I would not dare to install it myself. I am taking the FJ to my shop as soon as I get everything from Nazar

I hear ya. I just want to do it myself kind of like a hobby sort of thing. Unlike doing my own lift kit or such, my life is not on the line if I mess up - only my hearing! Plus if something dies I know where to look.

I did find some stinger grounding mounts on Ebay. A couple local car shops said just drill a hole down with a 1/4-5/6" bolt and screw down the ground, but I wanted something a little nicer. Something that when fixed in place from below it is fixed and won't come loose when moving things around.

You mount via two points then a 4-guage ground wire is secured via a hex or torx? screw down - clean grounding point.

hey guys. dont use to many devices . nut and bolt youre ground to bare metal as close to the frame rail as you can useing no more than 3 feet of ground. the more things you use the more resistance you create.

What do you guyzzzz think of the KICKER brand of subs, speakers and amps. I'm looking to add to my stock system 4 kicker 6" speakers on the rear door with a custom fiberglass enclosure aiming them up over the rear seat, 2 - 10" subs with custom fiberglass enclosures over the wheel wells, one each side, all powered by a 5 channel kicker amp. I will be leaving the FJ jammer head unit in place along with the stock front speakers. I like the stock look of the 6 disc unit. I also have xm satilite radio and radar weather forcasting via my Garmin 478 GPS, for navigating and Sirius satilite via their sportster gismo.
