I am sure Acani is a giant Chinese conglomerate established to take advantage of Americans trying to save a buck. I ordered what was supposed to be a 3D wooden map of the world that you hung on your wall, piece by piece. It was an educational item I purchased for my 12 year old grandson for Christmas. After a month on order I received a flimsy cardboard tube from Acani. Inside was a vinyl map of the world in black and white. I arbitrated thru EBay and received half of the $49 I spent on what was to be a multi piece wooden 3 dimensional map. When I see Acani on a product I run the other way. Total disreputable company…aka junk product clearinghouse.

are you using the oem radio headunit? also, did you hook up an amp to the sub? if so, where? looks great!

Thank you, I tried to make it a clean install.

This is a powered subwoofer which contains an amp inside (all inclusive). I have an aftermarket Pioneer AVH-2550NEX Head unit. You can use the original HU as it only has Hi input (speaker wires from HU) signal from amp, no RCA’s which is how I wired it.


They do have an adapter which you purchase separate and wires into RCA jacks and can then plug into HU Subwoofer output which I was considering. Going to do more research to see if it improves sound quality or not. This was my short term plan for a quick cost effective install. Long term plan is to get a 5 Channel amp under driver seat and add a real sub I can take out and still have a little bass when it’s removed for trips.

Ah thank you thank you. please keep us updated, would love to see the future setup. Yeah, I just want a little thump but don't want to waste space for a sub/box.

Replaced engine mounts, vibration is gone, no thump feeling when stopping.
P.s. this job was a pain, especially l/s mount and also aftermarket mounts had to be modified to fit properly.

Love this. Need a sub without loosing cargo space and minimal wiring. Thanks for sharing.

Long 3 day camping weekend with my GF, which included a run from Silverton to Lake City. My 4runner performed flawlessly and I was impressed with my new KO2s

So was getting tired of the aux jack and Monster Cable for the mp3 player cutting out. Then it just died. So removed the button slot cover between the heated seat controllers and DAC button. Cut the end of the cover, so that the clip that snaps in is left. Used E-6000 adhesive to hold both pieces in (strong enough it aint goin nowhere, but you could still remove it without destroying anything). Just left the old jack in place, to cover the hole. Cable from the harness is long enough, but you cant lift the console/shifter cover up as far. Jack fits tight and flush.

Curious, should that have said, "You can't use the original HU..."?

Went to get state inspection done. Totally forgot I had disconnected the battery a week ago to test something out.

Don't forget to drive 50+ miles for a reset before getting your inspection done -_-

Negative, you can use the factory HU or aftermarket.

The signal from the powered sub hooks to the speaker wire outputs.

Okay, thanks. I have an old Bazooka tube behind the driver's seat and it's hooked up through the speaker wires. I've had that thing for going on 15 years and it's still pounding away.

Dropped the t-case. Got a used one to replace. Old one had a hole knocked into the side of it after the front driveshaft broke loose.

I got the 4Runner from my neighbor. Replacing the t-case, new driveshafts, new headlight assemblies, new windshield, and a bunch of little stuff like dash lights, hood struts, new stereo and speakers all around, etc.

Once I get the t-case back in it's going for a timing belt, I'm not going to try and tackle that one since I can't get it in the garage.
