For the preamp out I used a Kicker LOC wired to a male RCA and you get an instant 5V for my subs. As for my door mids and highs I used the high ends also to an LOC and bumped the voltage to 5V.
I've never tried Dasaita radios yet but Android radios have improved a ton in the past 2 years. I think they're finally at the point where there isn't much more to improve. I recommend the swap. 😁
Hey Jason, Happy Thanksgiving.... This week I will join you with my 2nd WS6 being delivered, this time a T-top to go with my Vert. I have a New Joying 10.1 radio, that I am prepping for install. I know its been a couple years, but I thought I'd ask anyways. Looking at the Joying ISO Harness, they have 2 SWC wires (key 1 Brown and Key 2 Pink). These are to be connected to the SWC in the car. According to the Wiring diagram, we only have 1 SWC wire (dark blue). Do you remember how you set yours up? Did you use just 1 wire or tie them all together? Edit - I think I found the answer, twist them all together.
@@shuntao3475 Congrats on your purchase. Check out my other videos. I recorded a complete steering wheel control install for Android radios. You need to buy a PAC SW adapter and wire it. If you just twist them all together it will not work.
Hello mate. Is this home screen the factory one or you have downloaded any app? I have the same unit but it doesn't look like yours when i turn it on. Thank you
How did u make the trim piece around the screen ? Will u be able to send me one ? I’ll pay u and shipping , I’ll try do the trim piece myself tho plz lmk
my father has another type of android radio thats a double din in his camaro, you can buy brackets that will make the double din radios fit so i do have a question, why did you go with this radio? besides its contents (it seems very well functioning) was the single din electronics just more appealing or easier to install? also how is the audio processing? if i do get this radio for my TA i wanna hold off on an amp
The single and double din version of it are identical. When it was released it was originally only available in the single din. The double came out a few weeks later. That's really the only reason I bought the single din of it.
Best Firebird I ever seen I told my folks I was gonna put a tablet in as my deck he just looked at me strange we are trying to get our Firebirds like yours where can I get those inside doors do you sell them.
@@armith yeah I wish it did work that way. It would be super convenient when I'm pulling into a car show than having to pull my phone out. In one of my other videos I show how to hook up your steering wheel controls on Joying radios. You'll need a PAC adapter.
Thanks for making this video. What are you using for signal to your amp, speaker level out, rca out, or optical out? I'm curious if the rca out is noisy like most other Chinese Android units. I have an Avin unit that I need to replace because the rca output is unusable due to alternator noise.
Just got mine up and running and it’s pretty cool! Mostly on your recommendation I purchased but I got the 10.1 in 1920x1200 new model (I think it’s new as of 10/21!?) So I have the power car antenna wired to the ‘ant’ wire on the radio and it does come up but seems to come up when the car is turned on (acc) and not go down when I switch to other music apps. Not a big deal but would like it to go down when I play something other than radio like it did with my Alpine. Another things is I have external amps and it wasn’t obvious you need to turn on ‘amp’ in the settings before the amp turn on will pass the signal to actually turn on my amps. Just a hint for others… Trying to get the Google play store set up on the unit failed repeatedly when selecting PayPal for payment. Found through a web search that you need a desktop or laptop and set up PayPal there first but it still failed for me. Not a biggie and doesn’t seem to be a Joying issue. That unit beep is really loud! Haven’t messed too much with it yet but it would be nice to have a level setting for that so I could get audible feedback after leaving the tree. It’s just too hard to drive the 1/4 and set a song or call for celebratory pizza and beer at that point 🤔😂 I ended up with a double din since I ordered the older unit single din from China on 8/16 and it just yesterday shipped 10/4! Amazon had the newer 1920x 1200 unit in stock for next day shipping but it was double din. Double din will fit in a 4th Gen trans am or Camaro. You just need to cut the floor out of the dash radio compartment. No biggie as it’s reinforced plastic. Gonna 3D print a bezel for the screen. That will be fun! Steering wheel controls aren’t working yet but I think your other video will help as I’m using an old PAC unit and that video gave me some clues. The screen is real responsive and after several reboots (not by me! It was self induced on the unit) it seems to have settled down and is behaving. But I only have several hours playing at this point. Much of which was trying to figure out the interface, how to get the apps, and then why there was no amp turn on signal being sent. OK - enough…. I wanna play with it this afternoon!
