Hey man that’s cool like the upgrades keep the videos coming 😎

A tip for this install. You want to keep the remote wire and the power wire separate from the rca cables. Ideally you would like to run the rca cables on the other side of the truck cabin. This will prevent noise from the current going through the power wire.

Great video. The only thing I saw that you missed was you didn't tell the novices about setting the level on the high level adapter. And also, the sound dampening material is really a matter of preference. I do have to point out though, that it does take up space, so it alters you airspace inside the subs enclosure. A better alternative that I have personally used is rubberized undercoating. It deadens the vibrations to the box while not really using us a significant amount of internal air space.

Very informative & professional vid. Just bought 2020 trd off road & this helped me alot. Thank you very much.

Hi Jesse, I stubbled on your channel a few days ago. I ordered the plug n play converter, didn't know one was available. I traded a guy my 10 in kicker comps/ competition box & amp for a Memphis SA110 SPD. Turns out it was a good trade after all. I did not want to drill or remove back panels from my 2017 Tacoma with only 8,000 miles on it. Hooked it up today, not really any louder but definitely fills truck with extra bass and sounds good for all different types of music I listen to. Thank you !!

I know this is an older video but I am doing a very similar install. What did you use to actually mount the amp to the back trim piece?

Is 14mm sockets the new 10mm. That’s a relief I’m running low on 10mm sockets

I want to use a 5 channel amp so I can add punch to my other kicker speakers that I installed (2x 6x9 front, 2x 6.5 rear) thinking of using the Planet Audio AC1800.5. Is there a 5 channel version of the plug and play line output converter you used for this mono application? Also thinking of using a Audio Control LCTi to eliminate base drop-off at higher volumes. Do you think this is necessary or is a good idea? Thanks, Jesse. Your videos are killer!!!

Polyfill essentially slows down the air waves in the box, making the box seem larger. Great trick on these smaller enclosures.
