Danny Did you install something for the steering wheel stereo controls ? Thanks

 

yeah i used the pac steering wheel control adapter. the os4 has a plug ready for it so you dont have to run any extra wires.

I am right in the middle of installing new speakers, 2 amps and sub. This has been a great thread. I want to ask what size plywood you used (thickness) and how did you mount the top with screws? Also did you screw the amps to the plywood? Did they go though the plywood to the rear metal? That is a good looking job and would like to get some pointers. Thanks!!

[undercover_skank]

thanks! at the top of where i mounted the plywood. there were places open. its kind of hard to explain. but well you can screw into it without going through the cab wall. the plywood was pre cut at lowes. umm 1/8th in thick? it was like 5 bucks for a 4x2. yeah i used short screws to mount the amp onto the plywood

Thanks SKANK (almost feel bad saying that ). I have the speakers installed in the doors and the wiring run for the amps. When I take the insulation off the back wall I am sure I will see where you screwed into the cab. I was thinking I would need thicker wood so I could use longer screws to hold up the amps. Seeing how it worked out for you, I will do the same. Thanks again.

haha. no problem! yeah youll have to look at it and youll know what im talking about

i ended up finishing up for the most part today. all i need is my box to come in. and i need to pick up my subs from my moms house.

 

all i had left basically was wiring. so i pulled the under dash appart to run the power wire. i stuffed it down a rubber gromet that was there already. located right next to the brake booster. ran the amp wire down the left side.

i didnt take many pics of the wiring process. speaker wires

this is what i ended up with. ALL DONE!

 

i mounted up the fuse holders on the fuse box. big 3 upgrade pic. and second battery

 

thanks everyone for the comments and looking!

Looking good and nice choice of equipment

[undercover_skank]

thanks! most of this stuff was out of my old tahoe. i wish i had the newer version of the components because the tweeters are smaller and i would have been able to make them fit in the stock location

Are you going to put deadening on the floor?

Hey man install looks great. I am currently in the process of ordering the things I need to install in my truck, I already have teh indash nav put in but I am waiting on my bypass to come in so I don't have to have the truck in park to play DVDs. Headrests w/monitors are on the way. Should have them early next week. Still uncertain on compenents at the moment I have a Kicker amp sitting at my house out of my camaro but I haven't decided if I will reuse it or not. As for Subs and stuff not sure which way to go, probably Kicker, i have connection (living in Oklahoma has its perks lol). But I was debating getting sound deadening but your thread has made me decide it is really something I need. SO thank you for that. This is a very thorough thread. +1! I may post some pics of the headrest monitors install and use this thread as a guide. Thanks so much.

i only did the back floor since the subs are going to be facing down. i was kind of on a budget for deadening so i only did the parts that made a big difference
