I cheated and went with noise canceling headphones, takes out the tractor noise and sound quality is better.
Plus you can use them for yard/shop work, not just tractor work. Can I ask what brand/model you purchased. I am looking at the isotune brand.

In answer to my own question, it seems like it is not a blue tooth radio, but rather a blue tooth device that connects to a smart phone or similar device, and plays sound that originates from the Bluetooth transmitter in whatever device you use as the source signal?

Maybe it is a radio, and has a blue tooth connectivity function. Guess I better go back and see if the answer is in that video that I did not view... :unsure:

Sardillim where did you get the front pod speakers you used? They look great and I’d like to add some to my cab also.

Thanks to Maine Farmer I got my radio in yesterday. I initially bought a harness from my dealer but noticed it only used 6 pins (on the 9 pin plug). I figured I needed at least 7 so ordered another via eBay. Turns out the Kubota OEM radio plug for Grand L’s doesn’t use the constant 12V pin, maybe the Kubota Jensen radios have a battery or something to keep station presets?

Anyway, things went great and installed the Kicker speakers too, really makes a difference.
