Jeep TJ $17 Center Console Subwoofer Upgrade
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 чер 2024
- What's up GcFam! Another Loaded upisode this week! FYI all links to everything in the video will be below! On this weeks episode we install a $17 amazon special subwoofer rated at 300w AND we announce the WINNER of our tailgate table giveaway from last week. Now this unit directly plugs into the center console subwoofer box of the stock jeep tj. This enclosure comes from the factory with a wired subwoofer. As you know, we are not the original owners of this jeep tj, and as so, the original subwoofer has already been tampered with in this jeep, and it was not present in the enclosure. We went ahead and removed the enclosure and upon testing, we noticed that the subwoofer was not working. If this happens to you, just keep in mind the stock subwoofer has a signal wire which is shown in the video, blue with white strip found behind the head unit. This needs to be plugged into the headunit for the stock subwoofer to work. Hope this video was helpful!

Bro I literally had all of the exact same issues... Like to THE TEE. Especially the blue wire with the white stripe being cut and because of this tutorial I now have base. Thanks!
Wow, crazy. So glad to be able to help!
Congrats tyler! I really like the upgrade in sound you got from those speakers. I'm definitely going to give this upgrade a go.
Let us know what you think!
Dude. Thank you!!! I had almost the same exact issue. JVC deck with one blue tied into steering wheel controls…my 01 Sahara doest have controls lol. Tied all 3 blue together and presto!!! Finally have decent sound! Wish I figured this out last summer the first time I ripped it all apart. Great video and digging the sub. Cheap fix for my old girl. 👍👍
So glad to hear this helped! Cheers!
Y’all be rocking it.. keep up the great work and as always Jeep on!!
Thanks so much! Cheers
Just did this but I added some poly fill to the inside of the box to deaden it a bit, I highly recommend doing this , it gets rid of any hollow sounds and gives it a deeper bass!
What is poly fill and where can I get some?
Great 🎥 Greg. Congratulations to Tyler. You both do great videos, but your awesome together. Hello from Texas.
Thank you so much! Appreciate your kind words!
Also, 13:26 - the look of pure terror! I always get a laugh out of your antics!
Hahaha!
I see that you finally hit 10K subscribers. Congratulations!
Thank you so much!!!
I love budget installs! Nice find guys 🤟🏼
Thank you!
Loved the intro. I always bump my knees on tables, chairs, you name it lol.
Lol! The struggle is real!
Great video. wondering with that small of a space, if some poly-fill would help make sound better also.
Congratulations on 10,000 subscribers!
Thank you so much!
I just started working on mine tonight! I hope I don’t run into the same wiring issues you did! Wish I could include a picture because mine came from a beach Jeep so it was sandy & rusty & falling apart!
Thanks for the video on how to replace the sub. Mine has been out for a little while
Nice! Let us know what you think!
I miss my 06 TJ, they were so easy to work on or mod compared to my 2020 JLU
Yes they are!
Great video and install! My install was mirror of yours, down to same trouble with remote wire not connected. LOL
Awesome! Glad we were able to help!
Hey, congratulations on 10K!
Thank you so much!!!
I replace my sub with same after watching this video. I went a step further and installed a 5ch amp to power the new sub and all my update speakers. Great top down sound.
Awesome!
You both are awesome!
Thank you!
Okay so I saw your video, thought, why not, its 17$ and my jeep desperately needs the help in the bass department. Got the speaker and went to put it in, and nothin happened. My jeep had the same issues with the wiring 😂 needless to say it's all right now and the sub sounds so much better, thank you for the help
This is so funny! Glad you love it!
Thanks! Been looking for a replacement stock sub
Nice nice!!!
If you take the dust cover and cut out the screen you can use it as a spacer to put underneath the speaker and you won’t have to cut out the plastic parts inside the box
I’m going to do this, seeing how you’re a good idea guy, any idea why the stock speaker had two separate connections, like now I have a brown and grey wire with no use??
The Pyle PLPW6D is a dual voice with 4 connections. It is the recommended sub on all the TJ/LJ forums.
Good call!
Is the connection process different for these model?
@@holedem26 the Pyle uses screw down connections. I just snipped the terminals off of my stock wiring. It’s super easy.
Jimmy, I'm literally installing the speaker from the video as we speak. Is it worth it to return it for the plpw6d? Is the difference worth it?
We've had both. You wouldn't know the difference.
