Hyundai i30N Amplifier Install (Pioneer GM-D1004) - Cheapest upgrade to sound [Read Description]

[@peterwurst3541]

Its the wrong T-Harness. We need the CT10HY07 right?

[@Tungg_]

CT10HY07 is for the facelift model afaik. I have the pre-facelift one, which needs a different T-harness

[@Crackhonos]

​ @Tungg_ the one in the video description (CT10HY04) is actually not the one that he has in the video. The one in the video has those 3 big vertical grooves in both connectors that goes into the stereo.... CT10HY04 has different pin layout (as seen in the picutre in the link). Correct one is indeed CT10HY07. I have both, learned the hard way :)

[@Tungg_]

@@Crackhonos Hmm looks like you're right. Had to dig through my messages. I grabbed it through a mate for staff price so looks like I had the wrong link saved when I made the video, will update info. Sorry for the confusion!

[@lfk8559]

@@Tungg_ So does the CT10HY07 harness work with the facelift model? Or only the old one?

[@Tungg_]

@@lfk8559 a mistake on my part. All models use the CT10HY07

[@sebek_g]

I dont want to swap my i30N audio, just glad people still do something for others, thanks for the video :)

[@Crackhonos]

Thanks for the guide! I will be doing the same install next week... also for some reason the harness goes only for 5 Euros in my country lol

[@cristocoetzee3635]

Thanks for this video was a great help i also have ordered the amp and patch harness. Is there anything else needed besides the amp and extra harness? Also are you happy with the sound

[@Tungg_]

@@cristocoetzee3635 just whatever was in the video. Sound is much better and stopped that itch to do a complete overhaul of the speakers 😂

[@cristocoetzee3635]

I unfortunately bought with the 04 harness. did not read the comments. have now ordered the 07 harness. just to confirm that the 07 harness works on the pre facelift?

[@Tungg_]

@@cristocoetzee3635 yep sorry for the confusion!

[@YoJJ85]

Timely video bro. My amp and harness are arriving next week and I'll be following your guide. Hopefully not FL same as PFL.

[@Tungg_]

Thanks man! You should be fine, it's a fairly simple process so I hope the video makes it extra easy!

[@YoJJ85]

Did the install. Didn't need to cut the wire in the FL and lost a screw in the dash - hope no rattles lol. Thank you for the vid 🎉

[@petruradu7154]

Is the harness compatible with any pioneer amp? Also, what is the blue wire? I understand why you're cutting it, but what was its purpose in the first place?

[@Tungg_]

It should be, long as it has the same connection as to what I linked. But I haven't tested or seen anyone try any other models of amps for the i30. The blue wire is labelled as 'satellite' if I remember correctly. I'm not 100% sure on its original purpose tbh, everyone just said to cut that HAHAHA.

[@coop8549]

@@Tungg_ satellite wire is basically the wire that provides power even when the car is off

[@300kilowatt]

Thanks for your little tutorial! Everything worked quite well and exactly as described. After the installation I noticed two things: the amp always remains switched on (Blue LED lights up continuously) although the car is turned off and you can even hear the speakers buzzing. Did someone notice the same?

[@Tungg_]

@@300kilowatt ❤️ happy it helped. Can't notice anything from the amp because it's tucked away, no buzzing noises on my end. Did you also cut the cable?

[@mittlerweile]

Do you have a red wire on the connector which goes into the amp?

[@SuperMarrad]

@@Tungg_what was the fix ?

[@Tungg_]

@@SuperMarrad I don't have the same issues, not too sure

[@SuperMarrad]

@@Tungg_ah okay 😄 so you just cut the blue/white wire and everything worked out?

[@lewis8351]

Was this install on the facelift model i30N? Just purchased the 2023 model and wondering if the same t harness youve used will work?

[@Tungg_]

This was for the pre-facelift model. According to a post I saw on the FB group you'll need the CT10HY07 for the facelift. But I'd double check to confirm.

[@Jay-e2o3y]

​@Tungg_ hi jay here thanks for the video could I confirm the harness I need for 2023 i30 n is the Ct10hy07

[@danmaxwell994]

Love the video did you also do a speaker upgrade video

[@Tungg_]

Thanks for watching! Didn't do the speaker upgrade, wanted to see how much of an improvement the amp would give and it's definitely night and day. It's still not as good as my partner's Cerato GT which uses JBL speakers though. I can hear that there is room for improvement by replacing the stock speakers, but for me and my budget this is perfectly fine. My next DIY project is the FL head unit, but the problem is trying to source one!

[@Jay-e2o3y]

Hi thanks for video .can i confirm I need the Ct10hy07 harness for i30 n 2023 model. Having trouble finding it

[@Tungg_]

yep they all use that one

[@Jay-e2o3y]

Thanks enjoy your trip

[@marcustay242]

Did you cut both wires? My amp should be here this week.

[@Tungg_]

Just the one in the video! Good luck and enjoy the audio upgrade!

[@marcustay242]

Just installed and might be a PFL thing because i didnt cut any wires and they were fine actually. Thank you for the video though! Was tons of help!

[@Tungg_]

@@marcustay242 It'll work either way, it's just the popping noise when you switch the car on :)

[@blakey2329]

You do realise that the blue and white wire you cut is the remote turn on wire and I can see in the video that you're amp isn't even powered up so it's doing nothing

[@PickleO]

nice but personally i would be pumping in the vtec

[@ntastic2392]

Anny better pics on how to connect the amp to the harnes, how te power output is connected and the input cabel,😊

[@blakey2329]

You need to cut that blue and white wire and hook it up to an accessory 12 volt power supply

[@mittlerweile]

Even hyundai says to cut it

[@thanhyboii]

nice
