  1. Build date is Jan 2020
  2. I am wanting to upgrade my side mirrors with either OEM or Aftermarket HD 2500 mirrors, however most all the ones I am finding on the net are not power folding. Also I have the 360 camera system as well, and dont want to loose that functionality. Does anyone know if the HD2500 mirrors have power folding and built in cameras? And if so, are the units plug in play from the factory? Curious what others are doing? FYI, I have seen the aftermarket ones on ebay, but none I could find are power folding with cameras. Thanks in advance.
  3. Does anyone know if the center console somehow different from the one under the radio? I used wired Android auto a lot, and it works fine and stays connected as long as I connect it to the port under the radio. However when I plug it into the port inside the console, Android Auto will boot up, but then disconnect 15-30 second later. I'd prefer use the center console port, but its very sporadic so just curious if I am missing something here. TIA
  4. Yeah, unfortunately thats my point, there is not error code or check engine light as others have experienced. Attached is the only thing I am getting. All looks tight and connected under the hood.
  5. Yeah, I did dip switches 1 and 2 up.....left the rest the same, which really is just 3 down the rest are up
  6. Curious if anyone has run into this and what the possible solution might be. I installed a K&N Cold Air Intake system a couple weeks ago, and did have any issues with warning lights, etc, until just a few days ago. After 3 weeks of no issue, now I am getting the "check air filter" message upon start up. When I go into the filter tab in the info display, it doesnt even give me the option to reset it. Any ideas of what to do here? Thanks in advance
  7. I also got around to doing the Kicker woofer upgrade this weekend, and WOW....its definitely worth the upgrade. As others mentioned its not down the block, disturb your neighbors bass, but for passengers in the cab, its more than plentiful BOOM. I want to say the hardest part was t tapping the factory subwoofer leads, was just a tight working space between the center console and the passenger seat. I couldnt be more please with the bose system now with all new speakers (including dash 2.5") and the kicker upgrade. All in, I am probably $1000. I only wish the factory radio had a true equalizer vs the standard 3 option adjustment.
  8. the fronts were mounted recessed in the door panel and the rears were surfaced mounted at the top of the door panel. I didnt want the tweeters down low with the low end speakers. As mentioned however currently the front door tweeters dont work since its not a full range signal, I am sure I will probably update that soon, but for now at least they are installed and I wont have to take off the door panel in the future.
  9. Yes, definitely either add components speakers to the rear doors, or coaxial speakers to the rear doors......just having a speaker that can push a high signal in the rears definitely fills out the rear sound!
  10. Actually it was relatively easy to swap out the door speakers, and I wanted to use component so I could add more sound range in the cab. As it turns out nether of the door speakers have a tweeter, so adding component in the rears definitely livens up the sound in the cab. The using components on the front was kind of a waste since the front door speakers are high pass filtered from the bose amp. Sorry and I should clarify, I installed JL Audio Components for the front doors speakers. C1-690. For the rears, I installed JBL Club 602CTP component speakers. I went with these since they are 3ohm speakers, as they provide less resistance from the factory Amp, allowing them to play louder than traditional 4ohm speakers.
  11. Turns out the front door speakers do NOT receive a full range signal. They cross up with the front speakers in the dash for the highs. Got the JL Audio speakers installed in the front doors and it definitely cleaned up the base, but the tweeters dont produce any sound. The sound is cleaner and doesnt sound muddy as the bose speakers. You do have the turn up the volume a bit more, but then the dash speakers start to bottom out at high volumes, so Ill be replacing those soon. The 6.5 components I put in the back doors were a HUGE improvement however as I couldnt even hear the speakers prior to the swap out. After that I'll finally install the kicker 10" following the guidelines in this post. Cant wait

  13. Agree just put some JL Component 6x9's in the door, to complement the component 6.5" in the rears and the tweeters DO NOT work, so the signal is not full range. While the upgrade in the rear was a huge difference because you can now actually hear sound from the rear, the upgrade in the fronts are not as effective w/o the full range. The bass is definitely tighter and cleaner than the muddy sound of the Bose at high levels, but now when I turn it up the dash speakers start to want to max out. So Ill be replacing those soon too. As for the tweeters I mounted in the door, I will just leave them for now, until I spend more time getting a full range signal to the doors. My next upgrade is the kicker factory upgrade kit which I purchased a few weeks ago...no doubt that will give it just enough punch for it to sound fantastic.
