Excellent taste in music, sir! I watched this as a refresher since it's been a few years since I installed a head unit on a 3rd gen. I was going to go with something higher end, but this is pretty much the only head unit under $500 that has a physical volume knob.

There is a factory amp that’s no longer used once you put the new stereo in. The plugs were plugged into the amp. I left the amp in place incase I wanted to put the factory unit back in if I ever get rid of the car.

HI, I just bought this radio today. After installation on my Nissan Navara D40, sound is perfect. Only problem is bluetooth hands free issue. When call on handsfree option, the sounds is so low that I can't hear anything and the mic is not that good either as feedback from other side. Do you have same issue? Or my unit could be faulty?
@PoorMansParadise3 жыл бұрын
My hands free works great, I use it everyday . There are two volumes to adjust.. While your on the phone call make sure the volume on your phone is turned up, once that’s turned all the way up then you can adjust the volume with the knob on the radio. 2). For your feed back issue make sure your mic isn’t too close to a speaker I have my mic mounted on the sun visor . Good luck I hope you get it figured out!

@PoorMansParadise3 жыл бұрын
The amp is abandoned so you could remove it if you want. The “reverse in” is for a backup camera. If you have a backup camera the wire Needs to be hooked to the reverse gear selector wire harness someplace. I don’t have a camera so I didn’t hook it up. Parking brake wire can just be tied into the switch for the parking brake or if you want to cheat you could tie it into ground . It may change when some functions are available so make sure to test it before you put everything back together .
