I know there are a lot of complaints about the crappy sound on the stock system with no sub.

When I had my dash pulled during install of all my electrical wiring, I noticed the stock amp had a connector for a passive amp. I decided to test it with a small Skar 6 inch box amp I had on hand. As it turned out, it made the stock sound system sounds very good for a little inexpensive sub.

I could use the Android or Spotify to get some decent sound out of the system.

So rather than spend big dollars on a new amp or custom sound system, I decided to buy a marine rated 10 inch Pyle passive sub made for UTVs. It comes with a bar mount, so I decided to fab up a bracket to mount it behind the firewall and Garmin head unit off the subframe. I used a couple of riv nuts in the holes that are in the square subframe.

It is sized just right to not rub and sits between the steering rack and the glove box.
Because of all that space behind the dash, it really pumps up the bass and makes it worth the effort. The Pyle amp only cost about $160 on Amazon.

Love it. Great addition. I have been listening to music through the Cardos so I wasn’t planning on replacing the OEM system. But this sounds like a great option to improve the stock setup. Your bracket looks on point. Will have to look into this option.

Yes, a solid low cost option. Won't win any audio competitions but pretty decent sound!
