Will Rockford Fosgate T1692 Rockford T165 fit Toyota 4Runner
Leonard:
According to the specs below (taken from RF website), those 6x9s are WAY to deep to fit in your 4Runner’s front doors. We don’t recommend going over 3.15″ top mount depth. The Rockford T165 will work fine in the read door of your Toyota 4Runner.
While it is possible to use more spacers to gain additional top mount depth you will be faced with a second problem. The speakers will get to close or touch the door panel. This will damage the speakers. Per our speaker guidelines for a 4Runner you should look for speakers that are below3″ top mount depth. Have you considered our Image Dynamics CTX6x9 bundle? WE have a lot of happy 4Runner owners with this setup.

To install Kicker 40CSS674 Component Speakers into your Toyota 4Runner, you will want to use tacotunes.com speaker adapters designed to work in your 4Runner. The Kicker 40CSS674 Component Speakers Speakers require a 5.6″ cutout diameter for the mid range speakers. The Kicker 40CSS674 tweeters will require a 1.577″ cutout diameter.
Ultimate reliability and tremendous audio clarity provide the makeup for RS-Series Matched Component Systems.
These outstanding midrange/tweeter/crossover combos use most all of the technologies of supreme QS-Series Systems, giving music lovers yet another source for a complete range of the smoothest, richest frequencies available. The RS-Series offers a more affordable option for those who seek genuine KICKER high-end performance from their mobile-audio system.
The RS65.2 (featuring a 6.5-inch midrange woofer) and RS60.2 (a true 6-inch midrange that also fits 5.25-inch location) let their primary sound flow through speakers that use a polyimide former and copper-clad aluminum wire to help decrease hot temperatures within the motor. Cast-aluminum baskets with nickel-plated, spring-loaded terminals provide additional protection and result in a more durable driver and higher power handling.
Each system’s one-inch, high-end tweeter pair with advanced DuPont® Tetoron® elliptical domes can be installed in a flush, angled, surface, or coaxial mount, the latter allowing the installer to remove aluminum phase plugs from the midrange speakers’ centers and screw in special adapters and tweeters. RS-Series tweeters exude a wider dispersion pattern for greatly increased detail in high frequencies.
Redesigned crossovers make RS Component Systems more flexible and reliable than ever, and they look great in a custom install. Configuration choice rests with the listener – the new 2-way bi-ampable passive crossovers have 18 dB/ octave highpass and 12 dB/ octave lowpass filters at 3.5kHz to optimize output. A tweeter output-level switch (0dB, +3dB, +6dB) determines tweeter volume, while the crossover itself provides incandescent tweeter protection

PIONEERING AN IDEAL Absolute fidelity to musical sources takes form from speakers that reproduce the ambience in which sounds originate. Stage size, musicians’ movement, aural reflection and other distinctive details all bring these sounds to life. Pioneer D-Series speakers are available in 2-way component packages or 2-way coaxial designs in multiple sizes that fit most vehicles.
WHAT IS “OPEN & SMOOTH?” The “Open & Smooth” sound concept of our industry-leading speakers delivers both sonic excellence and performance. The open-staging and smooth transition of driver response makes for an immersive experience that is truly the ultimate in-car sound.
Open: Open staging and sound characteristics enhance the widening effect that extends way beyond the space between speakers.
Smooth: With smooth transitions between mid-bass and tweeter, sound from these speakers is not marred by crossover frequency dips.
DUAL-LAYER IMX ARAMID/BASALT FIBER COMPOSITE CONE To create new D-Series speakers, Pioneer developed the industry’s first basalt fiber made from natural rock interwoven with aramid fiber. Used in the surface layer, this dual-layer IMX (injection molded matrix) aramid/basalt fiber composite material is highly rigid and better absorbent, enhancing stability and maintaining integrity throughout a wide temperature range.
REAR CHAMBER TWEETER ENCLOSURE D-Series speakers feature an exclusive rear chamber tweeter enclosure that we first used in our famed PRS speakers. It extends mid-range frequency for improved vocal imaging and staging.
HIGH-QUALITY CROSSOVER The built-in -12dB/Octave HPF and LPF crossover improves the transition from mid to high frequency, for a smoother mid-range to tweeter response. Audiophile-grade capacitors and inductors are used, and all components are encased in a clear acrylic cover for protection.

