Outstanding video. Please make more. I am a retired SPED Teacher (very deep well of experience and training.) I believe these videos will help the ADHD, Autism, Intellectual Disability, etc. communities to become mush more self sufficient. Frankly, most of the General Education Teachers and administrative staff can take many notes from your presentation and delivery. You delivered a model in the beginning, with an explanation of the big picture. You delivered prescriptive direction with visual and kinesthetic models. You concluded with a commonly understandable summary of achievement. Bravo. Congratulations! You can teach better than most of the DOE teachers in the country. It was a pleasure to respond to your video. Thank you.

4 minutes, perfect! No bullshit, great vid. Thx.

[thud]

Straight to the point, that's how you make a video!

This video is a lifesaver! I spent hours connecting to the wrong wires without knowing what was wrong. Thank you

A few years ago, I replaced the radio in my wife's 2005 Trailblazer, and it was the biggest pain in the rear! had to practically dismantle everything, couldn't get the right adapter... grr... swore i'd never mess with anything like that again. But, now having seen this amazing video, I'm ready to replace the pain in the rear, lousy OEM radio in my 2006 Silverado! Thanks, great work, great vid! New sub.

Thanks bro. Simple and straight to the point. Really helped me with my install

[TTTyme]

7 years later and this still helped me. Thanks Cason. Hope you're doin alright!

Great video. Concise and to the point.
A few pieces of constructive criticism from a fellow DIYer that's been dabbling in car audio for 10+ years.
T taps and scotch locks are a BIG no no in the car audio world. They have a tendency to make the wire weak and prone to failure.
Crimp caps are acceptable for butting wires together, they just make your wiring harness look like poop IMO.
Butt connectors are my preferred method if I can't solder and heat shrink/tape.
To go the extra mile and really make your harness look super OEM solder and heat shrink all your connections, and then follow up by wrapping it in TESA tape.

Excellent video. The only one that answered all my questions. And not to much talk. You are the man!

[gabrielgonzales]

Can you include all the products (make and model numbers) you bought/ used in this video? The stereo, adapters, and anything else you think we might need. Thank you

[zakvillarreal]

I made the argument that you can YouTube any hobby and said "I bet I could YouTube how to replace the stereo in a 2006 gmc Sierra right now!" So thank you for winning Me this argument.

[TomBryan]

Thank you so much! I was wondering where to pick up power at! Best install video I've seen so far!

[elchulo]

Appreciate it man this literally helped me tons rn trying install this double din

[thetommychan]

Love your videos man, short, sweet, and to the point. Getting mine done today in my 2007 classic and all thanks to you

[workingguy-OU]

Thank you a ton - referenced your video a few times and got my first radio done.

[Ersk]

Great vid! I was hooking my stereo up today and it wouldn't work..extremely helpful man!

I agree that crimps and scotch locks are garbage. Always solder and heat shrink, it's worth the extra effort. On a positive note you've got some serious mechanical talent there! Not sure if that was due to video editing magic, but popping off the panels was not so straightforward for me, and you need to be really careful to pull things off equally are you will break the plastic in a heartbeat. I did this at 50° myself and ended up breaking the plastic, so that's another thing to be careful of. It's better to work in higher temperatures with plastic or you risk the risk of breaking. I thought 50° was warm enough, but 16-year-old plastic is really brittle. I was working on a 2006 Chevy express 3500. Thank God for junk yards!

Damn, dude. Quick and easy. Hope mine goes the same way. Great video.

[jdporter]

Thanks for the video! It actually looks surprisingly easy compared to the speaker install I did on my 06.

very good about everything mostly about the wire ignition power because gm does not have power ignition.. we have to wire up to another source 12 volt power ignition. congratulations you make everything easy while others does not explain well and make them harder.
