After watching this video I am going to start redoing my 02 Suburban XLT, my wife even wants to help. A lot of history just didn't want to get rid of it since it was used to drive grandparents and parents to doctors. Thank you for showing that anything is possible. Keep it up.
Due to your thoroughness, you could explain how to do something totally different from audio or car products and still do an excellent job. This is one of the best videos I have seen on You Tube. well done.
Hey bro, I have 37 + years as an installer. Air saw is much easier and quicker for cutting the plastic out. Just thought this may help you a lil more in the future ! Blue wire is remote turn on for inexperience ppl... Also, the parking brake wire can be bypassed to give you video, by either bypass chip or just ground to black ground wire if head unit harness.... Great job tho
I used a multi tool saw with a cheap square metal/wood blade, to trim the plastic out of the radio cage and it worked well . Battery powered, light way, and adjustable head, with a long read too. Sliced through the cheap plastic like butter with no metal plastic buggers to file.
The instructions are pretty handy and are clear about removal of the dash support brace for double din fitment. This is true with all full size cabs in the model year and class your working with. The gm11 interface is a realtime module designed to seamlessly convert from oem stereo to aftermarket all the while retaining vehicle functionality. There is no need or stated direction that requires removal of the climate control module.
I have to admit this is pretty well done dude, against all odds and obstacles you manage to make it work. I’m going to add a double din touchscreen stereo to my truck as well so can’t wait and this really inspired me to push forward with the idea.
Holy crap! What a great video man! I've installed basic single DIN aftermarket radios, but the double with all the extras, in a 1.5!! Just great job. For me, I have a 2002 GMC Yukon Denali, same dash and setup. Watching this was extremely informative and points me in the right direction. My direction thankfully is now easier because the head unit I want comes in 2 models virtually the same 7" screen. One is a double DIN, the other single with flip out screen. Deciding from watching your video is the single DIN is $150 more than the double. I'll go with the single because saving $150, I'd spend more on the replacement bezel and few extras, plus, I'm not that crafty and handy as you. I rarely comment on videos, but I had to share how helpful you were! BTW, I'm going with the Pioneer AVH-3300NEX (single) compared to the Pioneer AVH-2300NEX (double). Thanks again - I subscribed!
I just installed almost the same head unit in my wife's 04 Dakota. Looks the same newer part number. Wish I could have just purchased a double din dash panel nobody makes them for Dakota I had to make one. Looks good can't tell it's custom just a lot more work.
Excellent description in your videos. I’ve seen almost all of them that have to do with the Tahoe because I have one the same year and package. Super nice to have someone that does multiple vids on things I’d like to do to mine! I always hit up your vids if I need a little extra clarification or just wanna learn something new! Hope you keep going with the vids and keep upgrading the Tahoe! Thanks for all the great info! Now off to upgrade mine!
Very interesting to see how to get a double din in. I see you bypassed the factory amp/crossover at the head level. There are a couple videos that show how to bypass it at the factory amp unit. It’s behind the glove box. Love the new dash bezel and the double bin case. Good to know it fit. Thanks for a great diy video!
OR YOU CAN use crutchfield and put in what car and everything you have, it will tell you exactly how much space you can and if the radios will fit, they also include if you can mod them to fit. etc. Very helpful info on there. You think its worth it to pay someone 99 bucks to install a double dim, and to hook it all up to nav and steering weheel?
Great great video. I have a 2002 Tahoe mtself with the 5.3l and will now be subscribing to your channel! Wish the audio wasn't completely muffled and almost silent but other than thst awesome job!
Decent job, man! Its nice to actually see this kit rather than the stock photos. My problem is my truck is the Cadillac. I'd love to double DIN swap being this simple but I just can't loose the woodgrain trim. =( -- Side note, I see they reuse the Auto4WD button in the Tahoes as the Folding Mirrors Button in the Escalade lol. GM really does have about 12 buttons they use everywhere on everything every few years.
Just found your videos. And watched the blue leds and also the dash cluster face. I'm loving what you're doing and inspired me to go get some leds and get it down. I actually just ordered that dash bezel and it was $160 on amazon
Some of these are really a pain in the ass. For instance, in my dodge, i had to wire the ignition wire to the cigarette lighter because it simply didnt work when i wired the ignition wire of the truck harness to the ignition wire of the radio harness
Great video. Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I am looking to doing an install in my Silverado, and this video will help a bunch. The only thing I can think of is why you did not de-pin the wires that you were not using from the connector instead of heat shrinking the unused wires?
Nice bro must be nice to have a little patience I have absolutely none but I was prob in the negative in the patience department in life and I stay working on all my bike and trucks and well I'm not trying t pay extra for things I mishandle during The whole process of the diy life but cool bro good job man
I put a planet audio 8inch and amp set up in my 2004 Tahoe but I had to get the back panel and the box from a earlier year because 2004 they quit putting the sub back there it worked fine sounded okay but the box sucks I think it needs needs to be ported the stock Bose system sounded better in my opinion but it's cool to customize stuff and save space good video
