Thanks for all of these videos! I'm installing two amps, subs, door speakers, sound deadening with all new wiring in my Tacoma and your videos have been key. I'm basically following your amp rack build 1:1, taking notes and lessons learned from here. Much appreciated. Looking forward to the big 3 upgrade video too as I'm sure I'll be using it for reference!
i have a '15 and where the stock (jbl) tweeter was mounted in the door, i used the little subaru/toyota tweeter mounts and filed them out to fit the 2.5" morel midrange. so now there's a 3-way comp set in the doors, 6.5 with speaker rings and mounting bracket (6x9 to 6.5) and the midrange in the old tweet spot, then the new tweets in the sail panel. there are a few 2.5 mids out there, Morel, AudioFrog, etc.. for you having the dash location that i dont have in m gen 2, that's even better. hope you love those Focals, im sure they sound amazing.
The kicker 2.75" mids also work well in that 2nd gen tweeter position. Not as good as the morels or audio frogs, but they only cost about $50 (vs $180-250+)
real nice install. the subaru kicker oem tweeter upgrade fits in a tacoma factory location and they scream and will handle every bit of that audiocontrol amp if you just reattach your tweeter wire. they balance with the front door speaker on their own with no crossover needed. I been running mine in a wrx over a year on a soundigital amp at 145watts rms.
MAN, I CANT EVEN BEGIN TO TELL YOU WHAT MY FIRST SUB BOX LOOKED LIKE, IT WAS SO BAD!!! BUT YOU REALLY DID AN AWESOME INSTALL, ESPECIALY FOR IT BEING YOUR FIRST TIME! IT TURNED OUT SICK, YOU DO REALLY GOOD VIDEOS TOO! YOU SHOULD BE PROUD!
Cleanest install I’ve ever seen! Props to you my guy! I’m about to do same in my 2023 Tacoma but on a smaller scale, since it’s my wife’s daily driver. This is 🔥
Good job you doing it right I’m my Tacoma I left the floor the problem areas for vibration are the biggest is the roof than the doors I’m running 6000 rms and 1 15s I’m doing a blothru with accordion boot to the bed of Tacoma. And on 4 channel I tied into factory wiring into doors since the wiring was already there no need to run new into all 4 doors I just ran new into were I disconnected the factory jbl amp that I got rid of so that made it able to use factory door wires.
Great job . Pulling the complete interior I know it was a job. I chose to go a different route when I did mine I did the doors sound treatment back wall by rear window jbl stage series 6.5 and 6x9 s and infinity tweeters used factory wires swapped the factory head unit for a Boss touch screen. Custom box for 2 sundown audio sa 6 1/2 subs a power acoustik 2500 cvlass d amp . Great build
Super fun doing all that wiring wasn’t it?!?! I had the same issues in mine except I had to retain the factory Jbl amp! I relocated it behind the rear passenger side seatbelt super fun. you did an excellent job with your installation and this video.
Nice setup! I think you'll spend more than you need to, and not get the sound you want with a focal 3 way, and not installing the tweets in the dash. The sound stage will come up, back to the middle with tweeters in the dash, refracting of the frond windshield. You should have a listen to a 15 Tacoma I did just a few weeks ago. We did cheap, Alpine type s components, on some big power compared to what you have, and everyone that's heard it, always comments on the sound quality. It sold the next job on a Chevy. The rear needs help with the coaxial's the customer wanted(stock unmodified appearance) and would benefit from a component tweeter added up high in the door sill. I JUST installed a similar setup in a 15 Silverado, tweets in the dash. Having the component tweeters bounce off the front window made this install sound amazing. Sound stage was up higher, and the balance between the 6x9 and tweets off the dash blended perfect in the large cab with minimal tweaks on the sound processor. Enough volume to make your ears ring, and clarity to impress anyone other than a SQ judge at a show. I feel a proper(not an overpriced name like focal, it's just a fancy, overpriced name) set of drivers on the power you have will yield the results your after. Lots of other better brands that make snob brands like focal look way over priced, and under performing. For the price of the focal 3 way set, you could have some German rainbow components that would walk the focal set in any way, for around the same price or cheaper. Nice clean install though, looks great. Good to see others take pride in their work! Great job man!
Upgraded my system on my 20 Taco as well, looking forward to the Big 3 upgrade video as I still need to do mine. Trying to figure out the mounting points.
Love this video your awesome. Keep up the great work Hope to see more great videos. Now pull the seats and plastic trim and carpet back out get some rubber grommets for all those wires that you ran through those holes Trust me from experience the tape and the wire loom ain’t enough. There are a bunch of different size grommets at your local Autozone or Amazon. Oh and I forgot to mention are you a professional. Because the work you do is by far the best I’ve seen. Love how you painted the ground wire ends it shows you have common sense.
Bro, I'm a fan, I liked that you took matters into your own hands. You did an awesome job. I'm also gonna do something similar to what you just did, but in a 2017 Chevy Colorado, not as much room as your Taco has, but I'm gonna make it work. I'm gonna watch your stuff, you take personal pride in your work, Thanks!
Pretty big build. For like saying audio competition or like a installer award. I do hope you put in an aftermarket head unit after doing this much work
Great build video. FYI I also used the Kicker KS with tweeters built in different vehicle. They are awful but the component version are dope. Not sure what up but imaging is night and day.
Hertz Mille Legend 3-way over Focal krx3's all the way! Come hear for yourself. I have each in 2 Vanderhalls that I rent in the Orlando area. If you like the Focals, you can take them off my hands.
Great install! Correct me if I’m wrong, I’m stuck in the early 2000s with tech, but is the output from the head unit to the dsp the 9 wire cable? I’m wanting to put my old system in my truck, and I have rca’s, but I figured the stock head unit didn’t have rca outputs.
