Stereo Wiring

Hey guys. I'm installing a sub and amp to the factory unit (for now). Anyway, I've got the LOC and all of my pieces, but what wires on the back of the unit are for the rear speakers? If anyone has a wiring diagram I would really appreciate if you shared it. I google searched for an hour but couldn't find anything.

 

Also, I'm thinking about maybe installing the LOC at the rear of the vehicle but I'm not looking forward to pulling off the door panels. Anyone tapped into the speaker wires somewhere else? If so, let me know. I've done a ton of stereo installs, but I can't find a darn wiring diagram for this truck.

 

Thanks,

 

Trey

 

EDIT: This is on a 2008 NON-Bose System.

I just did this same thing to my 2010 non-bose ext cab. I tapped into the RR speaker leads that are underneath the sill plate for the rear door. the wire colors are dark blue+ light blue- and they are twisted together. The LR wire colors are brown+ yellow- if you want to go that way. I mounted the amp behind the big fold up seat, made for a shorter speaker lead run for the loc to tap into the RR speaker. GL with the install.

Alright, so this is really weird. I got this all installed and tapped into the left-rear speaker feed. I plug it all in, turn it on and I have NO sound out of the sub. Amp is on, sub is good as verified by a battery. So I play with the gains some, no luck.

 

THEN, I unplug the RCA from the LOC and once i get the RCA half way out, I get good sound out of the sub. Anyone ever have this before, what is the deal?

hey,

I was thinking of doing the same thing(taping into the rear speakers) but i was curious as to where you hooked up your remote line for your amp to get it to turn on? And did you share it with your speaker or did you just take the leads directly to your amp. Sorry, a newb on keeping the factory stereo in the installation :/

    • WTI futures / speculation is just that. WTI futures <> current 4-7% inflation and national average gas price over $4.00/gallon.   The spot price, at delivery, is currently $87-$95/barrel which is why gas prices remain high.   Edit: oH mY gOd mEnTaL BrEaKdoWn In tHE pOsT aBOve mInE.

    • He does, actually. In another unrelated video he mentions the president called him in the middle of the night to relay some information on a cause (religious based) that he's invested in. Glenn expressed concern that another leftist administration could wield too much power with some procedure the Pentagon was using, classifying certain religions a certain way. Being that he is LDS (Latter Day Saints), he gets hate all the time from ALL over the political spectrum, so he's invested in this. Trump called him back at 5AM to tell him he had made some changes to that classification.   So, yes, they are and have been in contact regularly since the start of the administration. Glenn, of course, always asks his permission before discussing anything on the air.   I already spent an hour or more just searching for these videos. I may have my numbers wrong - I'm not a numbers guy. It may have been a MILLION barrels, not 1.5. The point is, our President, by his actions, gives a crap about America, and US - this is completely OPPOSITE the actions of the prior administration who projected hatred for anyone who wasn't following the left's edicts in lock-step.   Remember, they called January 6th an "Insurrection", when there were ZERO weapons among the crowd, undercover FBI agents agitating the crowd, along with paid leftists acting as aggressors, egging the crowd on in an attempt to whip everyone into a frenzy. It's all been proven.  Pelosi refused Trumps request for more National Guard troops. This smells 100% like an inside job for those with critical thinking skills. Only a handful of guys in the crowd got wrapped up in that, thankfully, but EVERYONE was searched out based on cell phone data, and charges were brought against many. And 6 or so people were locked up and left in solitary confinement for YEARS with ZERO due process!! If you give the slightest crap about our Nation, REGARDLESS of your political leanings, this should frighten you to your core. This is what men suffered, bled, fought, and died against 250 years ago!   This has gone FAR BEYOND left vs. right. This is a  threat to America, and our way of life. This is PRECISELY why Trump, a BILLIONAIRE who could have chosen to take Melania and sit on some tropical island that he could afford to buy himself and RELAX, instead chose to run for office, get hate from literally every corner of the media, get ATTEMPTS on his LIFE constantly, and begin to repair some of the severe damage that's been done to this Great Nation.   I don't know why I bother wasting my precious time here. Everyone has their minds made up. They won't realize we all were correct until it's too late ... after they elect another tyrant that hates America to office (Obama), or another puppet whose administration is secretly running the show behind the scenes (Biden).