How to install component speakers 2010+ Toyota 4Runner
If you are planning to install new after-market component speakers in your 2010+ Toyota 4Runner, we provide step by step instructions on using your stock wiring without any cutting or splicing.
In the 2010+ Toyota 4Runner, Toyota wired the front door speakers and the front dash speakers (tweeters) in parallel. In short, the stock tweeters and door speakers are wired together. When you disconnect the stock tweeter, the door speaker loses signal.
To overcome this challenge, we offer this custom harness for your Toyota Tacoma.
Toyota 4Runner Tweeter Wire Harness Adapter Interface
In the picture above you will see wires coming out of the tweeter wire harness adapter. Pin 1 (positive) & Pin 3 (negative) are the signal wires coming from your stock stereo (head unit). Pin 2 (positive) & Pin 4 (negative) are signal wires running to your door speakers.
In the youtube video below, we will show you show you how to install component speakers using our tweeter wire harness adapter.
The signal coming from the head unit (PINS 1/3) will be connected to the IN+ / IN- on the passive crossover. The signal going to your door speakers (PINS 2/4) will be connected to the W+ / W- on your crossover T+ and T- need to be plugged into your new aftermarket tweeter.
NOTE: You MUST use the passive crossover that is included with your component speaker set. If you apply power to your tweeters without the crossover in place, the lower mid bass frequencies will damage the tweeters. Please note some standalone tweeters do not require a separate crossover as they are equipped with a type of on board passive crossover. We HIGHLY recommend purchasing a matched component set to avoid potential issues.
The second challenge in removing your stock dash speaker / tweeter is the shape of the stock tweeter. You will need a tweeter adapter similar to this one:
When you remove your stock speaker from the front door in your Toyota Tacoma you will need a speaker mounting adapter and speaker wire harness adapter.

How to keep your stock factory Entune stereo and add an amplifier sound processor equalizer
Easily add an amplifier to your Toyota Entune Factory Stereo
How to keep your stock factory Entune stereo and add an amplifier sound processor equalizer – Love your Toyota 4Rnnner, but not really enjoying the sound quality coming from the factory Entune stereo? Until recently, many audio enthusiasts (including myself) looking for great sound quality would generally recommend replacing the factory Entune stereo (head unit) with a QUALITY aftermarket head unit. Why? Because most qualityaftermarket head units are setup for great sound – they are NOT detuned like factory head units. It used to be VERY difficult to get great sound quality from a factory Entune stereo. Sure you can make it “loud” but loud does not mean great sound quality. However, recent technological advances in factory head units have made complete stereo replacement less practical.These days Toyota is including a ton of great features in their factory Entune stereos. AT the time of this post, many of the stock head units have Bluetooth, Internet search capability, navigation (GPS), steering wheel controls, IPod and auxiliary inputs, HD radio, satellite radio and the list just goes on and on. So it really does not make sense to replace the stock head unit when it includes all these great features. Plus a car stereo that looks factory, or “stealth,” is more likely to deter thieves. After a large number of requests from Toyota 4Runner owners we decided to produce a product that makes it easy to keep your factory Entune stereo while paving the road to AMAZING sound quality.
YES WORKS WITH NON ENTUNE UNITS ALSO!
.
Tacotunes is excited to introduce the ReCurve EZQ. The ReCurve EZQ has been in development for nearly 3 years. We have been testing it in a number of Toyotas here in San Antonio. From base model Toyota 4Runner to Limited or Platinum, this little “magic box” will help you get the sound you are craving from your stock Entune stereo. PLUS, installation is a SNAP! NO wire cutting, splicing, or soldering. Simply plug it in and you are ready to add one or more amplifiers to your Toyota. Gone are the days of wondering, “Will this unit work with my version of Windows or support an Apple? What did I do with the configuration CD? Why can’t I use my steering wheel controls anymore?” No more wasting countless hours reviewing wiring diagrams followed by ruining the factory wiring harness.
To make it even easier, we will provide a template to help you tune the EZQ for you Toyota 4Runner Entune system when you provide the year and body style. PLUS, if you purchase one of our turn-key sound quality turnkey packages (delete one of the “turn-key”s), this unit will be setup for plug and play from front to back. Of course everyone has different listening taste, so not only did make easy to install, the Tacotunes ReCurve EZQ is also EXTREMELY easy to adjust.
Our goal was simple. Make it quick and easy to restore amazing sound to your “detuned” factory head unit. Whether you like more or less bass, brighter highs or even want to adjust the mid bass to your desire, it could not be easier than using the ReCurve EZQ.
So what exactly does the ReCurve EZQ do for my audio system? The short version: the ReCurve EZQ takes the audio signal coming for your factory head unit, restores the frequencies that have been reduced /detuned by Toyota, then supplies a balanced preamp output to your amp(s). Additionally, you have the ability to adjust the sound to your taste! Want more bass? Want less highs? Not a problem! Be sure to check out our installation videos. We walk you through the entire process.

