if you have added the dic buttons then the chime volume control should be in the menu with a choice of high/med/low/off, unless it is somehow completely programmed out?

Just added the button, and it is in the menu on my 2013, maybe the earlier years don't have that option.

What wiring harness are you guys using?

I also have a pioneer head unit. Originally had a PAC interface and it constantly cut out and buttons would work intermittently. I now have a maestro interface and it’s worked flawless. Also has a neat gauge feature. I replaced my door speakers when I got it due to them all being broke one way or another. Left the stock wiring.

Being you left the stock wiring and sounding like you did a basic (not high end) speaker replacement, you seem as if you are right along the lines for the same goal I am after. Better radio features and better sound than stock, am I right? I personally don't feel the desire to add an amp, I think I'll be content doing the same upgrade you did with a head unit/speakers only. My 2007 LS had the Bose option with the 6.5 woofer in the center console, I really was happy with how it sounded (better than standard, and mostly for low volume level listening).

If I am right in that assumption, would you do anything different with your setup?

I’ve never been a “stereo” guy. I just wanted something with Bluetooth and CarPlay. I put pioneer speakers in that I think were $40-50 a pair and sound better than crackling or broken stockers.

I wouldn’t change a thing. Does everything I need for a budget price.

I keep forgetting to snap a picture (it’s my wife’s car).

I'm using this head unit that I bought at best buy, it's not bad. My antenna reception is bad.

Hope it works out! I contemplated buying one of the cheap Chinese radios with similar features to the top DD head units (for 200-300 bucks). That one is less than 100 bucks on Amazon, but it totes some really bad customer service and product reviews. With my luck I'll have all the issues, but hope it works for what you want.
