Dude. It’s important to tap into a stereo source for the bass. The amp will convert into mono, but the studio didn’t record it that way. The end result is a loss of signal.
Only thing I would suggest, the "remote" wire needs to have an inline fuse on it, just 1amp is enough. If remote wire comes loose out of the amp and touches metal/ground, it will short burning something up (weakest link). It will get very hot in seconds. Wasn't a big fan of the main fuse holder either, it did not look weather sealed for engine bay use, corrode quickly but that's not a safety item.
You can make it real easy and buy an amp with level sensing amp turn on and remote level control. I just tapped the factory sub wires for signal under rear pass door sill. No pac needed. I used a JL amp and stealthbox
I just had a local shop install the JL box with twin 8” Subs and built in amp. My truck is a 2024 Silverado with the Bose system. Do you have any recommendations on what EQ settings you think would send best for the doors and after market sub. JL Audio MicroSub+ ACP208LG-W3v3 14:54
Nice video. Very informative. I have a 23 silverado with bose. Want a subwoofer. Do I need a bass restoration for roll off or can i use a jl loc-22? Installing a bass knob for the sub amp.
Looking to keep factory head replace factory Bose speakers on trailboss and ad maybe a box with 2 6 inch subs in box . Used to sound pretty decent but for some reason it doesn’t sound the same as it used to . How much would something like this cost thanks
@@LORDSLADE Check out LLJ Customs - they make a harness that doesn't require any tapping - the harness plugs into your factory harness (for both bose and non bose).
I have exact same truck, color, step rails, year, interior etc. only difference mine has the under seat storage and I’m having a hard time finding a box, any recommendations? I’d like to go with 2 10s if possible and the amp mounted behind the seat.
If you haven't figured it out yet, you will need to remove the under seat storage compartment. You have to remove the screws holding down the jack, remove the "wing nut" holding down the lug wrench, and there is a little screw in the front of the storage compartment on the driver's side that you have to remove. Then it comes right off.
Fuse box is different in a 22. There is no extra tab in there for a remote turn on location. Currently researching where I can hook it up before I get the volt meter out.
@@derektye9673 There's a tiny little tab at the top right of the fuse panel on the passenger side. Very close to the location in previous years models...just a little higher up. I modified a terminal end to slide onto it....basically squeezed it down with plyers so it would stay on that little tab. It's been working fine now for a few months. I'd be careful though, since I have no idea what it's for. I made sure there was no chance of it sliding off. If you need a pic, let me know.
Just an FYI, if that enclosure were 0.5 An S12 would be louder at every frequency above 32Hz compared to the S10 And the S10 would be louder below 32Hz but by 32Hz both subs are already down over 10dB by then anyway - and by Louder we are talking like 1dB >.< The 12 is fine. IMO sealed enclosures are the wrong way to go though.
Do you you get any feed back issues if you add to factory radio. I have a friend who is having issues where truck will be sitting with everything turned off but gets a loud bass feed back out of nowhere.
could potentially be a problem with you having a upper trim model. I've heard rumors about this where it has the noise cancellation or active cancelization which could be causing that
I have a 22 Silverado 1500 custom (non Bose) am I running the sni-35 on the passenger side also with the yellow wires? Does it matter which speaker wires you connect to?
Blue/grey(+), and green/black(-), can be found either at the amp at back wall, or in center console if you remove the plastic panel on the passenger side, twisted pair ran on its own.
@@brandontarhanich7868 be careful with the 22s I’ve been hearing that the loc has been causing door chime to be louder door speaker static and a few more other issues with the radio as well I’ve been trying too see if anyone else has had that issue
I'd be embarrassed that you said Scotch lock connectors? If you actually knew what they were and had installed thousands like we have maybe I would give you an ounce of credit. You getting on our video and telling us that we should be embarrassed? We've been doing this for over 25 years and use 3M t-taps on over 25,000 installs with no failures. Maybe you need to learn how to use the connector and then you won't have any problems or failures? It's not about the product it's about who installs it.

It's people like you that give products bad reputations because you know nothing about the product and your ignorance is why the internet the way it is. Please stop spreading misinformation
@@octanetvchannel Dude, they're scotch locks. They're an open air splice connector. What you're doing is adding an oxidation point into the wiring. Using them is asking for corrosion, especially in an entry point into a vehicle where you've got excess salt coming into the vehicle during the winter. Maybe you guys are in a super dry climate where you don't use road salt, or aren't by any salt water, but here in the Northeast, you'd be diagnosing signal issues within 2 years.

Nice clean install using the customer supplied components

For the 2019 gmc sierra 1500 non bose the wires you need on the passenger side are blue and white braided together
Thank you!
How about the 2019 Silverado?? Same colors??
I guess we'll never know. The mystery continues.
@@coreychandler7526 found out. They are the green and green with black stripe on the driver side. They are twisted together.
Dude. It’s important to tap into a stereo source for the bass. The amp will convert into mono, but the studio didn’t record it that way. The end result is a loss of signal.
Are you saying this isn’t the correct or optimal way of wiring subs?
Yeah, why is it not right? Because some songs roll bass from left to right …
You lose all bass output on the roll to the other channel.
Only thing I would suggest, the "remote" wire needs to have an inline fuse on it, just 1amp is enough.