Great Video. It's exactly what I have been looking for to install a double din to a din and a half in my 1986 Corvette convertible. Any suggestions would really help.
Thanks. It wasn't horrible. I wasn't aware it had a factory amplifier. After I discovered that and the exciter wire for the amp that needed power it the install went smoothly. The old suburban now had GPS Navigation, Bluetooth and a backup camera.
Any idea why when i turn my vehicle on i have sound then it just all cuts out? Is that pink wire going to the factory amp to the blue and white wire from stereo harness be my issue?
If you bypassed the factory amp prior to this Double Din Install, would you connect the purple and green wires you shrink wrapped to the same color speed wires if that's was your situation in order to make your rear passenger side and rear driver side speakers to work with the new amplifier you installed?
looks good, good job. im having issue's with my double din, the mount kit for my dash doesnt line up with any hole on my stereo. if anyone has any suggestions feel free to let me know. 2013 kia optima with a 7" boss audio 2 din
Up to 2:10 , your gauge cluster face is OEM, after that its changed to a brushed metal gauge face .... when are u gonna tell us abt that eh 🤔 Sneaky Steve. Nice instal on both btw 🤣
sir was the only reason you pulled the stereo cage out was to cut out for wire running other then that the double din fit in location with the new trim thank you
I have an 02 suburban 2500. I have 2 hookups on the factory radio. I got the adapter plug that you have, did everything I needed to but it won't put sound to my speakers without that second plug. I've seen where you can connect the 2 into one but wires don't match up
@@tcb-_-pureskill1798 my truck has an 8 disk cd player from the factory that was removed when I got it, however the previous owner added some sort of signal booster under the dash that was tapped into wires it wasn't supposed to be hooked too and that was messing up my speakers. I ended up running new wires and just left the factory wires hooked up. Now, I have read that the amplifier behind the glove box can mess with not getting power to the speakers. Bypass that and you'll be good
Yeah, I've heard that many times before. "Just place this nice little wire here, and connect it to this pretty little wire here. Yes, that's nice..... I like that a lot"
Just to let you know, your city/town is on the box when you show the box you got parts from. Only reason it caught my eye is Freemans Audio on Cherry Road.. How much did the parts cost from them? lol We live in the same city man
I went to Freemans, They told me $220 plus mounting bracket. I ordered the Metra and bracket all for $115 on eBay. Great video man i done step by step so far best video for double din aftermarket radio in a din 1/2
Thank you for great video. If a guy were to simply replace head unit and speakers without amp or sub, do you know how much power the stock head was sending to speakers? How much power double din sends to speakers? Just curious because speakers I am looking at can take up to 35 watts, and if head sends very low power, I am wondering if I would even notice a difference! I am in the old body tahoe 1999.
Replacing the speakers alone will make a difference you can hear. Factory stuff is trash. Replacing the head unit will also help and give you more modern music options. As for power, everything comes with power ratings on the box.
did you have to do anything for the on star i know my 2005 i had to do all kinds of stuff. but i just got a 2002 gmc sierra and want to add a double din. thanks
I have a question in terms of bypass the factory amp if I run the speaker wires directly to the 4 channel amp will it work or is there a specific way to bypass the factory amp
Any chance you could put the links in if possible man. I have a 2001 Tahoe and I think I might do the same. I wanna get an Android double din and also change out the LED on the cluster
i bought mine locally because i could not find them online. hope you have better luck. you can get a 2003+ from a junk yard for very cheap, but you will have to do a bunch of fab work around the A/C stuff below the double din.
Oh ya the main reason I was writing on here was to tel u to always hit amazon and eBay for what you're trying to purchase and ya I gotta wait an extra week but read the sellers reviews of course and make sure tie jus read the product description you should be all alrite and have a lil extra cash and I've had nothing but a positive outcome I get 75 percent of all my stuff on the internet and I get the warrantys as well so jus something to think about the next time you're working on anything def worth a 3 to 7 day wait save the extra cash for me at least
Very true. Just fyi though, it can still pay off to call a local shop. My local shop matched amazon and offered any help i needed with the install. They also cut me a break on the dash insert so I actually came out ahead. When I had a question, they answered it over the phone and never steered me wrong. Sometimes you can't beat that face to face customer experience.
Quick question...u know how your radio stays when u turn your car off and it shuts off once the door is open....do u happen to know what fuse that is...mine turns off when I turn the car off...it used to stay on...I know I messed up...I had to tap in to the fuse box....
you have to find the accessory wire red most of the time and hook it up. you can just have a constant 12.so either tap into another fuse that has power when the key is off and run it to you wiring harness to the red wire
You can get the stuff in this video on Amazon. See Description above.
Hey I dont see a link to order these parts? Did I miss it?
@@theresastinson3721 Description above

