Installing Subs in a 2009 yaris HELP

[Zombie Yaris]

I own a 2009 Toyota Yaris Sedan. I've recently purchased two 12inch Kicker Subs for my car. I need help and info on how to install them it comes with an amp and all the wires needed. I need to know where things go and attaches how to hook up to power and everything. I'm 17 so please try not to use complicated lingo because i most likely won't understand it. Help, links what ever is very well needed. Pictures if possible how to take off the dash and such. I am keeping the old CD player i didn't by an aftermarket one so it's the stock one. The subs will be in a box as well. Help please.

Thanks,
Jordan

I'm about to do the same to a 06 with my son.
Is your head unit the intergrated one?
heres a link from sqcomp http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/sho...hlight=add+amp
search herbicidal thread, he does a install in a sedan too.
I purchased a Hi Lo LOC converter and the radio harnesses so I dont have to cut into the oem wires. Got the AMP kit. So we just need a weekend to get it done.
Others have attached the LOC to the rear speakers in the trunk.

I did a search here and there's more than a 1/2 dozen threads doing the same
with step by step instructions on how they did there installs.

Hope this gets you started.

Normally, I wouldn't be so mean. . . but there is already a huge thread on how do this, and in fact, it's a sticky. C'mon man, if you know how to bump a thread, but you can't search? Or did you not get an answer in that thread?

Okay Here's a few pointers about the Forum. As you notice there's a whole DIY (Do It Yourself) on the question you asked and it is "Sticky"d which means it will more than likely always be at the top of the page cause it's a very common Topic, meaning a bunch of people have asked the same question. The other arrow is pointing to the "Search" Function, all you have to do is type in "Yaris sedan amp install " and it'll pop up a few threads on what you're looking for.


Okay Second is you want to go through the DIY and then let us know if you have a question, Be specific. We like to know the Brand Speaker you're using, Model Speaker. For example Tell us 12 inch Kicker CVR or Kicker Solobaric, Please also note the power Handling and RMS of the sub. If you don't know Google and do a bit of research.

From there tell us about your amp : For Example a Kicker 500.1 and list your power ratings on the amp if not give us a model number. We can Help you out a bit and tell you if you're going to severely under power the sub and possibly damage it.

Knowing what type of amp will also help on the Gauge Power Wire you're using. You may as well use a good Gauge wire so if you decide in the future to switch amps, you won't need to change out the power wire.

So on your next post Please fill in the blanks :

Amp - Brand - Model Power Rating

Subwoofers - Brand - Model - Power Handling

Wiring - Gauge Wire - Brand

Box - Sealed - Ported - Bandpass

Then we can better assist you .


P.S I know you said don't use complicated lingo but we're trying to teach you. Unless you don't want to learn then that's a whole different story.

Give a man a link, and you help him for a day.
Teach a man to search, and you help him for a lifetime?

Watch this video First. You'll need to do this upgrade if not you're gonna be dimming the hell out of your headlights and possibly mess up some of your other electrical components in your car.

You can build that wire kit for about 20 bucks to do this upgrade. You will eventually need a battery. I would do this before you install that system.

I read this as "I don't want to read any DIYs or to actually do any work and look for it even though all I have to do is click a posted link."

[Zombie Yaris]

Yes I really don't wanna do the work but probably will have to. I can feel this is going to be a big pain already and is already costing me more than i allotted for. Is their any places i could bring my car to to get the big 3 taken care of for me?
Or where do i pick up the parts if i must do it my self?

Edit: how much will a battery run me as well? and where can i buy all these from? Or can iI go to like best buy a pay to have someone do it for me. I'm only 17 with little experience with cars i don't wanna mess up my car. If you know what I mean.

[djct_watt]

Yes. If searching for information is too daunting a task, I don't think you can handle the install. Even though I despise audio shops, you can try some local I stall shops (gasp, you will have to SEARCH on google), or you can go to a generic place like Best Buy.

[Zombie Yaris]

Dude like seriously? I'm asking for help and your being a total ass about it. Sorry I'm 17 with a life and I'm busy with sports and other elective activities. It's hard enough to find time for anything let alone installing a system in my car this is seaming to becoming farther from reach. I've done about 3 hours of research already and now their is so much more i have to buy and do. Non of my other friends went through all this trouble so why me? That's why i might have to pay someone to do it for me. Because I don't have a lot of time to deal with. If your willing to help me then please do but theirs no reason to be rude about the fact i want to do something with the limited time i have.

[djct_watt]

^uuuh I gave you a suggestion for an install place. There's nothing wrong with having a shop do the work for you, nor did I suggest it was a bad idea. I suggest you add English to your electives.

PS, if you think you're hard pressed for time now, you will be in for a nice surprise in about 10 years.

[djct_watt]

Personally, I think you're just trolling... You know what a thread bump is, but you can't search or find the sticky at the top of the forum.

This cannot be a real thread. But for some reason if it is, I did give you a suggestion. It is honestly helpful; as you don't want to attempt an install and be stuck with torn apart dash and no help.

[Zombie Yaris]

What's the suggested price? I want to do most the work i can my self. I'll learn more and feel better about doing it just i need all the stuff first. if you wouldn't mind seeing if theirs a kit or something for the big three on line? or where to get it? plus what battery i will need. I don't want to over pay for a battery size i don't need. If you can find them and put a link up that would be awesome. I'm going to bed I've got school in the morning so thanks for anything you can do to help.
Edit: i did find it before had i downloaded it i just need the parts to arrive and stuff like that to come before i do that. I have little forum knowledge, but yes i do know that a bump will make the thread more active and their for put it at the top of the list. I did search some other than the amp wiring i didn't know how else to find things i need for the year of my car and such. I felt making a thread would be a lot fast and it is and more helpful. Less random posts to read and such it's all about what i need to know.

Post in there and see if there's somebody who lives near you or can suggest an audio shop who will do the install for you.

The install will take time and you want it done correctly. I'd hate to see the job done half assed and your car catch fire. But that's your decision.

Like that amp is going to need a Mono Signal ran to it. I know you just said " wtf " did he just say. So to go into further detail about your install will be very difficult with lack of basic knowledge. It'll take hours of research and time, which you don't have alot of with your school schedule and extra curricular activities.

An Audio shop will probably charge you about 125 bucks to do the install. It'll probably take about 2-4 hours.

It's all up to you to do the Big 3. Maybe your buddies didn't do much research so they don't know, we're just trying to share knowledge and past experiences. You can hook it up regular but at nite i can guarantee your lights will be fading when the bass hits.

I went to autozone and got there Gold series battery for my yaris and paid 100 bucks, has a 7 year replacement warranty. My ideal choice would be a Kinetic Battery but them will run around 200 dollars.
