Thank you for the video! I've waited eight years to make the plunge in buying a new head unit for my Mustang. So glad I found this video! It was a huge help in getting everything setup just right. Thanks again!
I purchased the latest Dynavin model 9 Pro and it was easy to swap out from my old not working Navos and this video really helped me out with the install. Thanks
Sorry watched your backup camera install again and saw you had a different camera than the ones dynavin offered. It was the blue wire in case anyone was wondering. 2013 GT premium. 🍻
So did you also have the blinking clock of death? Because mine just started doing that today and I’m wonder if I should buy this to fix and upgrade my stereo at the same time.
@Miguel Madriz my bad. I just reread your comment. But no, I didn't have all of that. I just upgraded because it was about time. My only complaints with it is: 1. Even connected to Hotspot, its still slow. And Android auto seems slow, the map is barely visible in daylight, and just seems useless to me. But other than that, I like it. Isn't as eye catching as I thought it would be lmao.
Just ordered mine. Thanks for the discount code. Every bit helps. I also have had the backup camera since that video just have never installed. Now I can.
Big ups to you man, I just got mine new one delivered, been watching your n7 pro, and. I haven't even watch this video yet and commenting to let you know lol
I am having issues with the usb not working. It works some days and others it doesn't. Honestly didn't even know that It had wireless careplay so that fixes my issue. Thanks for sharing.
Great video, Jacob, thanks for putting it together. Prepping for my install now. Is there a way to continue using the mustang's existing microphone, or do you have to replace it with the included mic?
Unfortunately, after your N7 Pro video I also bought it, would have preferred to wait. But I have to say with the N8 the software is better but still not perfect. I would actually expect more for the price.
How am I just now learning about this head unit? This solves all my problems! I have been looking for a unit exactly like this for *years*! Thanks for making the video.
@@pixxelationsmost are cheap garbage by it's quality and android support being so outdated. Anything over $300 is too much and shouldn't even be that much. In terms for bang for buck Amazon sells kits but they're also not the best
Just installed this unit. I have a shaker 500 and did not need to use the extra harness that is supplied. I set mine up exactly like yours and everything is working perfect
@@themrrd12345it sounds normal to me. I’ve heard not to follow the supplied diagram for some reason. I set it up exactly like he did in the video. I only use wireless CarPlay no wired connection or radio.
@@Camj27i have a shaker 500 system and when i dont use the wiring harness i get a weird hiss coming from the unit. according to the diagram if that happens im supposed to use it. not sure why some need it and others don’t.
Great video..can you pass along the carbon overlay company you used for the mustang. The carbon looks so much better than what I just purchased for my 2011 GT.
I think my radio just kicked the bucket. Was hoping it was just a blown fuse but wasn't that lucky. Looking at this Dynavin and a Navos. (Theres a cheaper option on Amazon called a PX6 but Im a bit skeptical) Not sure which way to go.
Don’t go PX6. I just installed it on my car, and while your driving about every 45 seconds the a/c controls pop up on the screen for no reason. I talked with everyone about it and there is no fix for it. And all of them do it. I’m returning the PX6 tomorrow. I already ordered the dynavin 8 pro. Not to mention the sound quality for the PX6 was terrible. It didn’t sound nearly as good as the stock head unit. I hope the dynavin sounds much better.
@@herethereandgone So I just got my Dynavin in the mail today and installation (thanks to this video) was super simple. Let me put your worries to rest. The sound quality on this thing is amazing in comparison to the stock radio. I have a small 8' MTX bass tubes that I added and it provided some ok bass with the original radio and the quality was a bit better when using the aux. As soon as I fired up the Dynavin though it was like that thing was unleashed (to the point I had to turn the tube down.)
I was reading that the dynavin has better sound quality. Thank you for letting me know! I’m even more excited about my radio to come! How do you have your sub wired? Is your amp hooked up to the 2 speakers in the back, or the head unit?
I purchased the same setup as you. My backup cam is a little loose. Do you remember the nut size so I can try to wrench it tight as I just went hand tight.
How did you connect the red wire? i think everything on mine is screwed thanks to a previous install best buy did. I had a back up camera that worked on the previous radio head and now it doesn't. All i have loose wires everywhere. Ironically i asked best buy if they could install the Dynavin for me, i was willing to pay for that standalone service, the declined because "they don't touch these 'made in china' radios", pissed me off. Do you know anywhere i could go to have this installed?
Does it support displaying the navigation on your phone instead of using the car's navigation? I have an Android and Google maps is far superior to the car's navigation.
