Just a tip when taking out the power window controls, you did scuff your dash a little even though you used the cloth. What you can do instead is take out one of the vents and stick your hand in and push out the harness from the back, no scuffs! Or just use a plastic pry tool lol.
After years and years and a couple more years, I FINALLY bought a Jeep Wrangler!!!!! Super excited, subbed and been watching your vids. Hoping this will be my first mod. Never done anything to a vehicle before, but you simplify things greatly so i'm hoping to be good with this.
I have an iPad installed in my jeep as well, some of the most useful apps that I can think of: 1) google Map or Waze, 2) iBook with jeep user manual in PDF, 3)OBDfusion, 4) GasBuddy, 5) Spodify, 6)inclinometer, 7)GoPro app, 8)notebook that I airdrop notes from my iPhone to the iPad with maintenance intervals, torque specs, fluid type for different components etc.
Thx for doing a video on this awesome head unit! After we watched this video we decided to give it a try. It's been about 2 or 3 weeks we've had the unit in our Wrangler and we love it!!! We use android on a daily basis anyway so we really enjoyed having our fav apps available at anytime. Works amazing with our OBDII and Tourque app. Works with Waze too! We love that we have connection to wifi everywhere and makes it so easy to listen to our library of 5000 songs via Google play music! Couldn't ask for an easier instill as well. Coming with 0 instructions is def a downfall however we just watched your video while installing and it was a breeze. The sound is 10x better then our factory head unit. We also have a sub which is just amazing now! It's like this head unit was just what it needed to work at it's full potential! And the price is out of this world- a true Steal!!! Thx for sharing, we are very happy with this unit! Will be ordering another for our Jeep SRT8 soon!
Thanks for sharing your experience. I am glad you like it as much as I do! It won't be or everybody but I am pleased you are loving it! Thanks for watching!
For those of you asking below: I've had my Dasaita (same as Dex's Seicane, just a different Chinese company) about two years now, and it still works. I've had to reboot it many times, as sometimes it just locks up or gets "stuck" on the loading screen. Like phones, it's gotten slower over time, too. Some apps aren't getting some of the updates, like the RUclips app, for example. However, it's really the only game in town if you want a big-screen Android unit in your Jeep. I love mine. When it dies, and I have no doubt it will, I'll just replace it with a newer model of the same thing.
Amazing video, dude. I couldn't sleep and ended up watching the whole thing! Great camera angles, great information, and the product looks killer. Thank you for sharing!
have you seen the torque pro app with the blu tooth adapter? it's pretty neat... your screen can be all kinds of different gauges that get info from your OBDII port
Great video! I've had an experience with this company, not a good one though. First I have to say that I can't say anything bad about the product, but my issue was with the company. I normally don't talk bad about any company, but I feel I have to share my experience. Seicane contacted me about a month ago asking if I could film a complete installation and review of this unit in exchange for the unit free of charge. I normally turn down companies I've never heard of, but this one intrigued me so I said sure! They asked for my info, name, address etc, I provided them with all of my info and then they contacted me back that day. They asked me to pay them $91.00 for shipping and a deposit for 80% of the total cost of the unit! I said, I thought it was a promo unit in exchange for the video? They replied it is free, you just have to pay us shipping and 80% of the unit and we will refund you if we like the video and if you give a good review! They also wanted me to give an in depth review on their website saying how good this unit is and how much I like it. At this point I just wanted to see if this was a scam, so I said okay, how do I pay the shipping and deposit? They wanted me to pay the shipping to one paypal account and the deposit to a different paypal account! Sound fishy to anyone else? I politely declined their offer. Like I said, I can't say anything bad about the unit itself, but something is a little off with this company. In no way am I saying not to buy from this company, or take anything away from AdventureDex or his video. I'm just sharing my experience with this company.
Thanks for sharing!! Dealing with companies overseas can be difficult. I was not offered or contacted by Seicane to make this video nor did they give me any type of guidelines or restrictions. This video was completely by own making and my honest opinion of it. I love the product but I can also say that communicating with the company was difficult. Thanks for watching!!
Rocky X TV I haven't watched any of your videos yet, but just by briefly looking at your channel, you deserve more views/subscribers. The thumbnails drew me in 😉
Dex, I dig the vid but you should do a true review of the functionality of unit. I mean pros and cons since having it, the ease of syncing/pairing the iPhone/droid. How both work, does it offer a mirroring option, etc...hope you make you one, trying to make my final decision on this unit.
Thanks for the suggestion! I didn't want to do that in this video because I didn't have enough time of use. Once I get some time under my belt, I will do a full review video! Thanks for watching!
That is sweet!! I saw the Alpine unit and they want over $3,000 for it, what a rip off, I am going to go with this one with the OBD2 with blue tooth so that I can monitor the engine. This even comes with the replacement dash where the Alpine you have to cut your factory dash in half. Thanks for posting!!
Just installed one in my Jeep. Working with the seller because they changed the wiring off the CAN BUS unit. Also haven't been able to tether my android phone to it. It will power the phone but not tether. Will be installing a backup cam next to test that.
i love wranglers the most out of all the cars, its the most modifiable car to every exist, and its so so so popular in america and anywhere else on earth and everyone loves it❤️
Come back to us in a couple weeks man. I've seen a bunch o bad reviews about the company and their products. I'm hoping it's better than described. I've been looking all around for something like this with this price range. Also want to know how the warranty is as well and how long did it take to shop?
