    I had a 2021 Highlander with the JBL. The brochure said it "Sounds Like 1200 watts". They quit advertising it as such for very obvious reasons. A service tech looked up the specs on the system, and it was something like 32 watts. Oh yeah, the system in the Highlander was real trash. My 24 Tundra has the standard system that comes with the Limited trim, and it sounds much better. Sure, different system, different vehicle, but the fact that JBL anything is a waste of cash is a truth that will last forever.

    Nah, the jbl system is pretty good in the third gen. It’s not GREAT, but it is pretty good.

    I cannot say the same. Sure it sounds ok, but my previous truck had a Bose system and it sounded better in every aspect. Its not about the brand either, its just what I noticed.

    I went with Kenwood eXcelon DFC-X3C coaxial speakers

    I had to make some adapters for the brackets in order for them to fit properly. Here is the post that covers the install: https://www.tundras.com/threads/wha...gen-tundra-today.104778/page-254#post-3750781

    I want to replace the dash center speaker as well (which has the same OEM speaker as the corners) but I don't want to have to buy 2 more speakers when I only need 1. They are only sold in pairs.

    No, but if you DM me with your e-mail address I can send you the 3D file. It seems the trucks (or the speakers) have changed over the years because I read someone had installed these on a 3rd gen and they fit perfect as is.
