Added tip. Instead of unscrewing the screws holding the door handle, just pop out the two cables .

[@dalegallegos937]

Great video! I did everything and subs 2 amps all plug n play and never removed the head unit, all the wiring you need is under the passenger seat

[@tractordirt5167]

Excellent…simple and clear!

[@twoalward9166]

Heads up -- the factory speakers work as brackets. Just cut the basket and cone out and mount your new 6x9 speakers right onto them. That wiring suggests that the tweeter and midbass are both 4ohm speakers and wired like that present a 2ohm load to the amplifier. There is no such thing as "essentially a pass-thru". Both loads are presented on the same output channel. This is important because if someone buys 2ohm speakers and installs like that, many amps will go into protect mode.

I have a 2018 non JBL, I’m adding new speakers, aftermarket amp, subwoofer, keeping stock head unit and using the Tacotunes Plug n play harness that plugs in at the stock amplifier harness located underneath the front passenger seat. Will my stock speaker wiring be enough for the new speakers, or should I run new wire to them? If so, do I just run the new wires from the speaker to the aftermarket amp? Or does the wiring need to go to the back of the head unit?

[@stevestrapac3056]

Great video! Super informative and helpful. My question as a newbie is, can I upgrade my tundra door speakers before the amp? Or does the amp go first? Also, is the sound deadening material available in the links? Do you have other videos detailing it?

[@mikeacuna6077]

I don't think the factory amp has enough power to run after market speakers in the doors. With my 2015, I went with Taco Tunes plug and play 5 channel amp, installed Polk Audio separates in all 4 doors (mid bass and separate tweeter with a crossover) a Rockford loaded 10 inch sub and it sounds great. I just recently eliminated my center dash speaker and went with Kicker 3.5 2-ways in the corners. My understanding is the stock radio powers the dash speakers.

Where are all the links to the items used in this installation?

[@DarealAGee]

What was it that you put in the door for the mid range 6x9s?

[@noahodell5817]

Hey Provo! (And any other sound guru who knows the answer) Quick question for you. I’m getting JBL 605 csq speakers that have an external crossover. How do I incorporate the factory tweeter harness so I don’t lose midrange?? Thank you!

[@26outrage]

This is great - do you guys have a simple solution for the front center speaker?... maybe a small sub?

[@JoseCruz-er6fo]

Remove it. It’s garbage and not a true center output

[@Pilkanozna4]

@ProvoBeastAudio. I was told if I change the side door speakers, and new amp that I will lose the center dash speaker, is this true?

[@grimeshpatel7304]

How do the Alpine”s sound. I’m sure better than the stock. Would you recommend them? Do they have a good sound quality bass mid high. I will be using a JL Audio 400/4. If not any other 6x9 and 6.5”s you can recommend. Ps:// People are raving about Skar any thoughts. Thank You 2020 Tundra SR5 Crewmax.

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

Love the alpines. Highly recommended. Skar is fine too but alpine is a better build quality.

[@rg6829]

How are the tweeters amplified it the are getting signal from the head unit not the amp?

[@TheReeper602]

Did you have to bypass the factory amp?

[@elbaron51]

Hi what about the center speaker on the dash did you eliminate it

[@mikeacuna6077]

I did

[@shill3541]

Is there a harness for the front top speakers instead of cutting and splicing

[@mikeacuna6077]

NO

[@WCS-xp9lu]

Yes, there is a harness for the top dash speakers on amazon made by red wolf. It won't work for the center dash speaker though, that's a weird speaker & it messes up the sound stage, just disconnect it.

[@BrandoCG]

Hello. Can you help me out. I have a 2017 4.6l v8 tundra and I’m looking to do a speaker swap with just using the adapter plug ins but when I click on the link it says it does not fit my 2017 tundra. Is this true or would I need to look for different adapters? Please help I need to get rid of these nasty stock speakers 😊

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

Amazon's fit guide is garbage. Parts listed will work for this gen tundra fine.

[@rg6829]

How is the tweeter getting power now? I thought it was powered by the head unit. But you just swapped it out. Confused here 😅

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

It's still powered by the radio and the midbass would be powered by the stock amp under the seat. No change in the wiring. Truth is however, we added a 4 channel amp to power them anyways (and that video is linked in the description).

[@rg6829]

@@ProvoBeastAudio thx for the reply. But how are the new tweeters being powered by the new amp if they are still wired to the head unit?

[@davidbarajas7430]

Where can I buy everything I need and how do I order it to bring everything I need?

[@miguelcruz4658]

Is this the same for the 2008 tundra?

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

Well the 08 is a previous generation, so it won't be identical, but the technique will be similar.

[@yellowfin1962]

Got a question, are you using the factory radio?

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

Yes see all the videos in the description

[@yellowfin1962]

Next question. My 2020 Tundra does not have the JBL system. What should I do with the center dash speaker?

[@adamr7666]

I tried to put Kicker CS 6x9s and they didn’t fit

[@kwmulligan]

They have to be shallow 6x9's for this reason, I went with 6 3/4 for the fronts

[@shill3541]

I believe less than 3'
