i felt like i was watching a movie, like ironman or something, great video, great commentating, excellent choice of music, really good editing, not much to say, i can't wait until i get a corvette and start doing this.
Throwing in “probably a bear” to the electrical list of needed items is great 😂👏🏻
I know a lot of ppl hate on China/Chinese products but the fact is that china makes the majority of what we have and use here i the US. Like anywhere there are companies that thrive off of cheap manufacturing but there are plenty of Chinese companies that produce quality products even if we aren't familiar with the brands. I know this video is a few years old but Joying a few other companies have come quite a ways in the android head unit market.
That wiring portion was a life saver for an install im doing right now! I Iove your videos especially the one where you drove around to do the exhaust clip. Keep it up!
In today’s lack of humor society, I rarely subscribe to a lot of channels due to people can’t joke around about the current effd up things going on. The COVID comment made me laugh... I also like your videos, so subbed!
Thanks man!
Nice video! Would have done the same but I'm a bit camera shy (BTW, I'm Ltemple) Glad it worked out for you.
What's up man!! Thanks again for sharing that post!! Gave me an opportunity to make awesome content. Will probably add a volume knob in the near future as that seems to be the only annoying thing so far. But overall nice little setup. 🤙👍
What I really like is the way you framed the bezel in front of the unit. Looks so much more clean and factory . I was originally going with a flip out Pioneer , but now maybe not . Good vid, thanks.
Thanks man
Thinking about giving my flip out pioneer to my gf for her car and trying this out. If I do, would the wiring harnesses be very different? Or are most wires universal except for a few? I’m assuming each harness is fairly different if even the JOYING radios varied by wire color like you said in the video.
Pretty cool. I still have the factory head unit. It sure could use something like this
Thanks you boost my confidence in this installation
Wow…..just wow….thank you for this.
This could revolutionize c5 double din stuff, as in completely replace it. I went with a real double DIN and the metra bezel, you can totally tell its aftermarket. This is quite interesting!
The double-din bezels are so cheap & plentiful nowadays that it's a completely viable & cost-effective option to anyone who wants one now. I need my Alpine INE-S920HD in my Vette.
Thanks excellent guide have read about this unit on forums your guide makes it look pretty reasonable to do. Thanks
No problem. 👍🤙
Did they just stop making this head unit?? The link in the description says the item is not available.
Who makes that unit?
Just search Amazon for another brand.
@@thefrostyvette876 well what are the specs to look for?
Nice job. I keep going back and forth on keeping the stock look vs a new flat screen radio. I like this because I won't have to cut out brackets, reposition the A/C head unit and get a new dash/bezel. Thanks for the info.
Oh one thing I should have mentioned!!! Once you have everything hooked up (assuming you are using this head unit) you MUST turn on the amp via sound settings on the main menu. You will get 95% treble until you do that!
That's awesome... the default voice is a Russian chick... 🤣🤣
I liked yours so much that I ultimately chose the Joying myself, and had it installed. Could you be a little more detailed about how you turned on the amp. Thanks.
Do I have to disconnect the cd changer, or will it work with this unit? Thanks
I CANNOT FIND THE SETTING TO TURN IT ON 😫😫
Just ordered mine ! Awesome content brother!
Great video! Complete and thorough, with good editing for smooth viewing. Inspired me to install the same setup. I know its a year later but hopefully you can answer a quick question. The illumination/dimmer wire.... I hooked it up to the same circuit on the hvac unit like you did. But it doesn't seem to work right. When I turn on the headlights it seems to get a little brighter, and the knob left of the steering wheel doesn't really do anything to the head unit illum. The hvac illum is fine.
Great video man! I'm thinking about upgrading the radio and this might be my next move. Would you do it again?
Just finished and it all worked great ! For me the Blue-White wire for powering the amp was not connected in the opposite white plug. The blue wire ( antenna power ) left over must be powered with the orangeblack ( fused JoYing ) wire to activate the amp. Added the Joying remote and made it fit in the cup holder. Thanks for making the great video !
I'm totally confused. I bought ALL of the same harnesses and radio, etc. He recorded himself soldering the solid blue wire to the short wire that has the "BRAKE" flag on it, but wrote to solder the solid blue to the orange/black wire WHICH I DON'T HAVE. Can you clear this up for me please?
@@manthis22 the orange-black is the wire with the glas fused out of theJoYing. That's the amp out wire to acitivate the Amplifier. In my white connector there is a blue-white wire but @ the other plug there was no wire. I find out that I need to use the bleu wire instead. when I powered that onde the Amplifier will work.
