Just shop carefully and you’ll find good values. Most of them are basic tools and are relatively inexpensive. You don’t have to spend a lot of money, but if you’re a careful shopper you can usually get most of what you need without going broke. The right tools make all the difference! It’s worth it to wait a bit and get all the right tools together instead of struggling with the wrong ones. If you’re adding a subwoofer to a factory system you should definitely prepare for extra work.Ī good estimate is perhaps 3-5 hours or more for adding a subwoofer to an aftermarket stereo and 4.5+ hours for a factory system. Installing a subwoofer in your car is often hard work depending on the vehicle and what you’ll need to go through for installing and hiding the wire. If you can, however, borrowing a friend’s is a huge help. Better to plan well or stop and pick back up the next day. If you get stressed because of time you’re more likely to make mistakes and have to redo something later. Try to allow enough time for daylight and to avoid rushing your work, especially if it’s your first time doing your own car audio installation. Try to get the basics you need first before starting.Īs a side note, you can use a car subwoofer with a home stereo if you’re so inclined, too. There’s less time and frustration if you get the right parts and tools the first time so you don’t have to after you’ve already started. They’re often a lower voltage or are a data signal bus and can’t be used for this purpose. This is because today’s vehicles have more wiring which is related to computerized signals and don’t use 12V. However, in today’s vehicles, it can be harder to find a +12V wire for the remote on connection that turns on and off with the factory stereo or the ignition switch (normally the accessory position). In most vehicles, a +12V connection at the battery is relatively easy to find and route power wire to the amplifier mounting location you’ve chosen.
