Couple of questions for the technological savvy, I'll like to upgrade my speakers and add a subwoofer (the last one with on 1/2 channel amp). By any chance anybody on the forum have an idea on the audio wiring? or even better a diagram and probably a basic idea how to do this ? I also saw on www.koreanautoimports.com a kit that moves the stereo and a/c controls to a lower level and you can add a 7 inch screen in the top to make it look almost as good that the original navigation system, the only reason that I ask this is because all the controls for the stereo are in the steering wheel and the bluetooth audio, out of this world !!! So I really wanna keep the stereo and add a nice navi on the car, I'll probably dont even run any oudio from the navi, because i don't need the audio or the bluetooth that usually come in this units. Ideas accepted. thanks family...

By the way this is the kit I'm talking about,link.

Could call it the Hyunda-iCar!

I added a sub and amp. I also upgraded the factory front speakers to components. I would suggest you try crutchfield, they usually have wiring diagrams and adapters.

What size is the original rear subwoofer?

 

[Daddy_O]

I don't have a sub at this moment, my car comes just with 6 speakers, no sub. Awesome photoshop with the iPad, I would like that :grin: . Thanks to the guy who give me info about Crutfield. Thanks family !

By the way someone mention here in the forums about the hidden enclosure for the subwoofer, that sounds good also, so far anybody add the kit for the screen. I f someone got it done, can I see some pics, once again thanks to everybody.

:thumbsup:

cruthfield is actuall the expensive way to go, SonicElectronix is a lot easier on the pocket. for wireing harnesses id look around the metra wireing harness site, chances are that is what you would get from crutchfield anyway.

Yup, go with Sonix.
My stereo I bought for our '07 Accent went **** up after 6 months they replaced it no problem.

You need to get a Line output converter, It's probably the only way to hook an amplifier up if you have a factory radio/cd player in your car. here is crutchfields explanation of this:

You can still call Crutchfield and order all the car tear apart directions, harnesses/speaker brackects as a package even if you didnt buy the audio equipment from them. I have done that before.

That kit looks great! If you or anyone else ends up getting this, could you please share your thoughts (and pictures!) about how it is?

By the way, what navi system were you thinking about getting for the screen?

I also want to add a subwoofer into my sonata, but i'm still trying my best to learn about what amps work with my current subwoofer that i have. I was wondering if anyone could let me know if this setup would work? I mostly get confused with the ohms and what not my sub is 6ohm dvc. Not sure what to do regarding mono/2channel this and that. Thanks for any help anyone could provide!!

RMS Power Rating:
4 ohms: 350 watts x 1 chan.
2 ohms: 500 watts x 1 chan.
Max power output: 600 watts
MOSFET switching power supply
ICEpower class D design

SUB: Audiobahn Alum10 Q
120 oz. Double Stacked Strontium Magnets
Power Handling: 800 watts R.M.S.
Frequency Response: 20Hz – 500Hz

Yeah that will work fine, wire the sub to a 3ohm load and you should see about 425w from that amp according to the specs.

I'm thinking either Pioneer or Alpine, the thing is I just need to have the full screen because I basically gonna waste all the other goodies, I'm planning on keeping the original stereo, the bluetooth phone and audio convince me to do that !! :clap:
