I haven't noticed a smell, just that my headlights flicker and i hear an engine hum. Is there a difference between me using the loudness feature vs using it how i have it set right now (with the sub at +6 and eq at +12, +12, +4 for 40, 80, 200)?

I won't damage my sub? I'm prone to breaking things and this is unfamiliar territory for me. Right now i have loudness off, my sub at +6, 100hz, and my eq is 40hz +12, 80hz +12, 200hz +4, and at a volume of ten the bass is perfect. I also left the bass boost at 0. Are these settings fine, or...

I finally got my new head unit installed (Pioneer x5500bhs). The rest of my system is in my sig. The issue I'm having is that i usually listen to low volumes (between 8-12), and I guess that is too low for me to pick up the bass frequencies. I changed my sub crossover to 100hz, and turned...

Crutchfield seems to be stuck in a loop. Each time I select something it goes back a page and resets. I went ahead and ordered the antenna adapter, the dash adapter, and the wiring harness. If it turns out I don't need one of them, I'll return it. But at least this way I'm prepared.

Do I need an antenna adapter?

This: Amazon.com: Metra 70-7301 Radio Wiring Harness for Hyundai/Kia 99-08: Car Electronics After this and the dash install kit, am I all set?

I'm not sure what that is. Do you mean this: Amazon.com: Metra 95-7332 Double DIN Installation Kit for 2007-up Hyundai Elantra Vehicles: Car Electronics

Is there anything else that I need? Like a dash install kit, or any additional wiring, etc? So far I ordered just the head unit and the add-on for steering wheel control. Edit: Since I already have a factory installed nav unit, I don't think I need anything extra, but I'm not really sure about...

Not sure which head unit you ended up going with, but that Pioneer is 4v, not 2v. Amazon has it listed wrong.

It's motorized. I will never use the slot so it might as well be rigid.

Went with this instead: Amazon.com: Pioneer AVH-X5500BHS Multimedia DVD Receiver with 7" Motorized Touchscreen Display: Car Electronics Newer model, cheaper price. Amazon lists it as 2v, which is a typo. It is 4v.

Thanks for the help Mylows! I'm glad you're back, I was worried I'd have to do this one without your help, haha. Amazon warehouse sells the same unit (used) for $40 cheaper, which will cover the cost of the steering wheel add-on. I think I'm pulling the trigger tonight. It has great reviews...

Amazon.com: Pioneer AVH-P4400BH 2-DIN Multimedia DVD Receiver with 7" Widescreen Touch Panel Display, Built-In Bluetooth, and HD Radio™ Tuner: Electronics 4v preout, Still a fair price (but will need to save up a bit more)

At this price point do you think I can find better if I keep looking? What exactly does this pre out mean? I thought my amps powered everything? Edit: Just looked it up. Basically, cleaner sound. I will keep looking, but I dunno if I can find 4v at this price point with these features?

My green is clearly showing, but what do you mean by 4 volt pre out?
