Great video. I have been itching to get one of these systems but now I think I'll wait and see what all the bug fixes and upgrades will be. I imagine the price will drop drastically in time as well.
@@thorpower1015did you get your yet ? I ordered from Aucar also and bro my damn order is still pending , they said after 3 weeks they’ll ship it then wait for shipping , sounds like after a month or so 🤦♂️
Watching your video may have answered my questions about the audio part. I installed it and plugged everything in and all worked. Only thing i didnt get to work was the audio. If what you showed worked i will try that and hope that will fix the issue
Same issue as @joeriviere1527. OnStar, GMC dealership,pro audio center could not help. Can you provide step by step instructions for the phone bluetooth and tablet bluetooth connection
@@zachattackcustomsDon’t have a ton of time with it yet but liking it a lot so far. Once you understand that everything is still going through the factory equipment it starts making way more sense.
I don’t disagree, if they could fully integrate the system to not have to work over Bluetooth it would be much better. I also think the CarPlay would work better if it just made the wired CarPlay into wireless Carplay through the factory module.
Problem is nobody has cracked the Canbus of the 19-24 models so no real true aftermarket radio is available. This unit connects directly to the factory stuff. I can tell you I have a system and it hasn't been a big issue
There are many ways to set this up, you can still hard plug your and use it just like the factory set up, it is your option as far as setting it up, I still use the original factory interface, but I can also use the tablet bluetooth connection. There are so many things you can do it is pretty amazing, but it takes time to learn all the endless features. Because in the end this has endless possibilities to make it work just for you. Price definitely sucks, but for me so far it worth it.
Yea, this screen is a give and take. It's hard to beat the functionality of the OEM screen, but you will never get the features you get from this tablet in a factory screen.
OMG, I got mine a week ago and found the installation pretty easy. I have still yet to put my trim back on. Only the two side screws for now. After about 30 emails back and forth, I think I have almost got it set up. Since I have an iPhone, was very confusing. Right now I’m not sure that I am connecting to my phone apps when in Car Play ( AKA Console). Right now, my Bluetooth is connected to myChevrolet. If I hit the Bluetooth button that stays on the screen in Console, it gives me two other choices (GT6-BTD or GT6-BT-8A3F). I’m just trying to set up like you did by keeping my truck radio and my iPhone working together.
Steps I would take: 1. Delete all related Bluetooth connections from phone, factory module, and android module. 2. Make sure factory carplay is turned off on factory module. 3. If you have an Iphone: Settings, General, Carplay, once in there, delete all connections you have for carplay. 4. Connect Phone to factory chevy module. 5. Connect Android module to factory chevy module. (Black Bluetooth button) that shows up on the factory chevy module screen. Set phone to be first and allow secondary connection. 6. Connect Phone to Carplay GT6-BT-FD5D. On Iphone: Settings, Bluetooth, Blue info button beside GT6-BT-FD5D. Make sure carplay is turned on and sync contacts is on. Then make sure under mychevrolet there is no Carplay connected under the blue info tab beside mychevrolet. 7. On factory module music button screen, select GT6 for the bluetooth output. 8. Take a deep breath and some Advil.
Honestly, I didn’t feel like it needed to since all the connections are different plugs so it’s easy to figure out which plug goes where, I felt it was more important to go over the system in general as I had so many issues getting it setup.
Cool you can get this for the lesser trims below an LT. It sucks though without a refresh for 2022 and newer LT and above no dual climate. Nice looking upgrade overall.
Hi, I have a question. Where does the 8-pin connector that comes with the original radio, home and calls control connect or what cable does it have to convert it to the new 15.6? Thanks.
I got this for a 2024 Silverado 2500hd custom (2023 body and interior) the factory console on the tablet doesn’t show properly. I’m assuming the 2024s aren’t compatible. Maybe the company will release an update to make it work
Hi... Do you know how to fix the reverse camera view? My camera is displaying in an opposite view. My left is showing on my right, and my right is showing in my left
@@jesse681000 I would suggest first rebooting the system and if that doesn’t work, then get into the menu and changing the truck setting to a different year or factory reset the unit. I haven’t seen that problem yet.
