New wiring coming soon from www.ceAutoElectricSupply.com
My old buddy Rob, known him for 30 years, came by and said his fuses kept blowing..and asked if i had a "40 amp" for him. I took one look at his system and knew i had to do something. I fixed him up and got him on the road. I told him, when i have time, i will go through and fix all this stuff for you. It's BAD. REAL Bad. In a funny way. I guess he got it mostly like this. I don't know who is responsible for the bucket o' bass but i HAD to share this with you guys. Make sure to subscribe and hit like if you think i should hook Rob up proper and fix this for him.

i posted a lot of what i do LIVE on Instagram (almost) Daily. Join me at instagram.com/meade916 and catch the feed long before it hit's youtube! thanks!
meade916 are you going to have Distortion Detectors in stock soon? They’re all out of stock on the site.
yes.
meade916 Do you have a time frame on when? Just so I know so I can put my order in as soon as they’re available.
I commented a couple videos back about how this project was lagging, but I take it all back. You are going way beyond what was required of this truck, and it shows just how genuine you are as a person by hooking your friend up using your own expenses. SMD does not fuck around.
I was about to be like cmon steve step it up an get this shit done then you said you where paying personally out of pocket an those incriminator amps cost a good amount alone so i see now why its taking a little bit i will admit you humbled me mr meade an i remembered why your my favorite car audio guy because your so giving but never look for praise within your kindness brother
Very nice man killer equipment its gonna beat. As for the people that are complaining about the videos not coming fast enough you all step off. This man is using his own time, money, shop, and expertise to build his friend a pro system. He has a business to run as well parts and equipment to make so know what your talking about before you speak. Awesome job Steve paying it forward keep up the astonishing work dude.
thanks Randall bro
meade916 no worries man I enjoy the videos.
Wish it was easier to find someone in every metro as dedicated to quality installs as this.
Those door panels were made straight from love bro. I appreciate you featuring our work on your vids boss!
I think that it is excellent to see videos like this. People need to see the step-by-step and piece by piece working and upgrades that have been done. It makes you respect and appreciate the work that goes into this when it is done correctly like this.
XS, Alpine, Mechman, Incriminator, B2 and DC...hell of an equipment list!
So stoked to watch this. Helping out a buddy regardless if he drives a bucket. Hard to fit in all this work AND do what you do on a daily
I hope the owner of this truck has a decent security system on it or he's planning to do so because when this is done it's going to have serious bucks on car audio.
Always a pleasure to see you work, Steve!
I like how the alternator is sitting on top of the motor to make the big three be easier to work with sometimes
Most newer trucks and SUV's usually aren't that bad unless it's a Honda front wheel drive vehicle. Then it is a little bit of a pain in the ass.
Even insulated the wires near the compressor lines!! Great job Steve no attention spared to details
Excessively nice wiring. I'm of the belief that wiring is the foundation of any setup. Good grounds, reliable and durable materials and connections, headroom. This is where a good install starts, and without it, it's not a good install. It's not a show truck, but that's not why the wiring is right. It has to be right, regardless of who sees it. Good idea on the extra wiring for accessories. This guy obviously is the sort to need the, and giving him a safe, reliable place to get power without wrecking the necessary connections at the battery is smart thinking for him and for you as the guy who'll have to fix it later if it gets messed up.
nothin but respect for this build, most friends wouldn't go outta their way, for their boy, for anything these days.
Respect
Steve does some amazing work! No short cuts no half assing of any kind, not even the slightest! I’ve been doing my own car audio for years now, and I will say Steve has inspired a lot of how I do thing to this day! I’ve gone 3 different routes with the system in my truck in the past year and a half. 1st was 2 12” Sony xplods and a kenwood 1500watt amp, 2nd was 3 12” Sony xplods, and a Logic 2000watt amp, 3rd was a 15” Kicker CVR and a Power Acoustik Razor 1500watt amp. Currently in the making is my 4th using 2 15” Q-Power subs, in a slot port Q-Bomb box, with each sub having its own Power Acoustik Razor 1500watt amp and a 500k Farad Cap!
You're living my dream of installing car audio. After college I'll be building boxes and all the other goodies in no time. You're awesome Steve. 💯👌
Such a clean setup. Wiring is on point. I dig those cable cutters and the SMD distribution blocks!
Nothing less than professionalism, love the video cant wait to see the finally!
Steve's shop music is always on point! Tired of hearing the same country station everyday where I work.
John Graves I feel bad for you.
SOOOOO much better already....excited to see more of the build as it progresses!
watching this dude do some clean wiring is quite relaxing. it bothers me so bad to see some rat nest wiring in a vehicle. i'm not really a car audio guy but this channel is interesting for sure.
