That’s the exact same interface as my $150 Amazon radio in my civic…. And you paid how much???

[@JessyWorld]

I would like to see that Amazon radio if you could upload it on your KZbin , maybe I’ll be shock as you if it’s somewhat similar to my radio👌🏽 please keep us updated when you upload it

[@dmsndy]

@@JessyWorld I commented before watching the entire video. Some of it is similar. My Amazon radio also uses ZLink for wireless CarPlay but your has more options and features.

[@dmsndy]

I’ll see if I can get a clip tomorrow

[@JessyWorld]

@@dmsndy looks like a pretty good radio 👌🏽it might not be similar to Linkswell but sure has it similarities , keep us updated on how responsive and reliable your device is since I’ll be making an update video on the Linkswell radio

[@dmsndy]

@@JessyWorld I’m not expecting much for $150😂. I came to your video because I’m looking to upgrading the one in my 14 Silverado. I just don’t want to spend that much😬

[@Huffster1984]

Your video is the reason I just ordered this gen 5 unit from the same place you did, clean and took Chevy out of the equation for the stereo stuff, my original just recently went blacked out! Thanks for uploading

[@JessyWorld]

Thanks for the feedback! Glad that this video helped out 🔥

[@jessesanchez2342]

Radio looks awesome 👍👍👍

[@StellsBellz]

Good shit boys. Nice to see it all working.

[@JessyWorld]

🔥🔥🔥

[@wallheadkdir]

As soon as I had a question, you answered it I'm going gen 5 baby right on for the video🤘

[@JessyWorld]

I’m glad this helped 🙏🏽

[@michaeltippins563]

What’s the link to buy it? I have the same Chevy

[@springof-wf8vy]

Shout out you and Henry from Texas

[@JessyWorld]

Shout out to people from Texas 🙏🏽🔥

[@springof-wf8vy]

Gracias carnal 🙏🏽👍🏽

[@StoneyBurq]

I love it! Just think that silver trim is throwing me off

[@lawnmoose]

That's sick. I want one.

[@JessyWorld]

Thanks 🔥

[@eortega22]

Jessy awesome video, you almost have me convinced to buy one! Lol Can you do a video focused on audio adjustability (if features are available)like eq, high pass filters, subwoofer controls, and touch on sound quality with the radio vs factory? Thanks brotha. Saludos from Texas!

[@IFounditonAmazon]

I think I hooked it up the same way. Between this video and the instructions manual on linkswell. I have no camera signal though. Hooked the RCA up to the face camera input. I see lines that move with the steering wheel but not the camera view. Also what usb do I use to plug my phone in to support Apple CarPlay? The spare one under the dash? I’m in menifee thanks bro

[@springof-wf8vy]

You work for your money so you deserve to buy it

[@JessyWorld]

Thanks brother 🙏🏽🔥

[@springof-wf8vy]

No problem carnal

[@MikeBMW]

I had a "professional" install mine but I had to reinstall it afterward. It's really not that difficult. Fortunately, the "professional" did hook up the steering wheel controls and the GPS sensor properly - not so much with the mic. Just a few fixes on my end but, dang, this can be done in a day, properly, with a bit of patience. When I saw you getting under the glove box, I figured you guys are way ahead of my installer, as I had to correct that on my own. Still, once installed properly, it's awesome!

[@JessyWorld]

You’re definitely right , if you had experience on installing radios , this is a piece of cake , luckily I had my buddy Henry to do this type of job 🤝

[@MikeBMW]

@@JessyWorld always great to have a buddy help out! Time to hook up those steering wheel controls? This part ain't easy.

[@JessyWorld]

@@MikeBMW thank you brother 🙏🏽 good luck 👍🏽

[@MikeBMW]

@@JessyWorld Mine are already hooked up, one of the things my installer got correct. I was thinking of yours. Did you get the steering wheel controls hooked up yet?

[@JessyWorld]

@@MikeBMW it all function properly 👍🏽 the gen 5 had an easy connection to wire the steering wheel , if you look at the video it’ll show you the location where to plug , hope the video helps you out

[@lmontano1]

I have a couple of questions. Does the HVAC come on when you do a remote start? Does this radio maintain the HD part of the OE radio?

[@melvinarnell6833]

I have the Gen4+ from linkswell on F150. So far there are pros and cons. i had mine in for almost a year. I had issue with bluetooth and then used a custom firmware. It worked for a while, but now the same issue. Overall from coming from the stock 4in dash to the android tablet it still good. If you know how to add headrest screen with a good video please make a video. Mine has hdmi output, but havent seen any support hdmi with a good screen. Also trying to hook up a xbox or get videos on usb to play on trip with the family. Good video let me know if you want more info on the firmware. I did my install myself.

