MAKING MY RADIO NOT SUCK! (JDM DOUBLE DIN LEGACY INSTALL)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- I don't understand why Subaru didn't make these cars without a better head unit option. Oh well! I want to make this car as JDM style as possible and this small interior detail I think is something vital to doing so. I heard about this mod a while ago but was scared off by all the wiring. However as you see in this video it actually wasn't that bad at all! With the help of Cody we got everything in and looking great, while filming, in about an hour and a half. If we were filming we could of done the whole process in 30 mins! Below linked is everything you will need to do this yourself! Hope you enjoyed!

I wish there was a brand called Dimmadome. So we can buy Dimmadome Double Din radios made by Doug Dimmadome, owner of the Dimmsdale Dimmadome.
Chris Insanity I'd back this

Jim Bezos do your thing
This is a great comment
Love that you are making these videos! Can't wait to see what you do. Also just a little note, AWD systems like subarus typically don't like miss matched tires. When 1 tires goes bad we typically replace all with matching tires. It messes up our center diffs.
Haven't watched it all yet obviously, but if the whole video is about installing a double din, 25 minutes might be a bit long... Also, depending how worn down your tires are you'll want to replace all 4. Running different size tires on an AWD car can really fuck things up.
same size tires btw not sure if I said that or not also yea its a little long but just an experiment to see how we should structure future videos =) This one was more of a how to video for people wanting to do the same more than a install video. The install videos of parts to come and what not will for sure be shorter
Krispy Media I figured they were the same size but by different sized tires I meant the difference between the two worn out tires and the two good tires. If there's a difference greater than 3/32nd of an inch it can really stress out the drivetrain on an AWD car.
No worries about the long video man, I'm sure some people will want to watch a how-to in depth 👍
*Found this online, they explained it much better than I could*
Subarus: Subarus have, to our knowledge, the tightest tolerance of any AWD system. Since we see so many, we can tell you what the tolerance is. It can be stated in two ways: The first is 2/32nds tread depth across all four tires. The problem with this is that actual tire dimensions can vary from brand to brand and even from model to model. Therefore the 2/32nds rule is only good if you have the exact same size, brand, and model tire. The other way to check is to measure the tire around the circumference and then the tolerance is 1/4". That was circumference, not diameter, so you have to have a flexible tape ruler and measure around the tread of the tire. Also, having air in the tire affects the circumference. Though the change due to having air in it is only about 1/8", it's pretty critical since the tolerance is only 1/4". Therefore, to get an accurate measurement, it's necessary to let the air out before you measure (since the prospective replacement probably won't be aired up). This second method allows you to check compatibility with any make or model of tire. When we were almost finished with this article, a Subaru came in that needed only one tire, so the picture shows us measuring the prospective replacement tire with our "Subaru Tool".
You may ask what the big deal is? Well, on the Subarus, if all four tires aren't matched within 1/4" around the circumference, you will break the transmission, not maybe or sometimes - it definitely happens. Granted it won't happen overnight, and the AWD on many Subarus can be disabled, but the transmissions can definitely get ruined and then they have to be repaired or replaced. Then the cost will be a lot more than the cost of tires!
+Connor oh word I appreciate all that info! I got the front tires about a month ago and the rears went bad because my alignment was so terrible haha I'll have 4 new tires in about a month :) I appreciate you looking out for me :)
Krispy Media 👍👍
You have no idea how much I was looking for this video
LIL DICKY IS THE SHIT
It's not a true JDM install if you don't find ramen in the dash. Unsubscribed.
that was a joke plz don't kill me Krispy
Abdullah Almousalli 😂
We just did this JDM kit. We didn't buy the wire kit. The sterio plug is pretty simple. The HVAC was a little tricky. There are two plugs left. One is for the HVAC and has a 8 pin with only 3 wires. The other plug is not needed. We cut it off with about two inches of wire. Take this plug apart and use 3 of the pins. Push those into the first plug for the HVAC. One will be a 12v and 2 are dimmer positive and negative. On the JDM site it explains which wires and colors you need. On the 8 pin plug it is numbered 1-8 and it says which hole to put those 3 wires in. It is a little time consuming but not that difficult. We ran a 2000 watt amp so we pulled the stock amp out from under the passenger seat. Take the seat out. Run speaker wires from new amp to old amp location. One plug has 10 wires. 8 are positive and negative speaker wires to front and back doors. The two bigger red wires and not needed but are 12v so tape them up. You can ohm test these from this point straight to each door. On the plug you can tell which wires are for each speaker but not location. I cheated and didn't want to pull the doors apart so I cut the plug off an old pair of headphones and plugged it into my phone and touched it to each pair of wires. Hooked amp up and it now my stereo doesn't SUCK!