Yes you can use the factory everything cause this keeps the factory module. It’s like having your factory radio and a separate tablet built into one screen.
I bought one of these during the Black Friday sale. I’ll haven’t installed it yet. I have it sitting in my room but man, the different things in the complication and having the way it’s hooked up just seems like it’s really not the best design yet. Sounds like it needs some work still no one’s really talked about the Chevy trucks with a Bose systems installed because I’ve heard two different versions once it’s completely compatible and then another one to work. It’s not 100% compatible. I’ve also wondered with the Chevy trucks and Chevy where you have XM radio if you have to download the app or if it just automatically comes up at the end of the day, obviously this is not a radio by itself. I guess this is the biggest thing and that’s what makes it a little bit more confusing and having to run everything through Bluetooth, but also doesn’t seem like the smartest thing ‘. But obviously for their system that’s what you have to do. I don’t know really kind of discouraged with my purchase. I think I haven’t installed it to these features, but definitely gave a really good rundown profile on what to expect to deal with
Thanks for such an in-depth review. So many people just say, "it's great!" and end the video. How is the light level at night? Does it auto dim? The last thing I'd want while driving at night is a giant light source ruining my night vision.
Thanks, yea just because I get something to review from a company, I would never lie about its capabilities. That's not right for people to spend there money and not know the products flaws. As far as the auto dim, I have had no issues with it. I have seen other people say it doesn't work. I think those people may not have auto light control. This system doesn't go by the time of day, it goes by auto headlight control.
The only thing that holds me back from buying this is the buttons being for HVAC instead of the seat heater/cooler. I kinda like this system better than the Z-innovations unit because it doesn't make the AC vents change location.
That's a good question, if the factory module came with it, it is suppose to work. If it is an aftermarket camera then I am not sure. I would still reach out to the company for confirmation.
@zachattackcustoms for some reason certain apps like Netflix and youtube aren't available to download. I just assumed you were using a wireless adapter
Been waiting for a year for them to make one for the 2019 and up models. All, like he said there will be growing pains. Nice vid man. Android tho is the only way this is possible and not $5400 for less than half the features 😂😂 17:50. They will make it better.
@zachattackcustoms hey 👋 Zach I'm having "growing pains" ha ha my oem settings are not coming up. I tried 8 inch settings for 19 to 22. Still not working properly no 360 cam . They sent me an update for system. Hopefully it works
@@robertcarrillo8261 lol, You will definitely need the update. I would also try the 20 silverado just to make sure it's not that setting. I can't speak on the 360 camera, since I do not have that in my factory system.
I honestly just started thinking about that it’s about time for that. I have been making notes on certain things and will look to do an update video in the next few weeks. Just didn’t want to rush it, as I wanted to have enough time with it to go over new things.
@@zachattackcustoms not trying to rush you at all.. You were really thorough on the first one so I was just curious on what you’ve found since the install. I’ll keep an eye out for it though! 🤜🤛
@@_DST0NE_ Thanks, I try to go over as much as I can and feel that people need to know. I have learned some new things I like and dislike about this unit. Look forward to piecing it all together.
I have a 2014 GMC with the 14.4. I had to figure everything out on my own but my reverse camera with is now trash as far as clarity. Did you have to change anything for that?
My camera wasn't correct starting out, they had to send me an update file and once I installed that everything worked fine. Also, you have to make sure you select the correct setup for your stereo in the menu.
Awesome video. Do you know how the show Google Maps App in the "3D" view mode? Not the Android Auto or CarPlay...the actual App. I set everything in the Google Map App
Remind me of this question as it gets into the colder months because that only works when temps are cooler, as does the heated steering wheel. It has not been cold enough for me to answer that question at this time.
You will have to email the company like I did for the upgrade to get the file you need to plug into the usb that plugs in behind the unit. Once you upgrade, everything will work, not sure why they would send it out without the upgrade. Like I said in the video, there are definitely growing pains with this unit.
I have a 2020 Chevy Silverado trail boss with the 15.6" but when I play Netflix it doesn’t play sounds but it’ll show the movies and everything else works, any advice?
