I bought my truck 3 months ago with 7 miles on it. It’s the 2009, Silver, 4×4, Double Cab, Long Bed, Hood Scoop, TRD, Tow Package… I couldn’t wait to rip out the sound system and put in something awesome. Well, my week long project is finally complete! Thanks to TacoTunes for some great ideas and great products supplied. The setup includes a long list of items… some I purchased on my own, such as headunit, bluetooth, XM, iPod connector, Amps, FatMat… and the rest I purchased from TacoTunes. I was pleasantly surprised to see such great quality and great looking items that I received.
Stock storage bins… those came out with a quickness.
Bare back after everything was pulled.
Took my Dremmel, cut the back out of the driver’s side compartment as so to make room for the sub box.
The front looks like this after the two side cuts… then had to cut the top off.
Looks like this…
Took the wirebrush attachment and cleaned up the cut plastic for a smoother edge.
The other compartment… final look. Note, I had to cutout the little tray. There are instructions on how to do this on TacoTunes.com
Final product.

Here’s all the stuff going in.
Massive power wire attached to battery!! 20 feet of it… felt like 20 lbs!
Main power wire is red, blue power wire 4 gauge from the distro block to amps, 4 gauge brown ground wire for amps, and many feet of tweeter wire, speaker wires, and sub wire
RCA’s from HU to amps, fuse block w/ custom engine compartment mount, distro power block, custom speaker mounts for the doors.
Pioneer AVIC-Z2 Hard Drive Navigation & Media Center, iPod Adapter, and Boyo Backup Cam. Didn’t have the boxes for my XM and Bluetooth.
FatMat… great stuff. Got off Ebay… 50 sq ft for $80 shipped.
Amp Mounting board and blue plexiglass

TacoTunes custom sub box.
Install started with prying out the temp controls. Again, these instructions can be found on TacoTunes.com. I would recommend using a butter knife. My SOG knife was a bit sharp and can slice right through plastic.
Disconnected the temp controls.
My RCA hookups and amp remote wire connections.
Here is where I tapped into for the Reverse Sensor Wire… It’s on this connector… the red wire. This is behind the driver side kick panel.
NaBehind the coin tray, left of the steering wheel… there’s your fuse box. I tapped into the black connector here for the Speed Sensor Wirevigation Stereo installation GPS Steering Wheel Control Toyota Tacoma
Navigation SterHere’s my XM unit. It’s mounted to the computer bracket behind the glove box and above the right side kick panel. I used tie wraps. Kindof ghetto, but it worked nicely! Also shown is the TSS-Radio XM antenna wire that connects to the factory antenna… found here: http://www.tss-radio.com/lexus-shark…er-p-5647.htmleo installation GPS Steering Wheel Control Toyota Tacoma
Further back view.
Here is the factory XM antenna connector… behind driver’s side kick panel.
Radios… changing of the guard.
Here’s the HU installed… I created a custom background in photoshop.
Mounted my bluetooth mic here. No one ever sees it there.
Mounted the bluetooth adapter here, under the cup holder in the center console.
iPod adapter went on the other side.
iPod cable routed here for now. I hook it to my iPhone since that’s where I normally keep it.
Door work time… disassembly instructions can be found on TacoTunes.com. Left Front Door.

Rear wall… FatMatted.
Preparing the massive Power wire for insertion. I hooked mine like a fish and taped it real tight… the sprayed it with lubricant. There was really only one opening to go through. I HIGHLY recommend using a lubricant spray of some sort! Also especially helpful when wiring speaker wire through the door tubes. After sprayed, the wires slip right in, through, and out… like a wet turd. =)
This process was not easy. Kindof like shoving a MK-48 Adcap Missile through a basketball hoop. It’s not going to happen without a little force. I’m not gonna lie… there was a little cursing, but I wised up, carefully cut a small slit, and use PLENTY of lube. Sounds so dirty, but just as satisfying in the end. It ended up out right in the end.
Here’s the Fuse Box connected and showing voltage.
Another pic…
Here’s the Fuse Box connected and showing voltage.
Run through here… BTW, NO… running it next to my speaker wires does not affect my sound in any way. Everything was grounded correctly and those wires are seriously insulated.