You have such a funny personality which makes your videos entertaining to watch Krispy!
thank you so much krispy for this video, I have a 06 outback and have been trying to find a solution to the same issue of not having an aux cord. Finally have a clear install video for how to do this modification cannot thank you enough
This is so clutch man, i've been looking for a solution for my car (06 outback sedan, same unit) for like 2 years. So happy there's a way.
I like this new stuff krispy your channel has become extremely diverse and this is just another good example I'm looking forward to new things to come
Just a small Observation and info the Gap around the radio is because USDM Double dins are smaller than the Asian Market Double dins, I ordered a asian Market Android radio and had to do some slight trimming on my 2003 Outback Limited 5 Spd Wagon.
Hi! I have a 2008 Outback with factory navigation (in the exact spot where that top compartment and clock is in your car). I bought the car used a week ago, and the navigation screen is broken. I'm looking to replace it entirely with an aftermarket one rather than repair the factory screen (because that one doesn't have Bluetooth and other features that the aftermarket ones tend to have). Do you know if it's possible to install it in the area above the climate controls? I would hate to have a dead screen on top and a working one on bottom.
Brazil looks nice this time of year.
You guys are funny as hell, great vid and clearly having friends that know electronics pays for itself!
Thank you Kris for posting this, I have on 05 leggy and was told there is no hope for a new unit other than factory....
Yo this was the best install vid ive seen in a long while. Keep it up brotha, cant wait for the next one 😎
Can't wait for the upcoming install videos
make sure to do a short shifter conversion aye, that is one of the best mods for how cheap it can be, changes the feel of the car so much.
I know the vlogs are short, impromptu clips from your phone, but I think using one of those portable stabilizing gimbals would massively improve the quality. Love the video!
Does putting bags on your car negatively affect ride quality? like will it make harder for you to do rolling shots of other cars now? or is it like negligible
actually my hypothesis is that it will actually make the rider and shots smoother. I have it planed once their on to do a video where I show rollers using my bagged car vs before it was bagged so we will see!
Krispy Media awesome!
Putting bags on a car does not negatively impact ride quality if you install an Airlift or Accuair kit that is designed to bolt onto your specified vehicle as the dampening rates are adjusted for that particular vehicle. Bag over coils setups with UAS bags and similar don't offer a comfortable ride as the dampening / sometimes cut struts will cause the bag to rub. Some bag over coilover setups like Airforce actually have a 36 level dampening system to negate bad ride quality when on bags. But a kit is much more desirable and will cause less headaches tbh.
Installed and the ac /heater dosnt work. Is there any suggestions? Pretty straight forward procedure just pulling and plugging . Do I have to program anything ? Or maybe part is defective?
Sergio Espinoza get a rag put in the gas tank light it up and it’ll fix it self
This is my next mod on my STi, Subarus tend to have pretty bad decks stock...
Looks great ! Can't wait to see how the build turns out
Hi, I am looking for the Radio Wiring Harness. I clicked on the link above but no answer. Do you know if there is another place to buy the wiring harness for a 2006 Subaru Legacy. thank you
How is it JDM? JDM cars had the option of a nav screen up above where the cubby hole is...?
do the temp setting knobs correspond to the correct side or are they flipped? the one closest to drive controls driver temp?
Nice Radio unit it looks a little bit better than the original version that came with the car! Hopefully I can get one for my 2006 Subaru Legacy Wagon!
I love the fact that the car is hemorrhaging whatever fluids and the most important thing to you is the sound system 👍
It what makes a subaru owner a subaru owner
Just picked up a 05 LGT Wagon...this helped lol
BrotherMan Nick l
How do I purchase from ae64?
dang that changes the whole look of the interior! It looks so clean
Thanks for posting the vid, Krispy. It was about time someone made one for this type of install. Here are some helpful links: [click the "Read more" link, below]
This page explains which models/years need the JDM dual-DIN HVAC panel kit, and describes the items that you may want, plus has useful tips:
ae64.com/aftermarket-HU-install-parts-LO2005AN.htm
Wiring instructions are in this post (on the LegacyGT forums):
legacygt.com/forums/showpost.php?p=2570925&postcount=637
This post further explains which cars need which JDM HVAC panel kit:
legacygt.com/forums/showpost.php?p=5684242&postcount=3057
Cars with manual A/C controls (the 3 larger round knobs, no digital temperature setting) do not need the i88 harness. You only need one of the less-expensive dash kits that have a single- or double-DIN opening and the same round holes to keep using your car's existing A/C controls: Scosche SU2025B, Metra 95-8901, or Metra 99-8901. Sorry, those are designed only for LHD cars.