Thanks for the comment John! I will do an update video to address these concerns! So far so good but time will tell. I do not know about the warranty and it takes about 1-2 weeks! thanks for watching
Great Video! I had a question about multiple camera inputs for it. At 4:37 you're holding a video input cluster of RCA cables. I see three yellow cables, does that mean I can switch to different video inputs? So I can have a rear backup and a left and a right rock camera? Would love to know, since I would order this instantly if it could handle multiple video inputs! Thanks and keep up the great videos!
I saw when you first hooked it up that it showed the open doors, so it must be communicating with the onboard computer. So I'm wondering if it can be used to reset the speed and gear shift point parameters for when you install larger tires?
Great idea! I am sure that it can be done! It is all about finding the right programs to run. I am not a super tech savvy guy but I am sure there are people out there who could do wonders with this head unit! The options are endless!
Can we get an update on this? I’m considering purchasing this unit. I also have an iPhone though. Can I still Bluetooth connect even though this is an android system? Thanks! Great video!
Just installed. Watched your video (and others) several times. Install went very well thanks in large part to you. Other videos all offered tid bits of knowledge that was helpful but I think yours was best hands down. Thank you
I've been running this unit for about a year now with very little issue. Bluetooth will occasionally fail to connect with my phone but it's pretty rare and my phone is a few years old. The dash pieces that come with the unit are cheap but they lined up fine and bolted right in. I give it a thumbs up but I've seen videos stating other wise so it's really a roll of the dice.
Personally, I think Carobotor makes the best head unit. And their guage cluster replacement is nothing short of amazing! I never even thought something like that could be done. And not only did they do it. It's also an incredible unit. I just got both their K1 and J Pro installed and I'm just totally blown away by how cool they are. I feel like I have a whole new car. Plus they threw in the vent lights for free as a Christmas gift! The Batman camera is really good too as far as the visibility and camera quality. I can't overstate how happy I am with their products!!
So how does this thing get updates, and doe it have a standalone wifi or do you have to wifi share? *Update* I realized I missed the part where you mentioned a stand alone sim.
4:13 by heavy liftig what do you mean exactly? like do the cables not come in like that in the plug and play fashion? i do know this video is 4 years old but any thing helps!
No I am not 100% sure but I know they changed the interior in 2012 I believe so that might be an issue! Check the link in the description for details! Thanks for watching!
This looks great. Not a fan on having to use the sirius app for sirius radio, but we will see. My question is, like a phone or tablet, can you create a password for it? This was if you having your jeep serviced or something no one can access your personal apps. Any problem with iet yet? I may order one tomorrow based on your response. Thanks AdventureDex!
+irocz771 That's a very good idea! Never thought of that, I honestly don't know. The system is pretty basic... I am not sure if they thought that deep lol thanks for watching
This looks like a nice unit. Love the size. Bigger is better! For XM or Sirus radio, just download the app and play through that. I would think most peoe have unlimited data today. Good vid, Thx
So since yesterday I saw that the JBL website shows "Coming Soon" but other sites have reported that JBL has taken this unit out of their library, basically canelling its production. What do you know about this? I read some reviews on other sites that said they had one of these units come in their RV and that JBL stated that those units were very early versions that had old firmware that wasn't very good, limiting what you could do with your iphone. Do you have any further info on this to help clear up the discrepencies? Thanks for the reply!
Great install video! You installed a GPS antenna. Did your Jeep not have the nav system from the factory. I have the factory nav, so do you know if can I use the factory GPS antenna?
Hi Dex, I will start by saying that I love your videos. Very informative and your presentation is great! I purchased this radio straight from the manufacturer and could not wait to get it. Received the radio and dash kit and was so excited to install it. After installing the radio I also had purchased the wireless back up cam that is an option with this radio and I am experiencing some issues. The radio keep freezing on me and I have to reset it all the time. Major bummer. Also, the back up camera only works some of the time. Not sure if it's because it's wireless or not. They also sent me the wrong dash kit. I have a 2016 Black Bear and they keep sending me the previous models dash. Is there any trouble shooting that you can advise me on. Please. Also still have not received the right dash kit! Thanks in advance for your response! Keep up the good work with the videos! Adam
Hi Adam, sorry to hear about your troubles! I would demand a full refund or the correct dash. If this email does not get resolved please email me at info@adventuredexonline.com Thanks!
Great review and install!! I've been looking to do this mod on my 2012. Thanks for all the helpful tips! Looking forward to the 6 months later review to see how you like it then! Keep up the great work!
Few questions. It's almost identical to the Alpine X109. 1 is can you access the rear view camera without having to shift it in reverse. 2 is can you control accessories such as a winch and light bar and such like the Apline X109 can?
+beniaminv great questions! It is very similar to the Alpine however I am sure there are two differences. Price and quality. With that said, to answer your questions. 1. I have not found a way to do that yet but all it would take is some programming. 2. That is a cool idea but again someone would need to programs an app for that. Thanks for watching
AdventureDex thanks for the response. Yea I'm sure price is very different. Considering the Alpine is almost 4 grand lol. Would the Maestro work on this unit?
AdventureDex , Spod makes a Bluetooth controller and app to remotely control 6-8 switches for their relay setup. I'd bet the app would work on the seicane display.
Thanks for posting. I have bought a few of these from Chinese factories for other installations and have only had great support from Seicane. Thanks for posting a link directly to their site. Bought one for my own Jeep today!