I have been fighting with my Dynavin 8 Pro for about 8 Months now, trying to get the steering wheel controls to work. I have a 2013 V6 (Coyote Puppy) without any electric mods and I just can't crack the code and get those suckers to function in my Pony Pup. I am starting to think it is my punishment for not getting a 5.0 Any advice? 😢
had a question about the Dynavin 8 Pro! im thinking about buying it but i see some people give negative reviews about it freezing up. Is it worth it or what problems have u had with it? because i'm thinking about ordering it
Kinda curious if they fixed the button glitching from the N7…my n7 will skip songs and go to other apps when I’m trying to do volume. They say it’s my terminals but all mine are clean…also curious about the start up time..
Hello… would you know how to integrate this to the factory back up camera? I purchased this and installed in my mustang here in manila but got stalled on how to integrate in the factory back up camera. Hope you could help me out and give some guidance 😀🙏
Hey bud can I ask you a seperate question well I just bought the dynavin 8 thanks for the coupon, I bought an amerihood carbon fiber hood do they have large gaps it is it not adjusted correctly the body guy that’s putting it told me do t expect it to be perfect, I’m regretting not putting. The stock one back on unless he doesn’t know how to adjust it,thanks love your channel, I have a 14 gt sterling grey, thanks any info will help
Just installed mine was having some issues with the premium wires working only was able to get the base model one to work, and volume doesn’t go up past 50% any advice?
I had the same problem, but if you disconnect the premium wires and do it his way as a base model even if you have a premium, the audio is very loud. I was sad at first until I did this.
Hey Jacob, just bought the same and received it, I have the sync module and will have to connect it. no problem on that. In your video you''re speaking about a fast charger for your mobile..... I did not find any info on your video, could you provide me more info? thanks and cheers from France ;-)
Are you using the stock antenna or a cheap shorty? I have a “premium” shorty that was $30 ish vs the cheap Amazon $10 ones and that makes a massive improvement. So far so good.
I just recently installed the back up camera that came with dynavin 8 pro and backup camera showing reversed image. Like if I put a water bottle on the right side and on the camera it will show the water bottle on the left side. Is there a fix to this? Thanks
im dropping my car off today with the 8 Pro and the same backup camera. (Ive been holding onto this thing since it dropped lmao probably a new version coming out soon) But anyways any other tips or anything I should let them know about the install other than whats in this video and the "most OEM backup camera" video? Thanks again for these videos!!!
Hey man, this might be a dumb question but i’m just curious. In my 2011 GT my backup camera is in the rear view mirror. Is there a way to display that on to the infotainment screen or would i have to purchase the aftermarket camera to do that.
I’m currently in the middle of installing the head unit in my car. For the dynavin 8, do I still have to plug in the adapter under the glovebox or just leave out that step?
Anyone else having issues with the Zlink disconnecting during wireless carplay? Mine keeps cycling through connecting, establishing connection, then randomly disconnecting
Yo! How did you turn off the Ford Sync system from syncing to your phone? I had a problem with dropping calls because sync would still be connecting. I would have to go in my phone and disconnect from Sync so I could use my calling feature. So annoying. I’m getting the N8 today so hopefully this fixes that. Cheers bro!!
I don't but if you take the part that has the factory mic off you'll see 2 star screws remove those and you'll see the factory mic held by a latch carefully free it don't break it the housing or latch for the mic. The mic has a 2 latches close open the one close to the mic first then you can open the 2nd one, after that break the housing on the aftermarket mic and carefully free it then it's just putting the mic in the factory housing and putting everything back just tuck away the old mic

How’s the dynavin? I’ve heard the 8 had issues
Been waiting 4 months for the n8. FedEx is telling me it will be delivered today. This vid is perfect timing. Thank you.
Perfect!!
Off hand would you remember the color of wire you spliced into off the tail light harness? Was it white/yellow , blue or other? 🙏

How has it worked for you ?
It’s been a good unit. Very pleased with it.
Thanks for the hook up Jacob! Can’t wait for what is in the works.
Of course! Stay tuned 👀 just need parts to ship! Haha
@@JacobRDoty 🤙🤙
I’ve been watching your n7 video for over a year now I’m glad I waited thanks for the vid
No prob! Should be shipping out soon!
Finally broke down and bought one. May be only $50 off, but that $50 was still everything.
Lmao am about to do the same

Would you mind explaining like how you change the start up screen?
Just ordered mine. Thanks for the discount code. Every bit helps. I also have had the backup camera since that video just have never installed. Now I can.

Where do you put the code?

How are the subwoofers wired in
OUTSTANDING, Now how do I add a second camera?
I got mine coming Wednesday let’s go!
Can I use the RCA’s on the back of the radio for subwoofer hook up’s rather than having to get a shop to install a LOC

No prob! 🫡
Just got the ford transit version.
