Carplay & Android Auto installation for Peugeot 308 II | The DIY Guys

Link to the kit we used: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_AZqzLF
Here is a video on how to install an aftermarket Carplay / Android Auto unit into your Peugeot 308 II. This works with other cars as well but the installation will be a bit different. Always make sure to order a Carplay unit that fits your car.
In the next video we will install the backup camera in our Peugeot 308 II that is linked to the Carplay unit.
If you have any questions or find that something isn't clear, make sure to leave us a reaction. We'll be more than pleased to answer your questions.
Thanks for watching!

Hi, very nice and useful ! I would really like to see a video from you guys explaining how to install a rear view camera on a peugeot 308 II.

Hi Olivier, we are planning to post the video for the rear backup camera very soon. Because of covid some parts took longer to arrive. Thank you for waiting and the support. Thanks, The DIY Guys

[@eduardvarvara1829]

Very important, remove the cover from under the steering wheel to acces the small hole from the side where you push the clip the same like in the other side from the glove box. You will need a T20 torx for all the screws (steering wheel cover, smeg radio)

[@thediyguys6340]

Hi Eduard, this is very true. We forgot to show this in our video. We will pay attention for our next videos to make sure to show every important part. You can see at 1:32 that the part under the steering wheel is removed. Thank you for the support. The DIY Guys

Is there any other solutions to connect my phone to the car screen without removing anything??

[@eduardvarvara1829]

To display the phone screen on the car display the only solution is to change the display unit or to adapt the carplay adaptor. I was scared too at first that I will not succeed to do this task and the first time it took me 2-3 hours but believe me it is worth the time and effort 100%. It is so much comfortable to have the iphone on your car display when you drive even in the city but even more when you take long journeys! Or you can install it at a specialised car electronics garage! All the best! @@kaddechmongi146

[@o0OJulienO0o]

I have received my unit and installed it, thanks to your video I was able to remove the parts easily. my Peugeot 308 T9 2015 was fitted with a CD Player so I had to remove it completely to fit the Android Auto car unit, not a big deal as the Android Auto experience is much better anyway. I had to remove the plastic underneath the steering wheel as I could not access the right hand side (right hand drie car) of the dashboard.

Hi, I just wanted to say that I installed the unit today in my peugeot 308 2017 automatic and it works perfectly :) I had some problems with getting the plastic around the gear shift of but no other ones. I put the unit above the radio as you said, I had to struggle a little bit whit space but not a mayor problem. I also wanted to say to anybody who will try it, you don't have to remove the screen. the video cable from the screen to the radio plugs into the carplay unit and a cable from the unit to the radio takes its place. All in all, it wasn't so challenging and worth the effort :) P.S. don't be like me and loosing my mind why carplay wont work ( if Siri isn't turned on you wont be able to acess carplay).

We’re very glad it works! And yes, we also had the struggle with the space of the radio and the unit. But with a bit of trying it works!

Hi there! According to the product description this unit should support Android Auto. Have you actually seen if and how it works connected to an Android phone? If so could you please describe what it's like? Seems that an android phone would be connected through a cable. Where in the dashboard or console and how would this connection be made? Will any audio playing through the normal car system continue to play when switched to this unit? Will the audio from this product simply blend into it? In your video at one pint it seemed that much more was removed than just the dashboard parts directly related to the radio/soundsystem and screen. Is this necessary for the installation? Could you please make a video of how this works for Android? Thanks a lot!

Hi, I don't have an android device to test this out but indeed android auto only works with a cable. The audio will continue to play if you switch between the original interface and the new unit.

(sorry for my english, not good). I bought the carplay from this seller. I did the installation and everything worked normally. Later I installed an aftermarket reversing camera. and the camera was working normally.a friend of mine also got the carplay. my carplay was one of the first (silver color). My friend's carplay was a black one with some differences on the outside. the store told us that only the color changes and that it is the same. my friends carplay had some problems with the software. They sent him new software. He Installed it and everything works fine. With the new software it also has wireless android auto, something that mine did not support (although on the page where I bought it, they write that it supports it). He gave me the software to install it on my own carplay as a new version. And that's where the problems started. I found that it had completely different settings. I searched it and corrected the settings. Everything started working except the reversing camera. When I put the back gear on, the carplay crashes, and it needs to restart to work again.I texted the seller and told him all this. The only answer I got was this: "can not update , the hardware are different" From that moment I sent them endless messages, both on the site and in the mail. Nobody answers me. I beg them to help me, to tell me if there is any arrangement that will solve the problem. Or if the software is not for my own carplay (this is the most likely, the 2 carplay have other differences other than optical), to send me the right software to solve the problem. No response from the seller. I gave them good reviews and 5 stars (although some of what they advertised was not true:wireles android auto) (even when they did not even have installation and operation instructions on the shipment and it took me a lot of messages to get them) I advertised them in my country, I brought them customers who bought from them. And when I needed help they ignored me completely. Where is the support that said offer after sale? It is a product of 200+ euros and has no support or guarantee after purchase. But they mention this on their page. I will consider complaining to AliExpress about the seller. And I will ask for my money back from an unreliable and fake seller.

Do you solve the problem? Is it work with new firmware or not? Thanks

[@saigon66]

Can you make a video how to remove the middle part of this vehicle from A to Z, please? Thanks

[@thediyguys6340]

Hi huyn, You firstly have to remove the part under the steering wheel (at 1:34 you can see that this part is removed). Secondly you will have to put little plates/blades as shown at 1:32 to push at both sides on the same time on both sides. This can be tricky because you will have to feel the metal plates on the inside from the middle part bounce and then pull the middle part at the same time. It will be handy for a person to help you with this. It will take some practice, this was not easy for us easy. I hope this helps! Thanks, The DIY Guys

Hi Marco, the module is under the screen on top of the radio. If you have the access version of the peugeot 308 this installation will not work. You need the touch screen. Thanks, The DIY Guys

Hey, i have the same car but mine doesn't have a screen a lot, if i buy the same product will i be able to connect it?

[@jcmusicdjproducer4688]

@@rolflemans1436 peugeot 308sw you must go to the music settings menu, select the media and set the auxiliary amplification sound to weak or strong, do not forget to validate

[@o0OJulienO0o]

I'm really loving this unit, it gives a second life to my old SMEG. The only "issue" is that to switch to AUX, you have to have sound going through otherwise you cannot select AUX at startup. With Android Auto, you can have it to resume music on connection so there will be sound input at startup therefore you can switch to AUX. I have also found that rather than switch to SMEG to then select AUX and switching to Android Auto, at startup of the car I hit SRC 4 times then press OK, this will switch automatically SMEG to AUX without actually switching to the SMEG. Has anyone got any good tip that they have found with it?

[@Krume79]

Hi friend. I'm having also the sam probem, I don't know how to appear the AUX option at the beginning. The only way is I have to connect the usb flash drive with media to new port and then I can switch to aux. I'm so confused ??? Any suggestions

[@o0OJulienO0o]

@@Krume79 the way I do it is that I have music automatically resuming playing when my Android phone connects. The AUX will then show up.

Hi, nice video. I am playing in my mind to purchase this to get carplay option. Is it possible to do a short video with iphone of daily usage eg. spotify playing, google maps using, calling, how to connect the phone: with usb cable or wirreless, if by cable is the factory input used or extra plug from the new unit ect. to fully understand the range of features and restrictions, thinks that are not working intuitive. This would be appriciated. Thanks
