Hello everyone, I'be just bought a pioneer DDIN deck with a backup camera. I have the face plate trim and harness for just the stereo, so I know I will be losing my sync. Does anyone know where I can buy the harness to allow me to keep my sync with the aftermarket stereo? If someone lives in the DFW Metroplex, is there someone local that has these in stock?

Second question is what size amp and sub would y'all recommend for my truck? I primarily listen to country music and my truck is a 4 door.

Third question is have anyone mounted a backup camera in their truck? If so, do you have any suggestions on the mounting location and where to run the wiring? If you could let me know on these questions I'd appreciate it. Thank you in advance.

Check out the link bro. Best way I know to maintain sync for aftermarket HU. You might want to think about the F01 wiring harness they have too, makes the install way easier, you dont need to cut into the factory harness.

Ditto on the Maestro.

For running the wiring for the rear camera, there's a rubber plug in rocker panel by the rear door. Run wire from dash to that plug , jump over to the frame, and run inside the frame to the rear. That's how I did it anyways.

Theres also a rubber gromment in the front too, and on both sides...

Thanks a lot for the info. I appreciate it. I actually but the maestro today and have started pulling the HU out.

I put a Kicker TC10 Subwoofer/Box combo under my rear seat powered by a 300w Soundstream class D monoblock amp. I am using the amp's built-in crossover which is I believe 80hz. I have my doors crossed at around 75hz so there is a slight bit over overlap. I listen to pretty much everything, and it sounds great. It's a ported box, and it's not tuned lower than probably 45hz, but it's not boomy or muddy like my old sealed 10" in my 2004, which was in a smaller box and played a good bit lower with the same amp (30-ish hz maybe).

You can also use this but the Maestro is more advanced.

Well, I pretty much have everything. I'm picking a sub today. I just finished running my power wire, backup camera wire, and remote wire for amp. How have y'all installed the amp in the back before? Also when using the Maestro, will I still need the aftermarket radio speaker for Bluetooth or can I still use the Sync speaker? Thanks in advance for the help.

Here's how I mounted mine:

Wow, I really like the LED idea above the usb. Where did you pull power from for those? I would imagine the harness for the radio? Let me if you would please, I'd like to do that. Also did you just use self tapping screws to mount the amps to the back wall? Let me know if you would please, your pics are awesome, very nice.
