Anyone have a blown 4.0L engine or bad block with crank?? I'm in CT. Thanks.

Make sure your rear wiper is all the way in its seat. If the rear wiper is not all the way in its seat, then the window safety switch is triggered and the window will not come down. Conversely, if the window is down, then the rear wiper will not work if it is turned on. So turn on the rear...

Re: OEM amp in 95 4runner? If the remote turn on lead is hooked up to power antennae, it could shut off the amp when the CD is played because the HU turns off the power antennae signal to lower the antennae and thus the amp is turned off. Look to see if you have a blue remote turn on wire...

I had a very easy time running power wire thru the firewall just left of the Brake MasterCylinder and just above/right of the steering stem while looking at the firewall in the engine bay. There is a nice grommet there that you can slice open and it feeds right under the dash just above the...

Interesting. everything I read says 6.5" for rear.

I got Polk audio db400s and db6500s for the rear. Their 4" drivers will fit, but for a small difference in the depth of the tweeter because there is a grill on the tweeter. You can install and let the dash cover bulge slightly or pry off the grill for the tweeter (which does nothing to sound)...

No. You are turning the HU up all the way and getting into distortion. The bass frequencies use more wattage and current to reproduce than high frequencies. So as you turn it up you are using up your 22 watts real quick. 22 watts is what you have continuously and 50 watts is what you have on...

I think your issue is that you have aftermarket speakers with a lower db rating and although the speakers are better quality they need more power to play them at the same volume. It is an efficiency issue. Get a 4 channel amp, 50 watts is a good amount for the four/six speaker set up in the...

YES!!!!!!! Do not get the Kenwoods and mix with Polks. I just got the db400's for my '95 4Runner. I went into the store, since I live here in Charlottesville and the problem with the Polk db400's is a depth clearance of .21". It is because the tweeter has a grille over it. It will make the...

Yes, personally, I like Sony HU, but rest of Sony stuff is crap IMO also, but check out what you like and stay away from some of the items listed before. It is possible to install everything yourself. I did with my first set up. I installed the HU and got a wire kit to use the existing...

MY REPLY IS IN QUOTE - ALL CAPS TO SEPARATE.

When you listen to a set in the store they will sound different in your car. If it is a box, then see if there is anyway you can have them run wires to your car with the box in it to listen to it. Just for the sub of course. Definitely listen to the speakers first and find out what is driving...

check out www.crutchfield.com I see those extra speakers too in mine. Looks like I will get the Polk db6500 which are 6.5" component speaker set. They are $180.00. You can find 4" speakers for around $100, no more. Amps - find something that has 50Wx4 or 60Wx4. You really don't need any...

system I got coming I got a Sony Xplod HU with AUX input for XM SKYFY2 and an ALPINE digital signal processor with active sub X-over and EQ. Polk db400s for front and db650s for back panel with a Profile 60Wx4 to power those and a pair of PYLE 10" PRO series woofers with a 2.5 or 3.0" VC...

Here is what I am looking into Polk db400 for fronts and db650s for rears. $180.00 for all 4 speakers. Go to www.crutchfield.com to check them out and any others you want. You fill out what kind of car you have in the 'What will fit my car' section and they will list all the speakers that...
