that involved swapping a single- or double-DIN head unit, but I assumed audio systems controlled by screens ended all that. Nope!

The last major component was a JBL DSP4086 eight-channel digital signal processor/amp . This was trickiest to install because it required considerable disassembly of the center console area to access the factory audio head unit . This unit includes a remote bass volume knob and a USB cable . The latter allows audiophile users to connect a laptop running free JBL software and ultra-fine-tune the sound equalization of the system as a whole.
