Hey James, enjoying your videos. Im from Wellington. I have a 2006 Legacy and I'm keen to rip out the factory nav and put a mechless double din in there, my question is there are way to still utilize the CD stacker rather than having it dead? Like using a AUX adapter? I have seen some that are designed for the macintosh system.

I have a 2002 Subaru Legacy B4 (Japan). It has a navigation+HVAC head unit and a Aftermarket Kenwood head unit below it installed (previous owner). The nav unit does not turn on but the aftermarket unit works. Was wondering if they just pulled the wiring harness from the nav unit and put it into the new one? If so how do I fix it so both units will turn on/work?

Hi does anyone know i installed one in the top, but when putting it back together i lost the back illumination on the factory radio and climate control so the words and knobs dont light up red anymore. I don't think its the fuse since it still lights up red around my side mirror controls. Thanks i have a 2005 Subaru Outback Limited. So the screens light up with temperature and radio station, but the illumination is gone. Does anyone have a wiring schematic for aftermarket to climate control. Not sure which wire would be related to the red back illumination.

Hey James, I have the flap dash as well. Was wondering if there is any way around that... Possibly hooking up an amp to the factory stereo? And how I would go about doing that.
@caraudioetc7 жыл бұрын
To connect an amp to a factory stereo, you need to make sure your amplifier has some thing called "High Level Input" or "Speaker Level Input". A lot of people say you can use any amp with a high to low level convertor, but personally I don't like these because they take up space and often create noise because they're one of those product that no-one really makes a high quality version of. As far as fitting stereos in the dash goes, yeah you really need the one with the din hole and brackets or a large opening for a shallow double din stereo. Hope this helps!

@caraudioetc7 жыл бұрын
When you have this fitting kit you can put in any single din stere. Or if you have the kit with the large hole in it to accomodate a screen, with some custom mounting you can fit the following double din stereos (that i have found); parrot asteroid smart, alpine ilx-007E, sony xav-ax100, alpine cde-w265ebt/cde-w296ebt stereo needs modding). The reason these stereos fit is because they are either shallow chassis from having no cd player, or they only have a single din chassis at the top half and nothing in the bottom. hope this helps.
