Thank you for posting this super quality video so that you could help thousands without earning anything back. A truly selfless act. I appreciate you, a real gigachad
perfect timing for the video just bought this yesterday and was worried about not knowing how to get the apple carplay going and the install process. great in depth video too bro!
Hi there I know this video has been one year old but I just got same screen and I installed it but the music from my phone is not connected to it and no incoming call connection to the car no AC or any of temperature or a heated seat showing on the screen.
Buddy, thank you so much for this video. Helped me install my unit and made it an absolute breeze. The backup camera too! Loving the new unit and it looks spectacular. Only weird thing is my volume and skip buttons don’t work properly. Not a big deal, but would love to know if you had this issue and how to fix it? Stellar video though man! Thanks again!!
Thanks for this you made a perfect, clear video of this job. I'm getting this exact radio today from UPS. Installing a stereo in this car is even easier than My 2014 Wrangler that I used to have. Especially removing the center console. Ford really did make these jobs simple to do.
Been looking at videos trying to understand where to install the backup camera reverse wire on the head unit. It looks pretty much plug and play. Give power to the camera at brake light and just plug in yellow video plug at radio. Thank you so much!
Hello can you please help, did every step in the video, but I can’t hear the music. However, I made I call and they were able to hear me so that’s good. Is there something I may have missed to be able to hear the music. Please help
Dude this is one of the best installation vid. I’m thinking about doing this to mine too. Is it still running well on your car? Any issues that you’ve encountered?
It will not fit, even without any clips, there seems to be something stopping it from going in on both the top and bottom. I've made sure there's no wires or anything blocking it. Do you have any help or advice?
The cable that is originally for the oem screen what happen to it were did you connected it (the first plug you took off from the beginning from the old head unit )
I just bought one today, I have a question, the bottoms from the steering wheel still working? Also yo know if the heater seats can work with this unit ?
How did you get you a/c to work ? Because mine is not working. Before I took the og radio off I turned up the ac and turned down the volume. But it’s still not working. So I’m just wondering what did you do to make it work?
Hey just a question, I got the same car but when I open my door the dome lights doesnt turn on automatically . Just wanna make sure its only myar car or 2014 mustang dont have this basic feature!?
Got one using the link in the description, not sure if its the exact same model, interface is different and not as responsive, side buttons are glowing in rgb, and im having trouble setting up my iphone via zlink its telling me to enable siri despite having it already enabled
Not sure why some said quality was bad because it was an improvement over stock and sounds fantastic others issues not sure if it is an amp, sub woofer system or other mine was a basic stock system. Best thing I did to my mustang so much better than stock radio.
Hi can you tell me how’s the sound is? I have a alpine w928 and I want to make sure that the new radio got a nice sound like the alpine. Greets from Germany
Thanks for the great video and details, I have Mustang 2013, but when I replaced mine the Sync voice control commands not working ( like when you talk to activate blue-tooth , USB ,.... and other commands ) , it's at the controls of the steering wheel , the music button next to the forward and back word, so is that still working ?
i bought one from ebay it’s works the same 100% the camera just stop working but that’s not my issue the thing is that the ac screen comes and go like if iam turning it on or off
Did you bypass the amp?? I have the Shaker Pro and my sound went out so I bought this unit and it works great just still don't have sound. Thinking my amp is blown but I can't find info on it.
I just installed one. You will need to buy a couple of connectors from any auto store, they have quick connectors available that allow you to splice into an existing wire with out cutting it and a ring style crimp connector. There is a red and black plug pigtail that plugs into the power for the camera the red wire you will splice with the blue tail light wire the black wire needs to connect to ground. I used a quick splice/tap connector to the blue wire with the red from the pigtail and used a crimp ring connector on the black from the pig tail and attached it to the ground bolt that is near the rear tail light. If you pause the video as he talks about this you can actually see the black wire is grounded in the video. Then plug the pigtail into the power connector from the camera. The red wire that is hanging from the side of the long video cord is not used if you do it this way. The splice connector I mentioned has open on one side and has two channels in it. Lay the blue wire inside first and the red wire next to it and close the connector with some pliers and it will tap into both wires. Just be careful when you put a ring connector on the black wire, it is very thin. I put electrical tape around the connector as strain relief. @@kevinhhn
@@dphitch nice man, ima try it soon. I installed the head unit yesterday and finished the wiring from the head unit to the trunk,I gotta drill a hole where the license plate is first to snake the camera cable through the trunk, then I can tap into the blue tail light cable and ground the black one like you did. I wanna do this sometime this week, this head unit isn’t too shabby for $200~. The fit into the car could be better though, it didn’t seem like it was a perfect fit. It’s Chinese but you’re looking at 3x times the cost for other units not to mention installation/wiring/labor cost. Hopefully, it’ll last us! Will let you know how it went soon after I am finish with the installation.
Any reviews now from anyone that’s installed this and had it running a few months? I’m looking for a system to install in my Mustang after the stock ACM gave up.
Well I'm on my 3rd unit and actually got most working. Radio was working then sound quit. A/C wasn't working now working. Any idea what Protocol to use for a 2011 Mustang
Where can I get those little white clips because all of my clips are gone? I’ve had to resort to other methods to get my stereo Consol to stay in the dash
I found a solution! First you want to go to protocol settings. Make sure it says Network Can Set! Skip over raise. Scroll down to “BSJ”, to the right select ford, then select 2009-2014 mustang . Your ID should be 9005008. This will for sure fix the AC, steering wheel buttons and more!
Great video.. just installed my screen with this video, everything worked great EXCEPT my volume. I cant hear any music not even thru the regular radio.. any advice??
Turn up your phone volume all the way. If that doesn’t help their are a couple of volume settings you can mess with in the audio controls. Hope this helps
@@92chuks no did not. How did you get it going. The AC works and the buttons somehow work but no display shows. Or the speed is inaccurate. AC display doses not work on the screen tho. Only on the bottom display where the nibs are at but speed don’t work. Very frustrating
I would spend the extra money and get the the dynavin 8. I ended up taking this head unit out and returning it. Then I purchased the dynavin. I had a ton of problems with this Amazon head unit. Mostly with the A/c controls freaking out, and the sound quality wasn’t there. The dynavin has been perfect
What Brand is this head unit? I searched “Huge” in Amazon, but nothing turns up. Also how do you feel about head unit now that it has been a few months since you installed it. BTW, you have a very good, and comprehensive way to explain what you are doing. Thanks
Do i have to splice the wiring so that the backup camera only works when you go in reverse or does it automatically do it and show it on the screen when I go in reverse which means there was no need for that ?
Great video!! So I ordered the same unit, only problem I'm having is the climate control, once I turned it on it won't turn off. I don't see a off button for the ac or fan, does anyone else experience this issue?? Thank you an advance
@sebastianrea2959 Yes, I did, so I had to do the steering wheel button learning setup. Once there, I programmed the A/C option to one of the buttons on the steering wheel. That allowed me to see the full option screen and be able to turn on and off the system. Does that make sense?
@sebastianrea2959 let me know when you received yours. Hopefully, you won't have the same issue. I realize there are some many different brands for the same type of unit. I bought mine from Amazon
for a new youtuber the video quality is phenomenal

