If you take a look at the 1st page of this thread User Tjeli explains the settings pretty good. 1-3 are gain, 4 is remote on, 5 is crossover on\off and 6 is crossover adjustment. I tried raising the gain switches but it was too loud for me even with the control knob. The knob works but I don't like having to make big adjustments all the time. Mine came set up with switch 1,4,5 & 6 up. 2 & 3 are down.

I agree it does need to be fine tuned for different songs and how loud the music is. I tried setting the switches up on mine but it seems to be way too much bass for me. I had to put them back like they had it set. If I set the 1st 3 down I found it to be not enough bass.

That's nice to know they are supplying the new systems with the control knob. Did he say they will also have the dip switches? I have a 2022 AT4 and just installed the kicker sub that I ordered thru the dealership. Luckily I got an older model to add the control knob. I really think kicker should have changed the part number, so people would know what they are ordering if that was a concern for them! Currently I have mine tapped into the sub wiring now with the phases crossed like what another member suggested and I think it sounds pretty good, especially at higher volumes. I'll probably swap it back to the right door later on now that I'm getting used to it so I can compare. I find sometimes tapped to the sub its a little overpowering at low levels even with the dip switches set from factory. One other thing is I find the rear sound is almost non existent coming from the door speakers even if you adjust fade all the way back. Id like to replace rear door speakers with better highs to even sound out better but not sure what's involved.

I bought the gen5diy bed light external kit. It came with the connectors. But since the load was too high, I had to add the relay to control my new bed lights.

What connectors are you talking about?

I agree and seems like there is hardly any sound in the rear of the truck for mids\highs. How did you wire up these 6.5 component speakers with the Bose system? Anything special to do with swapping them out? I'm fine with the front but may want to add more sound to the door speakers. Thanks

Gotcha, yeah I was having to make sure everything was working like it should with the relay and switch. Wish I could have avoided the relay but probably could have only used 2 additional lights then.

Dude, this was when I was testing it all. I soldered everything with heat shrink when it was done. Was just showing a picture of the relay wiring!

Thomas, I just did a similar install with my 2022 GMC AT4 but I already had the gen5diy switch kit. Also bought 4 rock LEDs for the bed and I have the boost auto cargo reverse jumper installed. I have my switch kit installed and after trying to tie the 4 rock LEDs off the existing light they just blinked. So I had to get a relay and powered that off the 7pin trailer harness. Someone was saying to use a diode to stop current flow back from the switch but I separated my switch and relay so didn't think I needed one. I see you grounded your new rock LEDs to the 85 black ground wire. Instead of grounding my 4 new LEDs to 85 relay wire. I grounded them to the existing black ground wire going to the factory bed lights. For some reason everything works now when my truck is off. I can hit the key fob and all the security lights come on, cargo bed and 3rd brake light. Or I can hit my new switch and all 6 bed lights come on. But now I cant figure out what's causing my problem when the truck is running. My key fob will not work and security mirror lights aren't staying on. Do you have the boost auto reverse jumper installed and did you have any issues with your lights not working while the truck is running? Trying to figure out if it could be that ground or a diode I need to fix my problem. Thanks
