1st Gen Tundra Part 2 - Installing New Speakers

[@micbels2080]

This video was perfect! No jibber jabber or flapping of the gums, just watch and pay attention.

[@heberlara6079]

My type of videos man! You don’t get it, rewind it and look at it again. Easy!

[@phslion]

I could be mistaken but these jbl speakers your taking out have 3 different channels running to them, bass 2ohm, mid 4ohm and tweeter. To do this you need to be bypassing the factory Amp to make use of a single speaker. You can do this but it might not be optimized. For anyone reading this you can replace the 7" bass 2ohm with a 4 ohm bass and use a speaker adapter, it will work and leave the other speakers alone. The rear speakers in the JBL system are safe to swap as they are normal.

[@LiL_EyeBags]

What is the wattage by chance I only have a blown tweeter and want to change it out but not delete the factory amp

[@AyeYoStony321]

I just ran my door speakers directly to my radio then ran the wire to the aftermarket amp I have and sounds loud and crisp

[@adamgorlesky6041]

yeah

[@Hunty49]

I would have bought replacement speakers, desoldered the wires from the old ones and just solder onto the new ones. Just need like for like speakers with same hole pattern and resistances.

[@micahwest5347]

Simply speakers makes a foam replacement kit for the factory speakers so you don’t have to butcher anything and not sacrifice volume.

[@clarktm1275]

Those are very cool. I think those are the ones I want for my Tundra.

[@TW-ck7nc]

Please post more of these 1st Gen Tundra videos!

[@apexmaniac5217]

can you link those speaker adapter plz, man i bought one pair but its too small for the original hole

[@carlmyer5364]

I appreciate that you you didn’t talk about needless crap. Probably could have added about 10 sentences at appropriate times

[@GBall_Vision]

I have a 00 tundra, I just bought all new speakers for it. I have 2 Rockford fosgates for the back and JBL speakers and tweeters for the front. How do you use the old speaker wiring/harness for the new speakers ?

[@mcmillaproject]

Mine was pretty easy. The speakers actually came with a harness adapter all included from crutchfield.com. I guess you could either solder them or purchase similar wire connectors to what is on the adapter.

[@GBall_Vision]

@@mcmillaproject thanks dude. I actually dug In to the back over the weekend and I was able to wire the back 2 directly to the 2 new speakers. I have a second order for the front speakers and tweeters coming from crutchfield also. I’m just not sure how the tweeter will get wired with the new speakers

[@mcmillaproject]

@@GBall_Vision Is your tweeter in your a pillar? It seems that the tweeter usually requires more custom fab. not as easy to plug and play.

[@GBall_Vision]

@@mcmillaproject I think I know what your saying, the tweeter is separate from the speaker unit. The tweeter is in the upper part of the door on the right and the speaker is at the bottom to the right. I want to say the tweeter is directly above the speaker. Maybe 18-24 inches My crutchfield order will be here today, I did order some speaker wire with Crutchfield’s input on how to run the crossover for the tweeter to the speaker. But I’m not sure on how to run the crossover exactly or what that entails

[@mcmillaproject]

@@GBall_Vision How did the install go?

[@DJEVEREDE]

Perfect tutorial. Thanks for creating this.

[@mcmillaproject]

Thanks. It's a cheap and easy replacement that sounds decent. Although now I want a sub...

[@jameslewis1179]

Do you know if the newer access cabs (04-06, or 05-06) have the same door speaker setup as the double cab? I'd love to have my speakers set-up like that in the front doors.

[@ajstrickland8299]

What size speakers in the front and back

[@SenorDennis]

Hey what mounting bracket is that for the rear speaker? Thanks

[@Lunas2525]

It seems like a unnecessary step to cut the old connector to put a pig tail with spade connectors would it not have been the same to just put the spade connectors on the speaker...

[@leomora1244]

What size speakers are those???

[@ruebenb83]

6.5"

[@violencekills]

Great video! Question though - I'm looking to run this setup on mine but Crutchfield warns me that when you cut the wires on the factory harness for that midrange speaker that the new speaker is only pushing bass and no midrange frequencies. Have you noticed any lack in the sound at all on the new front speakers?

[@mcmillaproject]

I would say there is more high end then I would like. I have the stock stereo on max bass to get some kick out of the low end. Really makes me want a sub.

[@gregsz1ful]

You put drivers in an empty door panel, and it sounds like drivers in an empty door panel. Need sound absorbent and waterproof rear covers so sound does not echo around empty door space, producing midrange bloating.

[@johnmoncivais9128]

Is this true? "Replacing the low-impedance factory speaker with a 4-ohm aftermarket speaker will result in lower volume levels. The factory woofer in this location only receives bass frequencies from its amplifier. Replacement speakers will only reproduce bass"

[@phslion]

Yes but is safe.

[@OutNAboutWithBrad]

You lose power to the speaker by running a 4 ohm speaker, which means you lose volume and bass.

[@johnmoncivais9128]

@Brad A is it even worth doing it?

[@beauxtibideaux9919]

Yes and sounds like balls

[@Element62]

What size drill bit were you using to make the last 10mm go in?

[@adamcesari1012]

Good video do you have the part number for the brackets front and rear?

[@mcmillaproject]

Unfortunately no :( it was whatever came with the crutch field kit. It didn’t fit perfectly but was pretty good.

[@calebhumphreys7872]

What year is the Tundra in the video?

[@mcmillaproject]

2005 :)

[@robsnizzle79]

OMG!!!! why on earth did you butcher your wiring for some cheap speakers man? YOU COULD HAVE "RETAINED" the COMPONENT speaker setup very easily and added a 300w XED 6.5 CERWIN VEGA set on EBAY ($60 tops with free shipping), this would have been an easy replacement. Ebay even has the SPEAKER MOUNT ADAPTER PLATE to allow for you to mount the component set in THE STOCK LOCATION. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🥶🥶 Omg this hurts just watching....

[@mcmillaproject]

Luckily the truck no longer exists. 😞

[@robsnizzle79]

@@mcmillaproject caught that video after I watched this one, that sucks man sorry to see. Felt that when I saw it in the weeds....

[@garybrady7245]

IMO anything is better than 17 year old stock speakers

[@robsnizzle79]

@@garybrady7245 uuhhh, not what he installed.... besides for what he installed, I got a better set of 300W 6.5 CERWIN VEGA component speakers off EBAY FOR $45 with free shipping. The adapter plate I bought (off EBAY TOO) BOLTED right up to the rear door location as well (I have the double cab model) and now have a full range 6.5 component speakers in all doors.... sounds frikin awesome. I'm still using the JBL amplified system, rear doors are running with the CROSSOVER purchased w the component set, and THE FRONT DOORS are utilizing the stock wiring harness WITHOUT CROSS-OVER (because it's NOT NEEDED OBVIOUSLY).

[@PizzieNizzie]

@@robsnizzle79 I have the JBL audio system in a Limited 2001 Sequoia. My front speakers are blown. I believe the Tundra and Sequoia JBL systems are basically the same. Do you have a link/model to the Cerwin Vega speakers you purchased and the adapter plate you used?

[@ilovetoyotatrucks]

Just buy the components,the cheapest components will sound better than the most expensive coaxls spend the extra $ on components& sound deadening materials people are so lazy!

[@craigblum1631]

YOU INSTALL WITHOUT HEARING THEM AT THE END THIS VIDEO HAS NO HAPPY ENDING 😕