In the back now… drilled some holes and pulled all the wires through.
How to set gain on alpine pdx amp
Prepping the amp board for amp installation… pre-drilling holes.
Turning the amp board over… mounted the crossovers from the XS package and power distro block on the back. Also pre-drilled holes for wire insertion to the other side.
Close up of crossovers. Had to take the covers off to set the correct pins for the speaker setup.
This was in the amp testing stage. I recorded a disk with 10 second clips, one of 1000 hz (for setting gain on 4 channel amp) and the other a 50 hz (for setting gain on single channel sub amp). I had the individual tracks play over and over so I could test the amps and tweek the gain for their respective tones… this is so I’m getting max use of my amps without blowing anything. You can also do this by ear by turning the gain up and listening for distortion and turning back down a little. I just wanted to be a little more precise. I have the formula for finding out these settings if anyone wants it.
Here’s the multimeter hooked up while the tones play and give me a reading.
LED’s mounted in the amp box.
Everything hooked up, ready for amps to be installed and connected.
Close up picture of wiring and crossovers.
Another view. Note I have tie wraps cut real low on the rear speaker wires. This is so I didn’t get them confused with the front speaker wires on their respective sides.
Pulled through, ready for amp install.
Hooked up… Lit up!

Enclosure Notes* The enclosure recommendations listed above are external dimensions which assume the use of 0.75 in (19 mm) thick material. If you are using 0.625 in (16 mm) thick material, subtract 0.25 in (6.5 mm) from each dimension. Do not use any material with a thickness of less than 0.625 in (16 mm) as this may compromise the rigidity of the enclosure. * All enclosure volumes listed above are net internal volumes! Driver displacement, port displacement and brace displacement must be added to obtain the final gross internal volume. All enclosure dimensions above have already taken this into account. * When using multiple subwoofers in a common enclosure you will need to recalculate the enclosure and port dimensions. For assistance please contact your authorized JL Audio dealer or JL Audio Technical Support. * We recommend the use of this speaker in a bi-amplified system using high-quality satellite speakers and a high-quality amplifier. We do not recommend the use of this subwoofer with a passive crossover (coil), as this type of device will adversely affect performance. * All specifications are subject to change without notice.
Prolonged exposure to sound pressure levels in excess of 100dB can cause permanent hearing loss. This high-performance speaker can exceed this level. Please exercise restraint in its operation in order to preserve your ability to enjoy its fidelity.
When installing a subwoofer in your vehicle, it is extremely important to secure the enclosure firmly. We recommend bolting the enclosure through the metal of the floorpan or the frame of the vehicle with large diameter washers for reinforcement. If an enclosure is not firmly attached, it can become a projectile in a collision. This is particularly important in a hatchback, station wagon, sports utility vehicle, or van.
If you are wondering, How to install tweeters in to your Toyota Tacoma, you have come to the right place!
2016+ Toyota Tacoma
2005-2015 Toyota Tacoma
If you are considering installing aftermarket tweeters in your Toyota Tacoma, please take a few minutes and review the information below. I am fairly certain all your questions will be answered. This page was composed in an effort to answer the MANY questions and concerns we receive regarding tweeters installation in your Toyota Tacoma.
Tweeter Installation FAQ:
Q: How do I install tweeters in my Toyota Tacoma?
By using a component set and our speaker & tweeter adapters, you can quickly and easily install an aftermarket component set into your Toyota Tacoma. We offer custom sized tweeter mounts to help you get them installed quickly and easily. Be sure to check out the videos below for detailed installation tips. Don’t forget to check out our pre-packaged component sets and speaker / tweeter installation kits in our shopping cart.
Q: My tweeters say they are 1″, why do I need to order custom sized mounts?
In MOST cases aftermarket tweeters will be larger than 1″. In most cases 1″ refers to the surface area of the tweeter itself. The mounting diamter is usually larger. Most manufacters will provided the cutout or mounting diamter. This refers to the size of “hole” you need to mount the tweeters. We offer custom sizing as explained in your videos below.
Q: Do I need to use the passive crossover that was included with my component set? Can I just use the existing wiring in my Toyota Tacoma?