He has another video none Bose install on his channel
Did the sni35 never gave you problems trying to do the same but they are telling the sni35 will burn up need to go with a lc2 audio control converter
I have installed thousands of them and never had one issue. But in fact I've had terrible issues out of the LC2
@@octanetvchannel thanks for the info
Will this video also apply to a 2023 Silverado 1500 without the Bose speakers and without the added kicker?
Most of this will but we have other videos on our channel for the non-bose

This is a great video - do you know if the wiring to the fuse box and the speaker wire color will be the same on a 2022 "refreshed" GMC Sierra?
Curious also I got a refresh and I want some subs 😂
@@LORDSLADE Check out LLJ Customs - they make a harness that doesn't require any tapping - the harness plugs into your factory harness (for both bose and non bose).
Very helpful video in my case. Thanks man.
Appreciate the video, do you know if this will work on the 13.5inch screens in the updated 2022.5 trucks?
We have not tried it yet but we probably will be getting one here soon

Doesn't kicker specifically make one for the silverados that go under and bolt.

@@derektye9673 hmmmm...how do I attach a pic to a RUclips comment? Lol
That I don’t know lol. Is it just the single skinny tab in the right corner kind of in an open box?
Literally just wanted I see what it looked like with the seat down, if it stuck out much if any at all
I don’t think it was mentioned, but what happens to the stock Bose sub and app? Did you just supplement that with this additional equipment?
It can be or you can disconnect the factory sub
When I tap that lug for the remote wire it cuts off for a split second when opening and closing the doors. Ever seen that?
It should only turn off when you open the doors and the ignition is off
Does the bose system not have a bass rolloff at a certain volume? In my old f150 i had to use a lc2i with accubass to accommodate the rolloff
Did he bring his own equipment
Did you tap into the speaker wires before the amp or after
Awesome channel. How does the LC1 bass knob go with this set up. Is it input from sni 35 then to amp?please help. Thanks
Just an FYI, if that enclosure were 0.5
An S12 would be louder at every frequency above 32Hz compared to the S10
And the S10 would be louder below 32Hz but by 32Hz both subs are already down over 10dB by then anyway - and by Louder we are talking like 1dB >.< The 12 is fine.
IMO sealed enclosures are the wrong way to go though.
my 2022 gmc sierra fuse box does not have the space to attach for remote signal any other location i can hook up to?
Will that braided yellow wire be the same on a 2014 Silverado with Bose system???
Do you you get any feed back issues if you add to factory radio. I have a friend who is having issues where truck will be sitting with everything turned off but gets a loud bass feed back out of nowhere.
That is probably if he has the noise cancellation. None of the trucks that we have done have had that
@@octanetvchannel , how would I know if my truck has the noise cancelling?
If it has bose it has anc
Do you need to tap into additional wires if you are adding 2 subs? Thanks!
Not unless you want to run them in stereo instead of moni
I got the same exact setup, but i have an issue when i shut the door the amp shuts off and turn back on. Not sure if you have a solution?
could potentially be a problem with you having a upper trim model. I've heard rumors about this where it has the noise cancellation or active cancelization which could be causing that
Any suggestions on a box for a 2022 c canyon crew cab
Those new rear seats make it tricky to mount amps on the rear cab wall, think compact. Lol
Does this truck have the Bose system?
Yes
Anybody knows what are the colors you need to tap into on a 22’ elevation non-Bose???Thanks in advance👍🏽
Do you remember what size connector you used 7:29 for the remote wire? There are a ton online.
Thank you
14-16 female spade connector. The numbers refer to the wire gauge.
I have a 22 Silverado 1500 custom (non Bose) am I running the sni-35 on the passenger side also with the yellow wires? Does it matter which speaker wires you connect to?
Wish I could see where you ran your 4 Gauge from the cab to the lug
We have a ton of these Silverado videos it should be in most of them
@@octanetvchannel I actually found it on one of your video. Easy feed through. Thank you sir.
can you use the sni 15 converter? confused on the difference
Would this all apply the same for a 2020 2500 highcountry
It should be the same
Do the new chevys have noise cancelling mics? Or are both them for bluetooth and onstar?
I like the video you made the did same work to mi 2020 gnc sierra and i don't like the sound bass how is sounds is any better audio bass to due tanks
Is this the same for a 22 2500hd
What adjustments if any do you do to the RCA converter?
IF BOSE, WHY USING A DOOR SPEAKER, NEED TO USE SUB WIRE. DOOR SPEAKER HAS A HI PASS CROSS OVER BUILT INTO THE BOSE AMP!
We haven't had an issue with it this way. Do you happen to know where the subwire is?
Blue/grey(+), and green/black(-), can be found either at the amp at back wall, or in center console if you remove the plastic panel on the passenger side, twisted pair ran on its own.
More money on sound deadening than speakers in the 07
Do you sell the closure for a 10"?
We have the links in the description to purchase them off of Amazon
There’s no way we didn’t get a sound test are you serious?
The only loc’s that are any good are by audio control & kicker, the rest put out distortion.
What frequency is that box tuned at?
It is a sealed box
What loc do I need for the 22 silverado
?
Use any of the Loc links we having the description of the video. Any of those three will work
Thank you. Would you happen to know if the install is basically the same as a 21 silverado just for an amp