Just back from a roadtrip. System is working fine. Exept it is sometimes hard to reconnect to Carplay. I saw that JoYing has released firmware Android 10.0 1280X480 Old UI 2023.5.15 looks like it solves the carlink issues. my Joying was delivered with firmware 2021-12-27.
Thanks for this video! Definitely doing this in the spring. Is there any way you can update the joying link in the description? It no longer works and I am trying to find this unit. Thanks!
10/10 Intro -Mark
Great video. Looks like a great option for a C5
Thanks man! So far so good. I'll definitely do a couple month update.
I see that Tool Fear Inoculum on the player. #46&2
Hi, thanks for your video, it's helpful. I wanted to find the same radio you installed, I clicked on the link but it seems that Joying is no longer selling that model only 1 & 2 din available. Any other alternative? Thanks!
I did search too but I think it’s the 1 din 8.8” that model. Take another look . Its around $360 ish
@@LuxuryRumble Thank you! I’ll take another look. 👍🏽
This was a good install video! I was wondering if there was a 1.5 din option to keep from getting a new bezel
AWESOME upload! Thoroughly enjoyed it! Thumbs up from me as usual... Stay safe... Rico
Just got my radio today, hoping to do the install this weekend.
Did u get the same unit from the video?
@@ggray1213 he got the model that ends in -1, I have -2.
Nice work dude.
Thanks man 👍
I found the website. I see your comment regarding Apple also. Is there a model number for this unit? I don't see the 1.5 din unit. They specify 1 din and 2 din. Please advise.
Dope bro I'm thinking of upgrading the Audi's system
I like this dude👍🏾
Sorry for the second comment. But I’m guessing the Pak one wiring adapter that we must use for the Bose system is sold separately? Does not come with the head unit.
very nice man, im gonna have too look into this.
Thanks dude
I was just pondering if I should consider a unit similar to this if I should invest the money in a tablet or a double din oh, but it's interesting you mention something about 20-plus years old archaic? Then it dawned on me with hearing about some of the issues people are having with units even Pioneers that last 2 years? But that archaic piece that's 20 plus years old in my C5 still works great? With the Bose amplifiers and Bose speakers one of the best sounding stock systems installed in a vehicle actually, even the CD player still works great although the CD changer also works when you are parked at a park or something or you just want some tunes in your shop you turn on this bode system and it is plenty
good? And reliable..., when I go drive my convertible 6MT, millennial yellow C5... it's really about the vehicle being able to go 165 miles per hour, and Corner better than anything in this generation hell this is the car that won LeMans and dominated for several years many years after... so that poses one question which stock car on this entire planet could do 165 plus win LeMans handle in such fashion in yet pose have a incredible sound system that actually lasted 20 plus years and is still going strong? Anybody?
put some VH on.. A little “dancing in the street“
On CD.. it's impossible to duplicate that sound...
I don't know I may consider a tablet mount with a Bluetooth just to have the navigation and some of the apps rolling at the same time integrated with the original head unit.. which still works awesome.. even after two decades.
My c5 bass is awesome from factory
Nice video
Keep up the baller content 😎
Great video! Thanks for taking the time and making this installation doable for me! I watched another video where the guy installed a relay and a fuse, did you do that or is that not necessary?
One question did you connect the face to the unit or is the face separate and just sandwiched between the trim? Looks like there would be more room if I remove the tabs on back of screen and connection point to the unit? Video was great super easy with your directions!
The face is connected 👍👍. I used some think double sided tape between the back of the screen and the metal frame of the console. Probably was not necessary as it was sandwiched in there very tight! Crazy how perfect it fit.
Where do you live I would like to have you install the same unit in my Corvette
This looks like a must have upgrade, would make my 04 C5 more like my 2019 F150 Platinum, wonder if there is a car audio business around here to pay to have this installed
Great content!!
Thanks man!
Hello is the vet pac 1 harness necesary to install the Joying 8.8 on my 2004 C5 Corvette
How do you like the back-up camera clarity? Is the viewing at nighttime in reverse acceptable? Great job at clean-ness of detail for installation. I didn’t catch the price of stereo installed. Thank -You I own a 2004 Vette and would like to make this modification.👍
Maybe i missed it, but do you have the model # for the 1.5 din? I've been looking for something exactly like that for my Vette. Video you made is great. Thank you.
