I’m not 100% sure. I believe he connected to the driver’s side kick panel speaker based on how he had the Bronco trim pulled apart and where he ran the power/wires for the sub woofer. I’ve asked him to confirm but he hasn’t yet. The kick panels are definitely the speakers that drive the bass other than the subwoofer. Don’t use the back pods because those are clearly tuned down significantly
Crutchfield told me this would not fit in the rear! I was disappointed so I didn't buy the Pioneer they recommended yet. I am waiting on JL audio to make custom Sub box like they do for Jeep and Mustang. What connection harness did you use?
Did Best Buy do the install, since that's where you got the parts? What was the install price if you don't mind?
No, I had a local shop do the installation. BB had a long wait and the local shop was available the same week. He only did the two kick panel speakers and the sub. The two front speakers and the pods were really easy so I did them myself. When I broke the first clip off my kick panel I through in the towel. He charged $225 for the install of the three speakers.
I have thought about it, but not sure how well it will come across. For me, the $800 investment (and a few hours of my time) is very much worth it. Now, whether I have the top up or down the sound is great. To be honest, I’ve not yet sat in the back to see how it sounds with the top down.
hmmm! you must have pushed the harness real hard to get into the Bronco portion. The pins are wider than the Bronco side will try again tomorrow.
yes, this is the link
Interesting. It didn’t seem too difficult to plug in for me. It definitely fit weird but I didn’t feel like I really had to mash them in or tweak the pins. I got my Bronco in late November. I can’t imagine them changing the design.
Thanks for the tip!
I just filled video on my iPhone and it really doesn’t capture the sound difference. I even tried it with sub on and off and you can’t tell in my low tech videos, but it’s a huge difference in person.
I am moving the sub from my last Ford Vehicle over to the Bronco. It is a self enclosed box from Rockford Fosgate. Punch is the model. 12 inch. It takes a lot of space but can be quickly removed if you need the space. I wired it with a turn dial that can be controlled from the drivers seat. It looks like overkill but not expensive and easy to remove when you need the space.
You don’t have to have that at all and or could put it somewhere else/hide it better. I like it because it allows me to turn the base up/down depending on the type of music I’m listening to. If you don’t have it, then you adjust via the screen only.
Yeah they told me the same thing but I bought them from there anyway based on knowledge form this forum. They fit fine but your grills will bulge out slightly in the center since the tweeter will touch them. Sound good!
