A suggestion, in order to facilitate removal of the radio unit and lessen the risk of damage to the front plate, instead of pulling it, like you show at 2m27s, go to the removal of the glove box, at 3m00s in, then put your hand in the well, on the left, and push the whole radio unit out front. This is much easier that way. Another thing, there's another product I've been using for now 11 years, an XCarLink, which has aux, 30 pin iPhone/iPod adapter and Bluetooth (optional) which would be more appropriate for iPhone users. Otherwise, thanks for this very useful video!

Hi dude, excellent tutorial as always. I've been considering Yatour for a while. Have you had any negative experiences with it yet? I've also looked at grom and connects2. Im finding a bug in android or the Bluetooth devices. Sometimes the volume is set to 50% when Bluetooth connects but cannot get that volume back to full even with the phone Vol. It looks more likely it's a Bluetooth issue. This device is great though. Having the option to use hard wired aux is definitely a fix for me until we can figure it out in XDA. Awesome as always though mate. Keep it up!

@Drivenbymadness 6 жыл бұрын

Hey man :) Never had an issue with it. Volume works from lower to max, like with the normal radio. I have a popup in my phone that blocks volume when connected to headphones or aux, but i just press ok, and it lets me go from 50% to 100% volume. Hope this helps :) Thanks mate, i'm glad you like it!

When I listen to the radio everything is ok and it does not switch off. Have you had this problem at all ? I have tried with two other mobile phones using bluetooth and an aux cable and I always have the same problem. My version is 9.55 like yours.

@Driven By Madness I bought the Yatour Bluetooth adapter for my 2006 RX-8 almost two years ago & sadly still haven't had it Installed. I don't trust going to a third party - this is something my father could do as he's a whiz with rotaries BUT I have a right wheel drive (in Australia) AUTO transmission. I've watched your video dozens of times and feel *almost* confident to try installing it myself except that I can't find any examples of doing an install on an auto transmission. Yes of course manual is better but when you're literally given a full sport spec 06 RX-8, you don't complain! Also minor side note but now that most phones (mine anyway), don't come with the 3.5mm jack, does that remove a step if you purely want to connect the Bose stereo to my phone via Bluetooth? Thanks in anticipation that you see this!

@Drivenbymadness Жыл бұрын

Hi, I don't think that the install should be different l, except for the trim removal around the shift knob, but you can skip that, since you dont have AUX and just have the adapter in the glove box and connect to it through Bluetooth. Let me know if you have further questions on specific parts of the install that cause a dilemma and we will try to solve them.

@@megglesy Correct, because you're connecting the adapter to the radio, trough a wire. Once you take out the radio, the install is extremely easy, literally plug and play. I've ruoted the aux cable to my armrest, because i use aux, but if you use only bluetooth, you can skip this step. Adapter in glove box + wires that connects to the radio, that's all you need. Just make sure you have the compatible firmware. It's alright man, i'm just glad i helped someone build the courage do work on their car by themselves. Cheers!

You should be able to install the SiriusXM app on you phone to replace the factory satellite radio, which may or may not come as a benefit. The wire to the satellite antennae that was mounted on my trunk lid eventually wore out due the the trunk being opened and closed so often, as well as rust from the antennae itself. I was able to relocate the antennae inside on the rear deck after snipping, stripping, and soldering the wire, but the reception has been diminished as a result. The phone app could eliminate the line-of-sight need, but introduce outage if you have poor cell service when traveling. I bought this adapter a couple weeks ago and attempted to install it just now, but found the port already in use from the factory satellite radio. I will likely unplug Sirius and try the phone app for awhile to see how it works.

Just to follow up: Trading factory satellite radio for bluetooth (or auxiliary cable) functionality seems to be a viable tradeoff for me. Also, I ended up putting the adapter in the "hidden" compartment. There is a half-round conduit that provides access to that space from the rear of the radio, so a bit of electrical tape to keep the cable in place didn't seem like too much effort.

Hey😁, Nice video. I was at the point of ordering but then i decided to check the software just incase. It seems my rx8 has V9.53 and I can't find a way to update it. Do you perhaps have any idea? (Can't find anything online besides buying another unit)

@Drivenbymadness Жыл бұрын

There is no other solution. Either a new unit with right firmare or other radio alltogether

Check that you installed the back pin correctly and that the cable on the usb box is tightened. Also try disconnecting it and reconnecting it

Does the 2004 Mazda RX8 come with blue tooth or aux standard?

@Jeffiekins 2 жыл бұрын

No. It's from 2004. My wife had a top-of-the-line '05 Toyota, and it had an Aux jack as a new feature, with no Bluetooth.

I will add your controls stopped working because the front panel has 2 connectors on both sides that join to the main CD changer unit when you pushed it back in you actually connected those back up, nothing to do with the screws bro. There is also some contact pin right in the centre of the back of the main front panel which is pressure mounted against the stereo, its the worst design ever but hey what can we do. Also I reckon it is possible to plug in that white connector without removing the stereo, I managed the antenna plug from the side which is right next to it haha.

The CD option still works, but if you want to enter the Yatour adapter mode, you have to press the CD button again. Hope i understood your question correctly.