Great video This is the best review/install of this radio on youtube. Good job. I would love to hear a update about the radio. There has been comments and posts about the radio reliability issue. we have been waiting for such a radio for our jeeps. Thanks again. excellent job. well put together
If you were to install this head unit at the same time as installing a backup camera, would you still need to splice into power or is that no longer necessary do to a fixed power connection? Thanks, you Rock!
Thinking of ordering today. Two questions AdventureDex. 1) You still happy and is there anything I need to know? 2) There are add on items, like rear camera. Are they plug and play to the new unit? Thee price jumped up a bit $499.
Thanks for the comment! I am still happy with it, its holding up great. Only a few minor issues when my battery was going dead, it was causing the unit to keep rebooting. New battery and it works perfect now. I didn't get any off the add on personally! Thanks for watching!
Question, does the USB connectors affiliate with the center console at all. My wrangler 2017 has a connection in the center console and id like to integrate that but not sure how the wires for that go. Also noticed that the speakers are different for your year model. Im assuming the manufacturers have different layouts for the dash depending on the year.
+PunisherSpirit No I don't have any connections in my center console, although I could run it there if desired. The tweeter speakers on the dash changed in 2015, I have a 2014. Just let them know which year you have. Thanks for watching
what adventuredex guy isn't telling you is that this head is not compatible with your 2017 cause he sponsored by them and gets free stuff but it says no to 2017 model on the seicane site and don't think he even mentioned who made the head...www.seicane.com/hd-touch-screen-2011-2016-jeep-wrangler-android-gps-navigation-radio-with-mirror-link-obd2-digital-tv-wifi-bluetooth-music-steering-wheel-control-rearview-camera-s301171
What are you talking about... when did I say it was compatible with a 2017? Also I make these videos to help viewers the best I can but at the end of the day it’s still up to you to do your own research for your own jeep.
Guys there is a difference in dashboard i believe 2007 to 2011 had pod speakers which have different sytle dash and 2011 to 2017 have flat speakers so that dashboard is different you will need to send in your dash pic to the seller Chinese or seicane for them to send you the right head unit with right dashboard
Awesome video. I’m going to set my coins aside now so I can get this unit. What model backup camera do you have? Where is the camera located? Thanks again.
Always enjoy your videos man, very informative and well done. Wondering if this would be compatible with a jeep that dosn't have the power windows. 2012 Sport to be specific. Thanks man. Keep it up
Thanks alot!! I am not sure but feel free to check the link in the description. I don't think the power windows is an issue it has the same slot just without the buttons lol. Thanks for watching!
The question I have for you. Regarding the camera system. Will it record as you're driving. In case you get into an accident, or someone hit you. You have video proof? And where does it get stored?
Hey i got the same screen but it sounds really different than the original..the sound has no character now and the subwoofer sounds very low..any ideas to solve this?
If you don't swap the wires the sound will be horrible. There are wires to swap I'm not sure which ones a friend of mines that works for a shop had to pry it out of the makers in china
That thing is a monster! My wife is going to ban me from watching you on RUclips bro haha! stock Bluetooth calling in my Wrangler is horrible. bigger display + clearer calls is a win in my book. thanks for posting the video!!!!
Dex, did the replacement dashboard that came with your stereo head have some fitment issues? Mine doesn't exactly line up as I hoped it would. It's nothing that can't be fixed with some effort, but the gauge cluster surround doesn't exactly fit on the far left side near the door.
No problem. Another thing I just noticed while re-watching this is that the white panel clips on the stock dashboard need to be removed and placed on the new panels to make them 'snap' into place better. I just went back and installed them on mine.
adventuredex installed some massive metal bar you can briefly see at the end of the video that he did not talk about if you look closely it obviously pushed the dash console down and into fit so no gap is seen he doesn't mention this cause it shows a flaw in the product hes sponsored for advertising.
First of all, don’t question my integrity or the honesty of my channel. Receiving a product has nothing to do with my videos and to be clear I paid to get this headunit. Secondly, if you read my comment above I clearly said it for about 95% perfect. If you don’t like my content don’t watch it! This is a Jeep community and we don’t need your negativity here.
This is a sweet set up. Wish they made one for the TJ. I could use this on the trails. It would be helpful. AdventureDex when are you going to go on a trail run? You can show your audience why all of these upgrades will make your Jeep better equipped for wheeling and not just have the "look". I hope you are not a mall crawler!!
Yes that would be cool! I just posted a trail video a couple weeks ago and I have more on the way! This Jeep gets dirty! Thanks for watching! #jeepwave
Can you do an update on this product? I’m sure there are a lot of people who would love to purchase the product but want to know how it’s holding up. Thank you
If you wanted to get the screen but also wanted a reverse camera, do you have to have the wiring for the camera installed already then add the screen or does the screen come with the reverse camera option. Also do you suggested that I get all this done by the car dealership or somewhere else, also how much do you think all of that will cost. Great Video!!!!
Thanks for the comment! The screen comes with compatibility for back up camera. So once its wired you simply have to plug the input to the camera in so it can display. I have a full tutorial on how to install a back up camera if you want to do it yourself. Thanks for watching!