BTW - where did you mount the GPS antenna? I’m thinking of going externally in the sail panel at the rear hatch but that’s a big hole relatively to drill. Maybe above the rear view on the windshield?? And the 4G antennas don’t seem to be useful to me as I’m not planning on contracting a service at this time but will probably just mount them on either side of the dash concealed under it. Hmmmm
You can turn the system beep off in the sound settings. I don't know why almost every radio on the planet defaults to the beep on. I always find them super annoying. For my power antenna I have a toggle switch hooked up for that wire. I absolutely never listed to the radio so there is no reason to have it going up and down. The switch is for the rare occasion my wife drives the car. As for the GPS antenna, I have it behind the plastic trim of the A pillar. It sits flat close to the windshield. There's plenty room for it there. Driver or passenger side both work perfectly. I've mounted every gps radio antenna I've owned in the past 15 years there and it always works perfectly. 😎
@@1999TransAmWS6 Both great ideas! Will be doing them today. The old PAC SWC I have didn’t work no matter what. I got tired of messing and just ordered the axxess model. Now to measure for the 3d printed faceplate…. Thanks Jason!
@@shanemyers5044 life has become so busy I haven’t worked on that yet. I was pretty much going to do what Jason did except with the printer. Print a U shaped band to go around the screen and maybe mold it in at the bottom like his but not sure yet. Probably after the holidays I’ll tackle it.
@@kylekoenig3235 it would be impossible. There's too much variation on how the radio itself is mounted. I need the actual car in front of me to make my templates. I made a template off this car, then installed the same radio in my other trans am and the templates didn't work. Plus it's just a lot of time to build. Making the trim around the radio screen is a huge pain. I have to heat it just right or the plastic melts or cracks. Somehow I got lucky on this car and nailed it the first try. On my 2nd car, it took me 7 attempts and quite a few hours. The price i would charge wouldn't be worth it.
Can you skip songs using steering wheel controls when using car launcher? I have an older joying unit and the volume control works but can't skip songs unless using native music player...
@@rexcraig4628 yeah it's the latest and what I currently run in both cars. Technically all joying radios are the same, it comes down to what size screen you want and how good you are at fabrication. The 7" is an easy install with a Metra bezel. All other sizes and shapes take some sort of fabrication to look good otherwise they look cheap in my opinion.
@@1999TransAmWS6 two more things one how did you wire it up? and the other i have an aftermarket steering wheel is there a way to adjust the volume on the display?
@@maazzii3020 IT wires up the same as any regular aftermarket radio. There's tons of videos out there on there. I highly do not recommend it if you don't have steering wheel controls. You may want to look at some of the joint models that have a volume knob.
@@justinglen88 It does have a full set of RCA outputs for amp connections. For a sub, I recommend getting a line driver. The preouts are a bit weak since they are only 2 volts. They work fine for speakers but for a sub it just didn't sound good. I have a Rockford fosgate line driver which bosts it to 5 volts and sounds much better.
I love the dedication and passion you have with your car projects! 😃
Thanks, always trying to come up with something new.
Great vid and installation on your head unit look professional.
also i love your videos! all the custom stuff seems awesome and i cant wait to put some on my TA
Thanks. They are fun cars to play with. I'm currently having a custom steering wheel modified. I'll post a video when it's done.
Very good video and nice clean install.!
Thanks Phillip

@@1999TransAmWS6 oh no! I think most would agree it’s spot on!😁
Oh and as. The old saying goes “bold is beautiful”😜😜😜
What are the exact dimensions in inches??
Can you test the voltage of the preamp as the spec of 2v is never followed by joying

It's the original OEM one. It just has a different blue overlay on it.

Hello mate. Is this home screen the factory one or you have downloaded any app? I have the same unit but it doesn't look like yours when i turn it on. Thank you
The home screen is an app called car launcher. It only works on older models. Newer Joying radios don't allow changing the launcher.

Have you tried installing the pfod app and controlling the KR scanner from the headunit??
It won't work. The Joying radio is a receiver type bluetooth, not exactly like a phone
That's cool wasn't sure if BT was 2 way capable or not. I ordered up the 8" version.

I use RCA with a line driver. The preamps are a bit weak on the Joying so the line driver bumps it up closer to 5v from 2v

Very nice video dude. Did you buy direct from Joying's website?
