Not exactly sure how that one is put together but it could be more of a project than you might imagine. The sill would be simple enough to take out. The metal strip maybe held in by one of three methods; glue, clips, or plastic welded. If it's welded or glued in, a novel approach might be to use that plasti-dip paint to paint over the entire plastic sill, then clean off the aluminum strip and paint it. Once that's all dry, peel the dip off the rest of the part! Might save you some headaches from having to try to glue it back in place. If it's clipped in, the pull it apart and paint away.

@@phil_hazzy Thanks! Will this fit my Silverado 1500 HighCountry?

@@phil_hazzy actually - i was quick to jump the gun ... it's listed the same under their 1500 section of Silverado. However - I'm in Canada... and they don't ship to Canada. Is there a model number I can search for this on Amazon then?

@@davewoeckener5719 yup! Same party number too.

@@davewoeckener5719 Google that part number (kicker 19417164) and you should be able to find one in Canada. They're available on eBay too.

@@jamesgarcia251 exactly as it was before!

@@natearriaga5733 it's the same part number (isn't it?) so I don't know why it wouldn't be working. I'd start by checking the fuse but the battery. Maybe they forgot to put that in? I believe there's an LED on the amp so see if it's lit up. Gotta at least have power to make it run! That's where I'd start.

@@phil_hazzy to my knowledge, it is the same part number but I am gonna do a deeper dive into it as the dealership is claiming that they went as far as contacting Kicker and claimed that Kicker said that it isn’t compatible with my truck. All of the forums, all of the groups, and everywhere else that I’ve scrounged is saying that it’s universal to this generation of the Silverado, HD or not. As for power, it’s definitely receiving power as the lights you mentioned are definitely functioning. I’ll look into the fuses in the meantime. I’m getting to the point where I am contemplating going to an audio shop to have them troubleshoot it if I can’t figure it. I’m just trying to do as much homework as possible, but I’m hitting dead ends. I can’t be the only one who is dealing with this if what the dealership is saying is true.

@@natearriaga5733 if you have lights, then the next thing I'd check is under the glovebox to make sure they spliced into the correct wires! It really is a simple installation and it does work in the HDs. I've talked to kicker about it too and they're super helpful!

@@phil_hazzy will do, thank you sir!

@@joshb124 it was $6k off MSRP!

@@1371ddcantu no. These are all my personal vehicles. None had the Bose. From what I understand, installation is nearly identical.

Does the amp light turn green when it powers on? My system is not powering on for some reason.

@@1371ddcantu yes, the light on the amp turns green.

Glad you enjoyed! That's why I do these videos!

@@Ghost-xi6js sorry. Sometimes it's easier to see the after than the during. Those clips are easy to remove. Just use a firm pull on both sides of where the clip is and give a sturdy pull. If you've ever removed a door panel it's the same as that.

Silly answer...yes! I don't think it really matters which stud you attach to on the positive terminal though. Have fun installing! I've done this install in a few other GM trucks. Check those out for some other tips and tricks!

⁠@@phil_hazzythanks for the reply Phil! I completed my install today with the help of your video. Unbelievable how much better the Bose system sounds I wasn’t expecting it to be THAT much better. Only difference was when I was fishing the wire I went from inside the cab and out with a coat hanger it appeared to come out of the same location. Hardest part was getting into the wiring harness to locate the splicing wires. Other than that super straight forward. Thank you again!!

Thank you for your concern 😁 Luckily there aren't shards when using this otherwise I probably would have!

@@notme5909 thanks!

@@richierich225 I don't think you can just buy this harness without the kit. You can get a harness from gen5diy www.gen5diy.com/collections/2022-silverado-refresh-plug-and-play-harnesses

@@phil_hazzy ahh okay. Harness makes the fogs stay on 24/7 as long as the head lights are on. I wanted to utilize a oem light switch w/fog button. I'm learning the hard way quick

@@richierich225 you would be correct. The factory harness utilized the button Gen 5 does not. The factory harness will also require an update to your ECM to make the button work and the dash show the fog lights are on. It's a bit of work but worth it if you like a factory look.