Sweet pool and backyard. I like that Torx wrench set, do you remember where you got it or which one it is? Just replaced my speakers with the Kicker plug-and-play options and it is definitely an upgrade over the factory TJ option!
Hi! Thanks for the comment and support. We got it on amazon, will have to dig up the link:)
You guys are awesome! Please tell me where you can purchase the center console that allows you to install a subwoofer, I searched everywhere, and not finding one. I have a Jeep Wrangler 2006 SE TJ manual transmission. Thank you so much!!!
Great video. I never knew they had a speaker there. Lol
Lol! Thanks for the support
TJs are awesome yours is extra awesome..
Thank you!!
Great video ----- What size self-tapping screws did you use? I ordered my speaker yesterday .
Congrats! No idea, we used what we had laying around!
I would add some poly fill so that you can get a crisper sound without crazy vibrations
Good call!
Hi Jose, you would put this in the casing of the subwoofer? Is that correct?
@@ForsakenGod23 yes
How does the sub gets the signal with the non factory stereo? Congrats on the easiest video I’ve seen on changing the sub, all your content is great.
Thanks for the kind words! Using the factory speaker wires!
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it
What center console is that? Mine is a 1999 Wrangler TJ and I would love to have that one instead
Congrats Tyler
🍺
Hmm my center subwoofer doesn't work.. I am going to look into this. As usual great video!!
Did it work?
I got the whole set of this one main reason the color Black and Yellow However I need to relocate it because I took out my CC in the way
I purchased a 2006 Rubicon that has a factory 7 speaker configuration. I plan to upgrade the aftermarket stereo and speakers after some much needed maintenance.
I haven't found any videos on the rear speakers. There are plenty on front and roll bar speakers and you have made a comprehensive sub video. But do you have a video discussing the far rear speakers or the 7 speaker configuration and their replacement?
You probably figured it out by now, but the 7 speaker system consists of 1 subwoofer + 2 sound bar speakers + 4 front speakers. The 4 front speakers consist of 2 (1 tweeter, and 1 mid) mounted together in the location where the 4x6s typically would be in a 4 speaker system.
I just picked up a Jeep TJ and cant believe how much I am falling in love with it. I did just post a video on my channel about it if your interested in having a look
I Love my TJ
Where is the link for the sub. When I click it takes me to Amazon for other products
based on your radio station that played in the video, we live in the same area, yay...
Wooot! Where abouts are you guys located?
Great video Greg, what is your review of the speaker? Congrats to the winner. Cheers!
We really like the speaker! It sounds great right out of the box, and continues to get more and more full over time. Would highly recommend for the price of 3 coffees!
I don’t see a link for the $17 speaker. Also, it looks like you had to drill new holes for the sub to fit in the consul?
Its in our amazon shop! Link in description. and We did not have to drill new holes, just used self tapping screws
you guys awesome
We appreciate you!
I think i blew my stock amp by using the kicker 1 ohm. It worked and sounded good but then suddenly nothing. I check the fuse and it seemed ok. Any ideas? Or ideas to find a replacement stock one?
Hmm, I have never heard of blowing a stock amp. You can find them on ebay, but I would replace with an aftermarket micro unit
As much as I want to stick with the TJ I think the wife did it better. We (my kids and I) enjoy her energy in both her voice and host style. Thanks for another quality vid fam!
Appreciate this! I'll be sure to let Greg know! 😄
@@Garagecouple Lol I'm sure he will love that.
Hehe 🤙
Okay so was it the small clipped wires that you had shown? I have an 01 TJ Sahara that is in dire need of a sound upgrade
Yes it is! Enjoy the upgrade!
Wow, impressive response time!
Great vid y'all!
Awesome
Cheers
Showing off your nice, green lawn, and we just got a ton of snow, haha! You need to clean your Jeep, though! I also totally didn't realize the sub could be replaced by an aftermarket - but I've only had mine out once to install my Tuffy console - Maybe someday I'll try that sub as well (if you guys recommend it, haha)!
Haha thats funny! The tuffy console is pretty cool! The sub has been perfect so far!
Hey guys. Got a 2005 TJ Wrangler renegade. Came with stock 6 speakers, sub and I assume there is an amp in the centre console with the sub.
Looking to replace stereo. Do you know if amp and sub still work with aftermarket stereo? Or do I need special converters?
It works even better with an aftermarket stereo! Cheers
@@Garagecouple sweet. So just a standard JT harness and splice with the new Stereo iso?
Sub and amp powered via exisiting harness setup but controlled via iso connecter to new Stereo?
