Just got a 08 solara convertible and want to upgrade the audio. I’m out of your area but the info was priceless. Thanks I’m going to use this as reference when I go somewhere local.
Glad to help
Yeah I got the head unit put in a couple days ago. I went with Sony XAV 6000 since that was in stock and was close enough for my needs. Love it and with the stock JBL amplified setup it’s putting out much better sound than the stock unit through the factory setup. I would like to retain the original wired setup as much as possible so my next upgrade will just be the speakers. Might go with you ur Eton suggestion but I might just keep the 6x9’s for ease of installation. I was careful to find a place that doesn’t thrash the stuff you don’t usually see. Made sure if I ever wanted to put the factory unit back it wasn’t un-reversible.
Back speakers don’t seem very loud with most of the volume coming from the doors. I want to fix that so that I’m getting more volume from the back and have a more surround effect. Stock sounds like most of its being pushed just through the fronts.
I’m going back after Xmas and figure it all out with my installer. Again thanks for all the tips and necessary parts. Even if your not doing it yourself it’s good ti be informed.
Wish you guys were closer. Just picked up a 2005 Solara coupe.
Road trip!! 😂
Great video, will give me an idea when I take mine apart soon.
But... The 6x9 vs 8" argument is wrong. A good 6x9 off an amplifier isn't going to distort until abuse. Same goes for kickers square subs. The kenwood 6902/6903 for example are 6x9 components that are phenomenal for the money.
Thanks for the different opinion.
It looks like you know something about sonority...
What havebyou done to the Solara?
I just realized i can improve my wife's car sound myself.
Any tips?
OMG😱 WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE! I have a 06 Solara as well and I need everything in this video. Where are you guys located???
Nashville, TN
Man there isn’t a lot of audiophile 8” gear out there from my initial searching. I might have to move to that if I can
You have a couple.. ETON 200.2, Illusion Audio Carbon Series and the Focal Utopia M series
@@SoundsGoodStereo I have a GB15 audiofrog in the solara right now with the cheaper gs 6x9. I was looking at the gb60 which is a really good midrange when I ran into the 8" brackets yall have and it got me thinking.
Are you still doing this kind of car and what's the price for the work, same exact work
No we are not, only trucks at the moment.
Where did you get the dash kit (the plastic piece that goes around the screen???)
I have a 2004 Solara without JBL. What kinda money should I expect to spending for a setup like this?
Typically $2500 to $3500
@@SoundsGoodStereo Holy..
What's up guys ? So I have a 2008 mercedes sl550. 2 door hard top. I'm trying to build my first serious sq system. I have been looking at these Eton 8" 2 ways. I'll be building each enclosure in the kicks. I'm in the states so eton , steg , rainbow are all pretty new to me. I am thinking a subwoofer in the passenger kick but my question is.. do these 8's provide enough front stage bass ? Or would I still want a dedicated sub woofer ? I'm here in indiana and don't know of any high end shops so your help or any other commenters would be greatly appreciated.
How did y'all wire the tweeters everytime I unplug them my door speakers stop working new to doing this still learning
Where can I find the dash speaker adapters

Hi. Whats the exact color of those gray leather seats? I want repair mine but I don’t know the exact color. The code is LC10 but I cant find it anywhere. Thank you.
Not sure, it's been a long time.
I have a solara 2004 With a JBL system (coupe). Everything is from stock and its a SLE model. Does it have a stock subwoofer?
Not sure, look around the vehicle and see if you can identify it.
Nice video!
May i ask which tweeters did you use and the dimensions? Thank you so much! :)
Do not remember, it's been a while. I know we have adapters on our website that fit the Solara. Give us a little time and our new fit guide will help you out
by any chance do you know which wire of the factory wire harness is the amp wire?????
I don’t remember off the top of my head. I would search online and look for wire schematics. We just test every vehicle, just so we don’t assume it’s the same as a previous year.
can the radio alone adapt to the stock speakers?
Whats the kit you used to place the double din radio into the dash?

Is it possible to put a touch stereo in this car or did u haft to cut the old one out
Just wondering if the Sony xav ax 5000 has the same type of features. It looks like it's about half the price. Can I order all the dash adapters and wiring harnesses from you? 2007 Toyota Solara Convertible SLE. Thanks, Brian
You can see the adapters on our website at soundsgoodstereo.com/
What dash kit did you use for the stereo?

does this Sony unit turn on the rear camera when you switch to reverse? or would you have to do it manually through the touch screen
It will automatically do it if you add a reverse trigger. Just follow the instructions and it will work like a factory system.
How much did this cost total? I have the exact same vehicle (it even has the same color exterior and interior!) , and would like to do pretty much the exact same thing to it! Would be interested in potentially having you guys work on it!
Be patient...he's still adding it up.
@@jimmcmahon217 LOL 😂 all good, I got a similar system (XAVAX5000) installed in my car here in San Antonio. Cost $500 total with backup camera install.
@@thabitpulak That's not bad! I just put a Boss 850 w/backup cam in a similar car, and while it wasn't crazy-hard, it did give me a new appreciation for what car stereo guys do.
the important thing is for music, you didn't