So this has everything needed ???? I'm looking at getting a radio right now and I have to buy the extra harness for the steering wheel controls. I have a 2016 JKU with the 11speaker alpine system. And after having it for some time do you still recommend it
4 things I hate about this is the screen resolution is only 1024 x 600. My Lenovo tablet is 1920 x 1080! Movies look amazing on my tablet. The second thing I hate about having Android in a head unit is very soon the operating system will be out of date. Also I noticed it only has 2gig of ram. You need at least 4gig. And finaly, They don't have a kit for my right hand drive diesel JK wrangler diesel.
this audi sound like it was recorded on a a device the transfered to a computer and took the camera and recorded thd audio from the computer with a vid overlay
Thanks for the comment! I am always trying to improve the quality of the videos and audio is one of those things that can be hard to perfect! At least your didn't tell me to go drink bleach! LOL Thanks for watching!
Great video. Excited to see a follow up. Let us know how it holds up. Plus I would love to know how well it works with Bluetooth from your phone. My OEM Jeep stereo has a horrible lag when streaming music. Does this one?? And lastly how well is build and theft protection. Keep up the great vids!!
J Leiss hey dumb ass if the engine light is not on in accessories mode it means there is a problem that's the only time a check engine light is good, don't comment if you don't know your shit bro
J Leiss I bet your bicycle engine light is always off... if you've ever driven ANY car, you'd know the engine light is always ON in a RUN (engine OFF) position... ;)
Hey I bought this and installed it. VERY NICE. My question is, Is there anything I need to do to get the sub-woofer to the sound it was with the factory radio? It's good, but again, not where it was.
Thanks for the comment! Try adjusting the levels of your Amp, I am no audio professional but that is how I tuned mine. Worst case take it to an audio shop! Thanks for watching!
Just bought it love the features! But having a problem with the audio with the factory subwoofer and roll cage speakers, have you experienced any of these? Love the videos!
The problem with the app is that I would be using my cell phone minutes. That would be expensive on a cross country trip. I wonder if, instead, the radio would be compatible with the Sirius SXV300v1 tuner? Has anyone tried it that way?
No. I'm not using my cellphone minutes or 5 GBytes of downloads for this. Once 5G comes out, may be cell phone service will be cheaper. I'll put my money to work someplace else for now.
Sorry if this was asked already but there is a lot of comments to read. Does it have any type of theft deterrent? My jeep is stripped down most of the summer so I wouldn't want it ripped out on me.
Great question! This doesn't have an official theft deterrent however it is not so simply to take down the entire dash to steal this unit. They would need alot of tools and time! Thanks for watching!!
David Olsen these chinese unit are purpose built for the exact model so if a thief want to steal it he have too take every part of the unit including the dash assembly to make it usable. Unlike pioneer and kenwood who units are universal, the thief would just spent a few minute and rip out the head unit and use it in any car...
Just a tip when taking out the power window controls, you did scuff your dash a little even though you used the cloth. What you can do instead is take out one of the vents and stick your hand in and push out the harness from the back, no scuffs! Or just use a plastic pry tool lol.
+Shey Vick genius!!!! Thanks for the input!
After years and years and a couple more years, I FINALLY bought a Jeep Wrangler!!!!! Super excited, subbed and been watching your vids. Hoping this will be my first mod. Never done anything to a vehicle before, but you simplify things greatly so i'm hoping to be good with this.
You did a great job with the intro dude! Really enjoy your videos brother.

Thanks for sharing Jack!!
I ordered this unit. It took awhile to receive it, however it's a very dope display. I really love it and it totally worth the money
Thanks for sharing! The product is mostly likely coming from China so will take longer than usual. If you have more trouble contact them and complain!
Hey what website did you purchased your screen from?
Thx for doing a video on this awesome head unit! After we watched this video we decided to give it a try. It's been about 2 or 3 weeks we've had the unit in our Wrangler and we love it!!!

Do you still have it on there? Could you do an update video on it?
I’m sure it doesn’t work
Still working fine. I still use it everyday and only have a few complaints. Mostly about the integration of apps.
AdventureDex how is it holding up still
Don't believe watt this fuking guy said this unit is a piece off shit
How's yours running i had got one for mt 17 Wrangler do you get good voltage out of the USBs for charging. Does the balance on the eq work?
For those of you asking below: I've had my Dasaita (same as Dex's Seicane, just a different Chinese company) about two years now, and it still works.

Yes, i will in the future! Thanks for watching!
So how is the android display so far? it's really worth the buy .? I'm thinking of getting one this week please let me know
Any follow-up? Looking to get one.

I wish I could message you, when you posted this, to warn you. :(

Agreed!! 🙌🏼

@@adventuredex . Where can I buy one?
@@oumlowe8885 the description
Just installed one in my Jeep. Working with the seller because they changed the wiring off the CAN BUS unit. Also haven't been able to tether my android phone to it. It will power the phone but not tether. Will be installing a backup cam next to test that.
That is strange! I would contact the seller and complain if you are unhappy!
@AdventureDex are you still loving this head unit? I'm thinking about getting one.
hey have you tried adding some custom gauges? there's a few apps that can link with an obd2 reader, and give you more info from your jeep.
Thanks for the suggestion Julio! I was looking into adding that with an OBD2 reader! Great idea! Thanks for watching!
There is a bunch of accessories like back up camera or dash camera made by this copany.

I own 2018 jeep wrangler that didnt come with any navigation/dvd deck system. What will be the best one for me to purchase?
Did u ever find out I have a 2018 one yo
To*
No...so I just purchased a Pioneer
what is the purpose for the bar you put on at 11:55
The bar is by Vector Off road, it mounts, phones and accessories to the dash.
AdventureDex thanks!
