New JK owner here.. appreciate your videos!

[@steveschillero2013]

I’m glad I could help!

[@amalespin8115]

Steve, this was great! Thank you. I have a 2016 Wrangler and I am going to add this radio as soon as possible!

[@Knenemeka]

I’m getting a 2016 JK Jeep Wrangler soon!! Thanks for the video, it really was helpful

[@frankbaublit]

Thanks for your video ❤❤❤

[@anthonyg4073]

Nice jeep Sir!

[@anthonyg4073]

Thanks for replying. Thats an ugly as* jeep 😐

[@kerrykeosodsay005]

Thank you

[@unknowng9664]

Hi Steve! Thanks for this wonderfully put together video!! I'm curious about who you reached out to for the installation as I too am looking to purchase the Pioneer Stereo. Thanks again!

[@getout116]

Thanks for this! Does the CarPlay have a night display? Also, which mic are you using for phone calls?

[@spacecowboy2614]

Did you have to buy a trim kit so the head unit would fit the factory hole if so which one did you have to get?

[@getout116]

Where is the CarPlay cord coming out of?

[@aacar4095]

Still with newer stereos do you still have to plug in the iPhone literally to get it to do CarPlay? I know I rented a car a while back and it just connected wirelessly to all the CarPlay features. I know this video is a little old as well.

[@wilphotosafarinc9995]

I have that same music in one of my videos! (not important but cool)

[@colourwavestudios]

You should be able to connect the existing center console USB using a Metra AX-USB-MINIB USB to MINI B Adaptor Cable. $5.

[@John-hr7ew]

Would this work the same with a 2017 first generation Jeep Compass?

[@deboss8998]

how much did they charge you to install it

[@stephencjordan]

Wiring Harness? Installed a Joybring off Amazon in his 2013 wrangler but wouldn't work- does this one come with a wiring harness adapter or would that be seperate

[@title1ted]

I just purchased a 2016 Wrangler Unlimited Sport. It has the stock stereo in it, no video screen, just good 'ol fashioned stereo. Will this stereo with Apple Car Play still fit in the chassis/casing or is this too big to fit? I know it fits yours but you have a Sahara which had a video screen in your original stereo. Thanks in advance!

[@getout116]

Which headlight are you running.

[@figgy9496]

Does the lag stop once you upgrade?

[@ming6998]

Did bestbuy do the install?

[@DannyIsSoFly]

Hi Steve, considering getting a jk wrangler Sahara soon and this is a great touch to modernize the Jeep. If you don’t mind me asking about how much did you pay to have someone install this set up?

[@steveschillero2013]

I believe it was around $200 to install the stereo, connect the steering wheel controls, install the back up camera, and mount a USB port so I could plug in my iPhone for apple carplay.

[@DannyIsSoFly]

@@steveschillero2013 oh wow not bad at all! Thanks for the quick reply, really looking forward to joining the jeep community here pretty soon

[@quadratix7954]

@@steveschillero2013 how do you mount a port since the stereo doesn’t already have one mounted

can you use youtube music with this? can you make a video update? thanks!

does this work for the JK 2011

[@juanosmanorellana6743]

Great Video! The controls behind the steering wheel works with the radio? Thanks

[@steveschillero2013]

Yes!

[@psanscartier]

Great video Steve. Really well explained. Quick question, did you need to visit a dealer to get the backup camera activated when in reverse? From what I understand, they must enable a feature for this to happen. Let me know if you have the answer to this. Thanks

[@steveschillero2013]

I had a local auto tech install the back up camera. So I never took it to the dealer.

[@jamesyers1975]

I think if you are using the stock radio like the one he removed and want to add a backup camera you have to take it to the dealership but not on an aftermarket radio.

[@FaithMancuso]

im looking onto buying this new stereo for my wrangler. did you have to buy other stuff for them to connect it to your wheel when you want to change the song or volume? thanks!

[@steveschillero2013]

There are a few other things you will need. I had an auto tech install it for me so he had the parts. You typically can get this done at Best Buy.

[@FaithMancuso]

@@steveschillero2013 yea I was planning on getting mine done at Best Buy too! Thank you

[@mrs.bandme6275]

I have a 2013 JK and just bought this same stereo! I am having trouble connecting to apple carplay. In your video I heard you say you need to plug in your phone. How do I plug in my phone to connect?

[@steveschillero2013]

There is a USB port in the back of the stereo. You will need to route a USB extension cable from the back of the stereo to wherever you’d like to connect from your Jeep. Some people run it out of the glove box because it is the easiest place to access from behind the stereo. You can also run the cord below the stereo and out the carpet near the cup holders. I had mine mounted right by my e-brake. A hole needed to be drilled so I’d use a professional for that. I hope that helps!

Great video same unit currently in Best Buy $250 installed How much was the camera

[@steveschillero2013]

I believe the camera was $150-$200 installed.

[@cmlegend]

Nice and all but an install video of all the components would have been cool. I'm doing the install myself

[@jamesyers1975]

He didn’t install it. In the beginning of the video he said he had it professionally installed.

[@larryferguson9424]

What is a ballpark total on the stereo, camera, and installation?

[@steveschillero2013]

Larry Ferguson around $500 for everything installed.

[@drummerboyian]

I've read that when installing some of these after market systems you lose control of front to back fade, have you experienced this problem?

[@steveschillero2013]

To be completely honest I never tried the fade option!

[@Vengancejr]

Late response but for anyone who happens upon this... You do. Has to do with the way the Chrysler amp etc is setup. Won't give you Bluetooth audio through front and back speakers so they install it so that the front and back booth draw audio from just the front speakers via the radio plug. It's unfortunate but not really noticeable. I have the alpine upgraded factory system and just got the android wireless version of this radio and sounds loads better. No longer muffled and super bass distortion. Clean audio with factory speakers

[@landlordrolph3262]

do I have to plug it into a wire to get it to go to apple carplay or can i connect my phone through Bluetooth to apple carplay? The video said it had Bluetooth but when he was talking about apple carplay, he said to plug it in.

[@steveschillero2013]

Yes, you have to plug it in via USB for Apple CarPlay to work. You will have to route a USB port out somewhere on the vehicle

[@scottyprice85]

does the console USB not work for this?

[@baileybrunelle8685]

Does the screen dim with the factory controls like the factory one does?

[@steveschillero2013]

Yes

[@mariagiroux7029]

Can you install it for me?😊

[@layneholmes3527]

Can you turn off that beep sound when you touch the screen?

[@stephencjordan]

Yeah there's a setting to turn that off

[@Rizzard_of_ozzzz]

Just got a 2016 wrangler and have the stock button only radio lmaoo

[@sclark56DL]

It would be nice if it was a plug and play so you can use the stirring wheel features

[@steveschillero2013]

You can use the steering wheel buttons. Mine work. There is just another wiring harness you need

[@layneholmes3527]

[@stephencjordan]

you typically have to buy aftermarket wiring harness that adapts to whatever specific car you have kinda like the middle man between your stereo and your car@@layneholmes3527

[@joekalilikani]

After the install, did you have any problems with the stock compass? I had a new stereo installed and my compass reads East, all the time. I've tried resetting it with no success.

[@steveschillero2013]

No I haven’t had any issues.

will this stereo work with a 2004 TJ?

do the controls for the phone still work?

Everything works great!

[@joncruz]

Thanks for the video but no wireless apple car play is a deal breaker for me.

[@stephencjordan]

That's why I went with the Sjoybring- on Amazon for 150- installed with an included backup camera in my tacoma and it works so well. You have a volume knob as well which is what I noticed missing here too.
