Install a Sound Bar on your Wrangler TJ or YJ

[@Chenchascarmen]

I got the same for my 94 YJ nice sound and very easy to install !!!

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

Yes it is, I still have it installed and no issues

[@jorgequimbaya2872]

I just purchased this speaker bar not too long ago and was wondering if you could shed some light on exactly you connect everything in completely new at this wiring stuff. Thank you in advanced!

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

If your using the same radio your going to have to take it out, find the speaker wires and connect to them. If you watch the video there are wires that run on the drivers side floor board which go along side to the center bar, all jeeps have them, connect the other wire there.

[@jorgequimbaya2872]

@@FAFOWeekendAdventures so ideally I just have to tap into the radio wiring harness?

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

@@jorgequimbaya2872 correct, but if you follow the video there is a wire I think it's yellow or green that runs along the driver's side you will also need to use

[@freespirittransport5139]

I just opened the original speaker hole on the original padded bar, and installed 150 watt, 6.5" Polk audio marine grade speakers in mine. Not trusting any no name speaker to sound good!! Plus I kept the original padding!!

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

@@freespirittransport5139 I was thinking of doing the same thing, how does it sound?

[@freespirittransport5139]

@FAFOWeekendAdventures Backed by an old school Fosgate 100a 2 channel amp. They sound fantastic! Just make sure to cut back enough so your speaker terminls do not contact any metal.

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

@freespirittransport5139 Thanks

[@trev119]

Thanks for the video helps a lot.

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

Anytime, please subscribe to my channel and like the video. I'll be posting a new segment on Overlanding and camping, just got a travel trailer and overland rig. Thank you

[@James-sz7ss]

Im doing the same. I cant figure out the color meaning on the factory colors?

[@yourejustintim]

Hey, thanks for the video. I came here for the sound bar but notice we have same jeep/color. What kinda seat covers do you have?

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

Nice, here is the link for the seat covers, hopefully you subscribed to my channel I'll be posting other updates made to the jeep. www.4wheelparts.com/p/smittybilt-neoprene-front-and-rear-seat-cover-kit-black-tan-471225/_/R-DSBP-471225

[@yourejustintim]

@@FAFOWeekendAdventures thanks so much. Been on the hunt for a good cover for a while. They fit well? How do you like them. Installing sound bar as I text....

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

@@yourejustintim I love the way they fit and look, can't tell that they are covers. Good luck with the speaker install let me know how it goes.

[@jacoley]

You could have used a soldering gun and melted a small hole just for the screws. This would prevent the fabric from tearing.

[@hammudles]

Hi! Is the sound bar wired to the right and left rear speaker wires from the head unit?? Is there a harness that connects these wires to the sound bar?? I have no experience and am trying to figure this out. I would really appreciate your input, thanks!!

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

Yes the speakers come with a harness that connects the right and left speakers to the head unit. It's an easy install the wires also come labeled. Any other questions just ask.

[@hammudles]

@@FAFOWeekendAdventures Thank you so much!! I haven't bought the sound bar yet, but I plan to in the next few weeks. Is it possible to connect the sound bar to the head unit, without removing the head unit?? Also, is there another wire for the light?? Where does that connect to in the car??

[@bearcat283]

Are you still satisfied with sound and what brand or model is this box..thanks

[@bearcat283]

Sorry..I just noticed you already posted the model. Thanks, and are you still happy with ?

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

I'm very satisfied with the sound. The site and info of the box is here. www.quadratec.com/products/14118_000_07.htm

[@markkiger5219]

Thanks for posting this. My question is with this bar do you completely eliminate all the other (factory) speakers, ie the ones in the dash and the sub in the center console or are those still connected as well?

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

Hello Mark, all of my factory speakers have been upgraded and are still in place.

[@lukesmith9524]

@@FAFOWeekendAdventures For the ones in the dash which speakers did you get

[@ncstarrider]

how does it sound and what brand

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

Sounds good even after all this time. Heres the link of the one I purchased. www.quadratec.com/products/14118_000_07.htm

[@1911nutJMB]

What was your solution to the roll bar padding?

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

I just cut them

[@yourejustintim]

I had the same problem with screws to connect sound bar. My other problem is connection to amp

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

Your probably going to have to run additional cables from the stock cables to run the amp

[@yourejustintim]

@@FAFOWeekendAdventures i pulled the power from the harness that came with sound bar and ran it separately.

[@pablitoramos10]

Does anyone know how to replace them light bulbs? Mine are gone😢😢

[@brendenserna480]

Where’d you get that double din center trim? Been trying to find one for my 97 with the early HVAC panel

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

I purchased it at Crutchfield.com or you can also get it on amazon - www.amazon.com/Aftermarket-Double-Install-Wrangler-1997-2002/dp/B01BP68GBC/ref=sr_1_5?crid=2CSCJMCBLCTNF&dchild=1&keywords=jeep+cherokee+double+din+radio+install+kit+97-01&qid=1612575087&sprefix=97+jeep+double+din%2Caps%2C170&sr=8-5

[@hotrod6101]

Did you notice a big difference between this and the factory?

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

I only had front speakers, I added the sound bar and changed the front speakers and noticed a big difference

[@iliveindetroit1]

get rid of the padding altogether.looks cleaner that way

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

Thanks

[@williamsteiner5741]

what brand is this if i may ask

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

Of course, you can ask, the brand is: Vertically Driven Products 792501 Hi Fidelity 6 Speaker Overhead Soundbar in Textured Black for 87-02 Jeep Wrangler YJ & TJ And the link is below: www.quadratec.com/products/14118_000_07.htm

Out of stock

[@MrSteelballer]

[@mikemaybe5999]

Those speakers are trash lol

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

They might be, but it's better then nothing, and so far so good.

[@mikemaybe5999]

@@FAFOWeekendAdventures they aren’t that horrible but for the price they charged I wanted much louder I replaced all mine with alpine had to sand a hole to fit

[@FAFOWeekendAdventures]

@@mikemaybe5999 I tried to change the speakers also and noticed that the hole had to be widened so I left it alone, just going to buy a better bar down the road