People act like Steve Meade wakes up and farts out audio equipment #SMH
Watching you cut that 1/0 with those snips is so poetic! Nothing like having a good pair of cutters!
I feel like a kid on Christmas when you get in the stereo parts and open them live on video😃 love how you switch brands from time to gives everyone a free demo much appreciated 👍 love your work🔥🔥🔥🔥
WOW! That drill / Tap Bit looks awesome! im gonna have to google that now.
Harbor Freight baby!
Damn for real! Going tomorrow. Good lookin out! As always - love your attention to detail... thats what separates a lot of builds.
Bro your work is mad clean love it every time
thanks tank!
your shop is always banging the classic tunes and its amazing that you created a simple olution to wire distro that was amess for years your products are simple not a rip off and claim to super human things il always be a fan of you steve we share the same name and love for steak knives
yes, indeed. There are other fuse holders out there..there are other distro blocks. There are distro bars. But mine don't look like or resemble anyone elses. On the other hand, there has been a few others who tried and continue to bootleg mine. They are all about 5 versions behind me though as i have learned a lot along the way with thousands and thousands sold world wide. Anyway, thanks man!
Downright soothing to watch...instilling order amidst chaos.
Bro you should of used the anti rotational locking ground terminals with the 3 self taping screws! lmao
holy fuck. Thanks for the advice Audio bro. Just trying to get on that next level one day at a time. Next install my bro.....bwahahahahaha
Any time man! One day you can be a master installer if you keep working hard at it and learn from your mistakes! ahahha
Steve you are now my best friend you can keep my truck as long as you want if I get to have you hooking it up. I already have DC level 3 12’s two more would be great
Robert Burky maaaàaaan Rob those 4 12's is going to blow your head off. It's going to be more than enough! HA! I got one 8 and that's enough in that same cab. I have a 97. I bet you will not be able to stand even halfway turned up with all that beat you are going to have. You got a clean set up man. 🙉
Steve cool asf for doing this for his homie like mad respect bro
I loved every part of this video. I haven't seen any of the other videos possibly not even any of your videos in general.
I loved that every second was relevant content to the whole purpose of the video, you showed a bunch of good shots of you doing all the work, you made it look so simple and elegant. This is exactly how I want to be able to do everything when I upgrade.
I'd hang out with you just to listen to the music lol
Its funny doug from soundman would have taken 2 weeks to show what it took u one episode to do
martin pattison yeah that seems about right
Never really been in to car audio, im rockin a single 10” sub and 4 door speakers, and it’s plenty enough power for me, but man I gotta say you do some great work. The amount of time and work you put into the cars you’re working on is amazing. I love seeing people do professional work, no matter what it is! 🤘 keep it up!
I could watch you wire a truck for hours. So relaxing...
KMFDM781 Right on.
Sick.... I had no idea you had a UA-cam! It’s awesome you are a legend!! People this man is fucking legend DO NOT question him he knows his stuff... man this inspires me to start installing again and gain some more knowledge myself. Much love man I would love to have a few words with you as someone who takes this very seriously. Hey what’s up with those “speaker chimneys” on the shop wall???
A legend wouldn't replace a fire hazard with a clean looking fire hazard.
*FUSE THE ALTERNATOR WIRE*
those door panels are worth 3db all by themselves
ITS SO AWESOME TO WATCH YOU START FROM OLD RIP OUT REAPLASE WITH NEW MUCH CLEANER
Love how clean the wires look with the distribution blocks. Looking good!
"What the fuck is that?"
Proceeds to cut it lmao...I love this guy
Got that e40 da bumble jamming in the back👌🏽👌🏽
This was super satisfying to watch. Door panels are SO fresh.
Good damn job. Dudes lucky to have you as a friend. I'm tuned in for all of this.
My man just did 5000 dollars worth of work on a 1500 dollar truck!!!
1500? seriously? 150 tops. lol
He's a class act!!!
Spice 1! Only 42 year old white guy in mpls that still rocks S.P.I.C.E. 1! LOVE IT!
I still love rap from the 90's. Used to be new school to me, now it's old school,.....like me.😂😂🤣🤣
I've learned so much from you and this channel over the years. Keep going strong, bro!
Meade is a problem in these streets. Official work always! Stay blessed
the system is worth more than the truck haha
What wire cutters are those🧐
Watching you work is like watching a heart surgeon, all skill, technique and knowledge of course.
When i see other videos and i see yours is like u r the real deal on car systems
Yeeeeeaaaauuuuuuuuhhhh!!!!!!! 👌👌👌
Throw the incriminator audio on the amp dyno.
