🍎 CAR PLAY ON A SINGLE DIN RADIO. INSTALL ON THE OBS CHEVY (BUDGET FRIENDLY) UNDER 200$!!😟🤝🏻

[@Rookie_Rebel]

I just ordered this radio, my boss radio is shot. Can’t listen to fm radio, can’t change the volume unless it’s on my phone, ready to install this radio

[@MrTribaltats05]

I have a 97 this would be perfect. My other vehicle came with a touchscreen with CarPlay. Radio in my truck is about done for. It’s an older Kenwood

[@Chadwiththe5.3]

defiantly worth it!

[@jaylonangela8053]

can you please get part numbers for the bezel kit and the haness adapter?

[@vrwired]

Any problem powering the stock amp? Which wire did you use to power the stock amp. Blue to blue wire? Or?

[@Chadwiththe5.3]

@@vrwired mine does not have a amp I don’t believe it doesn’t have the Bose sound system like the denalis had from that year

[@RiveraGarage84]

Are the rca ports for subs in the back of radio

[@Chadwiththe5.3]

@@RiveraGarage84 yes

Just curious, do you notice any impact on mobile data usage streaming like that? I use a USB drive for music in my car, on a 32GB drive I have nearly 2000 songs and still a ton of space. I found streaming would eat up mobile data. It looks nice in the truck tho.

[@CollinswithanS]

Not to discourage ownership of your music library - I fully support that - but most steaming services allow you to download songs for offline play. You can download while on wifi, so you never touch your mobile data.

[@almartinelli5054]

@CollinswithanS Thank you. Im just curious if sound quality is better than the usb drive. I notice that some songs sound good and some not so good on the usb. I would like it more consistent.

[@CollinswithanS]

@@almartinelli5054 that'll be a matter of the bit rate of the files you have downloaded to the USB drive. With a streaming service, you can usually force it to only stream the highest quality available. For most services, that's usually 320kbps, though a few services (for example, tidal) offer FLAC streaming. If you're not familiar with FLAC, you likely don't need it, and would be fine with most any service. For car audio, 320kbps is fine. Between road noise and speaker quality and Bluetooth connection limitations (since that's how most people listen), you'll probably never notice a difference with higher fidelity than 320kbps anyway.

@@CollinswithanS I like FLAC but its so memory intensive. Im in the car for long periods at times so more variety was the deciding factor as far as format. I have tried bluetooth and wasnt really impressed with it. I still have a cd player so I can always fall back on that. Thanks for the info.