Links aren't there anymore
Did you click on the blue "Read more" link to open up the rest of what I wrote? When I do that, I still see the rest of my text and links, even when I view this vid while not logged in. Is anyone else not seeing them?
are you still making the harnesses i did email you
Hey Krispy -- my post above somehow became unpinned. Would you please pin it again? Thanks!
tried to email that guy and he never replied have you had any luck when you first tried to reach out to the guy that makes that piece for the double din?
Great video thanks! I am thinking probably to do the same work on my Outback 2008, I have just a couple of questions/doubts. 1) Do you know if it is possible to have on the display the temperature in celsius and not only in Fahrenheit? 2) Is there a reason why you didn't put the touch on the standard spot for the navi, where you have the little glove box on top? Mine as well as the glove box there and I am wondering which could be the best solution. 3) I saw you installed it in 2017. After 2 years would you buy the same Sony Unit or not? The problem with the switch controller probably could be a reason to look for some alternative units? Thanks a lot!
Yes
is there a way to color match the silver bit down below around the transmission to the color of the new stereo housing?
Paint them both
how can you get this kit or where can you get it ?
So excited for this build, I love all the videos man you make amazing content and really do inspire me!
This was possibly the best install video I've ever seen lol
The double din link doesn’t work anymore, is there a new link?
avojdm.com/dual-zone-av-panel-set-h6217ag911/
Your welcome
300 bucks!?
I need to do this so I can get a backup camera, Bluetooth and better radio and just need to take off my radio/ac & clean the grounds so it’ll work again.
this video was actually hella funny😂 keep it up with these good installs!
Excited to see how this build comes along!
I think i have the same radio as yours i recently bought a subaru legacy 2006 gt but one thing is that the aux cord doesnt work what would you recommend doing?
So you can’t remove and reuse the stock AC unit? I have a 2005 outback and would love to do this, thx.
I followed instructions on the harness page and cant seem to find a way to order anything. Do you have to email in order for you to buy them? I tried emailing and haven't heard back yet.
I have a 2006 ob xt with stock navigation system. can i do this?
I've been subscribed to this channel for only a little bit, I love the cinematography of the car meet videos, and I really like this tutorial video style. i work on automotive projects from time to time, and its refreshing to see others recording the experience. keep it up Krispy! (oh and are you considering coming to Detroit for the dream cruise?)
Awesome video! Im still debating on doing this. So expensive. Currently i just have a cheap FM Transmitter that i hook up an aux cord to my Leggy GT. Looking forward to more Install videos! Keep em up!
Just to confirm the harness purchased on ae46 was the i88? Correct?
will this same head unit/set up if in my 2005 impreza?
Love the vids so far. Hyped for the other install vids
Hey guys, anyone knows where to get this exact 2din adapter? The link in the video description doesn't work anymore... :(
I'm not sure if you or anyone still reply to comments on this old video but I really need help/ information on how you would do this with a JDM version of the Legacy GT. My JDM version has a similar (but flipped) dual-zone climate control to the one seen here stock, but also has a Japanese nav unit on top where this one just has little door/shelf. Is it possible to replace this top nav unit with a double din head unit like the one you put into the radio spot, without having to buy the expensive separate JDM climate control unit, faceplate to fit head unit, and wiring pieces to wire it all? I have no idea how the wiring for the Japanese head unit works, or how the Navigation unit is connected, but if I just left the nav unit on top, could I just follow what you have done the same way? Or is the JDM version of the vehicle different with maybe the wiring harness, climate control unit, etc. I really have no clue and am new to this so any help or links to pages that explain this stuff would be great. Also if anyone knows if I can replace the JDM navigation unit with an English one somehow, that would be very helpful as I can't find information anywhere.
HELP! The Wiring Harness diagram photos got deleted!
yah i have a 2006 spec b and the stock stereo is a terrible design for aftermarket stereos
great job on the first install! cant wait to see the end result of your build!!
Hey you could've bought the silver/grey coloured 2DIN cover and AC unit. They're just different part numbers. The black one is for S402 and the Tuned by STi black interior and other ones are grey. I have a JDM GT spec B and a JDM STi with both colours :) But the black center console (and interior with black headlining) is way cooler! But cool vid - thanks!
