Freaking amazing. Wish car companies would stop putting in these monstrously large center consoles that remove all right knee and leg room. Nice work.

Great, straightforward video. I personally love the center console, but I love my people too, and it's nice having that extra seat in a pinch. Thinking of doing this to a Suburban to make it a 9-seater.

wow. this entire time I thought you needed a special sticker to do that job.

If you had Factory Bose in the truck you would of course have to put the BOSE amp and SubWoofer else where, the amp could be hidden under the dash but the sub would be lost, you can infact bypass the stock AMP, you would need to take wires from the radio, run 8 wires, 1 for + 1 for - of each of your door speakers, like FRONT LEFT - , REAR RIGHT +, then on the wiring harness in the center console, where the amp is, take the wires leading into the amp on the bigger of the 2 connectors, there are certain colored wires you must cut and then connect to your wires from the radio, look up the Diagram from for vehicle or PM me your vehicle and ill send you a list of the wires to cut, but you need to connect the end of the wires that is running AWAY from the amp, not into the amp in order to bypass the amp, I did the amp bypass on my 04.5 LLY duramax because my bose amp gave out of me. My aftermarket Headunit works perfect, i can adjust the EQ of each door speaker properly, i wired the stock Bose Subwoofer also so it works properly, as well as added in a aftermarket amp for my 2 10' subs in the rear that i added behind the rear seats.

We got rid of the center console in my pickup, and replaced it with a jump seat. But now we are at a loss as to what to do with the amp and sub just sitting on the center hump. We replaced the head unit with an aftermarket. Now the radio sounds like crap...pretty much like its underwater. I'm thinking my amp is no longer working. But wanting to get rid of it and put in something different. Where do I go from here? Any help would be appreciated!

I should have read the comments. It was a pain finding space for my amp and the controller for the back speakers. I managed to make it all fit. I cut out the left side of the glove box to make room for the controller so I could still have back speakers. I did figure out what wires work for the cigarette lighters so I did not need the big wiring harness but then needed it anyway. Oh and the doors alarms also don't work for some reason. I sure hope I like the jumper seat.
