Thank you for making this video. I am going to upgrade my wife Sequoia with the equipment shown and I will use your links for my purchases. I need to do a backup camera as well.

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

We didn't do a camera on this install, but we have lots of camera videos on our channel to help you through the install.

Great vid!! Do you have one on installing a back up cam to this unit?

Very professional

Thank you very much

[@RamazansCreed23]

Instead of soldering, can heat shrink splice connectors be used to connect the wires?

[@hammerman811]

Piece of cake. Thank you very much for instructional part of it.

[@alexcartwright6625]

After installing a Kenwood head unit, the back of my unit is getting pretty hot. Anything I should look out for?

I was wondering on the link for the 2005 wiring harness link doesn’t seem to work

[@JJ-gc8du]

Just the info I was looking for. Amazon Q & A confirms that this doesn't support SiriusXM satellite radio. Do you agree with that? Is there any way, that you know of, to get SiriusXM?

[@ZacharySanchez90]

I have a 2005 Sequoia with JBL steering wheel controls. Just purchased the SWRTY-61J to install a Dual 10.1 inch. Was reviewing the crux manual and it looks like it doesn’t have the RCA output connections to the radio; rather, it has wires to connect to the speaker wires for the radio harness. Does this matter? I haven’t gotten it yet so maybe they’re on there? Thank you in advance!

[@JetteJ3T1]

Does the 2005 model Sequoia require the 70-8113? Mine has the JBL audio.

[@user-oe9yq5zg3y]

I purchased the 70-8113 harness and it has no orange wire. My radio has an orange wire ???

[@Yotadaily]

Dose this work for a 2002 sequoia

[@kikerivera1779]

That radio support a reverse camera?

[@mariovelazquez2504]

Is you blue and white from the harness to turn on factory amp? My radio does not have a white and blue wire but a solid blue amp turn on , should I connect blue/white from Harness to solid blue on radio?

[@sftbalnerd]

First of all, thank you for a great video. Secondly, I have a bit of a complicated question. I’m adding steering wheel controls to my mom’s 2004 Sequoia with JBL speakers when I replace her head unit. Does that mean I should use Metra 70-8113 in combination with PAC C4RAD? Also, the link you have for PAC C4RAD in the description shows out of stock. It does appear that PAC SWI-RC-1 will work for me (unless I’m misunderstanding something.) At any rate, if you have a link for that product that you’d like to provide me with, I’d be glad to use your link so that you get credit for my purchase. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide!

[@jeffsalzwedel2154]

My Sequoia power antenna goes up when I turn the car on. But when I have the vehicle running and I switch the radio off, it doesn’t go back down. Do you have an idea why it does this? Thanks

[@MarsellusWallace2024]

Great vid!!! But for future reference, the expression is “At this point IN time” not OF time 😂

[@alexblaze8878]

It’s one of those redundant and unnecessary phrases. The proper wording should be either “at this point” OR “at this time”. “At this point in time” is never needed and is usually heard from people trying to sound smart. In a college course for concise writing it’s one of the phrases we were taught never to use along with the overuse of “that” which can usually be omitted to improve sentence flow without affecting meaning, re: “ She told John that she had to cancel their date” is better written as “She told John she had to cancel their date”

[@nickwebb1055]

Would you recommend connecting the speaker wires and bypassing the stock amp if you were installing a subwoofer?

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

A few variables there for sure - just depends on the setup. In most circumstances, based on the age of the amp, you would benefit bypassing the factory amp for both audio quality and power. Regardless if you bypass the stock amp or not, yo can always add your own bass amp and sub.

[@watermight]

How did you add the usb connection?

[@slim3time]

Any suggestions for a 2002 Sequoia? What is different? My JBL head unit looks the same.

[@ferchoelmichoacano]

Good question! But no answer creator. Good luck!

[@AYFxG]

Is it just me or doesn’t the linkfor the non jbl wires not plug into factory tundra radio plugs

[@neutronj1560]

I follow your instructions, everything works but my top speaker by doors are having static issues. I’m thinking it’s bad RCA connector, when I unplug the rca connector, static dies off. Anything would help at this time.

