Has anyone installed the accessory Kicker subwoofer from GM in a crew cab with Bose? I'm wondering if it really works, and also, where it fits exactly and how it's attached? And was it worth the trouble?

I transferred my KICKER sub portion to my Duramax from my 14' 1500. It wasn't hard to do. I just had to splice into two wires behind the drivers side kicker panel and run the power wires under the hood.

If I hadn't already had this system from my other truck, I would have gone LOUDER with an aftermarket sub/amp/control knob.

Not much info on the specifics of the kicker sub, anybody know how big? power?


Seems like for $700 you could buy a box to fit under the seat, 800W amp, and nice 12in sub and still save some money.

I have the factory Kicker sub with Bose in my 2016 Sierra. I really like it, sounds great. Fairly simple to install. Cost is not cheap but considering that this type of thing is factory plug and play, and it's a frivolous type expenditure, it is reasonably priced.

I thought the sub came with the bose system? Is it just sub ready??? I have the bucket seats and the sound system rocks.

7 speaker bose system has a 4" subwoofer mounted under the center console. It sounds like a really nice computer speaker system, definitely not like something snoop would have in his '6 4.

I believe the kicker option is a 200W amp.

 

There's also the JL Stealthbox option but that is over a grand without an amp and not plug and play. I did have a Stealthbox in my 2008 Yukon Denali and it was spectacular.

I'm trying to figure out if the kicker subwoofer plug and play harness that comes in the GM Audio Upgrade, 200\\/400W Sub-Woofer & Amp - GM (19303115) system works with the 2019 Silverado 2500hd with bose system. Or do I need another harness or adapter to connect it properly. Any information would be greatly appreciated

hope you find out.  I have a 10" sub under my seat with Bose but I think the noise cancelling keeping it from achieving its potential.

      My First Project and GMC has me stumped

      By davester · Posted

      are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆

      I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death.

      In the 80's 90's I'd run Honda's 7,500 miles between changes using Red Line HP 5W20 and do it for hundreds of thousands of miles with issues. Back in the day it was an SAE 20 with the HTHS of a SAE 30 and SN add load. It was also very polar. Oxidation VOA was over 120. Besides those motors were SPFI and lean burn tech. I could have likely run it longer but never did.    We had a Toyota bought new I ran on Pennzoil's latest and greatest synthetic of the day with "Penthane". A made up word for a very low dose of PAO. Tried 7,500 mile OCI's in that Group III/VI chemistry and the rings tapped out at 90K. Rocker box wasn't as bad as the one Punch put up but it wasn't good either. Also a SPFI motor.    I'm around 3,750 across the board on these GDI monsters and the oil it tapped out by then usually on TBN/TAN crossover and color. Red Line HP Euro.    The AMSOIL SS brochures tell you to follow the OEM values for the service class but that it can be run up to 25K if monitored. I can't imagine what motor could go that distance and not tap out. I've never owned one.    Yes, I know. Lot's of people do. I'm just not going to be one of them.

      I knew a guy in the early 80's that bought a new Monte Carlo and ran it a 100,000 miles without ever changing the filter or the oil. Just kept adding. It looked like that inside.
