- Here is an updated video trying to answer some of the questions on the previous video with a visual. This is a very "safe" factory upgrade. If you want more bass you'll want a sub that can handle more output and an amp that can provide it. Link for the LOC and other items I've used below. Hope this helps!

Great, detailed video. I expect nothing less from Neese’s.
Thanks for this video! Studied for the last 2 weeks, bought new install kit and same LOC, and snipped out the Sony stock Sub. Hardest part was getting through the firewall without a coat hanger (used a wooden shishkabob skewer) and the kit did not come with enough connectors to attach the fuse. Wish the LOC wires or stock wires were longer, but that part was very easy. Got to get my old Alpine mrv500 powering my RF P3 12 again :) just need to add a fuse to the power, and get a new sub/box since it doesn’t fit under the seat. Thanks again for the original video and answering questions, really helped make this a simple project in under 3 hours
Did you get yours going? And did you use the bass knob that came with the loc?
@@tylerkirtz1167 yes, it’s been running great since install. I did not need to mess with the levels when I installed so have not plugged in the knob yet
@Nvthvn23 thanks for the quick response, I actually looked on a site and seen that the bass knob actually plugs into the loc.. lol.. I have the factory sub and amp in my 13 limited, I'm waiting on my speaker to come in but I went ahead and pulled the stock sub, can I just use quick splice connectors to the factory sub to loc and keep my factory plugged in also?
How does the amp know when to turn off?
Did you use the bass knob that came with the loc? It comes with a auxiliary input not to sure what that plugs into. My amp has like a phone cord connector
So the thread you referenced the guy uses the stock amp, did you just take the wires after the sub connector (green connector) or did you go before said connector?
Cannot find wiring diagram for my 2013 xlt screw 5.0 4x4 !! Need to know which color wires to tap into and if I can pull the floor cover up and access them or where to access . Thanks so much !!!!
Do you have a factory sub in your f150? If not the process is a bit different than what I have shown in my videos. I just want to make sure so I lead you down the right path
Can you please tell me , how to wire the loc like what color wires to look for and where to tap into ?! Thanks man I’m only running one sub
Did you figure it out? I’m having the same problem figuring it out
If you have a factory sub you’re replacing you’ll have two positive and negative wires connected coming from the factory amp. You just connect positive negative on the L and R wires respectively on the LOC. if you have your amp hooked up you’ll connect the power/ground/remote wires to it which is what I did. Your amp will need to obviously be connected to the battery and a remote tapped into a fuse or wire that can handle the power and only gets power when the truck is on or running. If you do not have a factory sub it is a little more complicated. You will have to tap the LOC into a speaker that is close enough so you’re not running a ton of wires. I don’t know of a video that explains it well so I apologize if this not very helpful
What wires go wear cuz I’m having trouble with mine, my truck had sub under the back passenger seat
If you had the factory sub then you will have two sets of positive and negative wires connected together that came from the factory sub amp. Those wires will connect to your line output converter. The LOC will show a L and R that you need to connect the factory sub wires to. So long as you connect positive and negative consistently you should be good. I believe they all should require a power/ground/remote signal that you can connect to your amp in their respective spots which I did. I believe I showed it in this video but if not it will be in the first video I uploaded on it. Hope this helps!
People keep asking and I never see a clear answer from you, but I’ll ask one more time what colors are the negative wires and what color are the positive wires coming from original sub harness??
I know you’ve covered the colors off the LOC which are white and grey
+ purple/green
- green/white
+ green/purple
- gray 😊
Maybe you could get a grill guard to fit to protect the woofer
Yeah at some point I’ll do that or get another box to better protect it because I don’t love it being exposed even with a grille
If you unbolt the seat and add some washers to raise the seat up you should have enough clearance to not hit the sub
I may do that or get some pieces made to fit so it doesn’t have any gap between the seat bracket and floor. Thanks for the idea!