Seems like they just combined CarLinkit system with custom buttons and larger screen. All those issues you have is what my current carlinkit module does. I've have everything I need to make my own setup minus the bezel. That's only issue I have and system cost me $250 for everything minus bezel. I can't see paying $1400 for a unit with just a portable screen and cheap internals. I'd love that large screen but the price is what stops me. Is it really worth the hassle and huge dent in your pocket?
Looking at the camera option on the tablet what happens if you have a higher trim level with all the camera options like on the mirror and bed? Do the tablet show those as well?
How bad are the fingerprints on it? Does it seem pretty solid? I’ve had some Android tablets that felt cheap, like they would break easily. Thanks for the video! Seriously thinking about ordering this for my 2020 Duramax 🎉.
Plugging into the factory USB will connect to the Factory Module's Carplay, so you could use the Carplay on the Chevy Silverado OEM Screen. I have not tried connecting to the new USBs on the back of the unit for Carplay, but it would be a pain to bring those to the front tray unless you made some cuts in your center console tray. If you would like to know if those USBs behind the unit connect to Carplay, I can test that out and let you know.
I haven't been in a new silverado, but with the previous gm models, for audio we had to plug in the radio thru the truck aux port so there was no audio lag. Did this new current gm generation get rid of the aux port?
Great question, I honestly don’t think about defrost until winter. I will have to check. Either way, you can still use your factory A/C controls from the OEM module inside the climate touchscreen button.
Oof for that price point id expect no audio delay. Is it wireless carplay / android auto? Could you default back to the oem built in android auto / car play?
Yes, you can use the OEM Factory Carplay, but if your factory carplay is wired, it will still require you to plug it in. I have asked them if they can some how add where it will make the factory Carplay Wireless. I think that would be a great option.
I wonder if the idoing company would share how they overcome the canbus like in my Subaru. The radio they make is amazing and sounds so much better and the EQ is way beyond pioneer and other brands
Man, I’m so torn between this. I’ve been eyeing this for quite a number of weeks now after a buddy mentioned it for his Colorado. Found it for my truck (22 Silverado HD), and THOUGHT I wanted it. I’ve been down this road in the past with a radio similar for my old 17 Ram. As I expected, you’ve got the same issues I similarly had with the aftermarket radio for my old Ram. Not sure I’d want to deal with this as even though you’ve explained it all, it’s STILL confusing. I want it but I can’t stand android and it’s android based, the sound being off from the picture would drive me nuts and how you have to connect this for proper functionality is ridiculous. I would hope the company gets this straightened out; so many people would buy this if that happened. You’re better than I am bud lol I admire your patience and perseverance 😂😂 Can’t you still plug your iPhone into the USB and not deal with all the confusion? Or no?
@@justinframpton7806 I have not had to reconnect any of the connections, but it doesn't always connect perfectly like I was saying in the video. I am finding that it is a good idea to reboot the system once a week, cause it doesn't really reboot when you turn off the truck. It's kind of like a computer, it goes in to a rest mode, and like every computer, it's good to reboot it from time to time.
If you email the company, they should send the update. They emailed it to me with instructions. I was able to download it from my email link using the Gmail App on the unit itself, which I highly recommend so you don't have to access the USB's behind the unit.
does this 15.6" screen work on a 22 chevy silverado LTD custom? or was it just made for the trail boss? The console looks similar to the trail boss, but I think trail boss has an extra knob. but been trying to find an after market radio for my truck, but gets me haulted everytime with the infamous "Our research indicates that there are no in-dash car stereo receivers compatible with your 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500". So if this works well with it... I would sure like to get one... any ideas???

The CarPlay overlay and Bluetooth connectivity for all audio is a deal breaker for a $1300 HU in my book.

@@fredp3088 thanks I’m definitely more than sure I’ll get this mod now appreciate info 💯💯
It's literally plug and play hooks right up to the factory wires not hard at all
I got a flatscreen tv in my truck
I have a 2020 Chevy Silverado trail boss with the 15.6" but when I play Netflix it doesn’t play sounds but it’ll show the movies and everything else works, any advice?
