    I just ordered "Metra 71-1761" and "Metra 70-1761" to add my Sundown SD-2 8's but haven't attempted the install yet. I got the part numbers from this thread: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/2016-tacoma-double-cab-audio-install-build.402547/

    You had me worried so I went and checked. They definitely fit my non-JBL head unit:

    Yes those are the ones and they do fit. There is one wire on the small plug that controls the backlight. You have to add it to the plug which can be a pain in the butt, but not too bad. There's a thread on here on how to do it.

    Can someone give me some hints on how to remove the center consul? I think the access cab with automatic transmission would be the same procedure for as the double cab? I'd like to be able to remove it to be able to run wiring to an amp under the seat in my access cab and would like to have a clue as to what I'm doing before I start removing screws and such.
