Product Overview
Upgrade the cabin and add under-seat bass in a 2024–2025 Jeep Gladiator JT with the Metra SoundStage / VIBE Audio JP-PPKT-5 complete audio kit. It combines vehicle-specific integration parts, two amplifiers, eight cabin speakers and an up-firing 12-inch ported subwoofer for Gladiators with the non-amplified factory audio system.
The speakers fit the front dash and soundbar, while the subwoofer enclosure sits beneath the rear seat. Use the supplied components together as the intended system; Metra states that the package is not designed to be split into separately installed products.
Key Features & Benefits
- Vehicle-specific integration: A plug-in harness connects the non-amplified factory system to the DSP amplifier through the original speaker wiring.
- Six-channel DSP amplifier: The PB80.6-8DSP-V3 provides six amplified channels and accepts a vehicle-specific tuning file loaded through computer software.
- Separate mono amplifier: The PB650.1D-V4 provides published output ratings at 4-, 2- and 1-ohm loads.
- Eight cabin speakers: Four 1-inch tweeters and four 6.5-inch speakers serve the front dash and soundbar locations.
- Under-seat bass: The ported JP-GL1-12 enclosure places its 12-inch subwoofer beneath the rear seat, facing upward.
- Application-matched mounting: Included lower-dash speaker pods, installation parts and under-seat amplifier racks help bring the components together in the listed vehicle application.

Why Choose This Product?
This package brings the cabin speakers, bass enclosure, amplification and vehicle-specific integration parts together as one system. The original speaker wiring is used for the harness connection to the DSP amplifier, while the supplied DSP tuning file is intended for loading with computer software.
The front-dash and soundbar speaker sets give you two cabin listening locations, and the up-firing subwoofer uses space beneath the rear seat. The component ratings are listed separately so you can compare each speaker and amplifier on its own terms.
Installation & Compatibility Notes
This kit is for 2024–2025 Jeep Gladiator JT models with the non-amplified factory audio configuration. Check the vehicle’s audio configuration and fitment before starting; the manufacturer application entry alone does not override these requirements.
Connect the subwoofer’s dual 2-ohm voice coils in series to achieve the required 4-ohm final load for this complete kit. Follow the current installation guide and its wiring diagram, not the alternative 1-ohm configuration associated with a standalone enclosure.
Power seats may require a change to amplifier-rack height. Confirm mounting clearance, including the published DSP dimensions for this kit page, and review the latest installation steps before installation. Metra estimates 6–8 hours for one experienced technician.