Anytime
i love wranglers the most out of all the cars, its the most modifiable car to every exist, and its so so so popular in america and anywhere else on earth and everyone loves it❤️
Totally Agree! #jeepfamily Thanks for watching!
Can you please tell me the brand and model number of this unit an if available on Amazon
Come back to us in a couple weeks man. I've seen a bunch o bad reviews about the company and their products. I'm hoping it's better than described. I've been looking all around for something like this with this price range. Also want to know how the warranty is as well and how long did it take to shop?
Thanks for the comment John! I will do an update video to address these concerns! So far so good but time will tell. I do not know about the warranty and it takes about 1-2 weeks! thanks for watching
Great Video! I had a question about multiple camera inputs for it. At 4:37 you're holding a video input cluster of RCA cables. I see three yellow cables, does that mean I can switch to different video inputs? So I can have a rear backup and a left and a right rock camera? Would love to know, since I would order this instantly if it could handle multiple video inputs! Thanks and keep up the great videos!
Yes, I believe so. Your best bet would be to review the display details to ensure all your accessories are compatible! Thanks for watching!!!
I saw when you first hooked it up that it showed the open doors, so it must be communicating with the onboard computer. So I'm wondering if it can be used to reset the speed and gear shift point parameters for when you install larger tires?
Great idea! I am sure that it can be done! It is all about finding the right programs to run. I am not a super tech savvy guy but I am sure there are people out there who could do wonders with this head unit! The options are endless!
Can we get an update on this? I’m considering purchasing this unit. I also have an iPhone though. Can I still Bluetooth connect even though this is an android system? Thanks! Great video!
does this have CarPlay?
Most andriod stereos have carplay through upgrades. You'd have that option for extra $$
Just installed. Watched your video (and others) several times. Install went very well thanks in large part to you. Other videos all offered tid bits of knowledge that was helpful but I think yours was best hands down. Thank you
I don't own a Jeep but was intrigued.. much praise to you for a flawless walkthrough though. 😎
Thanks alot!!
Great video .... Is it fully compatible with the Uconnect functions ? (Mic.... steering controls... answering calls etc...etc)
Thanks! and Yes!
Everyone wants to know how this held up. Did you have any problems?
I've been running this unit for about a year now with very little issue. Bluetooth will occasionally fail to connect with my phone but it's pretty rare and my phone is a few years old. The dash pieces that come with the unit are cheap but they lined up fine and bolted right in. I give it a thumbs up but I've seen videos stating other wise so it's really a roll of the dice.
Been running it for a long time. No real issues just a few minor complaints. Overall good value for the price!
Thanks for sharing!
Personally, I think Carobotor makes the best head unit. And their guage cluster replacement is nothing short of amazing! I never even thought something like that could be done. And not only did they do it. It's also an incredible unit. I just got both their K1 and J Pro installed and I'm just totally blown away by how cool they are. I feel like I have a whole new car. Plus they threw in the vent lights for free as a Christmas gift! The Batman camera is really good too as far as the visibility and camera quality. I can't overstate how happy I am with their products!!
So how does this thing get updates, and doe it have a standalone wifi or do you have to wifi share?
*Update*
I realized I missed the part where you mentioned a stand alone sim.
4:13 by heavy liftig what do you mean exactly? like do the cables not come in like that in the plug and play fashion? i do know this video is 4 years old but any thing helps!
Don't use a screwdriver wrapped in a towel. Use a plastic spud. You can get 10 of them for $2 from Harbor Freight.
Great video. Keep up the good work.
Looks awesome! I am wondering about the heat though. Inside cab temps can get pretty high if you can't find a tree to park under. Any concerns?
That is a great point, only time will tell! Thanks for watching!
Jeep-ception! Thanks for watching! I hope you guys enjoyed!! Comment below and let me know, is this the BEST Jeep accessory Ever!?! #jeepwave
AdventureDex I'm sure it will but would it fit a 2007 wrangler?
AdventureDex dex can you do a review after a week and couple of months I want to get one but I've heard some bad reviews on it
AdventureDex dude did you buy you from seciane or any other Chinese seller ?
AdventureDex dude nevermind you answered that question in first few second 😊
No I am not 100% sure but I know they changed the interior in 2012 I believe so that might be an issue! Check the link in the description for details! Thanks for watching!
This looks great. Not a fan on having to use the sirius app for sirius radio, but we will see. My question is, like a phone or tablet, can you create a password for it? This was if you having your jeep serviced or something no one can access your personal apps. Any problem with iet yet? I may order one tomorrow based on your response. Thanks AdventureDex!
+irocz771 That's a very good idea! Never thought of that, I honestly don't know. The system is pretty basic... I am not sure if they thought that deep lol thanks for watching
This looks like a nice unit. Love the size. Bigger is better! For XM or Sirus radio, just download the app and play through that. I would think most peoe have unlimited data today. Good vid, Thx
Thanks for sharing Mark!
Looks nice. I have a question though, what's the limitations of customizing the colors and layouts? Can you put your own image on the home screen?
Great question! Yes, you can it is fully customizable! Thanks for watching!
So since yesterday I saw that the JBL website shows "Coming Soon" but other sites have reported that JBL has taken this unit out of their library, basically canelling its production. What do you know about this? I read some reviews on other sites that said they had one of these units come in their RV and that JBL stated that those units were very early versions that had old firmware that wasn't very good, limiting what you could do with your iphone. Do you have any further info on this to help clear up the discrepencies?
Thanks for the reply!
