    I think he's just saying that if you don't know what you're doing then you might not want to do it yourself or by yourself, being a critical part to stop your 4000lb cruise missile flying down the hwy. :D

    It's actually very easy and I will be willing to help you when you're ready.

    I'll be damned if I didn't tweak them right lol

    Sounds crazy but yep throwing the ebrake on while in reverse is the way to do it.

    x2! Just need a flashlight and some tiny pliers and you could do it in the BWW parking lot after a meet

    The amount of work to get that thing wired up to our trucks, is not worth it. Our harness is not the same as the newer trucks.
    For the price. You can buy an aftermarket hu that has better quality than a stock hu.


    Why do people replace stock Hu for a newer stock hu. I think it's stupid idea. A stock Hu puts out 5 watts. If that to each speaker. Aftermarket Hu usually does 20 to 30 watts or so to each speaker.

    You would be surprised out how much better your stock speakers will sound with an aftermarket HU upgrade. Dennis is right, the factory stero just doesn't put out enough power to push those speakers. Now you will have to be carflefku ad you can blow those factories as I believe they are only rated for 15-20 watts. I can double check that tonight when I get home.