I love your video but man you gotta get some light bro you might as well I've used the candle lol
I like your background pic bro!!
Hi, what is the name of the manufacturer or did you find it on Amazon? thanx and great informative vid!!!
Joying is the manufacturer. 8.8" 1.5 din
Hey, when you found your auxiliary power on that under the dash passenger foot well. Was it not connected to a common plug? I’m in the middle of my install.
Thanks
I got no signal on my backup camera.. is there anything that you have done that you may have left out of the video? Thanks for the video
Disregard this comment.. I got it fixed and completed the installation.. new problem.. battery seems to be drained and now won’t start 😭 have you had similar issues?
Yeah Corvettes drain battery power quickly when doors are open etc for a long time. Probably just need a jump.
VetOnVettes757 yep that was it lol thanks again!
Somebody please strangle the guy who came up with the "unboxing video". Seriously, I already know how to take stuff outta boxes. What I'm NOT clear on is a simple solution to replacing the obsolete CD format with either a bluetooth or preferably an auxiliary input without killing my sound by throwing the Bose crossovers out of whack. Anybody?? Otherwise, great video though. LOL
Haha. 🤙👍. They sell splice in iphone and droid adapters for the stock unit. It's pretty involved though. 😬😬
Hi, I have tried the link for the head unit and it "can't be found". Would you be able.to list the model and screen size? Joying doesn't list a 1.5 on thier website, might have to go the ebay route, and they are all listed as per screen size. Please help. Need to get this done. Great job on the info for install.
What brand is the stereo?
'Joying' is the brand
I never heard the name and model of the unit your installing so please give me the info , Thanks Murf
I was able to get my amps working for a bit, but the next time I turned the car on they completely stopped. I also noticed how quick this unit drains the battery. Any suggestions?
Did you ever solve this issue ?
Great job on the video... what's the PAC adapter model number? Don't see it in the "items needed list". Mine is an '04 Z06, if that makes a difference. Thanks!
If you just Google Vet-pac1-roem it will be the first one that populates.
@@VetOnVettes Thank-you!
never got the amps in the door speakers to work.... sounds like crap without them ... thinking about doing a full audio build without connecting to GM`s / bose at all..
I remember when I put this in my amp didn't want to turn on. I really had to solder the hell out of the amp trigger wire to get a solid connection. Even now there is a 3 second delay for the amp to turn on. Recheck the blue/ white wire to the orange one I think? Need to watch the video again myself.
I think they stopped selling the 1.5 head unit. Can you tell me what size LCD screen came in that 1.5 unit. I will have to choose a different unit with same screen size as 1.5.
Yeah the link he posted is dead and I cannot find it either. dammit.
Question: when you order on the joying website, did u order all the options (obd, tpms, etc...)?
Nope. Just ordered it as plain as it could come. I added my own backup camera and Antenna adapter. 🤙👍
Hi, the links are broken, do you have some other links? 😢
Where is the ordering information for the vette wiring “pack” you speak off to work with the stock bose speakers? Part number or link please.
What wire are you tying into on the passenger side floor?
As the link for the Joying unit is no longer working, would you confirm if the unit is the one with 8.8" screen? That one is widely available on ebay and seems to be just the same. Thanks!
@@believe2806 Yes it is the 8.8 inch. I just purchased it. Nice unit.
@@believe2806 Check this out. You might need it if you get that unit: ruclips.net/video/da6NzBniVDg/видео.html
The link for the head unit doesn't appear to work.
I'm hoping it wasn't discontinued (maybe the link changed?).
What was the model number of the head unit you installed? The closest I see on the website to what you ordered was a model "DP-3021B".
Please let us know. Thank you.
Do you think this will be a good replacement for the f-bodies?
I got lossed on the “Legend has it” 3 wires under the passenger foot well. What was the red wire you soldered to the yellow? And where did you connect the reverse wire so it knows you’re in reverse??
Same man. You need to find a big fat orange wire under the passenger footwell in the cluster of wires. There’s a fat red and pink one so make sure it is orange!! Then you can tap the red wire from the stereo harness to the orange wire. It’s your vehicle accessory wire, it triggers on the radio
Is this the same size as the joying 8.8 ? Looks the same size , but what’s the better product ?
It's no longer available on the site.
