For those wondering, for an automatic car, you need to use a different manufacturer, for loom etc. The units linked will work but if you have flappy paddles, or use the stick to auto shift, when you change up and down the unit volume will also change. I asked on three videos but no Answer, so I called the distributor, and that's the information from them. Hope that helps those like me that were confused :)
Odd that the sunroof was rare over there. I have yet to see one in the states without, even the base model NG9-3's. Love seeing the 05 Aero rims on the facelift though! Nice looks.
Mostly see them missing on the 08+ from what I've seen. Have seen a few poverty spec 03-05 here without sunroof, heated seats and with 15" wheels. Few and far between though.
Same here (Oz). Sunroofs are not universal here. I think that some of the cheaper models and variants in the 1980s and 1990s didn't have them, but I could be completely wrong. All the Saabs I've owned going back to 1984 have had one. I've noticed some strange differences between Australian and UK cars. We went to England in 1989 and I drove my father's 1987 325i BMW. It only had electric windows in the front as an option where the Australian version had electric windows all round as standard. I converted my father to Saab and his 2000 9-3 SE manual had a wood-trim dash and wood trim around the doors. I don't think that we ever had the wood trim here. It's a UK thing. Up-market cars had wood trim. My Australian spec 2007 9-3 Aero has leather seats, dual zone climate control, electric sunroof, electric windows all round, bi-xenon headlights, electric front seats with memory for the driver's seat, all as standard. It has headlight washers but not wipers. My old 900 cars had the wipers. Marketing, I guess.
I think a lot of people on the fence about android units involves a lack of detail on how great the various apps can be from the android store in a car. One example would be the ability to say put plex on it and actually download video using the wifi sitting right outside your house for example. Or maybe connecting up a game controller with an emulator on it.. the offline google maps are something I think is really cool aka no need for a phone.... apps to hit up the OBD feature that might provide useful data... maybe even one that can look up a sensor code right there on the headunit with no need to pull out a phone... things like that. I don't know if that makes sense or not, but I do think a lot of videos fall short on this. There is such great value in the apps from the store.
@@SaabUnleashed I'm very much interested in this. I've been trying to find information, but all I've been able to find are ads and reviews of individual apps. I haven't been able to find anywhere that tells me how to use an Android head unit e.g. why do you need an internal sim, how do you link it to an ISP or phone company, how much data do you need to allow for, etc. How do e.g. off-line navigation apps compare with dedicated GPS/Satnav units? And so on ...
Good video. I'm going to try and fit a similar unit. Been looking at a Tunez "plug n go" complete package. It's the only kit I can find that is complete. Not sure about the brand but they're sold on Amazon. What can go wrong. Haha. Famous last words. I'm not very electrically minded but you make it look so easy. Cheers.
Maybe TPMS module is self powered meaning - you need to install them on wheel and drive around few miles to be powered on. That is how the original TPMS work too.
The sensors only transmit once they detect rotational force, they also only transmit intermittently once operational to save battery - they don't stay in constant communication.
Good information! I don't own a Saab but the info in this video applies to most installations. As for the TPMS, it is possible to install them without taking the tires to a repair shop and it's not as difficult to do on your own as you might think: th-cam.com/video/yIWUz2UIKdw/w-d-xo.html Not mentioned in the video is that if you need help getting the tire to re-seal onto the rim, you can use a ratcheting tiedown strap around the circumference of the tire to squeeze the tire into the bead until it starts to take air effectively, then remove the strap and continue inflating. Also, many cars already come with TPMS though you may not see any front end info unless there's an underinflated tire or a blowout. To see that stock TPMS info on your Android head unit, you can use something like an OBDII dongle and an app like Torque Pro that runs on the Android hardware (dongle + app is well under $50). Or, have a look at the Open Vehicle Monitoring System (OVMS) for TONS of info about your vehicle and the ability to read info remotely or even control the vehicle, such as remote start, climate control and so on. It's really cool! Current support is mainly electric vehicles, but you can read about it here: docs.openvehicles.com/en/latest/introduction.html
Hi, I purchased an xtrons unit for my 2010 saab 9-3 but the electrician who has to install it for me says it's not possible because my car has an amplifier behind the trunk while the xtrons unit is pre-amplified , can you help me?
Hi Stuart. Thanks so much for all the content. I have a 2006 Saab 93 and am looking to get either this unit or, more likely a Joying 7". I have seen many of your installs but they are tending to be on 2008+ cars which have the squared off hole for the radio whereas the 2006 ICM1 is curve shaped on the left hand side to the dash bezel. Do you know of any fitting kits / blanking plates or do the manufacturers supply them durng order if you specify the vehicle ?
The 2003 to 2006 Saab 9-3 uses a fibre optic system for the head unit. You can not chande the original head unit but you can put a new single din head unit (w/o a display) in place of the CD player under the climate contols.
Thanks for the reviews! Do you have a video that shows the installation of power cabling in a Saab 9-3 to an aftermarket unit? I can't get my head around. I am probably overthinking it. And/or hesitant to screw things up - Help is greatly appreciated.
I’m having problems getting the reverse cam to work. I’ve followed your instructions but still no signal. Do you need to connect the power line on the lead that runs from the back to the front to anything? I presumed that the connects2 fly wire did the job of switching to aux, by connecting it to back, and no further connection was required? Help!

