The audio store I went to said I should run an LC2i along with AC-LGD. I am a little lost here and looking for advice: I hand sanded with a little piece of sandpaper to ensure paint was removed around the grounding location.Īmp power wire ran through kick panels on passenger side, and now entering the rear of the cabin at the back wallĪmp ground wire set up with rear fabric simply peeled back (not cut yet) Hopefully this works (it sees a lot of people use this location). Next I secured my grounding wire to the bolt in the rear wall that appears to already be a grounding location. I also decided to solder each end of the amp wire that enters into the fuse holder, just so it was clean and no stray strands of wire.ĭisassembled this piece below the glove box (simply pulls "down" with the small tabs that keep it in placeĪnother view of amp power wire location entering the cab I also ran loom around the amp wire in the engine compartment and taped that closed with electrical tape. I screwed the Amp wire fuse into the battery holder plastic. Running of the amp wire with loom, Secured fuse to the battery bracket/tray This is the passenger side behind the fuse box. Tried the nipple on the "electrical" circular grommet but it was no cooperating, so elected to use the small "unused" oval grommet to the right. I ran the (+) cable through the trim along the passenger side floor and to the rear of the cab. For now I have electrical taped the hole I made in the large circle grommet that is not being used, and will fill that with caulk shortly. I finally disassembled the entire battery case and holder and removed that, and was able to get my arm under the fuse box and use trim panel removal tools to push the grommet and seal it in its original place. Getting the oval grommet back in to the firewall was a major pain and took probably an hour to do it right (and a lot of sweat and cursing). I removed the grommet, drilled a hole and fed the cable through. This oval grommet was unused and seems to work perfect, the wire runs down the wheel well and enters the cab through a pre-cut circular hole used for mounting a factory device. I tried to get through the nipple on that circular grommet but was having a tough time. This is NEXT to the large circular electronics grommet that most people use.

Find the parts you need to upgrade your stereo, including radio installation kits, wiring adapters, and replacement car stereos to fit most vehicles.Hi all, I am upgrading my 2018 Lariat with the standard stereo system (non-B&O) to include an amplifier, 10" Sub Woofer, and would like to run amp power to the front door speakers. For more information on choosing the right radio for your vehicle, or tips on installing your new aftermarket radio with a car radio installation kit, take a look at our helpful article. These kits are specifically designed to fit your application, and in some cases, may fill gaps with a plate or a shelf that you can use for storage. Car stereo installation kits include the hardware needed to mount an aftermarket radio in your factory dash securely, leaving no empty space around it and ensuring a snug, secure fit. Factory-original radios also often take up a larger amount of space on the dash, which means attempting to install a replacement stereo without a dash adapter kit could leave you with gaps, poor fitment, and looseness. This means that move single- or double-DIN stereo brackets will fit any other single- or double-DIN radio, and are the basis for the size of the opening in the radio installation kit. ![]() In most cases, factory-built radios are shaped and secured differently than aftermarket radios, which utilize a universal bracket based on their size. ![]() When you decide it's time to upgrade your factory radio, car stereo installation kits are recommended for a proper fit in the dash or control panel. ![]()
