John , I’m just starting my 1968 frame off. My first one. Your channel has been a lot of help. Really enjoy it. One question I have is a personal one , I need to get a pair of prescription glasses that I can wear while working on car. I really like yours. Just wondering if those were prescription or just a pair you wear while working on car. They look good regardless ! Keep the videos coming. I’m subscribed

I have several glasses. If you’re referring to my black ones, they are Maui Jim sunglasses that I had my optometrist put prescription lenses in. They are bifocal also. I generally don’t wear them working on the car because they cost me about $700. I try to wear my old pair when I’m wrenching.

John. When you replaced the head unit, did the sound upgrade? I have heard mixed things about the speakers. Some say a good head unit enhances the sound quality and volume. Any feedback on that?

@C3Mods 3 жыл бұрын

Actually, I never really spent anytime in the car since the upgrade because it’s my son’s car and he went back to LA where he lives. So, I don’t really have an answer. I can check with him and see what he says, but he usually has the exhaust wide open and the radio off most of the time anyway! LOL.

When you plug in your phone to the charger in the center console it connects to Apple CarPlay?

@C3Mods 3 жыл бұрын

No, the phone will connect automatically via Bluetooth. The center console we made incorporates Apple’s new MagCharger, it’s new wireless charging system. Putting the phone on it will charge the phone, that’s all. But now we can do it without cords all over the interior space. And since the phone is connected to the head unit via Bluetooth when he gets any notifications it will show on the radio screen. I hope I explained that well.

When you installled the front camera were you able to set it so that it comes on at a certain speed, like 5 mph to 0?

Where did you connect the back up camera ground and red wire?

@C3Mods 2 жыл бұрын

I don’t recall off hand, it’s been a while. But the camera harness plugs into the back of the head unit and the camera plugs into that. I’m not sure if it’s powered by the head unit harness or if I had to use separate power and ground. You can look up the installation instructions on the KENWOOD website and see what it says.

Did you head unit fit perfectly into the OEM radio bezel? Or did it require an after market bracket to fit in the dash? Thanks in advance!

@C3Mods 8 ай бұрын

We ordered the kit for the car and it’s 2 plastic L brackets that screw to both sides of the head unit and use the factory mounting holes.

Did you have to splice into the reverse light with the kenwood camera you installed

I believe it was already part of the factory C6 harness, but I had to on many other vehicles.