Hello, great videos all along on all the topics.. I have an Xtrons HU installed on my Mitsubishi Montero 2003 and I love it. I have issues with the installation of my cameras and since I have an strange setup I am most likely to ask for help to Tech Support on this. How can I get in contact with someone for technical questions on their Head Units? Thanks for all the information an d Happy New Year!!
Did u ever figure out the TPMS issue? I bought IQP92M245 head unit with DVR030S dashcam and TPMS07 tire pressure monitoring but I cannot get them to work. Dashcam is connected to USB and red light is on but no image in DVR app or any other app. Only orange icon with "!" symbol. Same thing with TPMS. Connected to USB and red light flashes for a second when plugging in but all sensors are red in the app with no data connection.
22:11 min: I had an Xtrons with the some 3 cables (K1, K2, GND). I switched to an Eonon q03pro with only K1, K2. Do i have to connect the GND of the Can-Bus anywhere else or just leave it?
I had the same problem. Connect the blue ANT cable directly to the amp turn-on lead fly wire on the Connects2 loom. This will power your amplifier and you’ll get sound.

This is great. Every 9-3 head unit video you release reduces the cloud of ignorance and uncertainty in my head. I'll probably be getting the 7" T'eyes CC2 Plus for my 2007 9-3 Aero manual, but I've just bought a Maptun leather steering wheel and buying a head unit as well in the same month might cause a ripple in the aura of domestic harmony. Your steering wheel swapping video has been very useful. Is the aftermarket install kit you list here compatible with the T'eyes CC2 plus?
i have an xtrons head unit in my saab 9-3. it's getting really slow now. Takes an age to open spotify. And the DAB only works if i am in the town centre, really poor out of town, it won't work when other DAB radios i have had on rental cars works well out of town. I might change it
Slowness happens as apps get more sophisticated. Apps evolve over time to make use of the ever increasing specifications of phones and tablets. If you have an old Xtrons, it's probably starting to feel like it's slowing down because your apps are demanding more from it. As for DAB, sounds like it could be an antenna issue
@@SaabUnleashed Ha! The basic rule for computers is that whenever the hardware gets faster and has more memory capacity, programmers will fill it up with bling that may or may not be useful.

Great video, I was wondering if these Xtrons units support factory reversing cameras? And if not is there a canbus adapter that works with these? I really have no faith in EONON and this brand seems solid
So the thing with factory reverse cameras is that they can be used with any head unit, providing you can get an adaptor for your car which changes the factory plug into a video RCA, which is what all the head units need

I used the window DAB antenna in this video. Remember you can send that splitter back as its from amazon.
@@SaabUnleashed Do you have an answer about the fakra connector please
@@ged5288 The fakra connector in this video is for the standard FM antenna as usual. That splitter you have is not going to have different results going directly from Fakra to SMA
@@SaabUnleashed I have two fakra cables in the car (Built-in) both look to be antenna cables and look like the white fakra on your video. I was hoping that one would be the DAB and one is the built in GPS that my car have from factory. Thats why I asked the question
@@ged5288 If you have a Saab, one is GPS and the other is FM
hello, how to communicate with the author?
I have a Saab 95 NG, I want something for it
What's your question? I have tested Idoing, Teyes, Dasaita, NVNAV and Witson in the 9-5NG
Can you still use the Nightpanel function for this headunit?
Nightpanel will not affect any aftermarket screen
@@SaabUnleashed dang, i hope it would
Xtrons 2gb, teyes cc plus or atoto f7?
Stuck between these two
The Teyes wins out of those. Also, the Atoto F7 isn't an Android head unit so you won't be able to install DAB (which you previously mentioned)
@@SaabUnleashed I ended up getting a grundig gx800 android auto, but now reading this connects 2 only works with manuals?
Its confusing tbh as I can't see what difference it would make
Thanks mate, great content as usual
