Having owned all the different versions of the Chevy Silverado going back to 1987, I think their is a difference in the factory radios. On the 2014 you have a lot more to play with to tailor the sound. I could not image this set-up on my last two series of trucks. (2009 & 2003). Instead I had some serious equipment in both. I would love to just have some pre-amp outputs for highs, mids & lows and then add my own amps with this front-end. It can be done, but price, return to stock ability and just plain getting older..... I don't need it as much any more. I actually still have a lot of the equipment and speakers and may try updating the speakers. I have a set of ZR series JL Audio speakers and a set of German made MB Quart QSD216 speakers. We'll see in the future.

Well, good thing is, most web places discount it. Of course, they just came out with them "officially" so it may take a bit. I am even more fortunate as I can get it for a WHOLE lot cheaper from Kicker due to working for a company that sells their products.

Yep, pretty much. Kicker did not sell them till they showed them at CES. GM I guess had a lock on it for a bit. It was just put on Kicker's site last week.

Hmm, idk then, maybe I am mistaken. I swore I looked for it on their website last month and they were not there. I know for a fact they were not in the accommodation system until last week.

Ahh, now it makes sense. You had me thinking I was losing my mind. Mine will be here on Friday. Probably will not get to it until Monday though.

I got mine installed yesterday! It is perfect! I got it for $869. shipped. Hard to beat for the price.

Hey LaVaDog did you get just the sub setup or the whole upgrade kit and where did you get it?

    • Today I filled up with 4.899 gallons of fuel at a cost of $4.899 a gallon. $24 bucks. 290 miles. 59.2 mpg. After my 4% COSTCO discount just under eight cents a mile.  
    • Howdy folks,   Recently I pulled a heated steering wheel and clock spring out of a 2015 Sierra All Terrain (part numbers coming soon - will have to disassemble), and just installed it on my 2016 Sierra WT (as base model as it gets).   On install, I noticed that I’m missing the connector often tucked behind the dash for the heating element.     No problem… or so I thought.   I used an “Add-A-Fuse” at my heated steering wheel fuse location, which has voltage, but no wires. I ran it to the positive of the heated steering wheel (Violet/White), and took black to ground.   Hooked up the battery, turned the truck on - no heated steering wheel. No button backlights. Was pleased to see that my cruise control was working though.   Read a post suggesting reversing polarity, so I gave it a shot. Violet and White to ground, Black to power.    Aha! Heat! But I seemingly can’t turn it off AND still no backlights on any of the buttons.    Checked all fuses, everything is still in good order. I’m stumped.   Does anyone have any insight? If so, please share!
    • I'm about 1800 miles into my last oil change, and yesterday a message appeared saying oil life was at 77%. Not sure why it popped up but I think all of these electronics could be susceptible to solar flares or somesuch. I change my oil right at 3K each time, and that was the first time in 10870 miles that message came up. Strange thing is that it showed on the screen at all since I don't drive with that sort of info displayed on the DIC.

    • Checked the pads today and there's plenty of meat on them. If the message keeps coming up, I'll just answer YES that the pads were replaced and wait for the squeal.
