Hey everyone! So, I had a hard time finding information on whether or not you would be able to keep your factory navigation system when changing out your factory radio. Turns out it is easier than it looks!
In this video, I will demonstrate:
How to choose the right dash kit
How to setup the dash kit with a Kenwood ddx419 double din touchscreen and factory navigation
How to assemble the wiring harness with the iSimple Stereo Converter
How to ground the wiring harness underneath the glove box
Tips & Tricks
How to use the USB as your iPod
How to change the Bluetooth from front speakers to all speakers
Any questions or recommendations, feel free to leave a comment!
Install at your own risk! If you are unfamiliar with wiring, ask a professional for help. I am not responsible for any injuries that may occur.

Hiii just bought a g35 and I’m so happy you posted this. My 6 disc changer just jammed and I wanted to upgrade. LOL Metra I remember those trains!
You can get the dual climate control unit from enjuku racing.com. But it costs about $200.
Dude, I'm just glad to see the G being a 6MT though. Good video
+KillerZero259 thanks man! Manual is the only way to go
R35 is automatic
@@chronicallylost578 The R35 is irrelevant to what we're talking about, FYI
How do you get navigation to continue work with aftermarket double din
tunleycn the navi will work the same. However, you will lose the voice audio from the navi
Mark Reidel but how did u gt it to work ive spoken to 4 shops who all said its not possible . and i see yours working can u please contact me bk mayb even exchange numbers i realy need help with this sittuation its so stressful i jus want it hooked up with everything working properly
@@foreverg3549 once you swap out the head unit, you only loose nav voice because of the connection to the factory head unit. The rest of the nav system is uneffected
Ah Umm i got it installed already everything works still jus no dual climate control other then that works great i did a video on it on my channel check it out i also paint cars and do body work to buy car parts for my G
Can i fix 2005 G35 COUPE dvd in 2003 G35 COUPE..??
JDM Kits can be found for $300 on eBay
Based on your JDM kit it looks like your car is an 03 or 04 . If that is the case you only need a standard Nissan Wiring harness. You do not need the extra iSimple harness. Save the money and just use the standard harness. I used to be a Best Buy Installer, I've done hundreds of these cars and I also own one. I know what I'm talking about.
Awesome. Thanks for the feedback. Plus, there is limited space behind the dash to easily position the iSimple. Good to know it is not required for the install.
Mark Reidel Actually, he's wrong. If you have the Bose system you need the extra harness. I've done both my G's, one an 03 and one 04. Both needed the additional harness.
I've done many of these cars and never once have I ever had to use the premium harness. I actually own one myself with a bose system I used the standard harness. So to say flat out that I am wrong is messed up. I used to do this for a living did you ever stop to that maybe I know something you don't.
Dannosuke25 Yes, but to say that YOU know something that literally everyone else doesn't would be a bit ridiculous. The normal speakers work without the harness but the subwoofer does not work as a sub anymore. It will only work as a normal speaker, so yes you need the harness if you want to keep the functionality. Just like you need another harness to keep the functionality of the steering wheel controls.
Well yeah the steering wheel controls do need an extra piece, but that is always the case and goes without saying. But as far as the subs they work just fine with the regular harness. My car is proof of that.
Bought a used kit that was as good as new
Did you upgrade the GPS Nav , it looks different than OEM ?
I need some help I’m tryna see if I can buy that screen on the top the one that retractable into the car with the gps I’m tryna see if I can purchase that separately and install that into the car but I can’t seem to find it online can someone point me in the right direction?
Hi there,
You would also have to purchase the dvd rom box that is embedded above the glove box for the GPS to work. (Along with the gps dvd disc. On top of that, the discs are outdated. You are better off buying a separate gps device or using your phone gps. Let me know if have any other questions.
@@DjDelsMusic I’m getting a g35 soon and it’s set up the same way but it doesn’t come with that gps screen on top it’s just a regular holder on top so you think I could find a gps screen online and install it you think it would be easy?
@@isthtmikey you can buy a used gps assembly for about $400-$500 and prob $50-$100 for the dvd rom box. I personally haven’t done a mod like that so I do not know the wiring specs and how you will mount the dvd box (if you plan on using the gps system). If your heart is set on having a pop up screen, just keeping looking for a g35 with Navi already installed
Did you originally have the Navi kit before this install or did you add it?!
I bought the car with Navi included. It was a premium upgrade.
I have found that if you use a #3 Phillips tip, set up a towel on the bench, First, tighten the screws hard (I know that it's counterintuitive) then loosen them. Otherwise they will strip,snap then you have to drill them flush. Note: using a hammer on the screwdriver while removing helps as well.
