How To Install Radio in Mazda BT50 Stereo Replacement 2012 to 2017

See The Kits: goo.gl/UcGWtR
We show you everything from removal to installation in this complete DIY guide on how to upgrade your Mazda BT50 stereo. Note that this kit can replace both the nav and non nav version but BT50 vehicles with a original touch screen require the top panel hole to be filled.
The kit is customise and prepare prior to installation using a cloth tape by TESA. All our kits come prepared for installation just simply follow the video :D

Videos like this is why I pay for internet. Thank you very much. I’m a very happy customer!

[@peterwaterton7016]

Wow, extremely informative, step by step. Why can’t everyone else be like this guy? 👍 10 out of 10

[@wezmucadam1075]

Used this to do my BT50 today, video is spot on and very informative 👌 just remember to delete your phone Bluetooth off the old unit otherwise it will continue to pair with the old unit every time you turn your car on 🤘

[@braz0023]

Any way to fix this without re installing the old radio and deleting the Bluetooth connection? I’m having this problem. Thanks

[@bradscott6861]

Same here having the same problem

[@PlusSpec]

​@braz0023 can't you simply delete the old connection on your phone?

[@jeffreyfielding3875]

Got to be the best video I've seen,he didn't miss a trick

[@msr358]

That is a great setup and an excellent instructional video, well done! I ordered one of these and fitted it last week. Mine was a 2014 XTR so had the factory GPS already, so a few extra cables not shown on this video. The fit went quite well, very neat outcome. Certainly better looking and more modern than the standard setup. Still working out how to operate the Kenwood 8019s but all in all, worthwhile. Thanks Carbon Car.

[@l2andom]

Hey mate not sure if you still browse youtube, but what did you do with the extra connectors for the top screen? I have a pink one and black one along with the blue gps one. I have a 2014 XTR as well. Unless I was sent a different harness.

[@msr358]

@@l2andom G'day bloke; the top screen actually crapped out very shortly after installing the new head unit, as is common on this model. So the various connectors are just sitting in there living their best life... I looked at installing a Garmin GPS in the slot where the old screen is but really not much point when the head unit has CarPlay. Instead I installed a ScanGauge II in front of the dead screen. I reckon the new ScanGauge III would just about fit perfectly in the slot where the dead screen is, just can't be arsed changing it.

[@l2andom]

@@msr358 Thanks, that's actually a great idea.

[@Chris-mi1uu]

Just installed this unit and saved a lot of time because of this video very detailed. Outstanding effort guys I will be upgrading my other cars with you as well.

[@MrKyleDD]

Just note when you're running cords down the A pillar, depending on your model you may have airbags in that area. I don't know if the later Mazdas do? But my 2015 subaru outback does, and when I went to run a cord down the A pillar connecting to my dashcam a friend of mine reminded me that if I have a crash that A pillar will need to come out, and the airbag will need to inflate.... You don't want any kind of cords obstructing airbags. In my case I could've copped a bruise to a passengers face, but if you've got a cord that's actually wired in somewhere hard it could make the airbag not come at all. Of course, if there's no airbags in the later models then disregard this.

[@russellpickering2501]

yeah, they sound good but if you have a problem or ask them a question, they go missing, they charge heaps for their prepared looms but don't have after sales service.

[@andrewhurren4937]

So well presented. Certainly consider doing this. Thank you

[@duncancampbell9742]

This is brilliant- thanks. Do you know what would be different if the original is the Nav version ?

[@andrewtheo9026]

This is great Anything on how to have carplay and iphone mirroring on a OEM 2008 Mazda CX9 screen ?

[@stevegpsych68]

Very well done! Thank you.

[@mortennielsen4021]

Great video, thx about the reverse buzzer for the reverse sensors is that originally in the removed radio unit?

[@shhd70]

Very good installation

[@BIGT8108]

is there kits for the 2013 nav system can we have a bit of an explanation on why it wont work and can i purchase a second hand screen without the slot for the memory card and then just plug and play?

[@BDL090754]

Thank you so much guys, Excellent informative video

[@courtssssssss]

hey there, I’m hoping with any luck you see this and can help me! I’ve installed this kit in my 2014 mazda bt50 and followed everything in the video except the top screen hasn’t reset into the date and time only. (it’s still displaying the old radio and settings that come standard with the old stereo), I’m confused as to why mine didn’t change, can you please help me? 🙏🏼

[@l2andom]

Having the same issue, i have a 2014 XTR.

