    Hey all, Got a Wrangler JK 2017. Working on doing some upgrades to it, want to mess with the audio system a bit and just did a very easy swap of the OEM speakers to the Kicker replacement ones -- see image below: It's definitely better than stock, happy with the upgrade. However, now I've...

    Morning, I'm noodling a entertainment system upgrade to my 18 JKU Sahara. It came with the basic UConnect/CD system. I'd appreciate thoughts from the forum on replacing it with the Alpine iLX-W650 Digital Multimedia Receiver. Also, from what I've read, even though the unit is satellite radio...

    Question for others who have the Alpine i509 installed and use Apple CarPlay, especially wirelessly since thats how I use it. How long does it take after you start up your Jeep, the start up screen cycles, you see the Alpine home screen and then CarPlay begins and your music/podcast resumes. I...

    2003 TJ - SAHARA > 90K Miles Hello boyz and gurlz, Bought a new stereo unit (Alpine with Apple 'Carplay') and it accepts a plug-n-play backup camera. I do NOT need a view screen because the unit has one that fits after swapping out the OEM dash console. I DO need some recommendations on a...

    I've been awaiting the release of the Alpine i509 for JKs for awhile, and while Crutchfield has yet to receive any, stumbled on a retailer that sells on Amazon that has them in stock NOW. I called Alpine who pointed me to their Store Locator of official retailers and the seller, Pacific Stereo...

    Anybody else have an Alpine ILX-207 head unit in their JK? Can't figure out what the factory media tab does. I have the android auto, bluetooth, radio, gps, and everything else working but not sure what the factory media is for. Would like to delete or hide it if it doesn't do anything.

    I have recently acquired a 2014 JKU and it came with the Alpine X209 stereo installed. It has both front and rear camera. I was wondering if there is the option to record video with these cams. Did any of you manage to do so?

    Does anyone know what the orange/white wire and the green/white wire that come from the green pin connector on the maestro rr do? I bought a used alpine head unit that brings the maestro and both of these wires are sniped, so not sure if they are not used or if they were just cut.

    Hello everyone! I have a 2013 Jeep Wrangler Moab and I am trying to install a truconnect tc-loc2 to my radio to add a aftermarket sub. Attached is what I have on my harness and what the truconnect wants to connect with. If anyone can let me know how to wire this the right way that would be...

    Anyone relocate the subwoofer on the right side of the cargo area? On the older JKs (mine is 2012) it sticks out pretty significantly and takes up a bunch of space. I wish it was in the bottom of the cargo well like the later JKs.

    About a year ago I wanted to upgrade my factory subwoofer. My goal was to improve the sound and volume while retaining the stock enclosure, while still having a durable speaker grille. I was able to modify another Alpine subwoofer to meet this need, while retaining the factory speaker grille and...

    Anyone have experience with either and/or both the Alpine i209-WRA and x409-WRA-JK? Currently have an aftermarket headunit with Android Auto (which I really enjoy using) but the unit itself is pretty old and far from high quality. So, looking to upgrade. This will go into my '16 JKU Rubicon with...

    I'm new to the forum and rocking a 2015' Wrangler Unlimited JK that I've mostly done exterior mod's to thusfar. I recently installed a focal system for some better sound and determined that the tweeters sound like sh**t when bounced off of the front windshield (super tinny). I have them running...

    I just had a local car stereo shop install a pair of Alpine SPV-65x-WRA speakers in the dash and roll bar of my 2017 2-door JK, along with a 1000 watt sub (2 12's in a sealed box) and an amp (Alpine KTA-30FW, 75 watts RMS x 4) and a head unit (Alpine i207-WRA). To be completely honest, I really...

    I have a 2013 JKU Rubicon with the factory 'upgrade' Alpine upgrade stereo. I am looking to upgrade the overhead speakers without changing the head unit or amps for now. I have read many of the speaker upgrade posts. I am curious as to how many Ohms the factory Alpine overhead speakers are. Some...

    Hey everyone, I've been reading the forum for years to get information. Thanks to everyone. However, I have an issue now that I can't find any reference on the site. In December 2018 I installed the Alpine i207-wra in my 16 JKU. Everything worked well and loved the head unit. This week on...

    I've seen a bunch of individual threads talking about aftermarket stereo options for the Jeep Wrangler JK and while on a quest for my own personal upgrade I ended up with a large compilation of research and comparison data. Since my personal interest was the large-screen "Restyle" units the...
