@ff00: I do know how to install a radio but I do not do it for a living and I do not do it on a daily or even regular basis. My issue is not with the SWC as running the SWC by itself is quite easy and makes a lot of sense - my issue is with integrating the SWC with the KTP-445U, whether I was...

Everything is aftermarket! I have a new Pioneer headunit, all new speakers, the KTP-445U amp to power the speakers and the aftermarket steering wheel control module.. I'm not using anything in the vehicle sorry if I explained it that way. Alright so here's what I'm going to try.. Wire Pioneer...

So we recently purchased a 2005 Ford Freestyle (cool little wagon) and I decided to upgrade the head unit and speakers. Since we have kids now an external amplifier and subwoofer are out of the question but I'm not content with the power from just a head unit. I purchased an Alpine KTP-445U to...

Well I can't seem to get an answer to this question anywhere so I guess I'll just hook up some components I have and see if they play after wiring in the 12v lines haha.

People have recommended suggestions - have you tried them? Are your RCAs grounded? I'd agree with it being the HU as well since the problem has evolved with little to no change to the set-up but I'd try the suggestions given to you first - check your grounds, especially your RCA ground. If all...

Yessir, I tried the 71-5600 and the Scosche premium kit - both produced no sound so I chopped off the black molex in the dash and tried to hard wire the aftermarket harness to no avail. I no longer have the black molex connector in-tact in the dash so I was wondering if now instead of wiring to...

I'm installing an aftermarket HU into my wife's 1996 Explorer XLT and have had a hell of a time with wiring harnesses and diagrams regarding the speaker wires. I've tried both the premium harness and regular harness. I've also hardwired (cut, spliced & crimped) the head-unit speaker wires to...

Figured I'd throw it out there, I'd do $165 shipped for the HU. If it's something you'll entertain, let me know..

Well, I'm going to be doing an install for the wife soon. She has a '98 Explorer and I've already got the Q-Form kick panel pods.. so I'm going to put the iD CTX6.5CS' in the kick panel.. now I still need speakers for the rear doors.. Seeing as the backseat obviously isn't as important to me...

Interested in the 9885... does your $150 shipped AUX adapter / Ipod input include the USB input or is that a separate cable? Any idea what that part number is if it's a separate cable? Thanks.. EDIT: Also just realized you're in Hartford, I'm in Waterbury.. are the prices any lower since I...

In about 15 days, I'm getting a '95 Olds Cutlass Ciera. The car is in great condition with ~80k miles on it, so I plan on investing a bit into it. My question is, what kind of setups do those with similar speaker specs have? I've always rode around in two door coupes with nothing special, just...

Hm, ordered the PG RSD65C's.. when you say deaden, how much deadening? Like dynamatting the whole door? Clay in certain areas? I already have parts of the door (not the entire thing) dynamatted, which pretty much killed the noise from any other woofer's I've had in there. (I've had BA Comps...

I have a 2000 Cavalier, I let my cousin drive it around for a day and she blew my cheap-o TX5001's (that I had in there for a year.. ). I'm looking to spend about $120, I'm powering the comps with an old DUAL 400W 2 channel amp. I listen to mostly bassy music, although when the fiance drives...

Hmm, just going to buy a smart harness instead.
