Just did it yesterday.
1. The access from the driver footwell into the engine bay is a rubber membrane located high up the footwell above your left foot. I used an Xactio knife to slit it.
2. Push the naked end of the wire through. Once the end is through, you will see it poking out when you...

Not sure 2ohm was the right choice. I'm a newbie. Anyone have some guidance on this? My sub is married to the Fusion amp
Is anyone in this thread running a fusion amp/sub combo in the rear sub location with a Kicker Key 200.4 driving the front 4 and 2 pods(dash and pods 4" - kick panel Stock 6.5's)?
I'm curious how it works out with the sub being completely independent of the kicker ecosystem. If anyone IS...
I just spoke to Crutchfield and asked the question. Austin(their tech support) said the algorithm won't have a problem with the 6 speaker into 4 channel configuration. Where I have a concern/question is the correct way to shut down and reactivate the sub, which is a kicker 6.75 on a fusion sub...
I was told the power coming out of the ACM will not be as stable and "fluctuation free" as power coming directly from the battery terminal. I'm not an installer nor electrically fluent, so I am now officially out of my paygrade, so ChatGPT says...
Drawing power directly from the battery is...
@RagnarKon @JimV @plugnplaykits @Szarko @redone17 Just spoke with Joe at PlugNPlay. Yes, I pulled the trigger on the amp, harness and power wire. He STRONGLY advised wiring to the battery. He said it's no big deal. There's a pre-existing hole filled in by a grommet in the firewall easily...
You stated that the install of the amp using the plugnplaykits harness was straightforward and took about 90 minutes. Ragnarkonās video made it appear much more daunting. What were the most difficult aspects of the installation? Iām looking to mount the amp on the metal plate under the steering...
Do you think itās necessary? Iām trying to keep it as simple as possible. Plugnplayās harness seems the simplest. I also planned on mounting to the plate under the steering column, but getting the connector to the amp felt to me like I could break shit in the process. It seemed challenging for...
@RagnarKon @67BroncoG1 @plugnplaykits
Does this harness with the 11 kit pull power from the head unit or from the battery? Iāve been reading if the power is pulled from the head unit clipping can be an issue.
Is the reason bass blockers are needed on the fronts but not the pods is that the fronts are running through the kick panel speakers on the same channel? I am going to install the 200.4 Kicker key amp for the fronts and pods. Iām hoping all issues are resolved.
Is anyone running this EXACT hardware configuration, and if so, what are your Forscan settings?

6.75ā Kicker sub. I used the 8 mounting holes on the speaker. I drilled holes for the screws, lined the enclosure circumference with soft rubber stripping to control vibration. Itās rock solid.
sorry if I missed it, but what did you do about the other speakers? Upgradeā¦stock?