Did you have to wire a relay so the DVDs can be watched in motion,for the back seat passenger 🤔🤓👍🏼
+SONOFOVERBROOK #1 yeah, those screws are a PITA since they're so fragile. Appreciate the tip! For watching DVD's, you just need to wire the parking brake wire coming from the radio to a good ground on the car. No relay is required. However, this trick typically works on older head units. My Kenwood is like a 2011 or 2012 model. I know the 2015 pioneer and kenwood models have a safety built in so, you'll have to wire it to a relay and "trick" the unit to think it is in park.
Oh yeah, I know all about getting around that for the last 20yrs. It's harder in the all in one, with GPS is more difficult but, not impossible. I know a trick.
+SONOFOVERBROOK #1 word. I'm still trying to figure out if its possible to get the stock navi voice system back when using the gps with the Aftermarket head unit. Definitely came in handy while driving around in the city
Mark Reidel First, check the settings menu and see if u can reset the oem navigation system at the & lookpp the voice menu options first. Try to reset it.
I know this was from 4 years ago but I found this while trying to do a similar project, can you put the navigation screen down with the double din installed? (06 with oem nav)
Kieran Iams-McGuire yes you should be able to. It goes down in the 04 model. Since I don’t have a 06 model I can’t guarantee it but I don’t see any issues with that. Lmk how the install goes!
Just bought a 03 g35 coupe that already came with this dash kit ? Am I lucky or ?
How does the finish (color, feel) on your JDM kit compare to the stock? The reason why I ask is because I just got a brand new JDM kit for my 2004 g35 and I was surprised to see that it had a very rough finish. It almost feels like it has a coat of primer and it appears to have no clear coat or what ever the OEM puts on it to make it smooth. The controls do seem to be exactly like the stock so no issues there. Also what color is you dash kit? I order the willow and its darker than my stock.
+Saint Rogue It feels smooth to me but not at great as a finish compared to the stock one? haha i know what you mean tho. The oem definitely has more clear coats & overall better quality as far as finish. I bought mine from ebay and it stated it was "Black". Its hard to tell in the video but it looks like a charcoal. the buttons are way blacker than the dash kit. i just looked online and cant even find the same jdm dash that i bought. So, yours might be a different manufacture.
Look great.
bro im at shop rn all the kits they have to offer say without navi.... where did u gt ur kit from because i cant find it on ebay where it goes with navigation
Where do I buy this I tried to find it but I can’t
Can i buy a dual dash kit and remove my navigation system because i dont like the navigation system and want the regular storage compartment like the other g35’s
+FEOXANGEL I don’t see why it’s not possible. However, it might be hard to find a seller only selling the storage compartment, otherwise you’ll have a big hole there lol but I agree with you. The factory gps is worthless with an outdated map.
Hey, you added the isimple thing can you please explain why we would need this?
+TheZane03 From my understanding, the isimple is needed for compatibility with the factory Infiniti amp. You're also able to adjust the gain levels individually for each of the speakers on the isimple. I'm not sure if you actually need it (If anyone can comment on this). I guess try to connect it without the isimple first and if its giving you issues then go ahead and get the simple. It costs about $50 new.
Any links for the dash kit?
Any luck with finding a dash kit?
ok so im watching your video again and you say for 03 n 04 the climate buttons won't work? that means i won't have heat or ac? please dont tell me that i got an 03 can u please explain
TURO TRAGEDIA oh, sorry if I wasn't clear in the video. The dual climate function won't work (I.e. Having separate temperatures for the driver and passenger.) Everything else works so don't worry lol. Let me know if any other questions arise - I'm here to help brotha
I'm wondering if I can get a metra kit and change the buttons
TURO TRAGEDIA ideally lol would most likely save some $$ if you can find the controller used. Might have to just bite the bullet on this one and get the complete kit. Trust me, I waited a year before I finally said fuck it. It's worth every penny having a working radio lol
what year is your g35?
+The Real TezqaDZN 2004 coupe
Can you tell me where to find that kit I can't find it anywhere on eBay...i have factory navigation would like that kit
try nissanraceshop.com its around $350
'03 G35 Coupe with Bose (I think). I got a Scosche NN032 Stereo Connector from walmart, should this work? I've wired it up but the head unit still won't turn on. The head unit isn't new, it was one of my old friends, so could it be something with the head unit? Is there a way to check if my head unit is bad?
+xPad1x yo, I checked out the NN032 stereo connector from walmart and the if i'm reading the right one, it doesn't list that it is compatible with G35. As with the head unit, you can hook it up to like a car battery jumper pack or bring it to like best buy (or an audio shop) and see if they can plug it in. Given it works, maybe purchase a new wiring harness that is compatible with G35. keep me posted.
