If you wish to have everything truly plug and play then I offer this service for an additional amount. You may purchase one from Amazon or from me for $50. The most popular way of doing this is by using a harness such as the FOR-11CK.
Now for the amp/sub stuff, you'll need to get a signal from the head unit back to the amplifier so it can provide sound to the speakers/sub. Once they have amplified power they will sing beautifully. These speakers will work without an amplifier but you'll only get a slight bump in performance on them. You'll then need to use a speaker wiring harness to clip into the factory clip, also provided with purchase. You'll need to install any speaker into an adapter plate which I would provide for free with purchase. Those Morels are super nice but no speaker will be plug and play unfortunately. if I need the amp to drive the Morel's from the start, then I'll rethink my approach. For phase (3), I'm assuming by having the amp under the seat, or behind the seat, I can plug and play a sub-woofer and the two additional speakers. Those two items I'll research down the road, and then add. (An initial poor man's way.) :-)Īdd a decent sub-woofer, and also upgrade those reused OEM speakers behind the seat with a better speaker setup. With Phase (2), I would reuse the OEM speakers to give the 4 speaker setup. Request that the amp be installed under the seat, or behind the back of the seat? that way, via RCA connectors, I can add components for phase (3). Have someone else install an amp, plus whatever else is needed for connecting to the factory head unit.
Maybe go with the Morel Tempo Ultra 692's? These are 6x9, and they're plug an play right into the factory harness? What about the Tweeters in the A-pillars? I would then save the OEM 6x9 door speakers for phase (2). I was figuring I could break this up into (3) phases. Plus, I also want to keep things looking factory. For reference, my RCSB only has the tweeters in the A-pillars, and only one speaker in each door. I'm thinking about doing the door speakers and A-pillar tweeter installs myself.

If you’re interested in transforming your car stereo system into something that’s detailed and realistic in both tonality and presentation, drop by our store and talk to one of our product specialists. In fact, he left us a glowing review on Google. He was amazed at the accuracy and detail and was thoroughly impressed at how much of a difference the DSP made. The client returned to Westminster Speed and Sound and got in the truck for a listen. It’s similar to what an audio engineer would hear sitting at the console in a recording studio when the music was created. This process results in the sound from each driver arriving at the listening position simultaneously so that the music sounds like it’s coming from the windshield rather than the speakers. We finished the project by using our real-time audio analyzer and our tried-and-true calibration process to configure the signal delays and equalization settings for each speaker in the truck. This fiberglass enclosure is designed specifically for the Ford F-150 and features a single 13.5-inch 12TW5v2 subwoofer to deliver big bass without taking up valuable space in the vehicle. The last step in the installation process was to mount a JL Audio SB-F-150-SPRCRW/13TW5v2/BK Stealthbox under the rear seat. We used the crossover capabilities of the DSR1 to filter the signals going to each channel of the amp and consequently the speakers so they will only play the range of frequencies we want. However, it was different because we connected the woofers and the tweeters to individual channels on the amp rather than using the included passive crossover networks. This in and of itself doesn’t seem untraditional. We installed a set of BLAM Signature Series S 165.80+ components in the doors and dash. The next step is where our plan diverged from the client’s original vision. This JL Audio Stealthbox is designed specifically for the client’s truck.
