    What do you have in your Explorer?

    I toyed around with some different spots, but this was the best based on the "listen" test. If you mount them up front, you basically just have your front stage and your subs. Any farther back, and you can't really hear them. They are next to perfect right where they are. I amplified the 6" x...

    What do you have in your Explorer?

    I actually need to update mine as well. I installed a pair of rockford "prime" tweeters in the headliner. I also figured out that the new Audiobahn subs are junk, so I ordered a pair of Pioneer Champion Series Pro 12"s. I'm still going to be able to fit them in the side panels with no loss of...

    What do you have in your Explorer?

    My truck has 6x9s in the doors. It came with factory 6x9s. I can send you one if you'd like. As far as my plan goes, I'm surprised that you would think it would sound anything other than amazing. Quite frankly, stock locations are not designed with sound quality in mind. Based on the fact that...

    Power Antenna Wire - 2003 XLT

    Generally speaking, the power antenna wire hooks up to the remote wire from the aftermarket HU. I'm not too familiar with power antennas on Explorers, my Mounty doesn't have one.

    Head Unit Removal 03 explorer

    I don't know how similar/different they are, but in my 02 mountaineer, you just have to pry it off. It's held in place by like 6 metal clips. You can use a flathead screwdriver to get it off. just make sure you wrap the flathead in eletrical tape so you don't gouge any plastic...

    What do you have in your Explorer?

    I actually just read what I wrote and see the confusion. I said A Pillar, when in actuality, the 6.5s and 3.5s will be mounted in the B Pillar. 3.5"s up high, since the absolutely scream and I need to draw the sound up, and 6.5"s low just to add a little bit more depth. The way the seats are...

    What do you have in your Explorer?

    02 Mounty complete sound system... smooth install!

    From what I first measured, I had 1.7cubic(actual without sub displacement). I figured that I can squeeze that other 0.2 out of the hatch area(I can even go up with the box). That would give me the 1.8 cubic that I want. I'll run the subs with 0.4-0.45 cubic a piece, which is what Pioneer...

    02 Mounty complete sound system... smooth install!

    The subs I'm hoping to throw in are TS-SW2501S2. I need to find somewhere to pull a little more airspace from, but that shouldn't be a big deal. when I measured, the floor(above the jack) was still in and taking that out and conforming the box will give me the extra 0.2 cubic I need.

    02 Mounty complete sound system... smooth install!

    The amp is a lot more power than I need, but I'd hate to get rid of it. It's a $1100.00 amp that I got for $250.00 brand new. The amp specs are all RMS, which makes it even more scary! I used it for my Audiobahn AW1206Ts, and only needed to tweak the gain a bit. The Pioneer 10" will(according to...

    02 Mounty complete sound system... smooth install!

    I'm working on an install now on my 02 Mountaineer with the Third row seat still intact(i need the seat). I think I'm going to run 4 pioneer 10" shallow mounts and bolt the box to the third row, That way when I drop the seat i still have cargo space. I figured that I have about 1.7 cubic feet...