+Mark Reidel Turns out I just needed to attach a ground wire from all of the ground wires in the harness to a piece of metal in the dash! As soon as I touched the ground wire to a ground point, the head unit came alive! Turns out this NN032 from walmart actually does work, you just need to actually ground it (something I've never had to do before with other car radios)! Also I have the Bose system, so it's cool to know it works with that as well!
I would love to get a link to all the things that I'm going to need for this install ! Please! I need a new stereo in my car ! Can someone please help?
Check Nissan racing shop. It’s in stock for $350 Also, RUclips has tutorials on how to remove the stereo, which is why I didn’t include the removal on this video.
what size is your radio...will 7' fit in?
7' will fit. its the same specs as the factory unit.
any double din or single din radio will fit. But go with a double din. It will look a lot cleaner.
what model is it exactly does anyone know
www.z1motorsports.com/audio-and-antenna/infiniti/03-04-oem-jdm-g35-double-din-radio-bezel-p-8463.html
Man what state ur in
How do you keep the voice communication part for the navigation while doing this. I would actually like to have that work.
Jacob Laskey from my knowledge, you can’t get it back. Plus, I’m running the ‘04 Navi disc so, most of the roads now didn’t exist back then lol I just use google maps on my iPhone.
Around my area it hasnt changed much and i used to get to Ohio and back, it did well, only ran into one road that changed. But some times i drive passed the road because i forgot to look at it. Its also hard to use google maps and hold the phone while driving a stick shift car, but thanks anyways.
Right on, since the CD player I have now has Bluetooth/usb the gps goes thru the speakers. Plus I have one of those magnets on my dash that props my phone up. It gets the job done
Yeah i forgot about those new radios with nav, thats a good way to go. I like using the stock nav, there is a company that makes updates for different navigation systems, for different makes and models. I dont know if a g35 is on that list.
@@DjDelsMusic canyou use your navi screen to play dvds or files from usb????
after the radio install u did .. did all of the functions still work on the oem navigation still worl like for fuel and oil and trip ? as well as gps ?
FOREVER G35 yes, the fuel/oil/trip works. Everything is the same except for the “voice system” for GPS.
Mark Reidel ok so did u add any Special box to make it work or is that seperate from radio because i been to 4 shops and they keep telling me that it will not b on and it will b blank screen ?
Mark Reidel u gt a sub from me thanks for ur help bro now i know its notvimpossible lik i been gtn told latey
I have the iSimple box (which is shown being installed in the video) which is separate the the head unit. So, I know that works. Other commenters (see below) said it’s not required.
Mark Reidel what kit did u use did it say without navi ? they cant seem to find a kit that will work out here and i couldnt find on ebay lik u said
Where can I look to find a double din for a 2005 with oem like buttons?
Nissanraceshop.com has it online for $349. or search eBay for a used kit
Mark Reidel you can also get the dual climate control unit from enjuku racing.com for about $200$
so the navigation unit can just be screwed right in.... control panel, screen and all without modifying anything on the new jdm kit?? and how is the navigation unit even powered???
babloo1666 that’s correct. As long as your double din Navi comes with the brackets. Check out around 1:50 in the video for reference. It’s a couple of Phillips screws holding it in. Lmk if you have any more questions!
babloo1666 also, your stock Navi is powered by a separate port in the back. Nothing to do with the radio itself
Ok hadn't realized you had replied thanks! So my 03 g35 doesnt have a stock navigation kit, what I'm going to do is just get the screen part of it and bolt it to that steel back panel with the four screws to hold it in. And then reinstall into the dash pocket and then line up the jdm double din kit with the AC units on the sides. I'm going to take apart the stock navi screen unit, remove the screen and put a Samsung tab A 7 inch in its place. I will also be getting a kenwood double din because I like the DVD playability, I want one with cell phone mirroring capability, as well as back up camera compatibility.
The screws at 1:50 look like they are used to hold the double din unit ie kenwood the navi screen looks like those 4 screws on the upper back panel...
One more question....can you explain that 2nd ground you did so you can play DVD with the parking brake down....is that ground coming from the parking brake itself?? Thanks for this video I learned alot.of initial knowledge in prep for undertaking this project, I'm a newbie so it helps a lot!
@@DjDelsMusic the stand alone navi screens on Ebay don't seem to have that port to power it, but I can still press the center button to release it and push down on it to close it.
babloo1666 yo got your comment, I’ll get back to you in a bit with more info
Did that radio come with the jdm kit?
for spending $300+ on the kit, you would think a radio would come with it but no, it does not.
