Installing Eonon GA9463 In a 2010 Mazdaspeed 3 | First Mod

[@GT6SuzukaTimeTrials]

Finally biting the bullet for one of these. The 8" actually has a better processor too than the 9". Also it has Bluetooth 5 instead of 4. So it's better in every way besides screen size. I have a 2012 Mazda 3 with the Skyactiv 2.0L and 6 speed MANUAL and it's a hatchback babyyyyyy

[@robinrai4973]

For future reference if anyone wants to do this, avoid the PX30, it is worse than the 9"'s PX5, it is essentially an updated PX3. The PX5 is quite a bit better than the PX30, and the PX6 is alot better than both.

[@jarrettisaac]

I have this set up already, also FYI, you don't need to install that ugly puffy external mic, the unit has one built in, which works better. Trust me. I also mounted the GPS right under the dashboard to hide it and the signal is the exact same. Just wanted to give you a tip!

[@TheRealMrRoyal]

First time watcher......good overall. I love to try and support new automotive KZbinrs but I don't understand why so many don't get even a small flexible tripod or mount. when opening boxes or showing manuals or installing parts it allows you to not cut that out. And then when your editing, if you are editing, I might think about cutting out some of the times you say the same thing 3 times in a row like with the dual USB adapter. And then 3rd, all the actual "doing" things is cut out. I'm not seeing any of the actual install. Just explanation then end result. Other than that I think your on the right track and I do like the way you explain things and you have a good KZbin voice. I'm less than a month into my first mazdaspeed 3 as well so look forward to your future content. Keep it up!! Edit: was only 8 min in for first comment. ......you keep cutting, in my opinion, all the stuff I wanted to see. Taking apart the console, actual hookup of the unit, adjusting and using the radio for the first time. When your running the wires for the GPS and mic and stuff I'd hoped you were going to show all that part. For an install video you didn't show anything being installed.

[@ArdenAutomotive]

I appreciate the feedback. It’s hard to install things and film at the same time. If I had someone there to film while I installed then it would have been better but I didn’t have that luxury. I tried to explain the best I could afterwards. Thanks for the feedback!

[@carlosKDRHCP1]

I have a 2010 Mazda 3, sedan unfortunately, but I still love the little shit. I was thinking about that 9 inch until I found this video. This unit looks much better in terms of overall look with the interior.

[@hansgruber1946]

At some point I might do a video on my Eonon for my 2007 Mazda3. I'm quite happy with it.

[@michaelcantu1766]

Hey Hans did you ever produce that video install? And if so send the link I have a 2008 Mazda 3 Hatchback

[@MrBossGamer99]

Hey guys I have a ga9463 in my Mazda 3. Yesterday my little sister was playing with the buttons and the system brought up recovery mode, however, the screen froze and I had to turn off the system. Now the system will not turn back on. If I disconnect my car battery and reconnect it do you think that will fix the issue? Also it still lights up around the buttons when I turn on my headlights so I know that it’s not the fuse

[@melmckayiii9139]

Can you show how you hooked up the dual USB port to the radio? I don't have a charger in the storage area, but do have a cigarette lighter that I can remove and install there. But unit only show 1 USB port on the back so was wondering if you used a splitter or what?

[@SAM_Felipe]

Hi Arden, How did you run the video input for your backup camera to your Eonon stereo unit? I plan to put this on my Mazda3. Thank you for the video!

[@ArdenAutomotive]

There was 2 wires that you have to tap into your reverse lights then an input cable that will plug right in to the back of the radio!

[@SAM_Felipe]

@@ArdenAutomotive Thanks Arden. However, I am wondering if you ran your wires through your moldings on the ceiling or floor of your vehicle to get to your stereo unit?

[@ArdenAutomotive]

Yes. I ran all the wires through the ceiling

[@SAM_Felipe]

@@ArdenAutomotive Thanks, Arden. I will try that once I get the unit in the mail.

[@ArdenAutomotive]

If you have any other questions when you get it in then shoot me a DM on Twitter or Instagram

[@SPlRlT_R]

Thank your for your video, can you explain how did you do to make your backup camera working please? Mine just won't show no image when i put the car in reverse.

[@ArdenAutomotive]

I'm not exactly sure how I wired it up since it's been a while and I don't own that car anymore. Look up a backup camera wiring diagram and that should help!

[@SPlRlT_R]

@@ArdenAutomotive Thanks for your answer.

[@awian-pb9hh]

Does it supports displaying song infos on the navigation display. Its so annoying that the stock Bluetooth is to old for my phone and delays audio and doesn't show song infos

[@ArdenAutomotive]

It doesn't show song info in the navigation screen but with the Apple CarPlay or Android Auto it does. You can just use that for that feature

[@IaMPlaceMatt]

When you installed the USB did you have to take apart the center console to connect the dongle and everything? Or was it really just pull the cigarette lighter out and put the USB adapter in? I'd assume to feed the USB from the stereo all the way down through that socket you'd have to remove the trim right?

[@ArdenAutomotive]

You have to take the center console apart. It’s not too hard to do

[@IaMPlaceMatt]

@@ArdenAutomotive Okay cool thanks! And what did you do with the cigarette lighter power cable that connects to the plug did you just leave it out?

[@ArdenAutomotive]

Yep. I just left them hanging in the center console

[@HumbertoCristobal]

How do you like it so far I purchased a kenwood at Best Buy but having second thoughts since this unit is awesome and just plug and play instead of having to buy adapters for this adapters for that and the harness etc.