Should do a review on this unit after few more months to get your take on it or something like that.
Wondering what your thoughts are on this now? Is everything still working properly?
Hi there I know this video has been one year old but I just got same screen and I installed it but the music from my phone is not connected to it and no incoming call connection to the car no AC or any of temperature or a heated seat showing on the screen.
Thank you for the thought out explination. You clearly done this a million times and know what youre doing
I don’t have a car but I was nice watching ur video dude
Any tutorial on setting up the rear camera ?

I have a 2010 mustang I’m getting ready to install this in. I also did an Alpine install in my 2014 wrangler and yes not as easy.
5 months later, what can u say about it? still working good? what about the sound, conectivity, touchscreen lag?
What if you already have a back up camera on the rear mirror
I’d like to know also

Did you fix the problem (I hope by now lol) and if so how do you like the device overall is it working out well for you?
Dude this is one of the best installation vid. I’m thinking about doing this to mine too. Is it still running well on your car? Any issues that you’ve encountered?
Do you know the exact model of the kit you got from Amazon? Please respond
great video, where did you get the leather seats are they covers or re-upolstered.
Nm figured it out when I seen the Katzkin tag.
It will not fit, even without any clips, there seems to be something stopping it from going in on both the top and bottom. I've made sure there's no wires or anything blocking it. Do you have any help or advice?
Also the settings for the steering wheel can’t get them to work, what would I need to download?
Hi thanks for the instructional video helped a lot with my installation but how do I fix the km to miles
The cable that is originally for the oem screen what happen to it were did you connected it (the first plug you took off from the beginning from the old head unit )
Any idea why only audio from radio works but not audio from carplay? Only subwoofers work when in carplay mode
Great video
I just got mine today and watching your video made the installation process very quick for me.
How are you liking it I ordered the same one from eBay hopefully it works man
I ordered it man it cost me 217$ hopefully the ac and everything works crossing my fingers

Does this head unit illuminate where the AC controls are. My is not illuminating and the the Bluetooth doesn't work

You got the touchscreen and it came with the backup camera or you bought them both
Man. I got this and everything works great. One problem. The unit isn’t pushing back into place. I’m afraid to push too hard and break the tabs off.
Considering buying this. Do you still recommend this months later?
Don’t do it I learn the hard way
will this work in a 2013 shelby gt500? i have the shaker 1000 with nav and dual climate controls
I got the same one from Amazon can you make video how we can install speaker on that type of radio ,, thank you 😊
When I installed it my odometer started reading in km instead of miles, do you know how I can change it back to miles
Have you by chance seen any settings for subwoofer level? Thank you
I have automatic transmission. Is there a trick to popping the center console up?
Hey! You actually don't need to remove the shifter at all! I'm just doing it now haha
Loved you video❤