Bro you make everything look and sound badass , and you also do it right, all the way down to tuning for optimum performance. I have no doubt that you would be my first choice to tighten up the beats in my truck. Props from 805
I love seeing your attention to detail. My OCD thanked you for orienting the letters on the heatshrink. Lol
Why didn’t you service the alternator fluid
+Dane Van Pelt lmao
So hold up... I know this vid is 2yrs old right, but errr uhhh u mean to tell me ppl were actually installing basic single dins like that still???
Daily
Some people (w/panther bodies) don't want to cut they dash to fit the double din... Not me, but some people 🤣
@@fosholyfe6115 I just buy a single din with a flip out face
Fr though, I've had double din touch screens in my rides since like 2007 lol.
It's 2021 and I'm about to put a single din CD player in my 81 eldorado it's a brand new still in the box clarion I had 6 years im not about to spend the money but to each their own
Wouldn’t think you would be metalhead since you such a bass-head
love the content, keep up the good work man.
This was atleast a 15k job...but well worth it..this is very fkn clean and not cheped out or no shitcuts just straight real quality professional work all the way around..bro much respect for not cheapin out not even in 1 area....i hope u do every vehicle the same even when the cameras pff but i have a feeling you do so mad props ..💯👌
ight y'all its time for a little honesty... I'm replacing the engine, tranny, shocks and new paint when that truck starts to die.. make everybody want 1997 silverado, whatttt
Beautiful work on an absolute piece of crap truck.
I've been watching your channel since before it got big and you go the extra mile in your detail to attention and installation keep up the amazing work god bless 🙏
Top notch work Steve, I swear every video it seems like you’re stepping up your game. Keep up the good work bro! 😎👍🏻👌🏻
Oh man I so needed to see this video, im just starting my first big wire, big power install in my 04 expedition this is showing a lot of great info, thanks!
This is going,to be a very reliable boulevard bruiser of a system!! Great work as always!
This is actually going to be a bad ass system! Can't wait to see how this comes out!
Wow so much time and effort put into this video! Great stuff as usual Steve!!!! Love it man.
Steve you are one hell of a friend, a one in a millio friend , and hell of a human being.
I learned a lot by looking at your videos and now that I know how to do it I hook up people music around my neighborhood and it sounds very good
Coming along nicely, look forward to the box and amp install.
That battery is almost worth more than the truck! Love it. I know he will too
Steve your the best system installers I learned from you a lot of shit that I didn't even know and I been installing systems for years and everytime I watch I learned more new techniques from you man ... can't wait to see this installation final results. 😎👍
Awesome seeing bassheads supporting other bassheads! Good work man.
you my dude are my hero everything I've learned about car audio I've learned from you. keep doing you.
I had a friend that wired shit crazy like that. I couldn’t stand it. Nice to see Steve helping him out👍🏻
Bro you’re the man! This reminds me of home all my friends ask me to hook there stuff up or fix there monstrosities and for the love of music I’m always happy to help! Keep doing what you’re doing I love your vids..

All the way from South Africa
Steve does awesome work!!! I wish I had the knowledge and know how to do half that!!! Looks fun! And just to see the before and after. Is phenomenal good work Steve!! Would love to have a box built by you!
Can't wait Steve, looks so awesome already man!
You're a hard working guy man I got a lot of respect for you, Watching your video's since I was probably 14-15 some shit. Like 8 years ago, always wanted a shop like yours or to work in a shop like yours. Grew up around Sac but never came by, someday I will maybe. Good video, I just finished it.
That wiring it's just a piece of art 👌well done
You know that system is going to look and sound so good when you have the time and place and can do it right that how it will trun out great job man
That's a nice setup bro I'm sure he'll love everything when you're done!
Oh this is going to be another great install...cant wait to see the box build!
Thank you for all of the demonstrations on how to do things properly.
High end audio like this isn’t my scene at all, but the quality of the work you do and how you do it made me into a subscriber! Makes me kind of want a small system in my vehicle...
Talk about attention to detail !! Awesome job my guy !!
Can't wait to see the rest of the build.
can't wait to see the finish product!!! good job steve
Gran canal dedicado al car audio.gracias por compartir vídeos como este,hermano eres el mejor. Saludos desde España.
Thanks for showing ur wireing and it’s going to be an amazing build im also about to build a 98 Chevy 1500 extended cab I would have not thought of doing the ground that way I’ll definitely keep that in mind for my build
Damn wish I had a bud that would hook me up like this. That’s a kick ass thing your doing my brother
Wow, that is going to be a sick system! And it's definitely a system anyone can put in their own vehicle. Of course we have yet to see the box you are going to design. Can't wait for that! But of course no rush!
That ground to the frame is slick. Really clean with the compression fitting
Really enjoying this build Steve. 💪
Enjoy watching your videos Steve. U do some great work
This was one of your best videos a true how to
Always banging out great videos. 👍👍👍👍 looks like a dope install! !!
Like what you doing. Reminded me of your old videos
