I just put a Sony Xplod CDX-M600 in my 03' Tacoma. I went thru and wired everything accordingly. The only problem is that the radio doesn't play very loud, and has a hard time with the reception. The cd player on the other hand, i hardly have to turn up the volume at all and it plays fantastic. I have checked the back of the antenna plug in several times and there is no visible damage, or problems. What do i need to do? Any suggestions? Thanks for the help.
