles... >:(
You guys should see if you can get Alpine to create a kit that lets you add the amp and sub along with the harnesses as an option too. I replaced all my speakers with mb quarts speakers that are specifically built for the jl but don’t have an amp and a sub. It would save a ton of wiring and be plug and play.
They already have! The PSS-23WRA is exactly what you're looking for. It includes the 8" compact powered subwoofer, 4 channel amplifier, along with mounting bracket and plug-and-play wiring harness! You'll also get a pair of tweeters, but if you're already replaced yours, you can always give them to a friend! www.quadratec.com/p/alpine/full-sound-system-upgrade-wrangler-jl-gladiator-jt-pss-23wra?
If I have the 8.4 premium system from factory but switch the head unit to the Alpine i509 Restyle, I assume this kit will work with my Jeep then, correct?
Can somebody please recommend an upgrade to the "upgraded" Alpine system for the '22 Rubicon. Had a slightly better sound in my 16 Rubicon. Thank you in advance!
The jk needs this but personally I think the jl and jt wranglers sound perfect. Especially when comparing it next to my friends Broncos 🙄 and e en those guys agreed. . My tj needs an up grade though
They're right you know! Here's the link to the PSS-22WRA - www.quadratec.com/p/alpine/pss-22wra-waterproof-full-sound-system-upgrade-jeep-wrangler-unlimited-jk?
I installed the PSS-23WRA and SPV-65-JLT in my 2019 JLU about 2 years ago. Is there an option to buy the 2 lower dash speakers and pods separately? I'd like to remove the last of the factory speakers and upgrade to the ones in the PSS-24WRA kit.
Yes! You can buy just the SPV-65X-WRA Speakers with dash pods separately - www.quadratec.com/p/metra/front-pods-alpine-spv-65x-wra-speakers-wrangler-jl-gladiator-jt?
I just installed this kit in my 2022 and I’m not impressed. It’s real loud at 10, but speakers overhead crackle the music sounds eh and I really don’t feel that deep bass like I did with the same alpine bass box in my 2017. Guess I’ll have to go through all the wiring again
Update: when toggling the cluster of switches on the amp, the switch heads are white, but the manual has the correct position set as black, so just do the opposite and it will sound great.
IM in the process of of installing this… so you mean that the right position is the one indicated by the black rectangle in the switch diagram… so replicate that in the amp? Or do the oposite of what the black indicates?
I am surprised you ran the power wire through the floor drain plug.....I get it its easy but that plug is designed to drain water... the wrong place to put a power wire connected to the battery even if it is fused. other other wise very helpful video.
Did you happen to install this system and run it a different way? I’m going to install and was wondering if there was a better way than through the drain plug
Look, we want you to express yourself, okay? Now if you feel that only commenting the bare minimum is enough, then okay. But some people choose to comment more and we encourage that, okay? You do want to express yourself, don't you?
I don’t think the alpine speakers doing the good job because my 2023 Jeep Wrangler jl the speakers is stupid the sound for the first 2mins of the music is good after that is stupid!!the sound is starting low even the volume is high
These things are junk, blew up 2 subs in less than a month and had to tear it all out and replace, my installer and Alpine fought me and would not return them for what I paid preorated the amount. Will never by Alpine again ever!!

He just Bidened it up
Thanks for making this big project, ‘easier’. The step by step was perfect.
Take a drink every time he says plug and play!
Good Luck!
If I had waited a couple of years, I could have just bought this kit. This is basically two previous Alpine kits and a Metra speaker pod upgrade.
A million thanks; just completed the installation yesterday; this video made the installation process a lot easier.
Your com is from 8 months ago, could you share your experience with this kit? How is it performing? Has it got any rain when topless? Thanks
That's a lot of work for a sound upgrade!
I have the Alpine premium audio system already. It sounds great!! Good video with lots of dash removal info!!
We need this for the JK!
They have one. It’s the PSS-22WRA
Here it is - www.quadratec.com/p/alpine/pss-22wra-waterproof-full-sound-system-upgrade-jeep-wrangler-unlimited-jk?
Dayum! Ssooo much work for the speaker pods! 👀. I’d lose my patience and break something lol haha. Good video tho
Would love to have the sub sitting in the back like the factory ones do.
May need this for my Jeep. Thanks for the install video
Glad to help

Have you used it with the top off yet?

