4runner intall...opinions

[jblayz1 10+ year member]

I'm planning an install on a 4runner with a friend of mine. she wants to keep it reasonably priced yet good SQ. she also prefers a double DIN dvd HU.

HU: pioneer maybe?

Front: PG RSd comps 6.5

Rear: PG RSd 6.5's

amp: JL 300/4

as far as the sub, she has a 10" audibahn in a sealed box powered by an older Boss 2/3/4 channel 600 watt.

suggestions....

First off drop the rear fill and 300/4. Get another decently priced 4ch. (memphis, kicker, etc.), then take the money from that and upgrade the sub and sub amp and the front comps.

Decent 2-4ch. amps.

Both very good amps and they're both cheaper than the JL.

Comps, i really dont know a whole lot in this area, I would recommend boston, MB quart, focal etc.

Sub.

My stock JBL sounds better than most aftermarket ive heard,

it actually beat JimJ at an SQ contest //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif only thing is the substage is lacking for a basshead like me.

when you get the indash installed lets see some pics, im gonna be doing an install in mine, but im not gonna use a kit b/c i hate the look of kits, im gonna mold my own inside of a broken stock unit //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

it's an SR5. i don't know if it comes with the JBL package. if it does, leave them in and add an amp? really?

The stock speaker location in the front sucks, I built kick pods and they sounded great. Also you want to keep the reAR fill, I had none and ended up doing some cheap speakers in the back, it filled the suv more.

the 05 location isnt bad at all, tweeters on top of the door and 6x9 near the bottom with a center channel in themiddle