Can you tell me what website you got this from
I bought it from eBay. So check eBay or do a google search to find a seller. Expect to spend around $350 new
hey brother is this the same setup for the 2003 fx45
Jason pritchett sup man. This model will fit on the 2003-2004 g35. I'm sure they have other kits for the fx models. Let me know if you have any other questions
Mark Reidel sup mark man. The fx 45 been giving me headache lol I need a step to step how how to make minds work I remember in bosses systems when you take the stereo out the amp don't work no more to make the speakers turn on ?? Over all I need the View of how you make it work
I just looked at the FX45. I can see why you're getting a headache lol. That's not going to be an easy install. From my understanding, you're going to have to relocate factory headunit (the screen thats already in your car) and purchase some type of wiring kit to wire the new headunit to the factory headunit. I wish I could help ya out. Or just sell the FX and get a G :)
how do I keep stock navigation?
+dabillionaire90z just take it off the stock unit and put it in the same way on the new dash kit
shift for infiniti G35
Dam this i going to be alot of work
are you able to send me the link to where you got this? itried looking but i cant find it nywhere
try this link. www.nissanraceshop.com/product/jdm-nissan-double-din-kit-03-04-g35-black/
also does it come with the pop up nav if not where did you get that ? im having a hard time finding everything but that link you sent worked!
The navi is an upgraded feature that came with the car. The kit will still work for non-navi g35s
yeah what i ment was am i able to buy the nav and add it in ?
Oh shit, that's a good question. I'm sure it's possible but would prob be expensive. The navi has a DVD player wired into the car above the glove box and has 2 plugs wired into the harness. Plus, the map package is another $200. I'd recommend getting a head unit that has navi build in.
Spend the extra money. that shit is 100 dollars extra
what is the title of the song at the end?
Song is called "Late Night Hook-Up" By: Frederick Savant. He's a local artist that I record. heres the link ruclips.net/video/CEYcoyQM5FY/видео.html
Thank you , I really want to add an aftermarket double din unit on my 04g35, but the wires are really scare me. :(
It's easier than it looks. RUclips has plenty of tutorials on how to connect wires. If you still do not feel confident enough, ask a friend or bring it to a shop. It's worth the swap.
Where did you get the bracket for this ? Can you put a link
Can you send me the link to the kit
Unfortunately, I can't find any links. The kits pop up on Google from time to time from random distributors. Best bet is to search Ebay. Currently, there are a few used ones for $230-$300.
Mark Reidel ...go to nissanraceshop.com the original kits costs $350 and they have the different dash colors.
just got a 2004 g35. this is the first thing im trying to do to it. do you have a specific radio that you favor over the others?
+Raquibbi Samaun Nah, it is all preference. I chosen the Kenwood because it had all the features that I wanted.
oh alright. and i have another question how do u know if the radio you choose will fit in the kit?
+Raquibbi Samaun just measure the stock head unit and find a replacement that is similar in dimensions. Most double din head units now are basically all the same size. you shouldn't have any problems with that. Also, the dimensions of the kit should be posted. if you can't find the measurements of the kit, let me know and ill measure mine for you.
Do you happen to live near Chicago? If you do then I would just pay you to set this up for me lol....im serious though....
connor gavin I don't do installs, sorry about that. I made the video so ppl wouldn't have to spend any money :) It's easier than it looks; just give it a shot. There's other videos on RUclips that show how to remove the CD player. That's why I skipped that part. Feel free to ask me any questions if you do attempt to install it yourself.
now I see this. my metra on g37 looks cheaper than ford
Link?
eBay or google search it.
why so much money for that? I'm going to get me a g35 I hope it don't put a hole in my pocket that's a lot of money for a simple kit smh I might take my stereo out n cut it n put the double din stereo lol
TURO TRAGEDIA on the JDM dash kit, the temp control gauge is a separate unit. So basically the added cost is paying for that. On the stock dash kit, The temp control gauge and CD player are wired together to computer board. Hopefully I'm explaining it well lol
TURO TRAGEDIA plus no other company reproduces the exact kit so they can charge whatever they want.
so is it possible to just cut a hole out in the factory dash
Adrian Rivero no, because on the factory unit, the temp gauge and CD player are mounted to the same huge computer chip that is on the other side of the face plate. In other words, if you were to cut a hole out, you'd be cutting part of the computer chip and therefore, your temp gauge will not work. If anybody wants a visual, I can email you guys a picture of it. Just reply with an email address
oh ok thanks for the info man I'm just going to buy the jdm for like $250 on eBay but they just got the black one and I need a silver one idk how that's going to look tho
I’ll uuuii ill get to
ROUTED NOT ROTED

300 sum and can't even get the dual climate
