Hi all. Thanks. The damage was completely cosmetic. No dents - just paint. about 3 square inches top of the bumper to the bottom of the rear quarter. They did remove the bumper. I was fairly sure the antenna did not run to the bumper or body back there, so I thought maybe they had to pull a fuse...

Someone bumped into me and cause paint damage on the rear passenger quarter panel and bumper. I had the damage repaired and the repair went well, but now my HD antenna is barely working. Never had a problem before the repair. Is there any reason the repair might have caused this? I thought maybe...

I've been looking for a plug-n-play amp/speaker upgrade solution for the 9 speaker Shaker (2015) system. I don't want to change the head unit, because I don't want to lose the integration and functionality built in. However, I did find this recently...

Sorry it has taken me so long to respond. I have been away for about 6 weeks. You may have already gone forward with changes so this info may be old, but just in case, here is my update: I do like the JBLs I used with one minor adjustment. After some research and talking to a few different...

I did not use the crossovers. I was yelled at for it on this forum, but when I asked directly what good putting crossovers on speakers when the factory amp already crosses-over the signal, crickets. Right now, I am doing more research and asking more questions. I will say this - after living...

I appreciate your expertise, but here is the problem: You go to 10 different "professionals" and you get 10 different answers all of which will cost $3000 and most of which require a complete cosmetic change to the vehicle. Installers always want to replace the head unit, all the speakers...

HextallS550 I have advised nothing. I simply detailed what I had done and the results I achieved. Since my installer is THE top professional installer in Chicago and not some random guy on a forum, I will trust his opinion.

scott_0 The wires going to each speaker are already crossed-over at the amp level, so unless you replace the shaker amp, there's no need to use the crossovers that come with the components (or buy new ones).

Update to my speaker upgrade I took the car back and had them turn up the gain on the subwoofer amp a little. Made a tremendous difference!

Speaker Upgrade So, I've been watching this blog for about a year and a half to get ideas about upgrading my Shaker Pro system. I'm a professional musician and thought that I was getting the best sound when chose the Shaker, but was surprised at how mediocre the sound was (someone here...