$77.84 for shipping? I still bought it but dang.... This has been over a year now, how is this holding up?
where do you get it
We have the same jeep wrangler model, come check out our store:
www.cardealzz.com
Do you still have it? Does it have CarPlay?
Great install video! You installed a GPS antenna. Did your Jeep not have the nav system from the factory. I have the factory nav, so do you know if can I use the factory GPS antenna?
Great question! I am not sure, sorry! Thanks for watching!
Hi Dex,
I will start by saying that I love your videos. Very informative and your presentation is great! I purchased this radio straight from the manufacturer and could not wait to get it. Received the radio and dash kit and was so excited to install it. After installing the radio I also had purchased the wireless back up cam that is an option with this radio and I am experiencing some issues. The radio keep freezing on me and I have to reset it all the time. Major bummer. Also, the back up camera only works some of the time. Not sure if it's because it's wireless or not. They also sent me the wrong dash kit. I have a 2016 Black Bear and they keep sending me the previous models dash. Is there any trouble shooting that you can advise me on. Please. Also still have not received the right dash kit! Thanks in advance for your response! Keep up the good work with the videos!
Adam
Hi Adam, sorry to hear about your troubles! I would demand a full refund or the correct dash. If this email does not get resolved please email me at info@adventuredexonline.com Thanks!
What's your long term review? Any issues?
0:46 I guess the lift didn't come with larger tires
Tires coming soon! Just need to truss the front axle! Thanks for watching!
That looks like a really cool Jeep accessory. Hopefully when I’m able to get my Jeep Wrangler I’ll be able to get one like it.
Thanks for watching!
Great review and install!! I've been looking to do this mod on my 2012. Thanks for all the helpful tips! Looking forward to the 6 months later review to see how you like it then! Keep up the great work!
Thanks alot Jim! I appreciate the feedback!
It looks good , my question is can i insert a Cell Sim card or do i need another device to make it work with cell service ..
You will need to get the right headunit that can accept the cell sim!
THAT INTRODUCTION WAS AMAZING I JUST SUBSCRIBED AND LIKED
Thanks brother!! Welcome to the channel! #jeepwave
Few questions. It's almost identical to the Alpine X109. 1 is can you access the rear view camera without having to shift it in reverse. 2 is can you control accessories such as a winch and light bar and such like the Apline X109 can?
+beniaminv great questions! It is very similar to the Alpine however I am sure there are two differences. Price and quality. With that said, to answer your questions. 1. I have not found a way to do that yet but all it would take is some programming. 2. That is a cool idea but again someone would need to programs an app for that. Thanks for watching
AdventureDex thanks for the response. Yea I'm sure price is very different. Considering the Alpine is almost 4 grand lol. Would the Maestro work on this unit?
Yes!! I am not sure but it is basically a tablet so anything that you can do on an apple or android you can do on this!
AdventureDex , Spod makes a Bluetooth controller and app to remotely control 6-8 switches for their relay setup. I'd bet the app would work on the seicane display.
Update on it. Does it still good ?
I agree. I'd like to hear if he still likes it...I'm thinking of getting one too.
Thanks for posting. I have bought a few of these from Chinese factories for other installations and have only had great support from Seicane. Thanks for posting a link directly to their site. Bought one for my own Jeep today!
Thanks for sharing! I hope you enjoy your new unit! Thanks for watching!
Great video
This is the best review/install of this radio on youtube. Good job. I would love to hear a update about the radio. There has been comments and posts about the radio reliability issue. we have been waiting for such a radio for our jeeps.
Thanks again. excellent job. well put together
Thanks Teddy! I will see how it goes. If it fails on me then I will definitely do an update video! Thanks for watching!
If you were to install this head unit at the same time as installing a backup camera, would you still need to splice into power or is that no longer necessary do to a fixed power connection? Thanks, you Rock!
Great questions mike! I believe it would still be necessary! Thanks for watching!!
Great video Man! Beautiful Jeep. Did you see the new 2018 JL in person yet? Keep the videos coming! You have a new subscriber!
Thanks!! I have seen the 2018 JL, very interesting! Thanks for joining team adventuredex!
Thinking of ordering today. Two questions AdventureDex. 1) You still happy and is there anything I need to know? 2) There are add on items, like rear camera. Are they plug and play to the new unit? Thee price jumped up a bit $499.
Thanks for the comment! I am still happy with it, its holding up great. Only a few minor issues when my battery was going dead, it was causing the unit to keep rebooting. New battery and it works perfect now. I didn't get any off the add on personally! Thanks for watching!
Can this modification be done on an 89 jeep?
Question, does the USB connectors affiliate with the center console at all. My wrangler 2017 has a connection in the center console and id like to integrate that but not sure how the wires for that go. Also noticed that the speakers are different for your year model. Im assuming the manufacturers have different layouts for the dash depending on the year.
+PunisherSpirit No I don't have any connections in my center console, although I could run it there if desired. The tweeter speakers on the dash changed in 2015, I have a 2014. Just let them know which year you have. Thanks for watching
what adventuredex guy isn't telling you is that this head is not compatible with your 2017 cause he sponsored by them and gets free stuff but it says no to 2017 model on the seicane site and don't think he even mentioned who made the head...www.seicane.com/hd-touch-screen-2011-2016-jeep-wrangler-android-gps-navigation-radio-with-mirror-link-obd2-digital-tv-wifi-bluetooth-music-steering-wheel-control-rearview-camera-s301171
What are you talking about... when did I say it was compatible with a 2017? Also I make these videos to help viewers the best I can but at the end of the day it’s still up to you to do your own research for your own jeep.
