Re: Kenwood DNX9990HD / Bazooka

Just out of curiousity Heli ATP, did you get the 50 watt or 100 watt amp model Bazooka?

I installed the Bazooka BTA6100 BT Series 6-Inch 100-Watt Amplified Tube Subwoofer. Had a friends kid sit in the back seat recently, and he said something was bumping his back while watching a movie. I turned the sub down and he said that was better. It was only at 3/10 volume wise. I hear the 8 inch is crisper for Jazz.

I'm having a Kenwood DNN990HD installed, maybe this weekend...

You used an '09 tailgate handle for the camera, did they move the camera to the handle sometime after '06? The '06 has the camera mounted by itself like a big wart on the tailgate. If that is the case, would you know if the '09 tailgate handle fits the '06?

What is the brand of surround you used, it seems to match your lower sections with the flasher button perfectly?'

I realize after looking at your install, I will need to order the flasher/cubby insert, my stock NAV/radio and volume is there now. Hopefully it will fit without issue.

Thanks!

I just realized this thread had an open question about the tailgate handle with camera.

The tailgate handle with camera can be installed in any year G1 Ridgeline.

I added a Bazooka 6" Amplified Bass tube behind the seat to replace the stock sub-woofer. All I can say is 'WOW', more than enough BASS for me. I love the clean install without losing any storage space. Install is straight forward if you buy the recommended cables. The rear seat hangs from two top brackets and is secured by bolts across the bottom. One person can easily lift the seat from the top brackets and lay it down on the floor (with seats up), and work behind it without removing it from the cab. I found it useful to follow these instructions...
1. Pull the plastic panels under the seat bottom straight forward to remove them.
2. Remove the six bolts (14mm) holding the seat and center seatbelt in place.
3. Pop the two small plastic covers at the top and behind the seat using a trim removal tool or screwdriver tip covered in masking tape.
4. Lift the seat straight upward.
5. Remove.
The Service Manual states a 35 ft lb torque and must be re-installed in a certain sequence for the 6 seat anchor bolts (not the seat belt bolts). When putting the rear seat back in install the bolts in this order. (1) center left (2) center right (3) left lower (4) right lower (5) left upper (6) right upper.

Now this is what I'm talking about! I have looked through hundreds of pages to find this simple direction on removing the upper back seat. I'm going to assume this also means you can install a sub without tackling out the bottom seats! Thank you Heli I might actually do it myself now.

Thanks again Heli! Sorry to gush but I've been looking for this in my spare time for days and the addition of the torque specs is rich!
