Hey, I just got these. The back row has an extra little lip that gets in the way of the under-seat-cargo tray. Does yours have that? I may have ordered the wrong one.bc471ea5fb8510f9d236f7dd2e7cb74a.jpgbcfedfc16d989781ea3807b04867e93c.jpg374a9401b56c02545cd112f8c50e9e90.jpg

First paint correction and seal on the AT4 now that winter is over. This blue looks even better after a clay/polish/seal.

Replaced the GE clock radio sounding speakers in the back and did some sound deadening while things were apart.

 

I could forgive the relative lack of volume from the stock ones, but not the total lack of any high range sound and lack of clarity. With the Kicker sub back there, I really wanted some speakers with proper tweeters to make it sound a little brighter. Bought these JBLs from Crutchfield for $59.99, w/ free harness adapters, free speaker mounts and free shipping. Seemed like a no brainer to give it a try. They are one of the more sensitive aftermarket speakers I found at a reasonable cost, and they sound a hell of a lot better and clearer than the Bose!!!

That’s awesome! I got the Kicker sub coming next week, so I might have to do this too. Do you have a link for the speakers? And how hard was it to remove the door panel? Thanks!

Door panels are very easy to remove and put back on, I’ve had all four of mine off now to do various things. There are a lot of vids on YouTube, fronts and backs come apart the same exact way. Main sketchy part is the fake wood trim pieces. The clips are REALLY tight, and the trim has a little “tongue” that goes into the armrest so you can’t just rip them straight off.
 

Crutchfield does send you a PDF with color photographic instructions too. Don’t want to sound like a shill for them because I’ve never bought anything else from them and probably won’t again anytime soon. But it was a good experience and a good deal.

Nice work!  So the sound is that much better?  Did you replace the fronts?  I don't have the sub just LTZ Bose but I'd like some better sound all around.

Have you replaced the front speakers?  If so, what did you use?

Fronts are all stock Bose. I sound deadened the front doors to get rid of rattles and tighten things up and it sounds pretty good to me. The sub helps too. It takes some of the load off the front speakers so they don’t get all distorted from being overworked.

 

My main problem was with the back speakers. I know they are just fill and I can tell they don’t get a lot of power, but they were shockingly bad. If you fade 100% to the rear you’ll hear what I’m talking about.
 

I replaced one back speaker, left the other stock and turned the stereo on to get a feel for the difference and it’s substantial. The JBLs are a lot clearer and actually contribute some mid and high frequencies. Unlike the Bose that just sounded monotone.
 

Finding an efficient replacement speaker for back there is critical though. Because as I said, they are not getting a lot of power at all. I highly doubt they are even on the Bose amp, probably just driven by the head unit.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By KARNUT · Posted

      But Grumpy I did show several subdivisions that had homes starting in the 170K range. If you bought a Townhouse or Condo you could go cheaper. Same with a car 3000 dollars in the 70s translates to around 20K today. There are several models at that price. You actually get more for the money. In the 70s I drove a 3000$ car bought a 28K home and made 4.50 per hour. Thank goodness for overtime. Today I could buy a 170K house drive a 20K car and make 25 dollars an hour operating the same machine today. The difference the house, car, machine would be better and have AC. And I wouldn’t be taxed on overtime. And statistically your wife works too. Easing the burden. I thought we agreed to disagree. I brought receipts earlier, showing examples. I think you’re more stubborn than me. I was done with this debate.

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.