seeing the interior really helped for my setup. I already put my subs in but i have the JBL stuff so that was a pain in the butt. Anyways, i think i might be doing some changes for routing wiring now that i seen everything ripped out just by watching this. Thanks.
I also have some tips to increase voltage remotely with a knob, or just gain a simple half volt over what's commanded by the vehicle, with a simple fuse swap. I have my personal daily Toyota setup with a continuously variable knob, and can change it on the fly for "listening conditions". Lol! If you want some info, or a kit of all the parts to do the variable mod, I have 3 in stock, and you are more than capable to install it. Would go very nice with the big three, adjust on the fly from stock to past 15v if desired. Holler if that sounds like something you would add, the price will surprise you big time. In a good way...
Next time u could of ran 2 sets on nine wire to the head unit, 1 for the output into the dsp/amp and one set from the amp output to the stereo harness, that way you dont have to run individual wires to the speakers
The only thing I would've done different, is run another 9 wire from the output of the amp to the existing speaker wire up front where the head unit is.
I ran monster sky high 2/0 so I had to run under truck inside frame than toward center of truck we’re I found a rubber plug and into the cab right in the back we’re amps are mounted worked great. Ran ground there same grommet and ground to frame under truck. To be extra safe I put my power wires in some wire loom for extra protection since it’s under truck. If not tuning 6000 watts rms I’d probably just run 0 gauge three firewall too.
This is turning into a SQ Build. Looks good man keep it up. Can wait to hear it. Doing a big 3 on Toyota is pointless bc the voltage is not going to change and it won’t go pass 13.7 bc of voltage regulator
Thank you! The big 3 upgrade is not to increase voltage. I’ve added more “accessories” to the truck which means more current (amperes) is going to flow through the battery and charging system. The stock wiring is not designed for this high current. It can burn up if there’s too much current. Increasing the size of the wires allows for more current handling. Think of it as water flowing through hoses. I can’t have a thick hose flowing to my amps and then have the little one from the body to the (-) of the battery. Since the alternator is what powers everything on the truck when the engine is running, it needs the wiring upgrade as well. I’ll explain it in detail on the upcoming video
There's a site that sells a small fuse to connect to your 12 volt in your fuse block. It's made just for toyotas and I've used it for two 4 runners. All stock with big 3 and the voltage sits at mid 14s all day.
Ive heard 12s and 15s in pickups a bunch of times. I’ve always wanted to hear one of those systems where people stuff like 5 or 6 8” subs in a truck. Idk how it would sound tho because I love the low bass. 😂
Thanks for these videos! Ive been screwed over by two audio shops now and I’ve decided to fix what they’ve messed up and do it myself. I’ve got a very similar setup only with an arc audio ps8-50. Will you be doing a video going over how you tune the system and dsp?
Clean set git it take how many rms is the amp pushing the subs n u think they can take more i am looking into those subs a set off 12 s on a kicker cx 1800.1 at 1 ohm
Your amp has 4 channel speaker input and output. That's 16 wires. Traditionally it's just RCA as input then 8 wires output right? Just saying cause I don't think I need to run those 9 wires. Just the remote. Am i missing something obvious? 🤣
I’m going to keep the alternator stock for now until I start adding more accessories. I don’t plan on maxing out the the sound system so I think my alternator can keep up lol
@@FloGarage sounds good lol. Im looking to upgrade mine because i have a 15' skar sub and a rack of 4 8" mids and 4 3.5" tweeters playing at half power. dont wanna kill my truck lol
How do those shallows compare bass wise to a non shallow mount. I have to do shallow in my crew cab and have never had shallow subs. Always did a seat lift or found a way to make full size subs fit.
I have two JL Audio 12TW3-D4 shallow mounts on my 2017 tundra behind the seat and they hit hard. People don’t even believe they’re shallow subs when they hear my set up.
The install is looking freaking awesome. You mentioned the taco tunes adapter and the kicker key. Can i just run wires to each after market speaker and then connect into the taco tunes adapter and plug into stock head unit? Or will this require any cutting? I can't decide if I want to go with OEM audio plus with the speakers and their processor. I like the fact that it's a straight plug and play though.
Thank you! Yes. You can run speaker outs straight to the doors. The harness I got from taco tunes is a “signal processor kit” or something like that. So basically it goes from the output of the radio to your signal processor or amp and then from your amp’s output to the factory harness, which goes to the speakers (including the factory tweeters). I think taco tunes has one that goes just from the radio to the amp. You should be able to get away with not cutting wires. OEM audio plus seems pretty solid because it’s all plug and play. I didn’t go with that because I like building stuff and making something custom and different.
@@FloGarage thanks for the reply and the awesome help. I think taco tunes has the other adapater you were referring to but that is just for a sub amp, I think that's what I got from forums and won't help with the door speakers. And yes OEM audio + is looking super nice but that price tag, I'm trying to see which would be better as far as sound quality, OEM audio or aftermarket with amp. I can't wait for the next videos. I'm going to keep up. It's looking super nice.
why didn't you just use a second run of speed wire from the amp to the factory harness behind the radio? that would have simplified the install greatly.
Impressive. However spending all that time & money & then using Bluetooth audio ( that’s compresses the frequencies) makes no sense. Your system is only as good as it’s weakest link.
Thanks for all of these videos! I'm installing two amps, subs, door speakers, sound deadening with all new wiring in my Tacoma and your videos have been key.

