Duuuude...hours of searching, reading forums, back and forth emails with crutchfield and this video contained more answers than anything else I've found. Even the same color as mine. Thanks for taking the time to make this.

Another GREAT install fellas. When I purchased my 06 Pilot EXL which I still have, I didn’t even wait two weeks to take it to a local stereo shop. I had a Eclipse AVN5500 head unit installed along with my Alpine Type R components and coaxial powered by a four channel and two channel bridge for sub. Phoenix Gold Tantrum amps and 12” kicker L5 sub. The amps were installed in the rear head rest compartment which worked out great and out of view. I also did the Alpine Overhead RES for the kids. BTW, I kept the steering wheel controls but they seem to not respond as when new. I might have to replace the PAC unit. This is a great vehicle that now has 226k miles of fun driving.

I got my steering wheel controls back. Best decision ever! I also installed my backup camera and stereo by myself. It takes patience and reading the institutions carefully.

Glad you guys figured out a workaround for the stock sub... Crutchfield also says you lose the it but they don't tell you all you have to do is add a small aftermarket amp to power the stock sub... if that guy had gone through Crutchfield, he'd have lost his factory sub, but you guys did a workaround :)

Wish you fellas were up here in Virginia. I have a 06 Honda Pilot with Navigation and the install you showed in this video is 'exactly', what I'd love to do.

Last one I did the driver side lower trim panel was a pain just like it looked on your install. Very interesting

Great video. I have a 2007 Pilot. Do you or will you have any videos of additional work, upgrades to his Pilot?

Great installation guys

Although it’s been 4 years since you made this it’s still relevant to many including myself. It’s time to upgrade the radio on my ‘04 Pilot. I don’t want to loose/replace the factory sub. You addressed this issue with the alpine amp. My question is, that particular Amp isn’t made anymore so has anything come out that’s about the same? Or a head unit that can “plug into” the factory sub? Something simple like that Alpine or even simpler. I don’t need to shake and rattle the car. Thanks for any comments or suggestion from you or your subscribers!

I was hoping that you would show how you wired the Alpine amp powering the sub. But I love your show anyway. Regards.

Nice Clean Work!

Exactly what i needed, big thanks

And another fun & wonderful day in the Florida heat!🤣✌

What are the options for an 04 with navigation if you want the nav screen removed to place new head unit in it's place?

What installers do you know who will do a software update and a Bluetooth update...….. None in Memphis. I wish they were a little closer I would have all my work done by them. Thanks for the awesome videos.

Can you show how to keep the factory steering wheel control work. The unit I installed has built in steering control circuit.

I'm wondering what path you guys took routing the backup camera wires and if that kick panel location was indeed where you found the backup switch wite to activate the cam. Also what about GPS antenna, is that internal on the new head unit? Or does it not have GPS?

Hell yea this gives me a setup idea on what speakers I want to put in my 13 Ridgeline cause I have no idea lol thanks dean tell Nando órale

Are there any options to replace 2014 Honda Pilot Head unit? I was told no since there isn’t a dash kit available for 2014 EX-L pilot

Can you guys touch on a little more on the brake bypass and the avh-4400nex you guys mentioned it in a saturday show. Something about the GPS and vss wire? Is anything loss by hooking it up and not those wires? If I do the bypass should I leave GPS and vss disconnected?

I would like to see you do a 2016 exl pilot install.

Is it possible to install a new Pioneer double din into a 2008 Pilot EX-L with DVD player and still retain all features (Rear seat DVD player drop down, steering wheel controls, and at some point upgrade the speakers and subwoofer?)

Wtf my names Fernando and I really thought you were talking to me lmao. 😂

Do you know of a way to retain the factory RES when installing apple play double din?

I thought you would put the link for the items you used and where to get them. But it was a nice show

Does that Honda pilot still have the dual charge mode? I know that the voltage of the car would read 14V at idle or park, but what does it read when you are driving in street speed of 25 mph? Does it drop down to 12.6V then picks up to 14V when going on freeway speeds of 50 mph and up?

Would i be able to use the same kit for a 2006 EXL with the rear entertainment system ? And would the install process also be the same ? Thank you in advance for any helping information.

just showed this to the better half since she has the same vehicle and now wants the same thing, keeping steering controls and upgrading the subwoofer but keeping the factory location.. looks like a trip to clearwater is in the really near future.. what will be the price on this setup mentioned

I have a 05 honda pilot after changing factory radio out the instrument cluster under radio like led a.c. read out and button lights don't work if I disconnect the after market radio the lights come on can any one help

How did you wire factory sub?

hey guys ive got a question, great video. thanks. Ive got the same car, i want to refresh a bit but im not interested in the back up cam. I DO want bluetooth connectivity, keep steering wheel function, & power the sub. can you recommend some things that I could do that checks all those boxes? thanks in advance.

