Default 2008 Limited stereo question....

Did the 2008 Limited's all come with the Audiophile stereo? I just bought the truck and I am pretty sure it has it. It shows the name of the radio station that is on, but I didn't see a sub woofer under the back seat. I did see a wiring harness that looks like it may have gone to a sub woofer, but it isn't hooked up to anything.

The head unit has those listening positions, but I am pretty sure the sub has been removed. I have to take a better look when I get out of work.

I would imagine that the sub woofer is in plain sight when the rear seat is lifted, correct?

Thanks for the picture. It definately has been removed.

That's just more of a reason for an upgrade!

Look under the driver and passenger seats for the subs see if they are still there.

I thought it only had one, located under the rear drivers side seat.

It's just the one (single 8" with a small ~90W RMS amp screwed to the bottom of the box)

Gator, do you know if the RF/Saleen sub would fit my truck? Is it still available to purchase?

I don't believe it will work with the Audiophile head, the Saleen uses a T harness that pulls the signal from behind the standard head unit, the audiophile head does not have sub frequencies in the door output (it has a separate sub output at RCA/Low level)

IIRC, it's not available from Saleen anymore, but I've seen them on forum classifieds and on ebay.