Hey bro, I have 37 + years as an installer. Air saw is much easier and quicker for cutting the plastic out. Just thought this may help you a lil more in the future !

Great job tho
all good tips, thanks!
Just trying to help you out some.
I used a multi tool saw with a cheap square metal/wood blade, to trim the plastic out of the radio cage and it worked well .

If I can do it, anyone can. Go for it!
Update: Stereo install complete. Thanks again
Man I wish I would've seen your video before I tried all the crap I did! It would've saved me a lot of time and another trip to the store!

antonio griffin go to the junk yard and find a 2003 and up bezel with the wood grain. Was just at my junkyard today and saw one
I have the same radio and I just pushed it in with some force and trimmed the dash
Where did you get that gage cluster

Very informative.
Thank you
thanks for watching!
Really nice cluster..
thanks!
The antanna wire can count as a source power for the amp as well.
southboss23 not a good idea, many head units will cut power to this wire when not in radio mode. This will cause the amplifier to turn off.
What size is the car stereo?
Want just the part on wiring? go to: ua-cam.com/video/NXwjRasWbus/v-deo.htmlm3s
I have 2 balck ground wires on the wiring harness from my stereo do i connect both to the balck ground from the aftermarket harness.
where would i ground the black wires at any suggestions ? inside the dash
Any idea why when i turn my vehicle on i have sound then it just all cuts out? Is that pink wire going to the factory amp to the blue and white wire from stereo harness be my issue?
I have the same issue.
If you bypassed the factory amp prior to this Double Din Install, would you connect the purple and green wires you shrink wrapped to the same color speed wires if that's was your situation in order to make your rear passenger side and rear driver side speakers to work with the new amplifier you installed?

sir was the only reason you pulled the stereo cage out was to cut out for wire running other then that the double din fit in location with the new trim thank you
If I remember correctly, yes
Sony xav has a screen but is really single din multi media
Wat size screen is dat
What do you need to make your after market double din with the factory factory tv that come in the 2005 tahoe.
pretty sure double din is standard after 2003 or 2004.
I have the same truck but I can't keep memory on my stereo and I don't have the blue and white wire for the amp where does the amplifier hook up to
So you can use your stock radio cage with this kit?
I have an 02 suburban 2500. I have 2 hookups on the factory radio. I got the adapter plug that you have, did everything I needed to but it won't put sound to my speakers without that second plug. I've seen where you can connect the 2 into one but wires don't match up
Did you ever figure it out, I’m having same problem

@@TahoeSteve And beat the devil out of it!!
So you cut the pink wire from the car harness and attached it to the stereo harness?
I have a 01 Yukon and going to let car toys install a double din what do I need to buy so they can do the job?
So is that bezel and the one from a 2003 Denali different sizes it don’t seem to fit right no access to ash tray either it’s blocked from the bezel
The aftermarket bezel fits nicely but is expensive. Getting one from a junk yard is much cheaper but will require a little modifying.
Where did u get your cluster gadges. I like the layout
Amazon - amzn.to/2M0rXVL
Great job what wire cutters are you using those things are sweet
got them from harbor frieght
Ya get it used cause you’ll have to still make a few small cuts. Bezel, stereo harness and save the screws and ur good. I paid $25 for it all
Totally makes sense if you can find one in good condition.
Just to let you know, your city/town is on the box when you show the box you got parts from. Only reason it caught my eye is Freemans Audio on Cherry Road.. How much did the parts cost from them? lol We live in the same city man
Good eye, I didn't notice that. I think the Metra was $160.
I went to Freemans, They told me $220 plus mounting bracket. I ordered the Metra and bracket all for $115 on eBay. Great video man i done step by step so far best video for double din aftermarket radio in a din 1/2
AppSkii $220 seems kind of steep. I think he gave me a discount because I bought the head unit and amp at the same time
I ordered it online for $120 i wasnt going to waste money over 3 day shipping lol
Wonder how that would work
Where did you ground your ground wire?
Where did u get that gauge cluster kit ???

Exactly what kenwood head unit did you install
Kenwood excelon ddx394
so do u need to cut the cage to make the actual double din fit
if you mean the large metal bracket - no i did not, however, it depends on how big of a head unit you buy