@@theengineer8290have you tried it yet with the top down? Debating this? How’s the loudness?
WOW ! I think my stock radio sounds just fine.
I was just looking to upgrade my sound system in the JT! Awesome!
Go for it!
Ordering mine asap!
Looks good. I just bought a 24 and wondering what changes will be needed for that install.
I've been wanting this kit for so long. My jeep came with the stock cheapo one :(
Thanks for the detailed video. Keep up the great work.
Thanks for watching!
Great video, Rob! Just ordered for my JT!🎶
Love alpine, good quality 👌🤘
Looks like a nice upgrade.
I already have the premium factory system, but I was very happy to see the steps I need to take to jam polyfill into every empty plastic cavity I can find to get rid of those damn plastic rattles... >:(
Would love to have that Recovery kit!!
Great video per usual!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very clean install
Love your products. Great videos.
Glad you like them!
Awesome videos!
Good detailed video
I will just roll my windows down on my 98 Jeep Tj and listen to your radio😂😂😂
Alpine has speakers for your TJ too! www.quadratec.com/p/alpine/5-14-coaxial-2-way-speaker-set-97-02-wrangler-tj?

I’m in the market for a Jeep JT so the recovery gear would be nice
Looks good. Need that in my JL
Would love that recovery kit.
Is there a kit that works with stock alpine JL?
Any replacement for 2024 and if you already have the alpine? I need a sound bar replacement.
Great video. It says this works for base audio. Does that include the 7" screen and base audio without sub or only the 5" totally base audio?
Do you have sets for the cherokee?
Another interesting video!
What kind of bed cap is that ? Not sound related 😊
It's an ARE CX Classic Cap. It will be on the website shortly!
Wow that's allot lol 🤣 but great install your hired Rob .
Hmm looks sweet!
Sounds even sweeter!
So, what kit would be recommended then for the 2018 JL 2 door wrangler??
If I have the 8.4 premium system from factory but switch the head unit to the Alpine i509 Restyle, I assume this kit will work with my Jeep then, correct?
Can somebody please recommend an upgrade to the "upgraded" Alpine system for the '22 Rubicon. Had a slightly better sound in my 16 Rubicon. Thank you in advance!
Be great for my jeep and the recovery gear would be awesome for my son's cherokee
It's always the Cherokee's causing trouble and getting stuck! 😂
I bought a hitch from you, but now I want a tube rear bumper to match the front. I'm assuming you have something and can sort me out.
Please Help! Is this Alpine PSS-24WRA available to install into Jeep Wrangler Sport 2024 2 DOOR? If not, which one is the best to install?
I wonder what the difference is between this vs the premium alpine?
if you do have the apline system which one is the upgrade kit you need?
How does this sound compared with "upgraded JL factory version?"
The jk needs this but personally I think the jl and jt wranglers sound perfect. Especially when comparing it next to my friends Broncos 🙄 and e en those guys agreed. . My tj needs an up grade though
JK’s have one. It’s the PSS-22WRA.
They're right you know! Here's the link to the PSS-22WRA - www.quadratec.com/p/alpine/pss-22wra-waterproof-full-sound-system-upgrade-jeep-wrangler-unlimited-jk?

Am I cheap or 2800 Canadian is way too much for this upgrade.... if you install it yourself!
Just followed this to a T, sub doesnt work. Any suggestions?

The sound bar doesn’t fit a 2024 jeep wrangler. I bought one and it doesn’t fit jeep changed the whole layout of the soundbar housing.
Im new to the Jeeps, i did own Grand Cherokee but just recently purchased a Gladiator, what is the JK or JT?
JT is the Gladiator. JK is the designation for wranglers produced between 2007-2018. JL is the Wrangler from 2018-current.
@@Quadratec so JT is always the Gladiator no matter the year?
@@Biggev77 JT = Jeep Truck
I could really use a recovery gear kit

Ummmm……just get the factory Alpine upgrade

Will this work with the amplified factory system
No, it is not compatible with the Premium Factory Audio option
@@Quadratec do they make one that is?
