Installing A Touch Screen Radio In My 9th Gen Civic Si!

[@acevedohiram]

Nice, I did this last year. Got mine for 200. Love the hdmi feature.

[@Lowgz]

Nice! I still need to wire it to where the back up cam shows on my big screen!

[@acevedohiram]

@@Lowgz it would be nice for that to work too lol. Mine hasn't bothered me enough to try to fix it. If we could get the fuel economy info to show only on the touchscreen, then I'd be 100% happy with it. At least if you upgrade later you'll be able to keep the carbon bezel! I don't think our stock camera is super high quality. It is 8 years old haha.

[@Lowgz]

@@acevedohiram hahah yeah I agree! I've never had a back up camera until this car, but the small screen that has me squinting to see what's behind me bothers me lol

[@congestedgoblin2575]

This dude is 1000% in the military in the dorms lol

[@Lowgz]

Exposed me like that lmfao

[@edgars6081]

Was debating not getting a 2013 just cause of the screen and you just sold me haha thanks man.

[@edgars6081]

Also we’re u ever able to mirror your phone to the display?

[@Lowgz]

Same man! I never liked the 14-15’s, but I did love the touch screen haha. Also there is a way to get it to mirror my phone, I need a couple adapters so I never bought it because I don’t really need all that

[@lvasiescu]

Did you ever manage to reroute the camera to the new screen? Got an android radio and that's the only thing that doesn't work ...

[@Lowgz]

@@lvasiescu I haven’t even tried. I know there’s a wire on the imid that you have to tap into and route it to the screen and pin it. But that’s all I know I’d check out the Facebook groups

[@lvasiescu]

@@Lowgz I was afraid of that, might be a bit too much work for it ... Thanks.

[@Lowgz]

@@lvasiescu I agree. No problem!

[@JoseAlexanderSantillan]

I did this swap on my 13 Si also. The handsfree buttons on the bottom left of the steering wheel don't work for me. Do they work for you? Everything else works fine. For the reverse, you'll need to rewire it from the harness on the iMid to radio harness. I forgot which pin it is but there's a diagram of the pin layout on the 9thcivic forum.

[@Lowgz]

My buttons work! I’ve been planning to wire the reverse for a bit. Need to get on it haha. Thanks man!

[@JoseAlexanderSantillan]

Wonder why mine don't. I'll have to do some more research.

[@Lowgz]

@@JoseAlexanderSantillan yeah man idk. Also I noticed I can’t set backgrounds on my imid now

[@JoseAlexanderSantillan]

Backgrounds on the iMid still uses the usb port inside the armrest. That wasn't affected on mine when I swapped headunits. I just reviewed the wiring diagram, there's another 24pin connector for the touchscreen headunits that has all the camera wiring, both for reverse and lane watch. It seems that's all it's used for, so if you want the review camera on the radio then you'd have to rewire the correct wires from the iMid to that connector. Here's the link with the diagram for 14-15 head unit. It's connector J(24P) 9thcivic.com/forum/threads/2014-civic-display-audio-pinouts.16304/

[@Lowgz]

@@JoseAlexanderSantillan thanks man! I appreciate you

[@SeaofThieves_7]

kinda late but did all the plugs connect onto the new one? one harness wire couldn’t connect to any of the available plug spaces on the back of the radio, but everything is working fine.

[@maniac1628]

It’s for the phone controls on the steering wheel and for the phone dock you can still charge it but it won’t be able to play music from the usb you can still use Bluetooth for music it’s also for the radio clock I’m trying to find an adapter harness I’m not in a rush everything else is working

[@josephdanielgalindoizquier4879]

Bro i just upgraded on the same car but i cant figure out how to activate the amp, y play music and doesn’t make ant any sound, could you help me? 😫

[@CGNLEvolved]

nice, def better than the non touchscreen!

[@Lowgz]

For sure! I’m loving it so far!

[@CGNLEvolved]

@@Lowgz That's wuzup man

[@slayerdef2]

Hey bro does Apple CarPlay work with this

[@SuperLefty35]

Does your phone and stuff still work then?

[@Lowgz]

i dont have the hdmi ports, i didnt want them but it can definitely be accomplished

[@kid_wond3r170]

Does it have car play ?

[@y.m.ar6427]

Looks really cool , I want to do the same to my 13 Si , question do you put You’re car vin or the vin from the car you got the radio? Ty .

[@Lowgz]

It’s definitely worth it! Also I put my VIN and it worked!

[@y.m.ar6427]

@@Lowgz thank you very much .