@@fernandocastro2458 the knob will work. I went to a lot of forums for other people setting the dip switches. If I didn't say it in this video, I know I have in one of the other two showing this install.

Thank you.

It's fused but if there is a capacitor, it's internal to the electronics. That and it's only 200W.

Hey thanks for the reply. I’ve been seriously considering this for my 2024 Sierra 3500 dually. I’m not 100% sure if I want the knob. Had a knob setup on my old car but I can’t for the life of me figure out where I’d place the dam thing. I thought about the spot you have yours in the video but that feels too much to reach it. I definitely want to avoid any direct drilling in any visible spots. Could always glue but where to run the wire if not exactly where yours is?

@clydecash5659 pretty much anywhere you put it that's out of sight will be a bit of a reach but there's a couple of places that I like. Where I put this one is my favorite but there's a spot by the hood release that works too. Wiring can just stay behind the driver kick panel if you don't want to run under the carpet. I've also seen the knob placed below the HVAC controls. I'm not a fan of that placement because I like the clean look. Either way, it's up to you! Hit me up if you have questions!

Manufacturer Part Number ‎IB-CR171F

She's weird and does it all the time walking into different rooms!

Not sure what the connection between removing your seatback and your screen is but I'd start by disconnecting the battery again then restarting your truck. See if that helps. Otherwise you may have to go into your settings on the screen and see if you can force the update. If not, you may have to visit your dealer.

@@phil_hazzy I did ol but on screen some writing coming bout softwear

I believe it's a Thinkware F200. The GM part number is 19433432.

I have the Bose. On a 2024 rst. On Chevy it’s saying this won’t fit mine.

@@krisgould3080 Well the RST is different than a dually high country crew cab diesel in what way I don't know there should be a model number Kicker which should; go to the website and then talk to a tech...

I didn't say in the video since dealers are dealers but mine had a $6k discount! There are some good deals if people look around!

Thanks! The ZR2 is still a pretty nice truck...ngl!

I’m still trying to decide between those two trims. If you don’t mind, why do you think that?

@@JR-sv8ho same engine/transmission in both so no difference there. The ZR2 does have some cool off road features but if you're not going to use them, then you're paying the extra $$ for nothing. So that's what it really comes down to...if you're an avid off-roader, go ZR2. If you're going to use the truck like most people, save the $$ and go LT or LTZ.

I had the same liners in my last two trucks. Never had an issue with them as far as durability and I used a 3,000psi pressure washer on them regularly. Personally I wouldn't do the plastic ones just for the reason that even when they're clean, they still look a little dirty. You'll never have that issue with these!

If it had come with them, that would have been great! I had a few other higher priority items that I wanted that this truck had so I overlooked a few of the options that were on my "nice to have" list.

Kicker did have a system that also added another amp for the rest of the speakers. That was a great system. Since they don't offer that one anymore I did add an Alpine amp for the other speakers and it sounds awesome now! The 200 Watts is plenty dedicated to the subwoofer. If you were close, I'd invite you over to take a listen!

If you have separates (a individual amp for low mid and highs) then great but if not you'll over power the factory setup and hear sub drowning you out. For the factory setup its a good match and plenty at least in the factory Bose setup..Bigger amp maybe for larger sub/lower response may give you more rumble as your human ear can only hear so low on the frequency scale but then your into the "where am I gonna fit this thing at"..Its a nice setup for a factory install and really sounds surprisingly deep. I used to do all the crazy shit $$$ now my hearing is going along with it all being old tech now..lol

I came across this video because i removed my kicker system out of my 2022 silverado custom to put in my 2024 lt model. I have the system you are talking about with amp for door speakers. Part# 19417165. You've made videos installing it. I'm wondering if anyone can verify if it will work. I reached out to stillwater designs and they can't say. I've looked under the kick panel and located same color wire but dont want to tear apart new truck for no reason. Can anyone else help me out here? Only difference as far as inkniw would be the big screen on infotainment system. Any help would be much appreciated

Glad you enjoyed it!