.How long was the installation and how much is the charge??

Wow I'm trying to put a android on in my and I'm totally co fused sk what Was done with the regular novation plug it was left there? And my stero only have one plug. Mines wasn't playing no audio or nun when I plugged mines in

Question for you two, I have a 2015 Dodge Charger SE with the 5 inch display. What I would like to know is if I can replace the factory touch screen (and surrounding buttons) with an aftermarket Kenwood head unit? I've spoken to a few shops in my area and they have all told me that it can't be done at all, yet when I spoke with a tech at Idatalink, they said that I can use the Maestro RR with the head unit I want and it will keep all of the features that the factory head unit controls (such as the temperature controls, power steering sensitivity, and multiple other things like the DRLs). Which is correct?

My GF has a 2008 Honda Pilot, I’m thinking of replacing the stock head unit with a pioneer. What steering wheel control device would you recommend for this install?

Dean I got a dodge 2500 4x4 crew cab 2015 with u connect and 5 in screen need to retain all the features the radio does like mileage air pressure gas full all that cool stuff what harness do you recommend pac or the maestro I've put in a lot of pac audio stuff but maestro this will be my first no factory amp and what kit best or metra

What type of wire do you guys use to extend the wires ?

Which tag cam did they use?

You guys do great work. I have a question. This may be a challenge to answer. I just recently purchased a 2018 Honda Accord Sport 1.5 Turbo edition. I test drove the 2.0 version which is great and comes with XMradio and a 3.5mm AUX jack. This was a teaser because come to find out the 1.5 version doesn't come with either. I love XM and I opted to buy an xm radio that i installed via FM modulator. The signal sucks and reminds me of the early 90's and 00's when cars offered nothing but Tape. So my question is can I add a 2.5mm aux jack? Even if I have to pull the dash solder some wires into the right input wires of some sort??

Hey guys! What's your opinion on big companies such as best buy that perform installs such as theese. Is the quality they provide comparable to professionals such as you guys?

Hey i hVe a 2009 honda pilot touring and want to do the same thing what kind of stores does this thing, i asked coulle stores they told me that , if they install the navigation, ill loose my audio in the car!

What Year is this Pilot?

What back up camera was used???

I need help . I have a 2005 pilot and im about to change my radio. I dont care about steering wheel controls and i dont have a backup camera. Can anyone tell me what all i will need to get this done? I do want to keep my stock sub working too. Thanks for the help

Does the new stereo hook up to the connections of the old stereo.? Did you only extend the Harness so it can reach the top radio? Are the wires the same colors?

Where are you guys located? Have you ever done this upgrade on a second gen Honda Pilot?

Does the metra 99-7819 will fit 05 pilot

Great work, D&F! Can you tell me what color the factory subwoofer leads are, or do you have a master pin/wire diagram for the harness? I may be doing some work on my GF's 2008 Pilot in the future. Thanks -- love the vids!

What kind of new Stereo? Does the new stereo connectors fit the old stereos connectors:?

Could you send me the links to all this stuff the radio, kit, amp and steering wheel controls?? My 03 Pilot needs a new radio

List of parts please thanks

Good afternoon my sister n law, just purchases a 30.00, stereo from walmart for her 2005 honda pilot. After hooking everything up, when she drives the car you can hear the motor whining through the speakers. Can you give me some advice on how to fix it.

What kind of stereo are you updating

I know this is an old video, but any chance we can get the model number for that metra kit? I can’t find it anywhere

could you plug rca's in the sub output and cut the other end and wire it to the amp ?

good afternoon so, i dont know how you tag people in KZfaq but I hope someone sees this messege. WHERE do you buy your stuff FROM amazon does not have that METRA 99-7819 nor do they have the ALPINE anyone can provide the links ?? anyone has a longer video on how to get the ALPINE thing to power the SUB thanks in advance

You didnt show how to wire the Harness to the new radio!

Just curious why you put ferrite beads on the subwoofer cable.

DandF, is there a video on a 2nd gen Pilot? I'm pulling my hair out with my 2011 LX!

I got a new vehicle and stereo too. Cost me an arm and a leg. Thats why I limp and eat with one hand.

What is the back up camera make and model?

Anybody? 2018 Chevy Silverado 1500 non Bose..what's the best place to find remote wire turn on

Why do you cover the steering wheel and shifter?

Is this a 1st Gen Pilot?

Hello my friend how are you I need your help

Can I have your direct line or email

Um steering wheel control would have been like $60 in parts.... Well I was broke too at one point in my life. Sometimes when ypu dont make a great income ypu have to make choices I guess

OMG 🥱

It's only 3 wires to keep steering wheel controls and you won't have to waste $75 on that useless unneeded steering wheel control harness!!!!!
