Post stereo install pics

After researching the Metra piece it doesn’t look like his has as many RCA channels as the Nav TV or a Toslink option. It does only retail for $359 though.

You don’t need more than 2 channels. Front left and right are full frequency signals. Toslink is only 2 channel left and right as well.

I’d stay away from the NAV tv unit.

That is a big statement to make. Do you have an alternative to offer? What is your experience? Do you have a build you can post?

Lol. Bold statement with zero context. NavTV builds some phenomenal hardware. I can’t say enough about their quality and customer service.

There isn’t an alternative. I would be willing to bet user error and no attempt to contact NavTV for assistance.

@dhmcfadin or @gijosh28 - can I see better pics how you tied back into the speaker outputs from the B&O amp? Did you order and use the connectors from digikey?

I pulled each pin from the NAVTV connector and soldered each speaker wire according the NAVTV digram they provided in the instructions and then inserted each pin back in. NAVTV harness then plugs into B&O amp connector.

We did use the Digikey connectors, but we did not use the original speaker wires. We re-wired the mids and highs (except for inside the drivers and passengers doors).

Part 1 of my install.

And of coarse, part 2.

If anyone is interested, the box, subs, grills, and seat lift kit are all for sale from this install.

Thanks,
Josh

I've watched about a million of those Five Star videos. Top notch work for sure.

Yeah they did a nice job. I will probably have them do my next truck.