Nice upgrade for the Subie dad.
im gonna love these vids. can't wait to see your stance wars vegas coverage!
this is my favorite video right now, I need more like thisssss!!
Does that work with the McIntosh stock amp under the seat? Or did you guys have to replace it with a after market 5 channel amp??
Hey im thinking of doing this i live in australia though so might not need all the adapters, also that volume nob is tiny and scuffed xD am i limited to the headunit models ? or can i get anyone.
Does anyone have a compete wiring diagram that includes all of the extra conectors included? My car is already completely taken apart and so I need it asap thanks. 16 pin, 3 pin, 8 pin.
Hi. Where did you get the smart card thingy and what is it? Can't find it..
So it doesn’t give me a way to buy this harness on that website so what do I do?
Is Celcius/Fahrenheit something to take in consideration or is that information coming from the car? Just beginning my look into the matter for my 04 sedan. Since I would really want to keep the left hand instruments I'll try to find a way to do so. Does this, or anything like it, come as EU or USA made? Guessing since you go with it that's not an option. Would it be any chance to rebuild the JDM part? Otherwise this was a sweet upgrade from the 90's audio system.
Is it true Double Din? Fit a AVIC-8200NEX? Can a USB port be installed through it?
WIll this work on a 2009 LGT w/ steering wheel controls?
i have the same question
I plan on doing a similar instal on my 2007 legacy. I’m not going to replace the have unit though, and plan on using the power akoustic cp650 radio my only question is where to find the separate wiring harness for the antenna and radio, can you point me in the right direction? I can find the radio harness no problem but I feel like I’m going to need more than one as there are more than one harness that connects to the back of my stock radio
Not going to replace the *hvac unit
How do I find the Japanese HVAC controls???
How much does it cost for everything thanks.
How is this holding up after about a year?
that "anotha one" killed me lmao
Come to Importfest in Canada this august! And loved this install video man, can't wait to see more!
Actually super keen for these.
Hey please let me know where you got it from
Hey bro
I am also on the same project as here in the video. Is this a 1 zone air conditioner? If so, I have one more question.
Thanks and greetings from Switzerland
Gregor
do you have any close up pics or vids of the hole you had to drill to fit the new hazard button?
i cant seem to get the illumination on my unit to work. any help?
Next time buy some dark foam weatherstrip tape from homedepot at the A/C department. It's like $1.99. Wrap some around the connectors/adapters so they won't rattle and around the gap from your HU to the dash kit so you won't see that annoying gap.
Is the temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit
Here guys great video just got mine installed but one question did you have low light issues in the temperature area when you turn you headlights on at night? With mine you can't really see the dial temperature numbers and digital board.
DUDE! I seen Cody at the galleria mall a week or so ago. he was wearing that hat!
i have a 2006 Legacy GT limited 5 sp auto that has a catless up pipe and down pipe also and a tune
i also had ordered the same JDM dbl din also and waiting for the guy to e-mail me back about the harness set up
Thanks to this video I installed this awesome double DIN on my Subaru Outback. I love it but I would like to find a solution for the gap between the Sony and the plastic frame in the console around it. As you in the video say, everything is around a couple of mm too much inside, I would love to make it even with the frame. Any idea? For instance if I try to make the holes where you fix the Sony to the frame with the screws bigger (at 14:56 in the video...) probably I have the chance to push the frame a couple of mm back, or not?
Where did you buy the JDM unit?!
How big of a display screen could fit in the jdm?
Im excited to see more install videos as well as all your usual amazing content!
Gonna be a badass build
Looks really clean and tidy.
Please link the site where I can buy one. I can't find it anywhere. Only the one for the manual controls.
You can find the HVAC / Double DIN Adapter by searching for H6217AG911 and the hazard switch is 83037AG001
showin love from NM, keep it up brotha!
Also I’d love to do this to mine but unsure if I can get the custom made harnesses because I live down under.
i did this install abt 2 years ago. When I got to the AUX cord nicely ran to the arm rest, coiled and zipped tied underneath the whole time... i started crying. WHY YOU NO PUT AUX BUTTON SUBARU!?
love this :P funny and informative hehe i like these additions you're making to this channel Chris keep it up :D
It’d be nice if they showed how to separate the radio from the HVAC controls because I probably won’t get what they got unless I absolutely have too.
Has anyone bought this kit recently from avojdm or another place? I want to put a double din in my car but the site looks sketchy and it's been a while since this vid was posted.
I just bought window visors from AVO last week and they got here in a week btw
Wot in Installation
