So if you need to use your spare tire do you need to remove the sub then reinstall it? I really want sub for my rav 4 but not sure I’m tech savvy enough to do this install. May need to look into a box woofer set in the back but like you said the cargo space is key

Thank you very much for these videos, they are the best I have seen for the rav4, keep up the good work.

Installed this same sub in my 2019 RAV4 LE. Discovered that when using the high-level inputs, the blue remote turn-on wire is not needed. The Rockghost subwoofer senses the signal on the speaker-level inputs and turns on and off without the blue wire being connected to anything. The manual does not mention this, but it's good to know and may save someone from running additional wire.

That is a good comment and point you brought up. At 200 watts with 14.4 volts, we are around 14 amps if we are maxing the subwoofer/amp. It is unlikely we're pulling that much continuously. I'm not an audio or electrical expert but I have not had any issues. I also pull an addition 4 amps for a fridge during my drive.

great video.. I have a question though I have the TRD version which comes with JBL with 11 speakers and it has a small sub-woofer in the back. The bass comes out nicely for around 4 seconds then slowly fades away. So I did read on rav4world that all of the RAV4s are affected by that issue which is basically the JBL system has a protection feature built-in the head unit which lowers the amps or something. So my question is if I replace the sub-woofer with a better quality would it make any difference? how do I override amps coming from the HU? what's the best way to accomplish that? thanks again.. subscribed
@Rav4Gen5
@Rav4Gen5 3 года назад
Hey. I honestly don't know but I it sounds like bass roll off which auto-manufacturer do to prevent damaging their cheap speakers. No subwoofer might not help as the sound frequency going to it is being limited. You can get an AudioControl LC2i or LC5i to overcome losing the lower frequency. But again honestly, I don't know and I would take to to an audio expert. They should have tons of Toyota experience since this is how it's done across most Toyota's that have JBL.

Hi, it's me again from your dash speaker video :) I had two questions 1) Since mine's a 2019 Hybrid, the battery is in the boot. So for the power connection for the Sub, I just use a t Tap or attach the wire to the positive terminal of the battery? 2) I'm not upgrading my door speakers or planning for an amp yet, so at 12:49 you mention using a T Tap on the wires in the B pillar? Thanks
@Rav4Gen5
@Rav4Gen5 3 года назад
You can connect the subwoofer directly to the battery. These subwoofers typically have an inline fuse to protect the wire. You don't use T-tap here. You might want to search for terminal connectors to add additional wires to the battery terminal. amzn.to/3f79Pca What might also be different for you is you might need to find a way to get a 12v signal when the car is on/accessory mode. This is used to tell the subwoofer is on. Use T-Tap to only get audio signal from the B-Pillar. Not for power. The video to get audio from the B-Pillar will be uploaded tonight.

Yes and No. My 12v accessory port is also only powered when the car is on. Therefore, I cannot drain my battery. The subwoofer has a remote turn on wire that remotely turns on subwoofer if power is send through the remote wire. You need to find a place for that remote turn on wire.

T-Taps are fine and are what I would use to get signal from the B-Pillar. I went to the head unit because I already had signal exposed when I installed an amp Firewall : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-f-3oCuXDQOk.html

@@Rav4Gen5 ok, thank your for that video. So, my question comes from the video . But I'm confused in 9:10 mark. When you summarize I noticed the blue remote wire is connected to a lever nut connector. My question, which idk how to ask.. once I t tap into the cigarette socket, and I have the red power cable, where does the blue wire come into play. Do I make sense?
@Rav4Gen5
@Rav4Gen5 3 года назад
Blue is for signal to tell the sub to turn on. You want power sent to that when the car is on or accessory mode. In this case, I connect to the same port as the 12v since that only has power when car is on/accessory mode. You need to make sure the sub turns off when car is off otherwise you'll drain the battery.

@@Rav4Gen5 ok. Are you able to provide a link to purchase the 3 connector lever nut? That way I can copy exactly what you're doing. Have you learned or or figured out another method to avoid removing the trim to access the cigarette port?

I added lever nut connectors to the video description. Thank you for that. I don't think you can connect to power without removing the panel. You can consider something like this. amzn.to/3soiZXe

Just curious, does the subwoofer consume a lot of power? I read somewhere that either the amp or subwoofer upgrade will need to the alternator upgrade to a higher amperage alternator.
@Rav4Gen5
@Rav4Gen5 3 года назад
I have both this subwoofer with built in amp in this video and an amp in another video for the doors and I am using stock alternator. And I have a 12v fridge. I have not come across any issues. I am also not blasting my audio either and the system isn't that powerful relative to some builds that go all out. You should be very fine with the stock amp.

you seriously took apart 1/4 of your car to power your sub with a 18aug wire or less? Folks, unless this sub only requires 125w or less, PLEASE don't do this. There are other guides that do this properly.

I think you mean regular trim panels in the cargo area. In any case, you need to find a way to get audio signal and power to the subwoofer. You have to remove panels if you want to conceal wires. Panel removal is easier than it seems.
