Oh and spend the money on treating the doors. The mid bass in my truck is amazing with the sound skins treatment and roadkill surrounds. It's probably the most impressive thing about the truck, but the AF tweets are damn good too.

I ran the sub off channel 5&6 because I thought it was ample power for the sub and I didn't want to waste the quality AC channels on a set of rear fill speakers. I was wrong, the AC bridged channels were decent but lacking a bit of power for my sub considering the active stage in front. So I pulled the Infiniti amp and replaced it with a pioneer mono block 800 watt amp. Now my sub has plenty of power and the rear fill resides on the AC channels 5&6. Also ended up buying AF tweets and replaced the Hertz tweets on the dash. They were just a bit bright and didn't care for them, the AF's are damn impressive. The AC DSP amps are good but the software is buggy and the tuning aspect of the software is not very friendly. If I was starting over I probably would've went a different route but it was too late in the game to change. As for accubass, it works but with a remote bass knob you'll find that it's not needed. I set my amp to turn on the bass level to a reasonable level, actually a bit low. Then when I get in my truck and drive if Im not in a jamming mode I don't find myself having to mess with the knob. If I want to rock some tunes, then I dial it in on each song. Works well. So I've switched accubass off. As for a good signal, you'll be fine. The stock head unit isn't too bad. Basically I don't exceed 3/4 volume and everything sounds clean. I could see some clipping after 3/4.

There's a fine line on setting input gain and then output level. Otherwise you have chimes being too loud. What equipment are you using?

The backup camera is under the passenger side glove box.... Exactly where you were playing.

Cloth is no better in my Elevation. Hard as a rock and no vent, just heaters. My dad has an AT4 with leather, same firmness.

When did you do the intake? Maybe a vacuum leak? Intake not seated fully?

I would've done the same thing being under warranty.

If you want a cheaper unit than the LX above I use this one in my camaro for telemetry on my go pro. And so far this one hasn't caused any CEL's like the OBDLINK MX unit I used to use. http://BAFX Products Android Wireless Bluetooth OBD2 Scanner & Fault Code Reader Diagnostic Scan Tool for Cars & Trucks – for All OBD2 Protocols on All Consumer Vehicles 1996 & Newer https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005NLQAHS/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_i_YTE8DD91JNWT709TXRZK?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

I have the same gator low profile and when I installed it I did set it a bit low and so I have to pull the gate down when opening and shut it with a bit of force. But it's not the covers fault, I just wanted it to sit as low as possible. My Dad has the same truck and cover, just finished it and installed it the right way and his opens with the keyfob no issues. It's all in how you install it. Nice cover for just over $200.

I just finished my install tonight. Audio control D6 1200, Hertz mpk 6 1/2 components, Hertz Cento 6 1/2 for rear fill, Image Dynamics idq 12 for a sub in a sealed box from subthump. I'm using the D6 to run the mpk tweeters active, mpk components in the front doors and channel 5&6 bridged going to thq idq12. The Cento rear doors are running off a small Infinity amp. As far as an update for you I can tell you that the front door signal is not full range in the Bose system. With the D6 I'm able to sum the Tweeter and the door signals from the Bose amp and make a full range signal from them combined. It does seem that L series amp has channel summing so you'll just have to set that up and you'll be set. I do believe you might want some sort of DSP down the road since the factory head unit signal is not flat.

Also, I have to say the stereo doesn't sound nearly as bad now that the Audiocontrol is running the show. I flattened out the bose peaks with the auto tune feature of the dsp, it's now much more bearable. Can't wait to get these new speakers installed.

I'm sorry, I have to disagree. I just setup my audiocontrol D6. 1200 amp and using the input RTA in the DSP software shows that the door speakers are not full range. I had to "sum" the front door and dash bose signal in order to get a full input signal to work with in my amp. Currently I'm running the stock door and dash speakers with my 12" subthump box under the rear seat. Next weekend I should be able to treat the doors and get those speakers installed. I'm going with Hertz mid bass in the doors and tweets in the factory dash location. Coaxs in the rear doors.

Agreed, mine are still out.

Could you post a pic at night with the latest lluminated?

Damn, really thought it disabled. Thanks for testing.

Well hopefully someone comes along that can prove/disprove it soon. My fuses have been out for over a week with no drivability issues.

Please do! Nobody has been able to know for sure if this works. I'd like to know 100%

I hooked up to my Bluetooth scan tool yesterday and I cannot see anyway to monitor how many cylinders are active in real time. I do believe pulling the fuses works but I have no way of proving it.

Strange, my 5.3 runs perfectly fine without them Just waiting for someone to confirm if this actually shuts off dfm. I think it does from the way it drove last night but I want to know for sure.

I have a scanner but I'm not sure if there's something that we can monitor to show dfm.... Does anyone know?

Correct

Great post, I didn't know about this. Pulled 60 and 67 and just took a short ride. It will take a couple of rides this week to determine.

I can tell you in my 21 Elevation if I remote start it on a cold day, within 2 minutes my seats are definetely warm and you feel it when you sit down getting in the truck. Same with the steering wheel, toasty. Sounds like something is wrong with the settings, heaters.

Haha

Can't imagine you can shove a 15 under there, but I have the subthump 12" box that goes under the rear drivers side rear seat. I installed an image dynamics 12" in mine but isn't wired yet because I was having issues with the truck a i thought I was getting rid of it. Now planning to install somewhere in the spring most likely.