Do you have the BT6 hooked to the factory modules Bluetooth?
Would this work for a 23 Silverado 1500 Custom 2.7 Turbo?
This should work, you can make sure on their website.
Seems like they just combined CarLinkit system with custom buttons and larger screen. All those issues you have is what my current carlinkit module does. I've have everything I need to make my own setup minus the bezel. That's only issue I have and system cost me $250 for everything minus bezel. I can't see paying $1400 for a unit with just a portable screen and cheap internals. I'd love that large screen but the price is what stops me. Is it really worth the hassle and huge dent in your pocket?
Would this fir on my 24 ?
Zach great video. How do I extend the video/movie screen when I'm watching a video.
In what regard?
Looking at the camera option on the tablet what happens if you have a higher trim level with all the camera options like on the mirror and bed? Do the tablet show those as well?
I honestly can't answer that cause I don't have any of those camera options. I would check with the company to be safe.
@@zachattackcustoms 10-4 thanks for the awesomw review
How bad are the fingerprints on it? Does it seem pretty solid? I’ve had some Android tablets that felt cheap, like they would break easily.
Thanks for the video! Seriously thinking about ordering this for my 2020 Duramax 🎉.
The fingerprints aren't that bad, but I am pretty sure you could get a "fingerprint proof style" screen protector if necessary.
They sale them online for this unit for 60 bucks
I disconnected my phone from the in console because I have having problems connecting the new head unit, now I cannot repair my phone. Any ideas?
What do you want to connect back to? The console or the tablet portion?
@@zachattackcustoms console.
does plugging in your phone to the USB, connect to apple carplay ?
Plugging into the factory USB will connect to the Factory Module's Carplay, so you could use the Carplay on the Chevy Silverado OEM Screen. I have not tried connecting to the new USBs on the back of the unit for Carplay, but it would be a pain to bring those to the front tray unless you made some cuts in your center console tray. If you would like to know if those USBs behind the unit connect to Carplay, I can test that out and let you know.
Did that void warranty ?
My full warranty expired already so it doesn’t matter at this point, but I have never known aftermarket stereos to void any warranty.
Is there video lag?
There is lip sync issues with the audio matching with the video.
I haven't been in a new silverado, but with the previous gm models, for audio we had to plug in the radio thru the truck aux port so there was no audio lag. Did this new current gm generation get rid of the aux port?
There is no aux port on the new radio.
My question is i have a 2023 sierra gmc base model does it fit i any trim?
It should, you can check there website for full fitment.
Will this one fit in a 2023 chevy 4500 ?
You would have to go to their website and put it your details to see if it would fit.
Hey Zack did the rear window defroster work okay. Just wondering didn’t know what button on the screen was that function.
Great question, I honestly don’t think about defrost until winter. I will have to check. Either way, you can still use your factory A/C controls from the OEM module inside the climate touchscreen button.
Will this work on the 21 Silverado 1500 custom trim?
It should, you can check on the website to be sure.
Oof for that price point id expect no audio delay. Is it wireless carplay / android auto? Could you default back to the oem built in android auto / car play?
Yes, you can use the OEM Factory Carplay, but if your factory carplay is wired, it will still require you to plug it in. I have asked them if they can some how add where it will make the factory Carplay Wireless. I think that would be a great option.
Will this work if you have an iPhone that has to plug into CarPlay
Yes, it adds wireless CarPlay.
How long did it take you guys to receive your screen ?
2 weeks from the date I ordered.
I add a 4 lte for data got signal to tablet but but no signal to run app any ideas? Thx
Not sure, I don’t pay for a data plan in the truck.
Does this unit have audio out RCA’s for an amp?
No, it has an aux audio input and two usbs.
Can you post the link to this screen please 🙏🏼
Link is in the description.
Great video. Im out on this one. Aesthetically this looks amazing, but the factory system is more than capable with less work.
Yea, if they can get the system to work without having to connect via bluetooth, it would be so much better.
I wonder if the idoing company would share how they overcome the canbus like in my Subaru. The radio they make is amazing and sounds so much better and the EQ is way beyond pioneer and other brands
Did you disconnect battery before installation?
