Installing a Sub in my F250 with a Stock Stereo

I received a 12" sub and an amp from a good friend and decided to installed it into my 2016 F250 with a stock stereo, I had to use a line output converter so it would work with my stock stereo.

I was nearly 7 min in before realizing this guy a Genius-Level Troll 6:52

[@westonmeekhof4430]

This was very helpful, thank you!

[@austinbarber9901]

No you don't man good idea to do the new wiring harness but what you could've done is go to your local walmart buy a aux to rca cables and just hook it up to your aux connector on the radio much easier, but your way is better

[@kevindavis4709]

One thing I noticed on KZbin you don't see many videos swapping out car stereos in new vehicles like you see with older cars.

[@SilentBobber91]

That's because it's so damn expensive with new vehicles lol

[@danielleheiget4517]

some newer vehicles dont have that option because the stereo is specific to the vehicle, unlike the single/double din system in older vehicles

[@terrylawrence8976]

Too risky and expensive

[@raulrosales326]

is it worthy adding subwoofer on stock stereo afterall?what are your impressions?i wanna add on my 2017 ram subwoofers but idk if im gonna get a decent or good sound.

[@Benjamminoutdoors]

yes i just wanted more bass, so its been great!

[@fordgarage2746]

So on that line output converter do u just put the wires anywhere in the harness or in specific spots

[@Benjamminoutdoors]

It actually tells you which one to hook it to, I think it was like the both left speakers front and back maybe.

[@DaBuick]

Thanks! I’m putting an air horn in and I couldn’t figure out the firewall penetration. I’m gonna have to be careful so I don’t hit the wire harness.

[@ScottyP5947]

Good video man. Thanks

[@TheRealMarvinLee]

Good video man. Great job brother

[@gustavoacosta215]

Thanks man

[@braydennacol6202]

did you wire up front and rear speakers

[@jarrettford7090]

Great video not exactly the same truck but helped me understand what I needed to do

[@Benjamminoutdoors]

Glad it helped!

[@shineupdetail]

What color was the wire that you spliced the accessories wire into? I’m not sure which one to splice under the dash!

[@Benjamminoutdoors]

I just found one that had power when the key was turned on but off when the key was off

[@hin2ata]

Where did you get the line output converter and how much was it? Do they have this on Amazon?

[@Benjamminoutdoors]

eBay and it was like $15

[@ethanmonsey6799]

Do you think you could help me out with hooking the converter up I can’t get mine to work

[@Benjamminoutdoors]

It should work if you hooked it up the way I showed it!

[@bryceboswell8615]

Where did you find your wire diagram for the back of the radio?

[@Benjamminoutdoors]

just found it on google photos

[@kylereynolds562]

Did you have an issue where after the install you have no sound from the front speakers only the rear? If so how’d you fix that

[@Benjamminoutdoors]

No it’s worked perfect ever since I installed it.

[@justinalvarado5919]

I have this issue, did you find a solution?

[@kevinmontoya7318]

Never run audio cables near power cables I don't know someone told me that in forums and it can be seen everywhere They specify that you gains static

[@markmorrison8477]

Yes you'll end up with humming from the alternator i learned the hard way

[@Benjamminoutdoors]

Yeah I learned that after the fact, but so far haven’t had any issues for the last 3 years the audios been clear!

[@doityourself329]

Good video but where did u hook the remote wire up to.

[@Benjamminoutdoors]

I hook it up in the video to one of the wires that are underneath my dash there’s a little harness that has some tail sticking out of the harness but it really doesn’t matter as long as when you turn the key the wire gets power that’s all you need

[@nickneal6021]

where did you ground it?

[@Benjamminoutdoors]

To the seat mount where it bolts to the cab.

[@TannerBarton61]

Put two 12” in my 2011 Ford F-250 and it drained my freaking battery. Not really sure what to do.

[@Benjamminoutdoors]

Were you using it when the vehicle wasn’t on?

[@They_Live_While_We_Sleep]

Brother, you need a more powerful head unit to even begin to make use of that Amp you just spent money on. You should have done some cursory research prior to doing that. Really love that you’re taking on projects and taking the initiative, but being a wee bit reckless and ultimately getting a weak final result no? Right or wrong ?

[@Benjamminoutdoors]

Well I got all this for free, so that’s why I installed this. It’s been working great since I installed and the bass is plenty loud especially for free🤷🏽‍♂️ this works great for someone on a budget.

[@dirtydieselproductions1452]

what is the name of that song😂

You think I could get your number and you could help me out a little bit connecting the line output converter to the radio

Thankful I don’t care what you think!

[@buford0605]

Hey bud I need the headlight stuff off of that 1500 you built Kawasaki

[@Benjamminoutdoors]

paul kyser most of it was damaged and I had no use for so I threw it away, sorry

[@buford0605]

@@Benjamminoutdoors it was worth a shot just found your video really good job though it turned out nice

[@Benjamminoutdoors]

paul kyser yeah sorry, I do try to keep any parts that I think I maybe able to use sometime down the road.