Major jeep noob here had it 10 years and never done any mods n
Aileen did it better!! I hope i spelled your name right. I think you do the best together!!! Love when she pranks you. 🤪 i wanted that table😢 maybe I’ll win in the future!!! Thanks for the show!!!! I love learning about jk’s because I have one.
Haha thank you for the support! Aleen for sure did it better!
the 4 wires from the amp is for a dual voice coil subwoofer, the best way I found to add bass to my tj taking minimal space was to get a 10" powered subwoofer from Rockford Fosgate P300 series awesome sound in a small space and has built in amp and is plug and play
Awesome! Thank you for the suggestion! We have an 8 inch under seat powered sub which will go in on a future episode! Stay tuned!
If it's true that the factory amp is set up for a dual voice coil subwoofer, a Pyle PLPW6D looks to be a better choice IF the Jeep enclosure volume is around 0.5 cu ft. It's also a more efficient driver. The one star reviews on the one recommended in this video are enough to keep me from ordering it and if the amp is setup for dvc then that definitely kills it.
Good morning from rainy Spokane WA.
Good morning!!
Any idea where I can pick up a replacement amp for my TJ? It’s dead and I can’t find one anywhere.
Ebay
@@Garagecouple I’ve looked everywhere including eBay. Haven’t seen a single one.
Wow. She is beautiful
This is so cool except my tj doesn’t have a center console 😭
Ahh!
How have these held up so far?
It just keeps getting better and better!!
How is it holding up after 6 months?
As if it was just applied!
Did you need to buy an amp to run this speaker?
Nope. The factory amp as shown in the video.
Then you have me with a 98 missing the armrest part of the center console lol
LOL!
Is the subwoofer a Rubicon option?
I'm not sure.. it may be standard on the Rubicon..our sahara had it too
I have a 99 Sahara. My console is different?
Our 01 sahara was identical!
No
Is there an amp in this system powering the sub?
Yes factory Amp
Thanks, is it within the radio itself? where is this amp located?
Located in the center console
What size fenders are those?
4 inch high rise metalcloak
@@Garagecouple ok thanks!!!
Good Morning 😃
Good morning! Thanks for tuning in!
Great episode by Greg. I don’t own a Jeep but I’m saving up for one. I keep watching your videos because there educational and makes me want a Jeep so badly.lol
Keep it up Garage Couple 🤘
Thanks so much 🍺 🍻 🍺 🤟🤞🤙
Pyle of $hit. It has a plastic basket which will cause the speaker to distort. Spend the money and get a Kicker 6.5 sub.
3 years later and still no distortion...
Can a sub like this be added to a 97 TJ console?
As long as it has a factory sub!
@@Garagecouple no sub, I was just thinking maybe I cut cut a hole and make that console and enclosure
@@michaelclld totally could or just go to a junkyard and buy one with the enclosure and don't forget the amp!
Good jop
Thanks so muchA
Greg I think you won
Woooooot!!!
I enjoy all your videos, I have learn a lot. But please please, wash and detail your Jeep. Is a nice Jeep to be all dirty 😊
Haha thanks so much!
Haha video idea is either cleaning or getting your JK cleaned, that's filthy! Mainly joking but still lol. Aileens was tad better, but yawl do it better together as Luke Combs new song goes lol
Hahah! Thanks for your support! Appreciate the kind words
can i still win lol you saved me with this
Glad to have helped!
Great couple - and channel, but it’s ironic how he makes fun of the previous owner and his workmanship, with the cut corners these two do.
Difference between mickey mousing and skipping non critical steps
Hmmmm - sure…….. if that is what you believe.
Yoooo
Dammmmm danielll
all this work and ZERO DEMO??????
How would we demo?? All the music is copyrighted...
To have 4 wires it must have a inner tweeter. So you just downgrade haha
Not at all! The system is wired through the sub. Been years now, no comparison to stock lol
A 6.5”…… 🤨…… if you don’t feel it it your chest… it’s not a real sub. Put a low profile 12 in the back.. 👌. Or 10” minimum.
Check out the low pro we put in in a later video
Lol.!!!!......30 mins
Yes!!!
bro... vacuum your car
clean as you go!
no scrub nurses to clean up after you here 😅
Hahaha! Definitely guilty of leaving a mess in the OR
Bro vacuum your Jeep. Seriously
Bro No seriously
You 2 are very awkward
Orlly
The most mickey mouse system ive ever seen 🤦🏻♂️