Y – E – S! You must use the crossovers included in your component speaker setup. In most cases, if you do not use the crossover you will damage the tweeters by introducing the lower frequency range they are not equipped to handle. The stock wiring coming from your Toyota Tacoma (at time of this post) is NOT equipped with a crossover. NOTE: If you are running an active crossover system, you probably don’t need to be reading this informationJ.
Q: Can I install aftermarket tweeters by using the factory speaker wire?
Yes, but see the detailed information below.
Q: I already installed a set of 6×9 or 6.5 inch speakers and want to add a tweeter; can I add these to my existing speakers?
Possibly, however, please see below for detailed answer.
Detailed answer to questions above:
In our opinion, the best case scenario to add tweeters to your Toyota Tacoma is to purchase a component set. Component sets generally include a midrange woofer, tweeter & passive crossover. This type of system will provide the best case scenario for a number of reasons. 1. The tweeter & midrange woofer will be properly “matched” to produce the best frequency range. Additionally, it will avoid duplicating signal and wasting power coming from the same speaker system. 2. You will be providing the correct resistance load (Ohms) to your head unit or amp. 3. Alleviates nuances and installation complications of adding mismatched drivers. NOTE: Stand alone tweeters are generally equipped with an inline crossover.
Check out our plug and play tweeter wire harness adapters:
If you already purchased speakers and would like to add tweeters this is possible. However, you need to consider the following. You MUST have a crossover in place to protect the tweeter from lower frequency range. Some aftermarket / stand – alone tweeters have these “inline”. An example is the:
You would run this in “parallel” with your existing speaker. However, this creates a “potential” problem. When you wire two drivers in parallel, you will change the resistance and final load (Ohm) delivered to your head unit or amp. In most cases you will end up with a 2 Ohm load. Most head units are not setup to handle the heat generated by a 2 ohm load. This will lead to premature head unit failure due to excessive heat. Many amplifiers can handle a 2 ohm load. Ok so now the power issue is explained now you have a staging issue to contend with. Your speakers and tweeters will now be producing the same frequency range. This is because your speakers have built in tweeters as well.
We are not stating this will not work, it is just not best practice. And, in many cases your general car audio enthusiast will be happy with the ‘extra” signal they are getting.
NOTE: Our mission is to provide the best sound system and quality. Therefore we do NOT suggest adding stand – alone tweeters to your sound system. Again, we are not stating it does not work, it is simply does not meet industry standards for best practice.
In an effort to provide the best and most cost effective way of adding aftermarket tweeters to your Toyota Tacoma. We are not implying it is the only method.
General Questions:
What is a tweeter and why do I need one:
Currently, (this was published 2013), technology does not provide a single “driver” that is able to reproduce the entire audio frequency range audible to a human being. Humans in general can process an audible frequency range between 20Hz & 20,000Hz.
NOTE: Many people refer to drivers as speakers, when in fact speakers are comprised of a set of drivers joined together to create a speaker system. A tweeter is not a speaker, it is actually a driver, just like a midrange woofer or subwoofer are actually drivers. If you want a sound system to reproduce sound accurately and with great clarity a good set of drivers is required.
Q: Is tweeter placement important?:
Tweeter placement is the MOST important of all drivers. The higher the frequency range the more directional it becomes. Check out the videos below on understanding the frequency range.
Q: What is crossover and why do I need it.
There are two types of crossovers that we use in car audio; active and passive. In this answer, we will cover a passive crossover. If you are familiar with active crossovers, you probably don’t need to be reading this information J. The basic task for a passive crossover is to send the high frequency signal to the tweeter and the lower frequency signal to the mid range driver/woofer.. A crossover is basically two frequency filters working in parallel. A high pass section and a low pass section. The high pass section passes high frequencies, the low pass passes low frequencies. The high pass is placed in series with the tweeter, and the low pass is in series with the woofer. Generally speaking a two way crossover will have six terminals. Two in (signal from head unit or amp) , and four out (signal out to tweeter and mid range). Usually the two sections (high-pass and low-pass) are in parallel and both sections ONLY work properly when the woofer and tweeter are both attached and operational.