Guys there is a difference in dashboard i believe 2007 to 2011 had pod speakers which have different sytle dash and 2011 to 2017 have flat speakers so that dashboard is different you will need to send in your dash pic to the seller Chinese or seicane for them to send you the right head unit with right dashboard
Thanks for sharing!
I have a 2013 and it has pod speakers
The flat speakers didn't start until the 2015 model year
Aaron Jacobs o
Faizan Khan the flat tweeters on the dash came out in the year 2015 and newer
Awesome video. I’m going to set my coins aside now so I can get this unit. What model backup camera do you have? Where is the camera located? Thanks again.
I am running a brand motion back up camera! It goes in the spare tire wheel! Hidden and protected! Thanks for watching!
Always enjoy your videos man, very informative and well done. Wondering if this would be compatible with a jeep that dosn't have the power windows. 2012 Sport to be specific. Thanks man. Keep it up
Thanks alot!! I am not sure but feel free to check the link in the description. I don't think the power windows is an issue it has the same slot just without the buttons lol. Thanks for watching!
The question I have for you. Regarding the camera system. Will it record as you're driving. In case you get into an accident, or someone hit you. You have video proof? And where does it get stored?
Yes exactly! It records to a chip that can be removed and downloaded to a computer. It records all camera angles too! Thanks for watching
How does it sound? Let me know if you need any help with the unit there is some secrete features that few know about
It sounds great! Equal or even better than factory! Id love the help! Dm me on IG!
AdventureDex share the secrets maybe one of them makes this radio a must buy
what are the secrets? Im buying this unit from jeepaccessoriesgta.ca soon
Hey i got the same screen but it sounds really different than the original..the sound has no character now and the subwoofer sounds very low..any ideas to solve this?
If you don't swap the wires the sound will be horrible. There are wires to swap I'm not sure which ones a friend of mines that works for a shop had to pry it out of the makers in china
That thing is a monster! My wife is going to ban me from watching you on RUclips bro haha! stock Bluetooth calling in my Wrangler is horrible. bigger display + clearer calls is a win in my book. thanks for posting the video!!!!
+J Thanks bro! Haha you'll have to sneak into the jeep to watch RUclips when your in the dog house 😜 Thanks for watching
Surprised to see it came in such a huge box...
Lol that just sounds dirty hahaha #jeeplife
Yea, me too. It was packaged very well!
LOL
It's quite okay, just don't tell your friends. 😉
Dex, did the replacement dashboard that came with your stereo head have some fitment issues? Mine doesn't exactly line up as I hoped it would. It's nothing that can't be fixed with some effort, but the gauge cluster surround doesn't exactly fit on the far left side near the door.
Thanks for sharing! Mine fits about 95% small minor issues that I will perfect later on. Thanks for watching!
No problem. Another thing I just noticed while re-watching this is that the white panel clips on the stock dashboard need to be removed and placed on the new panels to make them 'snap' into place better. I just went back and installed them on mine.
adventuredex installed some massive metal bar you can briefly see at the end of the video that he did not talk about if you look closely it obviously pushed the dash console down and into fit so no gap is seen he doesn't mention this cause it shows a flaw in the product hes sponsored for advertising.
First of all, don’t question my integrity or the honesty of my channel. Receiving a product has nothing to do with my videos and to be clear I paid to get this headunit. Secondly, if you read my comment above I clearly said it for about 95% perfect. If you don’t like my content don’t watch it! This is a Jeep community and we don’t need your negativity here.
Stares at check engine light nervously
It's normal on the Jeep. I have a "New to me" Jeep and it just won't go away. The truck runs fine.
This is a sweet set up. Wish they made one for the TJ. I could use this on the trails. It would be helpful.
AdventureDex when are you going to go on a trail run? You can show your audience why all of these upgrades will make your Jeep better equipped for wheeling and not just have the "look". I hope you are not a mall crawler!!
Yes that would be cool!
I just posted a trail video a couple weeks ago and I have more on the way! This Jeep gets dirty!
Thanks for watching! #jeepwave
Still working good?
Yea, I love it! Thanks for watching!!
Can you do an update on this product? I’m sure there are a lot of people who would love to purchase the product but want to know how it’s holding up. Thank you
Thanks for the suggestion! It’s holding up great. I’ll try to make a video!
Nice video. Is there an option for SiriusXM?
Yes! Sirius is once you download the App!
If you wanted to get the screen but also wanted a reverse camera, do you have to have the wiring for the camera installed already then add the screen or does the screen come with the reverse camera option. Also do you suggested that I get all this done by the car dealership or somewhere else, also how much do you think all of that will cost. Great Video!!!!
Thanks for the comment! The screen comes with compatibility for back up camera. So once its wired you simply have to plug the input to the camera in so it can display. I have a full tutorial on how to install a back up camera if you want to do it yourself. Thanks for watching!
Great job on video editing in the beginning. Nicely done.
Thanks Thomas!!
So this has everything needed ???? I'm looking at getting a radio right now and I have to buy the extra harness for the steering wheel controls. I have a 2016 JKU with the 11speaker alpine system. And after having it for some time do you still recommend it
Sucks they dont make one for 2010 or I would buy one.
Agreed!! Thanks for watching!