[@maniac1628]

I put my vin number in

[@waittiliwakeup]

Was this straight plug and play? I have a 13 with navigation but it plays no sound to the speakers 😞

[@Lowgz]

It was straight plug and play yes, but like I said in the video it doesn’t play my reverse cam on it. But steering wheel controls still work :)

[@glenw9048]

Didnt need to buy any wire harness for the swap? I have an 13 FB6 that I been wanting to upgrade

[@Lowgz]

@@glenw9048 nope just bought a non Navi head unit from a 14-15 Si! :)

[@glenw9048]

@@Lowgz still have function of the usb port under the arm rest?

[@Lowgz]

@@glenw9048 no android function. Also usb doesn’t work

[@delaliekpeh2904]

Hey I know its been awhile but do you know how many wires actually fit for this to work?

[@nyyankees0110]

Ever got the reverse cam from the imid to the radio?

[@Lowgz]

not yet havent messed with it but it seems fairly simple

[@MADBOOLJDM123]

I’m thinking of a getting a android screen for my car, if I install the screen how would I control the mmid screen for example if i had to reset tyre pressure light or change the time?

[@Lowgz]

Sorry for the late response it got filtered as spam. I’m sure they have adapters and such. I’ve never done the android screen but I know plenty people that have. Check out the 9th gen civic group on Facebook!

[@ianmorales5500]

How do you upload wallpapers and stuff ?

[@Lowgz]

It’s pretty simple. Try YouTubing/Googling it

[@BerttPal]

Is this the non navigation radio? Picking one up for my 2012 Si. I found two versions. One touch screen with Navi and one without.

[@Lowgz]

It’s non Navi. I heard the Navi’s don’t work if you do this swap

[@BerttPal]

@@Lowgz thanks man!

[@Lowgz]

@@BerttPal no problem! Hope that helped! :)

[@JonahLongworth]

Was there any kind of wiring you had to do?

[@Lowgz]

nope! just plug and play

[@JonahLongworth]

@@Lowgz I have a 2013 si and I kinda want to do this if I could ever afford it

[@Lowgz]

@@JonahLongworth trying to find the unit was super hard, especially one that was cheap! People want $300+ for these right now..

[@JonahLongworth]

@@Lowgz yeah I’ve looked around and they’re all around 300

[@Lowgz]

@@JonahLongworth just keep an eye out man. You’ll get one cheap!

[@EDCBRIXX]

where did u get it

[@SeaofThieves_7]

so all u need is a 2014-15 with non navi? does it matter what p/n u get or it just has to be non navi?

[@SeaofThieves_7]

or does it have to be from an si if you have a 13 si?

[@Lowgz]

As long as it’s non navi I’m pretty sure it’s plug and play. Mine was from an Si just to be safe. Idk about base models

[@brandonechevarria9012]

Fuck I got a Navi one just not and can’t past a screen

[@joseanguiano9196]

Hey bro quick question?

[@Lowgz]

What’s up?

[@joseanguiano9196]

Did all the wire from the back fit? I order one but only three of them fit and it turn on but no sound

[@Lowgz]

@@joseanguiano9196 yes everything was plug and play. Are you sure you bought the non navi one

[@joseanguiano9196]

@@Lowgz does those come off the si the non Navi one?

@@joseanguiano9196 some Si’s had navigation. You just have to make sure you get the one without

[@gustavomontano5838]

Aye bro I have found a guy who crash his 15 si and he letting me go to the car and take out all the parts that I need for the radio I was wondering if you can advice me witch cables or parts I would need to take out for my 13 si to work some what good and not waste my money later on

[@Lowgz]

All I got was the radio and it was plug and play. Like I say in the video the back up cam doesn’t work on the big screen but that’s all. It still works on my IMID screen. No special parts just the radio it’s plug and play

[@gustavomontano5838]

You think I should take out the hdmi connection out too?

[@Lowgz]

@@gustavomontano5838 yeah man I would! Idk if it will work but worth a shot!

[@gustavomontano5838]

Thanks bro i appreciate it

[@gustavomontano5838]

Yo bro I have put the radio out for some reason the screen is just white do you know why that can be or how to fix it?

[@slowka]

Can you update the description with the radio part number?Also can you just buy the radio without the bezel, are any other parts needed?

[@Lowgz]

Unfortunately I don’t have the part number. & you can just buy the radio yes. But I suggest buying it as one! No other parts needed.

[@slowka]

@@Lowgz thank you for replying.

[@maniac1628]

You can get the radio without the bezel

[@iCanonKiD]

Hey bro, how do you reset the TPMS or the oil life in maintenance minder with the new head unit?

[@Lowgz]

You have to used the IMID display on the small screen still

[@iCanonKiD]

@@Lowgz but you now use the steering wheel to control the head unit. So how can you still reset it?

[@Lowgz]

@@iCanonKiD the steering wheel controls still work on the IMID. Resetting TPMS & oil life doesn’t change with this touchscreen upgrade
