Ooooooooooh its a trash bag hanger!!!! I’ve always wondered what that hook was for. Thought it was to pop open some cold ones.

I didn’t see where you took panel off under steering wheel, only saw you put back on, why did you remove that

I got my head unit all connected and my phone will connect to it but won’t play through the speakers

[@bgivco]

Josh, My 1st go around was with the wrong redi-connect cable(no Sound). Thought my truck was a 7 speaker system when in fact it's 4 speaker. Exchanged for the correct cable & it's working great now. Hope your fix is that easy, Keep working on stuff & thanks for watching!!!!

Did you have to buy a harness and wire it if so what is the best method to connect the wires in your opinion

[@bgivco]

I bought a harness along with the radio, it was ordered from Crutchfield. It was the easiest & best for me. Thanks for watching Ralando !!!

can you help me

[@RossChevrolet]

I have an infinity sound system with amp, do you think this will work good?? Thanks

[@bgivco]

One way to find out, hook it up & try it. If I had to guess, I'd say it's gonna sound awesome brother. Gotta have the tunes, keep working on stuff & thanks for watching!!

[@RossChevrolet]

bgivco when you bought the radio where did you buy the harness, antenna adapter and shell to hold radio? Could you provide me with the links? I’d appreciate it! Thanks.

[@bgivco]

@@RossChevrolet I bought everything (the radio, harness, antenna adapter and shell to hold radio) from Crutchfield. Multiple different installs and never had a problem. Here 's a link to their website, hope this helps!! www.crutchfield.com/S-he0ng0yH79n/

Did you have to buy a wire harness separate or did it come with it?

[@bgivco]

T.Turn, I got the radio from Crutchfield & bought what they called a redi-harness. It was a simple plug & play that worked great. Keep working on stuff & thanks for watching!!

bgivco do you have a link?

[@bgivco]
