This seemed like it should be easy to figure, and maybe (hopefully) it is to someone on here.

Short version: I want speaker in the vault to play along with the interior speakers.

Things I know (only mentioning to hopefully prevent comments related to these things).
Boombox exists.
How to power speakers.
How to build speaker boxes/enclosures.

It seems like are two options:
1) Tap into existing speaker wires. I would prefer to not do this because it will mean I have to route wires from inside the vehicle to outside. It also means removing trim and literally cutting wire(s) of the very good and right now performing audio. However, if this is the best option I can probably figure all of it out.

2) Bluetooth receiver on outside speakers. If I had basically any phone other than the Google Pixel I could do dual Bluetooth audio (ie. Connect Bluetooth to outside speaker receiver AND Tesla simultaneously) and play Spotify over Bluetooth. But for whatever reason Google still hasn't added that on the pixel. I've found some ways to (potentially) do it from my phone which essentially involves buying what's needed needed for multiple room Bluetooth audio for a house. But it's going to require power inverters (or similar) and adds another step of things that could go wrong/malfunction.


Is their another way I'm missing? I feel like I'm making this overly complicated (as I tend to do).

I haven't been able to find any information saying the Cybertruck has 'extra' RCA outputs for audio so I'm assuming it doesn't?

Could you pair a BT speaker to the CT in the same way BT headphones can be paired to the CT?

I'd love integrated bed speakers. Mostly for drive in nights and tailgating. I can see why it's not a standard feature or option though. Gotta draw the lines somewhere. That said, I'd be interested in an cleanly mounted, and wired aftermarket solution.

Well it wouldn’t be clean but couldn’t you just plug a HomePod or Sonos into the rear and then use Apple Music/Sonos to play to your CT and the HomePod/Sonos?

Could you find a way to run wiring under the truck and have the wires come up through the bed storage. It has a plug to let water out so it would be an easy penetration for your speaker wiring. I do think the easiest is a couple of those JBL or other BT speakers connected to your phone would be the easiest.

I have a pair of KEF LS50 Wireless speakers. Each speaker needs 110v power but that’s it because they link together wirelessly. They produce amazing sound and we take them to the park, school, in the backyard etc. I want to put them in the truck but I haven’t yet only because I want to secure them properly. I know they will work because of how often we play them remotely with only park gazebo power for example.

They work on Bluetooth but they also work on WiFi which is even better because they get the music direct from Spotify or the other services instead of BT just like Teslas. The latest codec with the highest bitrate.

Once I get the right bracket I will be able to pull up to an outdoor event, and from inside the CT, open the tonneau, activate the bed power, turn on my personal hotspot or BT and blast the tunes.