Also, the information you lead us to for the wiring pac says ”For 1997 - 2002 Chevrolet corvette vehicles
Factory Bose EQ cannot be retained, optional tweeters are needed to maintain high frequencies” so this DOES NOT retain the original bose system. And note above this is for 1997-2002? C5 years run and include 2003? So this is not for 2003? Seems like a great product but the information is sketchy? I do appreciate your time in posting but, unclear information is frustrating.
Hey man. The pac vet1 will work with the 03-04 as well. I think it was developed in 2002 and they never updated the description. They never changed the Bose system in the C5 so the tweeters are not affected. Hope this helps bud. 👍🤙
Don’t take this the wrong way. I came across this Video on Oct 31,2020 yesterday. Watched the complete Video. I don’t care for this set up. I just upgraded my ‘99 C5 Coupe this past May of 2020. I had gathered up everything I needed for the install during the Spring/Summer of 2019. I went with the Metra Replacement Cluster, a New Kenwood DMX7705s Double Din Receiver w/CarPlay and a Axxess Interface. If you would of used the Axxess Interface you wouldn’t of needed to run a wire into your passenger footwell. Everything you needed came from wires already present behind the stock radio wire harness. I did a lot of research on the product before I started the job. The hardest work to do for me was to drill out the rivets holding the 2 aluminum shelf’s in place behind the Cluster. Some take a Sawzaw to cut them out I decided to not destroy mine so that if someone down the road wanted to put it back to factory stock they could. I believe it was the better way to go with a project like this.
I wrote the above post last year and I stand by it. That being said did anyone find out if they are still making this ATOTO Radio or one similar to it. I may need one to install in a late 80's SS Monte Carlo. There is no way to fit a 7" Double Din in the Monte Carlo and make it look right. I need close to another inch of room top to bottom but this Radio above I think can be made to fit so all not a waste for me checking out this video last year. It stuck in the back of my mind. Hoping I can find a unit similar to it with CarPlay also if that is possible with this brand.
@@ffas23 just look up joying 8.8. They still make it.
So all wiring harnesses are included with the unit?
Just installed the same unit on my 04. How did you get the USB tethering to work? Everything else is working great. Just can't figure out the tethering. Any help would be appreciated.
Can you send or upload a new link for that radio ? I can't find it. Thank
What did you do with your old head unit? Any interest in selling it?
Absolutely. Make an offer.
Any input on the Alpine iLX-407Shallow Chassis?
Will be going into an 03 Z06
How did you get the main unit fixed? was everything clamped with the panel?
I don’t understand, please clarify. You mentioned wiring the blue to the blue and white yet you have a pop-up screen saying you wire it to the orange/Black wire. But yet in your video you wired it wrong to the blue and white? And yet you stayed during the video that it was an update to wire it to the black and white. Doesn’t make much sense for you to show us wearing it wrong while saying the update you’re wiring to the different blue and white yet you still wear yours to the blue and white? Not trying to criticize I’m just trying to get a clarification.
Do you have a link of the actual unit installed? I see the 8.8 on there website?
Thanks
How did you mount the single din sleeve in the double din opening
any quality issues, quirks, glitches with the headunit?
Can you provide a link for the head unit? Is it available with Apple Car Play?
Did the head unit not come with an illumination wire ?
It did. I believe it's yellow?
@@VetOnVettes would it be possible to remove the portion of the pac-1 that won't be used , like unplug it to same space ?
how did you moount the unit into the dash?
looks like the radio is not coming up. Do you know the sku # for the 1.5 din?
Dónde lo puedo conseguir?
Cool video! Thanks. Unfortunately, the H/U link is 404, and Joying says they don't make a 1.5 DIN unit. Any ideas? Thanks!
Its not a 1.5. Its a single din with a larger screen
there are 4 different models on the joying website. which one did you order ?
Are you able to run GM radio while using Apple car play ?
Do you have a link to the radio as the one listed doesn't work
Is there a harness I could use besides the pac? I’m replacing the factory speakers and adding a 4 channel amp.
Do you have an update for the H/U link as it does not go to a product any longer?
What size radio is it, since the one linked isn't available. thanks
The link for the head unit no longer works. Can you update it or provide the model number?
cant get this head unit anymore??? :(
Does the unit support cd changer?
Great video tutorial. My opinion is these radios are crap!!!..
I was hesitant about the joying being a Chinese product. Really had no idea how it would perform. Over a year so far so good. Not campaigning for the brand, but it's still truckin.
The link for joying radio don't work
whats the link for the head unit
Are you able to turn the beeping off? Can it use spotify and android auto?
Yes it is in the menu to switch off the beep.
