2017 Sub-Woofer add
I bought the Kicker SubStage system. Under the impression that the factory harness is there already to plug and play. The instructions that I can find from Kicker show me running wires from battery back. Anyone install on a 17 yet?

There`s a video on YouTube showing this system installed on what I think was a 2015 or a 2016 but it doesn`t matter because the 2017`s are no different.

Anyway, I popped the back driver seatbelt panel and inside is the plug for the sub. Cut a hole in carpet behind seat and bolted the new Kicker in place. I am waiting on my Forscan Registration so that I can make the change on the radio code and hope that the sub works. Mechanical install part took all of 10mins. I expect the same from Forscan code change. Fingers crossed. Hoping to also disable the auto start/stop BS at the same time.

2017 is different and the YouTube video (that I found) does not show the sub install.

2017 has the harness in the rear seat belt panel.
A bit of an update. I was able to turn on the sub with Forscan. Unfortunately I also did a code change to disable auto start/stop. It had some issue with MyKey settings and I am currently limited. Hoping to clear with the other key.

Glad to hear that you`re almost to the point that you`re aiming for.
Keep us updated and have a great weekend.

One can do so much better by spending the same or a little more at a car audio shop that knows what they`re truly doing.
