Ford Genuine VGL3Z-18808-A Subwoofer

Perfect fit in the truck, I have a 2017 F150 XLT with a Sync 3. The sub itself fills out the sound in the cab, but it’s not overwhelming. There is no way to control the sub’s sound level once it is installed. I think Kicker and Ford designed preset waveforms to match whatever output the Sync system is using. I went to the dealer to get the codes turned on, and it cost me about $150 with tax. I did not want to use Forscan to set codes as I was concerned about making a mistake and any warranty issues. Also, there were instructions on the box for installation directing you to a website, but unless you have a dealer account you won’t be able to access them. There is a YouTube video to that shows how to connect the wiring harness, and you can go to Kicker (VSS) to see where the locations are to cut the carpet. It is not the exact same model subwoofer, but the carpet cuts are very similar. Overall, it was a fairly simple install, that shouldn’t take too long. Afterthought, I went to two different dealers to ask them about turning on the subwoofer, and both of them (Service Advisors) had deer in the head lights kind of look. Hence, I copied the instructions off the box so they could access the online instructions.

Easy install, enabled the sub-woofer myself with Forscan. Pleased with the speaker it definitely fills the truck with low end base....Update - while driving, listening to radio all of a sudden I hear a “pop” and the woofer quit working. Contacted this seller and I’ll update again when I hear what they’re planning on doing about this..it was doing great till then. Right about a month after installing......Update - The sub-woofer started working again, after speaking with customer service, it has a two year warranty and they said I can leave it alone since it is working and if it ever happens again they'll be happy to replace it with in the warranty time frame. I decided to let it go for now since it is working just fine and I didnt feel like removing it and re-installing the new one. Customer service was willing to work with me either way I decided and I think that was Great!! Yes great customer service.

It arrived wrapped in a black trash bag. Had a appointment to get it installed with a full sound system a month out. Found out when I brought it to the installer that it wouldn't work with my truck. Contacted the seller and they would not work with me to return it.

Perfect addition to stock sound system. Definitely the best boom for buck you can achieve without losing any cabin space. If you are ok with cutting up a bit of carpet to reach the mounting points and comfortable with using Forscan to make the necessary changes to enable to subwoofer you will not regret this purchase.This is not a high end power system, so you won’t be creating shockwaves and rattling windows - but a solid fill out of the sound range can be expected at volume levels the stock system can handle.

Just be aware that this looks like just the speaker. It appears to be missing the power cable, taps, and the long cable harness that connects the speaker to the wiring in the front of the truck.

Nice factory product at a much cheaper price. Install was simple and clean in my truck. Highly recommended if you want a factory sub.

Installed in 20 minutes then activated it myself using an OBD link and Forscan software.This sub really filled out the sound of my stock system (non Sony) 2017 F150 Crew cab. It actually hits pretty hard with certain music and vibrates the rear view mirror at times.As a dad who wants a stock look but enjoys upgraded sound, I am thrilled with how this performs. Highly recommended!!

perfect price/fit with fast shipping .customer service was fast on my questions .this sounds great girlfriend was skeptical about needing it but now she loves it ...i would highly recommend it and buy it from these guys again...lee