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

It may be a bad harness, or radio. you can also try a ground loop isolator.

[@eddiemaggert7805]

The wire harness is not exactly the same as the one I purchased with the same model number from best buy. Some of the wires are not the same. Also the antenna he only mentioned one which you have two antennas that plug in on the original JBL stereo.

[@johnnym2008]

Hopefully someone can help me I’m desperate!! So I followed the instructions to the letter but I have NO SOUND. Nothing. I’ve double, triple, quadruple checked my connections. Everything seems legit. I have a 06 Sequoia with JBL system. Anybody have any suggestions on what it could be ?

[@DanielBrown-lg6cn]

What wiring harness am I supposed to use if I have a double DIN pioneer avh 280bt on a 2005 Toyota Sequoia with JBL but no steering wheel controls

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

I would use the Axxess Metra TYTO-01 harness: amzn.to/4caKWZs

[@louisaven889]

2 questions. 1. If my aftermarket radio does not have all rca’s for speakers do I have to tap into some wires? 2. After installing I get static noise coming from speakers, any fix on this?

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

A few variables there, we can probably help you out in more detail if you send us a message on facebook.

[@nickhoffman1743]

Do these RCAs act as a "bypass" for the factory JBL amp? Asking because im diving into my 03 sequoias audio upgrades and am noticing the PO removed the factory JBL amp. Am i correct in thinking the new Pioneer HU i have will amplify each speaker with its own built in amp? Just hoping i dont have to buy a used jbl amp to make this work

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

No, this specific harness doesn’t replace the OEM amp. There is one available, but what we used retains all factory features, including the amp.

[@emmanelbawa4711]

Great video Bud, just a quick question. My radio 2007 sequoia keeps making a very loud sound noise intact , some amateurs guess it’s the amplifier. What do you think

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

Without seeing it in person, hard to tell. Most likely the culprit is the factory JBL amp if equipped.

[@wilsonashirley]

My JBL system on my 2003 Sequoia has two connectors coming from the internal harness. What type of adapter is that?

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

We have JBL harnesses linked in the description. One usually is for the main JBL connection, the other is for steering wheel controls.

[@HuyNguyen-cw7es]

Followed the video instructions, installed the new 10.1" unit in my 2003 sequoia w/JBL. The only problem i have is the volume too loud even at level #1 (#0 is mute). I did played around with all the amp power setting and sound setting but its didnt change anything. Do you have any tips for this issue?

[@schaudhry15459]

I know this is old but did you ever figure out the volume? Also do you have steering wheel controls or no?

Hey, I work at Toyota dealership and you have to be careful of parasitic drain. Well I would honestly suggest is just replacing them with new JBL speakers from a modern vehicle as basically all Toyotas you’ll just use JBL.

[@jessicafree7112]

Do you have a radio replacement recommendation that also includes a back up camera?

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

For this specific vehicle? In most circumstances, we recommend brands like Pioneer, Alpine, Sony, Kenwood, etc. Radio recommendation: amzn.to/3pAFW9Z Backup Camera Recommendation: amzn.to/3csfJn3

How many inches is the screen? And Can I use a 10.1 inches for my 2003 toyota seqoia?

[@Rhenjeezy_408]

You can use a 10.1 inch on your Sequoia! I actually just installed one on my 04 Sequoia. You'll need Metra harness 70-8113, 70-8114, and Axxess Converter AX-MLOC745 if you have the JBL with amp system.

[@froman231]

[@classicb34st71]

Does it matter if it's a 6.5in double din or 7in?

Screen size is irrelevant with brand name units. It's the chassis size - This works with any double din sized chassis, regardless of screen size.

I have a 2001 Sequoia and I was told by the installer that I need a special module for my new stereo to work right. He says it's because of the JBL amp. Is that bullshit? He wants $120 for the module and says i won't have any sound without it.

@connorderivan8350 I don't, but I bought it at Best Buy. They ordered it for me, and it came with the wiring adapter kit. It had that extra little port for the mini antenna looking plug. It was $130 and took 3 days to get to me.
