  1. Adding an Aftermarket Amp(s)

    I ran all new wiring just as best practice. Depending on your amps output per channel, the factory wire may be fine.
  2. Adding an Aftermarket Amp(s)

    I ended up getting the JL Audio VX800/8i (internal DSP) - great 800w, 8 channel amp to run dash, knee, and soundbar with 2 channels left to add 2 additional speakers to the rear roll bar above the tub. I used the PAC AmpPRO AP4-CH41 (R.2) then fed the JL amp along with the subwoofer amp...
  3. Audio System Aftermarket Upgrade

    Did they make the custom spacer between your sub and enclosure? If so, can I get the contact info so I can get one made?
  4. Adding an Aftermarket Amp(s)

    Be sure to use ferrules, heat shrink, etc. Try to mitigate any potential issues you could have in the future. I just finished my audio install last weekend on my 2021 JLU. Ran all new wiring, replaced dash, knee, soundbar, and sub. Dual amps - JL VX800/8i for the speakers (I plan on adding 2...
  5. Rear Speaker Pods for JLU rear roll bars

    They make roll bar pods for JK but I haven’t seen any for the JL. Has anyone see these? Example of the JK...
  6. Proximity door locks retrofit install (instructions, parts, links) on JL Wrangler

    Nope. This is the route I took. I'll add tailgate next.
  7. Proximity door locks retrofit install (instructions, parts, links) on JL Wrangler

    Did my install on driver side door only today - took about 1.5 hours. 2 minutes to set on my Tazer Mini and BAM - works perfect. I traded in a Overland Cherokee for this Wrangler and this is the only feature I truly missed. I couldn’t have given myself a better father day gift “from my kids”…. :)
  8. Proximity door locks retrofit install (instructions, parts, links) on JL Wrangler

    I ordered the kit but the caps look to be the same as I had without proximity. Can anyone confirm?
  9. Accidental audio improvement with dash speakers and Alpine system

    Sent you a PM. Give me a call and I’ll walk you through this. I don’t have the patience to type it up on my phone.
  10. Accidental audio improvement with dash speakers and Alpine system

    Just for clarification, a high pass filter IS a crossover. https://jlaudio.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/206556458-Understanding-Crossovers?mobile_site=true The point, regardless of terminology, is solely to allow a specific range in OR filter frequencies out. That said, I figured that since...
  11. Accidental audio improvement with dash speakers and Alpine system

    I have the 2.0T. As for the active noise cancelling - are you referring to the autovolume adjust? If so, I turned that off when I got the vehicle.
  12. Accidental audio improvement with dash speakers and Alpine system

    Here is what my sound bar now looks like. As for the crossover -I only installed them in case the frequency limitation was different between the factory and aftermarket speakers - probably wasn't necessary but it only took a few minutes - the instructions come with your components - I bought...
  13. Accidental audio improvement with dash speakers and Alpine system

    It’s just screws…. A lot of them. The dash does not need to be removed. HVAC console, stereo bezel, glove box, dash pad, etc. took me about 4 hours from start to finish while watching a YouTube video on how to do it.
  14. Accidental audio improvement with dash speakers and Alpine system

    Yes, the components in the sound bar sound amazing with the factory alpine amp. Has to be a component setup because the factory alpine has components in the speakerbar already. If you'd like me to snap a picture, I'd be more than happy to go out and get one but as I stated previously - the sound...
  15. Proximity door locks retrofit install (instructions, parts, links) on JL Wrangler

    If he doesn’t want it I will take it.
  16. Proximity door locks retrofit install (instructions, parts, links) on JL Wrangler

    Just pulled it up. Version 11.2.7 - Dated 5/17/2021 - Good call. Thanks again. Now I feel a bit less premature for ordering https://www.mopargenuineparts.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=PSVENTRYJTJLDRV Manual has been updated as well it seems:
  17. Proximity door locks retrofit install (instructions, parts, links) on JL Wrangler

    Thanks. I have a tazer jl mini but haven’t seen that as an option. I’ll see if there’s a firmware update for it to allow for it. My dealer is good about working with me as I’ve purchased multiple vehicles from them but I’d prefer to do it myself with the Tazer if it’s an option. thanks again!
  18. Accidental audio improvement with dash speakers and Alpine system

    I only replaced the speakers and the alpine amp is great with the speakers I mentioned. As for the install - the route I went with the sound bar was a pain in the ass as I cut out room for 6.5 in speakers using a kit off Crutchfield using a sawzaw. The top dash speakers were a breeze. Now for...