[@markstephenson7988]

Lovely.. i like how you guess if there are 4 screws or 5 on the vents.. that shows that this is not rehearsed and you totally nailed it!! If you don't mind please share your e-mail

[@morneprenn5228]

Hi Awesome video. Will this work for the 2018 model BT 50? Or any other recommendations

[@ThatAdelaideGuy]

I've wired up my reverse camera like you demonstrated but it doesn't automatically switch to the camera when I put the car in reverse. I get a video signal when its in reverse and I manually switch to the camera.. any ideas? Kenwood DMX9720XDS and Gator G55CL

[@georgezerial8604]

a little help here please, fitting new head deck on a 2016 Freestyle. All good with wiring except that there is NO accessories +12v to be found anywhere. Not in the dash, not in the old wiring loom, not in the dash fusebox nor engine bay fusebox. I have connection otherwise. Going mad trying to find this elusive power tap. ANY help here appreciated.

[@clintongrahambotes1983]

You guys are awsome thanks so much

[@brett3988]

Hey mate. Nice info, but why does this not apply to vehicles with satnav? I don't use it anyway, can I just apply the same theory to my piece of crap as well?

[@Jimbos21st]

This guy is awesome. God Bless.

[@klakayp9433]

great video,whats the biggest size screen compatible

[@AutoChimpElectronics]

Double din size which is 180mm wide or 7" corner to corner.

[@jimarmstrong1120]

I would suggest a Dremel or similiar to neatly cut the plastic dash parts

[@johntangatataia672]

So even if you wanted to... You can't change a head unit in a 2011 Mazda bt50 XT UP?

[@TheAUSSIECLINT]

Great video. Is that the aerpro kit.

[@jakeharnish1810]

If you already have a reverse camera in the rear vision mirror does it still work. I’m sure it would or do you have to buy the the extra camera option

[@jrsubs]

Superb video, clear and informative. You didn't mention the steering wheel controls - is this included?

[@klarkodio]

Mic can be fitted in original mic location

[@Severe2jz]

What do you do if i have a polaris system in my 2015 bt50? The video says 2012 on but i feel like is should say 2012-14? My unit has no hole up the top

[@Joseph0044]

Are you guys going to receive more stock soon?

[@edgardcoreas]

My frens i have a problen whit my mazda bt 50 can u help me please. The problem is with the glow plugs, the system lights up fine, everything works fine, but when the car starts up and is stable, the glow plugs light up again and it's burning them almost weekly. So I can't find what to do The local mechanics. They tell me to change spark plugs every so often and I don't understand.

[@boostego1268]

Very useful video for detailing what’s involved with going double DIn. Great tips from a professional.

[@klakayp9433]

hey mate ive got the 2014 model with the gps already in the top screen will this still work for that set up?

[@ericwood1736]

What’s different between the gps unit and non gps

[@AutoChimpElectronics]

The GPS models have Garmin built in the NON-GPS version use Apple CarPlay & Android Auto to navigate.

[@Narcissistic74]

What if you have a 5' screen with navigation for ranger.

[@AutoChimpElectronics]

Ranger is different kit see our PX1 Ranger video.

[@Narcissistic74]

CarbonCarSystems saw the video but all the fascia kits are for 4.2' non nav models but still can use it but covers more of the screen I suppose.

[@AutoChimpElectronics]

it just covers more of the screen but you can disconnect the screen also and just let it be dark as the parking sensors still work and all the info you need will be on the new unit anyway.

[@Hardtailcartel]

Hi, is melting the usb surround in the glovebox the prefered method over cutting the usb cords plastic as with the PX ranger mk1?

[@AutoChimpElectronics]

Depends on situation some of the USB plastics in the car are too narrow as opposed to wide so sometimes widening the car part works. Others we try to just clip the cable. Both work neatly.

[@Danny-px3sv]

Are you still selling these kits?

[@arianraymalintad6140]

Hey bro, how can I order the power harness with the steering wheel control?

[@RodrigoRiquelmecarrillo]

Donde puedo comprar ese bisel ?

[@isse4687]

[@shhd70]

Hi how can I order that please 🙏

[@user-wp1xk7hm7t]

Thanks for the video. I installed myself and the head unit is not turning on. Found that the red feed cable(acc+) is not sending signal. What should I do?

[@xftexute]

Do the steering wheel controlls still work?

[@AutoChimpElectronics]

Yes.

[@Abuyousaf786]

[@slylockdefox246]

Hi where can I order this from? I want to upgrade

[@AutoChimpElectronics]

[@DarkOwning]

When you change the radio, where you hear the beep sound of the rear parking sensor?

[@thesurcouf]

Had the same trouble. Installed a new unit but I lost the parking beep. I took my car to two separate repair shops and they couldnt fix it

[@DarkOwning]

I fixing it, you need buy a special adapter to hear the beep code

[@thesurcouf]

What's the name of the adapter?

[@DarkOwning]

carboncarsystems.com.au/shop/installation-accessories/autochimp-stereo-install-kit-for-mazda-bt50-2012-to-2017-ac-bt50-kit/ I install a pioneer radio kit and working fine

[@thesurcouf]

Thanks, tho I can't really tell which one is the adapter.