Mate the there’s a few trails in the Everglades if your ever up for a convoy, I’m based in ftl 🤙
4 things I hate about this is the screen resolution is only 1024 x 600. My Lenovo tablet is 1920 x 1080! Movies look amazing on my tablet. The second thing I hate about having Android in a head unit is very soon the operating system will be out of date. Also I noticed it only has 2gig of ram. You need at least 4gig. And finaly, They don't have a kit for my right hand drive diesel JK wrangler diesel.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
I see that you can hook your phone up via Bluetooth. With that is there a microphone you need or can buy extra?
+Brandon Forcier Yes, exactly! There is a built in mic! Thanks for watching
Great now I just need a jeep
Haha!!
Can you do a video on the eq app. I’m interested in how much control it has for an aftermarket amplifier like the subwoofer for example.
Thanks for the suggestion! I am planning to do an upgrade speaker/sub video in the future. Not sure how soon tho. Thanks for watching!
ordered one
Awesome! You will enjoy it! Thanks for watching!
Hazem A what website???
Where can I get this!???
What is that bar running across your dash? Looks nice
Thanks for watching! That is a vector off road Edock!
@@adventuredex thanks, and BTW, GREAT RIG!
this audi sound like it was recorded on a a device the transfered to a computer and took the camera and recorded thd audio from the computer with a vid overlay
Thanks for the comment! I am always trying to improve the quality of the videos and audio is one of those things that can be hard to perfect! At least your didn't tell me to go drink bleach! LOL Thanks for watching!
I have that radio and i love it
Yes, I thought this was the same one....? It works great!
This android device cost around 300$ US dollars with free installation in Dubai , United Arab Emirates
Really enjoyed this episode! I love the unit, but I don't see that they offer a satellite radio (SiriusXM) module for it.
Thanks alot. You can download the siriusXM app. Thanks for watching!
машина супер, канал хороший, и видео интересные снимаешь, торба лайков
Sorry I cannot read your comment but thanks for watching!
"super car, a good channel, and interesting video shoot, Torba likes it" :)
josei98 спасибо за перевод
Thanks for the translation!
"Torba" is not a name, it's like a big bag in Russian... big bag of likes... lmao
Thank you Dex for demonstrating how to do upgrades to whatever unit a fellow Jeeper chooses. Your a good presenter BTW 🗣
Thanks Gary! I appreciate your feedback! thanks for watching!
my nigga we crashin if i get that
LMAO! for real! Drive safe
Great video. Excited to see a follow up. Let us know how it holds up. Plus I would love to know how well it works with Bluetooth from your phone. My OEM Jeep stereo has a horrible lag when streaming music. Does this one?? And lastly how well is build and theft protection. Keep up the great vids!!
Thanks for the positive feedback! The bluetooth is clear and works very good. So far I have zero complaints, especially for the under $400 price tag!
check engine light 0:18
The engine wasn't on thats why! :p Thanks for watching!
lol, probably the Gas Cap.
J Leiss hey dumb ass if the engine light is not on in accessories mode it means there is a problem that's the only time a check engine light is good, don't comment if you don't know your shit bro
+marshall krabs dude! Why so much anger!?!? Maybe the engine could of been on... let's spread the love not the hate! #jeeplife
J Leiss I bet your bicycle engine light is always off... if you've ever driven ANY car, you'd know the engine light is always ON in a RUN (engine OFF) position... ;)
Hey I bought this and installed it. VERY NICE. My question is, Is there anything I need to do to get the sub-woofer to the sound it was with the factory radio? It's good, but again, not where it was.
Thanks for the comment! Try adjusting the levels of your Amp, I am no audio professional but that is how I tuned mine. Worst case take it to an audio shop! Thanks for watching!
wow never been this early. says "no views" lol
josejr1594 lol
haha Notification Squad!
Just bought it love the features! But having a problem with the audio with the factory subwoofer and roll cage speakers, have you experienced any of these? Love the videos!
Thanks a lot. Might be a blown fuse? Just an idea. Hope that helps!
AdventureDex ok thanks!!
No Sirius satellite. Grrrrrr!
Yes, you can download the SirusXM app! Thanks for watching!
The problem with the app is that I would be using my cell phone minutes. That would be expensive on a cross country trip.
I wonder if, instead, the radio would be compatible with the Sirius SXV300v1 tuner? Has anyone tried it that way?
Did you get it? I am with you on the Sirius. If it works with the tuner I am all in! Let me know.
No. I'm not using my cellphone minutes or 5 GBytes of downloads for this. Once 5G comes out, may be cell phone service will be cheaper. I'll put my money to work someplace else for now.
I meant the Sirius Tuner. But thanks! I am going to look into that compatibility.
Sorry if this was asked already but there is a lot of comments to read. Does it have any type of theft deterrent? My jeep is stripped down most of the summer so I wouldn't want it ripped out on me.
Great question! This doesn't have an official theft deterrent however it is not so simply to take down the entire dash to steal this unit. They would need alot of tools and time! Thanks for watching!!
David Olsen these chinese unit are purpose built for the exact model so if a thief want to steal it he have too take every part of the unit including the dash assembly to make it usable. Unlike pioneer and kenwood who units are universal, the thief would just spent a few minute and rip out the head unit and use it in any car...
Great video but you lost me at Android!
Yea, I know but its still great value for the price! I would be super happy if they made an apple car play version!
Robert Bertels android is god
+sinistermind33 thanks bro!!
I'm a apple guy but this looks nice
Robert Bertels Apple doesn't have cool things like this