No but it couldn’t hurt.
How do you get the graphic equalizer to work, no matter what mode I put it the sound stays the same
Did you try changing the EQ on the trucks factory module screen?
Ok, the factory EQ is set on 0 ,but it is working but I can't get new unit EQ to work, and have you tried yours, and your video is amazing
@bernardbatiste2609 I actually haven’t tried it yet, I will give it a try tomorrow and let you know.
@@bernardbatiste2609 I tried it out and you are correct, it does not seem to be working. I will send an email to the company asking about it.
Does siriusxm still work with this?
Yes, you can play it through the factory module.
Will this fit a 2019 Silverado?
Yes
Is it worth the money?????
Man, I’m so torn between this. I’ve been eyeing this for quite a number of weeks now after a buddy mentioned it for his Colorado. Found it for my truck (22 Silverado HD), and THOUGHT I wanted it. I’ve been down this road in the past with a radio similar for my old 17 Ram. As I expected, you’ve got the same issues I similarly had with the aftermarket radio for my old Ram. Not sure I’d want to deal with this as even though you’ve explained it all, it’s STILL confusing. I want it but I can’t stand android and it’s android based, the sound being off from the picture would drive me nuts and how you have to connect this for proper functionality is ridiculous. I would hope the company gets this straightened out; so many people would buy this if that happened. You’re better than I am bud lol I admire your patience and perseverance 😂😂
Can’t you still plug your iPhone into the USB and not deal with all the confusion? Or no?
You can plug your phone into the usb for the factory module CarPlay, but it will still be the small screens CarPlay, not the whole android screen.
@@zachattackcustoms but once you’ve got this set up like you show, you don’t have to worry about connecting in a string of nonsense again?
@@justinframpton7806 I have not had to reconnect any of the connections, but it doesn't always connect perfectly like I was saying in the video. I am finding that it is a good idea to reboot the system once a week, cause it doesn't really reboot when you turn off the truck. It's kind of like a computer, it goes in to a rest mode, and like every computer, it's good to reboot it from time to time.
@@zachattackcustoms appreciate your responses bud. Thanks
Link for stereo
Did you void your warranty doing that ?
No
Can you send me the update to reboot without losing my current stup?
If you email the company, they should send the update. They emailed it to me with instructions. I was able to download it from my email link using the Gmail App on the unit itself, which I highly recommend so you don't have to access the USB's behind the unit.
does this 15.6" screen work on a 22 chevy silverado LTD custom? or was it just made for the trail boss? The console looks similar to the trail boss, but I think trail boss has an extra knob. but been trying to find an after market radio for my truck, but gets me haulted everytime with the infamous "Our research indicates that there are no in-dash car stereo receivers compatible with your 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500". So if this works well with it... I would sure like to get one... any ideas???
It is not specifically made for the trail boss. On their site it shows it is for a 2019-2024 Silverado.
It would be nice if it was more like a head unit instead of a tablet I think I’ll stick with the alpine halo 11
How long did it take for everyone to get their order? I've ordered mine at the beginning of August and have yet to receive shipping notice or a tracking number yet...
Same here ordered on August 2. Yet to get an order number. I had gotten an email where they asked for a picture of my dash. I sent the pics so just waiting now.
I ordered mine yesterday morning, got an email this morning asking for pics of dash, and was told up to 3 weeks for delivery.
Same here so just waiting looking forward to getting it.@cgardnerjr
That's a complicated system. I need something thats simple to integrate into the truck's system
Excuse me, I installed mine and shared wifi with it, but the GPS has no signal.
Did you hook up the GPS antenna that came with the unit?
Yes, I connected but for a while it would gain signal and then lose signal
Does the factory wifi still work?
Like if you pay for the chevy wifi hotspot data plan in the truck?
@@zachattackcustomsyes
Yeah, I pay for GM’s data plan because it’s a lot faster than my phone’s hotspot.
@htranv gotcha, I know the WiFi shows up on the factory module, but can’t confirm if it works 100% unless I were to buy a plan.
What is the name of the unit and where can I get one
AUCAR