[@ArdenAutomotive]

I absolutely love it. Theres so much you can do with it. Its pretty much a big Android tablet in your dash

[@HumbertoCristobal]

@@ArdenAutomotive awesome thank you I’m currently waiting for usps to deliver mine have everything apart ready to go 😃

[@raygarcia8111]

Love the Eonon. Looks OEM on my 2013 Speed 3. Works great with the Apple Car Play dongle

[@josephkellehhan2353]

Does it not have Bluetooth?

[@ArdenAutomotive]

@@josephkellehhan2353 It does

[@jb6574]

Didnt 2013 come with touchscreen radio?

[@rubyserrano7764]

hey so i have purchased and installed my radio and and pushed in my wiring in the back as much as i could but i feel like my headunit is not 100% flush with the sides its popping out just a little. is your flush? i unscrewed it again and was trying to push the wires again but its still not flush, its not really bad but wanted to check

[@ArdenAutomotive]

Mine was the same way. Mine was out towards the bottom

[@rubyserrano7764]

@@ArdenAutomotive thanks !

[@domenicmaraschiello3538]

Where did you connect to the reverse trigger wire on the unit

[@ArdenAutomotive]

I believe to the positive wire at the reverse lights or your reverse input in the back of the radio. Its been a long time since I installed it

[@gillharmy]

i installed the same one and the product website says it works with bose systems but my problem is that: #1 the volume when its on 1 even with the eq down low its still too loud to have a conversation and vol1 on this is like vol 13 on the stock one so does this happen to you? #2 does the audio quality sound worse than normal and distorted to you including the bass? #3 does this aftermarket radio have alot of static all of the time to where "low volume" music just sounds terrible due to being drowned out by the static? i had this in for a few days until i just slapped the stock radio back in which sounds a million times better.

[@ArdenAutomotive]

#1 I never had a volume issue. The volume seemed to work like stock for me. I also did not have the Bose system so that could be the difference #2 The quality was completely normal. When it got up to high volumes it was distorted but that could have been the bad stock speakers #3 I’ve heard a lot of people having problems with static but mine never did. Everything worked as it should. Not sure if it’s the difference of Bose and non Bose systems or not

[@frankthabo]

What about the steering controls, how did you connect them...?? I have had to disconnect mine

[@ArdenAutomotive]

I didn't have to do anything with them. Its just plug and play

[@savuthphan2266]

Just installed mine. Everything is working fine except the sound when trying to use Bluetooth. Any ideas? The radio and Apple CarPlay have sound.

[@ArdenAutomotive]

Make sure you have the volume up on your phone and make sure you have the right selected output on your phone. I know you can change the output on iPhone. Not sure on Android

[@chrisbaines9206]

clean speed3 and nice installs.. any idea how to or where to get firmware updates. I have an older unit and would like to update to android 10 instead of buying a whole new unit.

[@ArdenAutomotive]

I'm not 100% sure but check out my latest video. I try to address your question

[@samnin5696]

I’m having some trouble removing the 12V cigarette lighter from my Mazda. Any tips on how you did it?

[@ArdenAutomotive]

There should be two tabs that you push down at the same time and it’ll pull out

[@non-applicabilenon-applica2105]

Are you hearing any kind of background static when you play/go through the radio stations? Also what are you doing for the features that require wifi like google maps etc.. Great video very helpful excited to install mines

[@ArdenAutomotive]

Watch my latest video! I address your questions in it!

[@LuisAlvarez-nv9rc]

Have you solved it? I have the same static problem

[@bryancarter9744]

Can you share link re usb in your 12v outlet?

[@prashantt6684]

I was really lucky that I saw this video a week before I was about to install mine. That USB trick was very neat! Installed the same in mine too. Thanks! Also, the USB with the Android Auto dongle is not working like its supposed to. Will probably reach out to EONON regarding that. Is yours working fine?

[@Arden10j]

Actually mine isn’t either. It worked when I first installed it and now it doesn’t

[@prashantt6684]

I read in a couple of places that factory resetting the head unit helps. I did that and my android auto is working perfectly now. Takes a few seconds to initiate though. I'm looking into getting rid of the wires altogether and will try to get wireless Android auto working on my head unit. Check out the Headunit reloaded app on Google Play Store.

[@ArdenAutomotive]

@@prashantt6684 Watch my latest video. I think I figured out a solution

[@sebastianpenaalzate7616]

i Just bought this, all the features work ok but google maps is awful is extremly low, any advice to solve this?

[@ArdenAutomotive]

I think thats just a problem with the slow processor and lack of ram. My maps is very slow too

[@stevemacphee5375]

Looks nice. BUT I own one and have had to replace it once already. This unit doesn't keep time and Eonon have no idea how to fix it, Google assistant pops up randomly and the radio keeps seeking for a station. Sent countless videos and there tech support finally just stopped answering me

[@ArdenAutomotive]

That sucks.. I have had mine in for almost a year and haven't had any trouble except for it being fairly slow and some apps crash randomly but that doesn't happen that often. The apps only crash once a week or so

[@dustinkaczmarek2106]

So mine says it's not compatible do you know what I should do?

[@ArdenAutomotive]

I would contact Eonon

honestly I prefer the look, the functionality and everything else about the mazda 3 tech package gps.

[@ArdenAutomotive]

Some of us don't have that luxury..

[@Epic-Gamer50]

@@ArdenAutomotive yeah unfortunately neither do I. I probably will have to get an eonon if I ever wanna be fancy. From what I know you probably need to have the head unit to a tech package mazda 3 + gps antenna including the wiring harness as well as an sd card. I’m not entirely sure if 2010s even have the slot for it though

[@MrCRIS2121]

Super 👍

[@davidquintana1664]

? Why in mine is a noise like interference?

I think that's an issue that has been seen if the red/white audio inputs are connected in the wrong ports.
