Good to see someone finally brought out a decent fascia for the double din stereos.

Yeah,I had come to term with the fact my stereo in my xr6t was always going to be shit.now it doesnt have to be that way,my life has improved somewhat

Bro you been missing out for years…. One word- Kayhan. F putting a airpro and then paying for a double din. My Kayhan is the best thing I did to my BF besides the built diff and axles.

@larzblast Жыл бұрын

@@christianwuchatsch9510 Depends on the objective. Even the Aerpro kit is a bit expensive for what it is. For a shitbox, like my wagon, I'll stick with the single DIN solution. Fascia and cabling ends up costing about $100 plus whatever single-DIN unit you buy. I don't need to see my phone messages while I'm driving. Safer that way.

I have a BA XR8. Almost no options were ticked by the original buyer when new. It has the basic ICC like the one in the video, no gauge pod, no Fairmont clock, not even the stripes along the doors. It does have the phone presenter: probably the only option. I would like to try the gauge pod for voltmeter and oil pressure gauge.

Subscribed the second you said you hate volume up/down buttons. Speaking my language mate! Volume knobs are hard to come by on a decent double DIN these days. Even worse is the touchscreen volume controls.. Good luck hitting that without taking your eyes off the road for 30 seconds.

Funny enough that i found this video as i was looking today for prices on the aftermarket kayhan icc and there was another brand as well.

I had a FG MK2 XR6 from new for 10 years. It had the updated colour system with Bluetooth. But it incorporated a Ford "Typical For The Model" feature of disconnecting the Bluetooth connection when you started the motor. Every single time. It also had no reversing camera, which made reverse parking a mystery every time too. And like yours the A/C was integrated into the touch screen. I remember the car stereo shop telling me a solution was coming, which I reckoned was as likely to see in my lifetime as a return of Hayley's Comet or anthropogenic global warming proof. I ended up trading it in for a new Stinger GT last year. A red one. Best decision ever.

@@prolosertheatomistic8101 same mate, love my V8s and straight sixes. Rather a turbo 4 pot than a V6. The Stinger is cool as fuck but, probably one of the best options if you were looking for a SS, XR8 or XR6T and don't want a Mustang.

@@TheTeeroy32 Yeah would rather a turbo 4 myself too. V6's can be good but there's something so cool about the smooth torque of an I6 or V8. Love my XR6T, I feel like going to any other engine bar a LS, RB, or 2JZ will be a huge step down.

As an owner of a Toyota Soarer i can really relate to this, getting a single din head unit in and working is pretty easy, double din on the other hand is a whole other story, I'd have to get a custom built loom from nz, an ac unit imported from usa, and god knows what other changes or parts I'd need, so I went with single din and all I really miss out on is a reversing cam but I just put a monitor inside my sun visor

@djhappyemo 2 жыл бұрын

I can also relate to the wiring stuff, my first car almost got burned down by my horrible first attempt at wiring, my soarer definitely shows how much I've improved and learned, currently she's got 3 amps, 2 subs, 2 tweeters, 2 6 by 9s, a bass enhancer and 2 4 inch speakers (and not a single blown fuse or anything fried or killed yet) and my god it's good, free back massages when I knock off from work lol

Planning on adding this to my 2006 TX Territory, for someone who has only had experience changing headlights, fuses and tyres. Do you think I'd be able to do this? Taking off the panels and the stereo seems easy, but everything past that loses me quite quick. On-top of that, how would you go about installing a reversing camera as well? I know that you can use this kit with the existing reverse camera, but would the same process apply to adding a new one?
