This installation is so incredibly easy literally a 30 min job we step you though how to install the DDX917WS into the Hilux from 2006 - 2013. This is a direct plug and play installation.

I just installed the same unit in my 2015 Hilux this afternoon, the video was very helpful, cheers! It all was very straight forward and everything works great, the only thing I found is that the purple wire in your supplied wiring loom adaptor kit was VERY short and no where near long enough to connect to the power at the fuse box as per your video, I had to solder an extra piece on to make it long enough.

[@AutoChimpElectronics]

Ahh ok good idea we will make this longer for people ;D thank you for the feedback!

[@GBlunted]

Damn, those solder skills seemed damn near legendary!

[@LilPetoz]

He explains everything so clearly while doing his job so quickly how good is he! But is this kit still available?

[@colt11mitsi]

Great videos guys and thanks for doing them, quick question on tapping into reverse wire for reverse camera, I have a 2012 VDJ79 Lancruiser workmate ute, is the reverse wire in the same place and same colour code as in this video?. Keep up the great work.

[@blinanovic]

very cool. is it the same procedure for the newer Hilux models (2022)

[@high_lyfe8546]

Seems simple enough to tap into the reverse light trigger

[@RL-dv5lm]

[@nikosbel5373]

[@albertflorido9125]

[@robcross2128]

Awesome video, cheers . Do you have a link to purchase this unit through you guys, plugs camera etc?

[@lawrienotchi2090]

Could you comment the link on how to get up the toyota symbol on startup? Cheers., tried looking but cant find it on your page, thanks

[@Ray-tf2ps]

Thanks it was quick and easy

[@Rcovry]

What do I need to look for on a aftermarket head unit to make sure it's compatible with my steering wheel controls?

[@boazshachar2415]

Legend!

[@daboop]

Can I install a Kenwood DDX26BT the same way? I want to retain my CD player, I’m old school, couldn’t care less about bluetooth…

[@d.vsinghbali7550]

Great help

[@whiterabbittrinity7684]

Can you show one on 1998 LC75 series pls?

[@nayeemhassan5438]

Nice video. My Toyota has a NSZTW61(factory installed panasonic player) the player shows reverse camera feed with Dynamic/ moving lines. Will Kenwood DDX917 support that function? Thanks

[@marvinmendozajavier]

Hi, how can I transfer the Apple Carplay from Right to Left?

[@heartobefelt]

Does anyone know if speakers can be connected directly to the RCA plugs on the rear of these or are they for amplifier connection only ? The manual says nothing about them.

[@lotfiofir8241]

Hi, I have a 2010 Toyota Hilux with a defect I do not know when I turn off a car that keeps running lights like lights and side lights. I do not know where the fault is.

[@conanspencer707]

Please show us on the 2016 hilux and what sound ?

[@jizzmate]

Hey guys great video just installed this into my 2008 sr5 hilux and had troubble with the antenna very poor reception the standard unit had been upgraded before i owned it to allow for a toyota reverse camera i would like to know if there is something available to convert the factory camera 4pin socket to the rca and positive/negative required? thanks in advance

[@AutoChimpElectronics]

Hi Mate, We can make you an adapter to do the 4 pin to RCA and power for you. Email us [e-mail]

[@jizzmate]

Email sent look forward to hearing from you

[@jizzmate]

Hey guys recieved the rca adaptor and it connects up well but no image do i need to run a 12 to 6v converter?

[@zhoumbajaber770]

[@dahaproject3498]

how to find VSS wire location?

[@001dman]

i am disappointed this radio never came to america. oh well. at least the 2020 toyota 86 has the 200mm radio and car play.

[@samsue1224]

Ey Guys, would this work also for 2014/2015 model Different looking head unit to the 2013 but the dash and that is basically the same

[@AutoChimpElectronics]

Sure mate kits here: carboncarsystems.com.au/?post_type=product&s=Hilux+Stereo+2014

[@bobmarshall3700]

Rather than tape, I would have used heat shrink tubing.

[@jojohehe3251]

It would take me an hour to reair the wires I cut by accident stripping like this

[@flemminge.rasmussen2268]

How can I contact you for this unit

[@conanspencer707]

Do u get a better sound with this ?

[@EASYABSOLUTION]

I just installed this unit to my 2013 Toyota 86, There is a noticeable difference to the factory unit, increased output to the speakers, and a lot of EQ settings to adjust to your liking.

[@Neilhoh3]

"Never upgrade maps again"?? Android Auto and Car Play only run Google / Apple maps,. These get updated from time to time, don't they? And are not usable without data connection or unless using downloaded maps, with some restrictions on functions. Correct? DDX919WS is current model [May 2019]

[@AutoChimpElectronics]

Yes they update automatically with phone and app updates mate so you never have to "purchase" them again.

[@marlon5232]

can i get your contact

[@dunhillcapule5629]

Hi. I'm from the Philippines. I just bought this unit. My GPS receiver is not working in android auto (waze and google ,maps). I've parked in an open area and drove around. I've also follow your placement inside the dash. Do I need a internet data to work? Some says I need a gps module for it to work. Please advise. Thanks.

[@AutoChimpElectronics]

turn data on you need this just for the initial search.

[@jaybajan]

can the reverse camera still work on this

[@ophchristian8259]

sell it to me please
