You are the man!! Huge thanks to you. Just bought a used Nissan Altima. Love this car, but I didn’t know the radio would reset every 10 minutes until after I bought it. I took it to two Nissan dealers and one was going to charge me $3k and the other one $2k to replace it. Why the big difference? 🤷🏻‍♂️ But, thanks to your video I bought a refurbished replacement radio for $399 and the tools you linked in your video for $7.99. I replaced it for $407 in under 10 minutes. That’s a huge savings. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

I just bought a 2020 Sentra sv same as the Altima, but I’m eventually going to put a 10 or 12 cause I like a bit more bass/middle/treble so now I’ll know how to remove this. Thanks my guy keep it up 💪🏼

I have recently acquired a 2021 2.5L AWD Altima model. Have you considered the possibility of replacing your existing headlights and taillights with the LED sequential versions? Additionally, what is your perspective on modifying the factory Head unit to an Android head unit from a brand such as Teana or EKIY? Based on every video I've watched, you appear to be the most likely individual to possess knowledge regarding this subject... Any response would be greatly appreciated...Your NEW Subscriber!

@TheRealCountryBoyModz 5 ай бұрын

Appreciate the support to the channel and as far as changing out the headlights… I am not going to change them right now because I already have the signature led headlights from Nissan. It’s a better deal for the S model Altimas to get that luxury look. You can also buy lasfit led headlight bulbs to place in the S model for a cheaper brighter option. I have put the thought into getting the aftermarket sequential lights but I do like the factory look with the Lasfit LEDs in the tailights. As far as the factory head unit I have found some aftermarket’s like you mentioned that will give you a 10 inch screen or more but if you’re only buying for the size and to watch movies on it they have this box out that’s like 300 bucks that allows you to play movies and other stuff on the screen. Another option if you wanted to get the one is find one in a wrecked 2024 and slap it in there because nothing really change besides the front grill/bumper and radio. Hope that answered your questions best I could.

@shoegame7138 5 ай бұрын

I had no expectation that the 12.3 head unit from the 2024 model would fit in my 2021 model... and you are referring to a company such as Diode Dynamics or HIDNATION for a replacement with Brighter and Better LEDs, I'm assuming?

@TheRealCountryBoyModz 5 ай бұрын

@@shoegame7138 yes it will definitely fit just remove the housing from the 24 and slap it in the 2021 and yes for the LEDs it’s a company like that but their name is Lasfit which sells the whole entire LED kit for our cars which I am running on mine beside the headlights

@shoegame7138 5 ай бұрын

@TheRealCountryBoyModz I just talked with the parts department at Central Nissan in Houston, Texas... & The Parts Supervisor said he also thought it was swappable... he has a 2022, and what he found out is that the entire dash would have to be swapped... What are your thoughts... Side note this would be a excellent video if you could give everyone a solution to this common issue... The Head unit swap & a Grille Swap for a 2024 Look... you seen how many people watched the removal video...

@TheRealCountryBoyModz 5 ай бұрын

@@shoegame7138 that’s correct and I’ve thought about upgrading the front end to the 2024 but it will be a project later down the road. Headlights are the same besides they added switchbacks and got rid of the turn signal in the lower part of the bumper. If I do upgrade it would be factory or aftermarket. Like you said it would definitely be a great video