Thank you! Good luck on your build! 🤘🏽
Kuddos for all the work and actually documenting it!! No deadening of the door panels tho???
My dude...awesome work. About to start my project on my Ridgeline. You just showed me a preview to what's instore for me. Great job bro.
You should have soldered the connections of your door speakers because the humidity reduces the electrical contact.

And one more question how did you get the sub wire at
Love this video your awesome. Keep up the great work

Nice job man, high quality parts and a clean install
Did you only ran the 9 wire to the stereo and the amp?
Great build video. FYI I also used the Kicker KS with tweeters built in different vehicle. They are awful but the component version are dope. Not sure what up but imaging is night and day.
what was the 9 wire for ? then you also ran individually speaker wire to doors to and i never saw any rcas from amp to stereo
Sounds good I wish mycarsound like yours
That must have taken you a few days to finish the project… 🎉🎉🎉

U should look into the snowman mid and tweet from kicker..they sound awesome and look good as well
Do you do wiring and audio for your career or just for fun? Your setup looks very well elaborated.
DIY?? Bruh I feel like you have done that Professionally lol
The only thing I would've done different, is run another 9 wire from the output of the amp to the existing speaker wire up front where the head unit is.
I install 4 gravity 6.5 mid range and sound very loud
Would like to have seen video of the subs in motion. Otherwise, great job. Are you happy with everything?
Motivation for days. Can’t wait to see the Focal 3 way speakers installed. Also do you plan to put sound deadening on the doors?
I ran monster sky high 2/0 so I had to run under truck inside frame than toward center of truck we’re I found a rubber plug and into the cab right in the back we’re amps are mounted worked great.

Very impressive work! Clean and legit! Pro!
I find it interesting the most important parts to deaden would be the doors and roof.
Yet that is just me.
Would you be willing to make and sell this exact set up?
Nice work. Wish I could commission you to do an amp rack under the driver seat for my Audio Control amp simIlar to the guys at 5Star Car Audio
awesome job. just curious how much would a shop charge for this installation?
Great job young man.
very cool buddy your smart with that wiring

@@FloGarage Thanks Fam. I was rusty. I just read into this now... U can use one or the other but not both 👌🏽

Nice work keep it up man!
Thank you!
Hey liked your video, great video btw! I would like to know how much did you spend in total for your sound system?
Are you going to be upgrading your alternator as well when you do the big 3 upgrade? excited to see part 4!

What size bolt did you use for the ground on the frame? im thinking about doing my ground like that also
I used a 3/8 bolt. An M10 works too
why didn't you just use a second run of speed wire from the amp to the factory harness behind the radio? that would have simplified the install greatly.
1000% agree
Bro nice work are you a installer for a living
Thanks! Not really. Just DIY. I’ve done a few on some of my own cars and friends cars
Strange that you spent all that time sound deadening the floor and didn't do the doors. That alone would improve the sound.
I’ve already done the doors. I thought I mentioned it but yeah it does make a difference lol
Impressive. However spending all that time & money & then using Bluetooth audio ( that’s compresses the frequencies) makes no sense. Your system is only as good as it’s weakest link.
What audio format do you recommend
The stock head unit is your downfall
Currently saving up for a different one!
