Hey All,
Quick update, so much going on I've not had time to complete my stereo install on my 2001 no-nav LC but am getting ready to tackle the amp and front doors (I DynaMatted and DynaLined both back doors along with new rear speaker install last weekend to get going). I want to better understand the amp install by listing what I think I know and asking for input. I'm adding a Morel 4.400 70x4 to power the doors and planning to add a powered sub soon. Will remove factory amp, install Morel under passenger seat, and plan to use factory wiring. Here goes:
-run fused power line from battery
-run RCA's from head unit to Morel
-ground Morel to chassis
-cut and connect 3 wires described here //tlcfaq.com/main/2012/05/land-cruiser-lx-470-stereo-wiring/
-cut and connect speaker wires to Morel amp
-QUESTION: what about remaining wires from S6 & S7 connectors? Is it simply cut and connect orange to orange, brown to brown, etc? This my biggest question.
Also, I mentioned adding a powered sub - thinking of the Kenwood KSC-PSW8. Dimensions are (W)13-3/4" x (H) 2-15/16" x (D)9-7/16"
- is there room under the driver seat?
-if not, would this fit where the factory sub box is if removed?
As always, thanks for all the help - especially for all the threads and good info already on the board. @RobRed @suprarx7nut
Also, will be adding a thread with install documentation for the DynaMat/DynaLiner in a separate thread as there's not much about it here. May do the same with the amp/powered sub/