FAQ:
Does this work with the Entune system?
YES! It also works with a number of Toyota 4Rnner. We have tested this unit from 2007 Toyota 4Runner to the 2014 Toyota 4Runner with / without Entune. When you order you will be prompted to include the year and model of your 4Runner to ensure we send the correct items you will need to get this installed quickly and easily
Do I need an amplifier too, or does the TACQEzQ help my speakers sound better?
The ReCurve EZQ is not an amplifier, as stated above. The primary purpose of the TACOEzQ is to restore the audio frequencies your amplifier(s) need to obtain great sound quality from your stock head unit. Yes, you will need an amp(s), depending on what you plan to install in your Toyota. Be sure to check out our turnkey No need to waste a bunch of time trying to figure out what will work AND sound amazing!
Does tacotunes.com recommend an amp to work with the TACOEzQ?
We have tested and used this setup with a number of high quality amps to ensure the best solution for our customers. Our current list of amps that we recommend are as follows: (1) Exile Javelin 5 Channel Amplifier (2) Alpine PDXV9 Amplifier 5 Channel Amplifier (3) JL Audio HD900/5. However, you can use just about any quality amplifier. Some other examples, Alpine PDXF4 and Alpine PDXM6 amps can be used together . . We have started to offer the Exile Javelin amp as our primary amp in our SQ1 packages. The Exile amp will fit under the front seat of your Toyota, provide nearly 100 watts to Front and Rear speakers AND a whopping 800 watts to the subwoofer. This is a perfect match for our SQ1 system. Remote bass knob makes it a perfect setup for in-car listening and crank it up tailgating sound!
Why do I need the Recuve EzQ? I have used line out converters (LOC) in the past . . LOCs will do the same thing, right?
You can use LOCs to obtain a louder system. However, most of our customers are looking for sound quality not just volume. As we have mentioned above, most auto manufacturers including Toyota will detune a system by reducing frequencies the stock system is unable to reproduce. Most auto manufacturers do this so they can squeeze more power out of the system and allow you to turn the volume up louder by powering the stock speakers with the frequency range they can handle. However, the reason you are reading this information is because of the crappy sound coming from your stock speakers J. Also in most cases, people have used one LOC to add a subwoofer to the factory system. Sure you will get some bass, but it will leave you wondering it just doesn’t sound right. If you used LOCS to setup front, rear and subwoofer outputs you would need multiple LOCS. Plus you will still be spending hours trying to locate wires only to end up with a subpar system. Regardless of the quality of the LOC that you use, an LOC does not restore the missing frequencies. And most of the requests that lead to the development of the Recruve EzQ came from folks that initially installed LOCs or lower quality units that try to perform the same functions as the ReCurve EZQ.
There are similar products to the ReCurve EZQ. What makes this unit better?
First off, our plug and play system is the first of its kind in the industry. At the time we released/began field testing the ReCurve EZQ. No other manufacturer was offering a turnkey wiring harness and equalization device geared directly toward the Toyota 4Runner market. Additionally, we have not seen any systems that offer an optional subwoofer control module, an auxiliary input, and use only high quality materials in the production of the unit. Just one look at Recruve EzQ and you can see the high quality parts and design. The RCA input// output connectors we used are the same you will find on high end amplifiers and the tiffany style connectors ensure a long product life. The number one reason for failure in amps and head units is stress on the circuit boards caused by cutting corners on RCA connections.
notes:
We build our systems for sound quality. I often get requests from customers that want to add a sub to their stock system. My personal opinion is why would you go through all the work of running power wire, run RCA(s) and then end up with a system that has a subwoofer that drowns out the rest of the system? I try to understand how some people just like bass only, but I can’t! When people listen to our systems, I always here the same thing: “WOW! That is so clear and balanced.” The highs, mids and subs all work together to create amazing sound. My biggest satisfaction is when I turn the keys over to a customer as he / she grins from ear to ear!
Line Out Converters (bolded) Personal opinions on LOCs: I have heard a lot of systems that used LOCs to connect the stock head unit to aftermarket amps. Quite honestly, a lot of guys are just happy with a louder system. Our goal is not to create LOUD systems but rather amazing sound that enhances your drive time. A byproduct is the ability to turn up the sound LOUD and enjoy music while tailgating. However our first goal is to achieve a sound paradise in your Toyota 4Runner.
Powered Subs
I have been in car audio for many years. I started at age 15 tinkering with my first hand me down car. My first installation, I used a voltmeter and black tape to add an aftermarket system without using a harness adapter (YUK what a messy installation). Spent hours figuring out the color codes and splicing the factory wire harness. My first subwoofer was a powered “tube” subwoofer. I don’t want to mention product names, but you can get the picture. At first I was happy with what I thought was bass. But as each day went by I was not happy with the sound quality. My grandfather used to tell me. A “smart” person learns from his own mistakes. A “wise” man learns from other people’s mistakes. My point? I want to help guide you so you avoid making the same mistakes I, along with millions of others, have made in building an audio system. All that to say, powered subwoofers will leave you wanting more. IMO, save your money and do it right. A subwoofer requires three things: power, mass and control. At this point in time there is no way to reproduce the lower end of the frequency range without a subwoofer. To do this you need a good amount of power, the mass and “excursion” of a subwoofer and the control of a good quality subwoofer and the box that is matched to the subwoofer. When all the parts work together NO one will say they don’t need a subwoofer when they hear a properly tuned system.