Hey there! If you've never removed anything like this, it can be scary. You can start with the plastic tools linked below that do a great job of protecting the paint. Basically just move the tool till you find the piece and use leverage to pull the clip out. After you've done a few of these, you can start to pull the trim piece by hand at one end and you'll feel where the clip is. Put some tension on the piece as best you can on both sides of where the clip is and then just give a good tug. The clip will release. When it's time to put it back on, align the clip and just use the palm of your hand to slap them back in! When I did it, I think I only had 3 or 4 clips break. www.harborfreight.com/nylon-pry-bar-installer-kit-4-piece-63594.html?campaignid=12169518939&adsetid=114845746057&product=63594&store=3129&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwjLGyBhCYARIsAPqTz19sic-mzYoP3Z_CE0YBERgAmBi1wUJxCAnramilFso1uYzHb1kIeqIaAjglEALw_wcB

I hear ya! Luckily mine had a discount and was less than $60K so it didn't hurt as bad to spend the $150...

@@phil_hazzy Wow, good deal on a 3/4 ton ! I just bought the 1500 Elevation. Came with them. Would have bought them regardless. Cant imagine a truck without them

Wow! They've gone up in price since I installed them. But they do look good in my opinion...

@@phil_hazzy Everything has gone up in price in the last yr...and yes, they look fantastic, and if it weren't for the look I was going for, I'd pass them by...

I agree, for that price they should clip or bolt on. 3M tape will eat up your paint and can eventually loosen.

I have the patience of a caveman when it comes to some things! This was one of those times...

Quality product! Thanks for manufacturing!

Glad you enjoyed it! If you have a deep grove, best advice is to fill it with color matched paint, the gently wet sand it back smooth after the paint has dried then follow up with the buffing!

You only need to replace broken ones when you remove the trim piece. You won't need to replace them all. If you didn't break any, you're better at removing them than me!

@@phil_hazzy when look on Amazon what part number incase i break them im going try it again when have more time

Yes. The GM part number is 85561534.

@@phil_hazzy Thanks!

Think I found them thanks anyways

@@bradnone1945 hey there, I misunderstood. I have the part number listed in the description with the link to Amazon.

No. No Bose on this one.

@@phil_hazzy Is there an opportunity to locate a subwoofer where the factory Bose one is placed? Without the factory Bose, is the wiring harness still in place with the center console?

@@msfinch2930 I'm sure you could place one there but I doubt the writing harness would be present. The size of the sub would be small though.

Appreciate the kind words Jacob! The way I updated the software was by hooking up to my wifi and downloading the updates. If you can't turn your phone into a hotspot or get signal from a home wifi, go somewhere (Starbucks, for example) and see if you can connect to their network and download the updates. It's running android so it's similar to updating your phone.

@@phil_hazzy Thanks, did just that!! After diving into CZcams, found out the passcode for the factory settings is '123456'. As for the sound issue I ended up joining the orange AMP wire and the blue Anteanna wire and got sound working. In case anyone else was having those issues........now onto figuring out the flashing mileage problem.

@@jacoblashua5298 the flashing mileage has to do with setting the unit to the correct vehicle configuration. I don't have the abarth any more otherwise I'd make you a video! It's pretty easy...if only I could remember how to do it 🤔

Hey there! The part number is Kicker 46CXARCT.

Cool, thanks for that I’ll be ordering today!! Appreciate you.

Hey Los! Thanks for the compliment on the truck. This was a brand new kit direct from GM parts. If those other people can't find the port and switches, they're not looking in the right places 😁

@@phil_hazzy this is exactly what I’m thinking

So the amps without the switches and bass knob port are actually the Covid era amps when there was a chip shortage. Kicker switched back in 2023 to the old style. So anything after 2021 and before 2023 does not have the amp switches or bass knob port 👍🏼 I called kicker to verify this info
