zaxfire69 Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 Hello everyone. I am wanting to put 2-Sundown 12's in my son's 2014 Ford F-150 4x4 with sync. I am wondering what options I have as far as installing the subs in this truck. I have been searching for stereo install kits for this particular factory radio. If I could find an install kit for the truck I would buy a new head unit for it. Can someone point me in the right direction as far as locating a kit that works with these factory controls. Any help would appreciated. Here is the picture for reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boom50cal Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 most people go with factory integration using a processor. but iDataLink and Scosche both make kits to throw a headunit in there. https://www.amazon.com/iDataLink-KIT-F150-Replacement-Dash-Kit/dp/B010RHVPPE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1483300864&sr=8-1&keywords=k150+dash https://www.amazon.com/Scosche-FD6206B-2013-Up-Integrated-Control/dp/B00K8CJ38A/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1483300803&sr=8-1&keywords=Scosche+FD6206B Not cheap but still cheaper than using a RockFord 3.sixty or a JL Cleansweep, something of that sort.

Ron36 Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 I got a 2010 F150 and went with the factory integration . 2022 Ford Maverick on 22’s Skar SK1500.1 on 4 Skar VD-8’s Mids Sundown Super tweeters, Skar TX 6.5 components on Skar SKM400.4 LC2 for audio control , XS Power D680 XS Series Extra Battery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaxfire69 Posted January 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 Well it looks like I will just use the existing stereo integration. I think I will start by ordering the Audiocontrol LC2i. We are going to put 2-12" Sundown E's on an American Bass Phantom 2500. Just some nice low end slap. Nothing mind blowing. Thank you guys for replying.

neuspeedescort Posted January 2, 2017 Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 if subs is all you want to add i don't think a DSP is really needed. just get an integration kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zaxfire69 Posted January 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 Yes all we are wanting to do is add 2-12's and an amp. The reason I went with the Audiocontrol LC2i is because I thought with stock stereo bass signal is limited as the volume increases. I heard with the Audiocontrol it compensates for that and keeps levels the same as the volume increases. We will have to tie into the rear speakers to get the signal UNLESS this particular head unit has RCA outputs. I'm not sure of that because I haven't torn it apart yet.

zaxfire69 Posted January 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 I bought the Audiocontrol LC2 and we have the box now. I bought 2 Sundown Audio E12 V3's and they didn't fit in the box for the F150 so...I bought some Rockford Fosgate Punch P312 D4's Shallow mount subs. We are waiting to get those in to put in the F150. I bought an American Bass Phantom 2500 to power the Rockford P3's. Looks like I will be doing a separate build for my 01 Jeep Cherokee now since I have 2 Sundown E12's that are brand new. Now I have to figure out an amp for them. Both Vehicles have stock electrical so I will probably need to do the big 3 on them both. I have a lot of work ahead of me for the spring time.
