    I was the exact same with the camera although I was installing a different head unit onto a different car but the red wire on the camera goes to the other red wire on the longer bit then that goes up behind the head unit and connects up then the black wire then goes to reverse light wires and put the camera somewhere on the back bumper hope that helps out with it

    Hey! Just have the same issue that the device is not turning on. Measured the voltage on the fuse in the back which was 13V. Was fixed your issue to turn the device on?

      Hi, mine was because the BUS was not connected properly. Have you made sure that is connected?

    Nice fit mate, I added the same one to my Audi and found that the bass when playing music is non existent! I wasn’t sure if it’s because it’s a cheap unit or if I messed up the installation?
    How did you find it on yours?

    • @WillBrownCars
      @WillBrownCars  7 месяцев назад

      The audio quality is a little less, the bass is there but I did find one of the audio connectors was lose which made the bass disappear. I wrapped in electrical tape to fix the issue. If you want more base, there is a connector for a sub on mine which could be installed

      If you plug the sun wire to one of the red ones it turns the built in subs on so it doesn’t support all speakers , unfortunately on my car it only plays the rear speakers

      Haven’t had my car much as the engines gone! However, for the period I was using it I thought it was great. Although, I will say has its pros and cons. For me the pros outweighs the cons.

  • @mightymulatto3000
    @mightymulatto3000 6 месяцев назад +1

    It will pop out due to heat compromising the plastic clips, road vibration and the possible lack of modification.
    The bottom clips aren't really meant hold but to "sit" on a flat surface that you have to shave away to get access to while the top clips are meant to hold the radio from moving forward. It's all around a poor design as you said.

      @WillBrownCars does yours remain on even with the key removed?

    • @IronGiant007
      @IronGiant007 6 месяцев назад +1

      Yes, the steering buttons all work. If you switch the lights on/off the lights on the side goes on and off... But when you remove the key, the radio remains on.
      It does seem that if you power it off and it remains off for some time and is turned on again, it does start up as if it was completely off (Starting Android...)