[@JessyWorld]

Thank you for the feedback 🔥

[@97JoMiller]

couple questions, can you use the car play usb cables from the center console or did you have to connect with a usb cable hanging from your dash? Can you use the factory back up camera hookup so you can still see when you turn the wheel the lines move with you or do you have no choice but to use the yellow RCA cable for your backup camera? How well does the HVAC controls work? And can you turn off the military time and change it to 12 hour time like most people use. Last question, does all your audio stuff still display on the cluster still? I thought I read that it doesn't.

[@JessyWorld]

Unfortunately you have to use the usb to connect directly to CarPlay , when I connect to my console the radio sends a message to connect to their connection for CarPlay , the back up camera function the same just the lines guide is thru their program (personally I didn’t like how they looked so I just disabled them ) yes you can change military to 12 hour time , plus if you phone has that set then it’ll automatically put 12 hour time thru CarPlay , the audio music won’t display on the cluster since you’re removing the computer that powers the oem radio (that’s the o my downfall I have with the unit ) but overall worth every penny

[@SLlM4]

You guys check out the T-Style radio put out by Workshop 12? Seems like a pretty decent deal.

[@shawnh7570]

Sweet 👍🏿

[@JessyWorld]

Thank you for the feedback 🔥

[@robertmccausland5739]

reading the reviews and manufacturer's FAQ's. says the Chevy version does not support Sirius/XM radio. thought I heard you say that you were looking to retain satellite radio. does your satellite radio work?

[@G71ish]

Jessy how did you do it to keep the wifi? I have the same truck with wifi just wondering if I have a do something different to get wifi for the Gen 5?

[@compitacris]

Looks sick. Where is your boy that connected it at?

[@paulovichd8092]

good afternoon, connect one almost the same but it continues to connect to the original interface of my silverado and no sound is heard that could be connected wrong

[@jamesgoodwin894]

Can you put a video of the a/c i have dual a/c and would like to see how that works before ordering. Also i can just use my phone as a hotspot for netflix and everything?

[@parkerj7461]

Do your steering wheel buttons still light up at night?

[@jonathanhamilton7047]

How do you get the gen 5 has it not came out yet it doesn’t have a check out option

[@HappyCookies-ds6ei]

I have a problem with one of these stereos, I only get the reverse logo, could you help me?

[@garyschenck6271]

Okay just heard you say where you got it from

[@alain5454]

That shit is sick

[@JessyWorld]

🔥

[@dan4X41]

Can we get an update on this?

[@homercan2]

I don't think I was paying attention, does it use the OEM GPS and mic/speakers for calls?

[@JessyWorld]

Unfortunately you’ll have to use the microphone that comes with it , and it’ll come with its personal gps Athena also

[@terrydill8592]

How does the wifi work as in where does it pull signal from?

[@arturohernandez2548]

I'm looking for the harness for the same sterio

[@luisjramaya7105]

Hey bro did you got the module to make the boss system to work let me know so I can buy it off from you

[@eclecticgentleman]

Awesome install, Henry knows his shit and does clean installs. I do have a question if you know. I have the Bose system, I know Henry showed the wires for the Bose but can you confirm the Bose system will work or if I need to buy something extra to make it work. Thanks

[@JessyWorld]

No need to buy extras , the radio came with all the cables if I had the Bose system , like I mentioned before once everything is done with wiring , don’t forget to go to the settings to let the system know you have dual climate control and Bose system so it could identify everything in your truck 🛻

[@eclecticgentleman]

@@JessyWorld thanks brother

[@Techangler65]

Have you installed this type radio in a Silverado with the Bose system? I have and the rear speakers aren’t working. Wondering if anyone else has had this issue

[@JessyWorld]

I heard if you have the Bose system , the cables are more complex , do you have the gen 5 Linkswell or the gen 4?

[@Stop_the_cap311]

@@JessyWorld I also heard the same thing. I have a 16 silverado with the Bose system and I want to buy this for my truck as well.

[@JessyWorld]

@@Stop_the_cap311 definitely the Gen 5 Linkswell promotes that they have the updated cables to easily connect to the Bose system, I don’t have much info about the Gen 4 Linkswell but heard a lot of complaints on that model

[@joshsmithjoshrocks]

Question: If you have the Bose system, when you upgrade to this, you have to use their “Bose Bypass Kit.” Does this make the factory subwoofer stop working?

[@JessyWorld]

When I bought it from ADC mobile website , it’ll tell you on the page that the gen 5 should have all the connections ready for you and also it gave me options to put add-ons in case I had more stuff to function well with the radio

[@PoisonShot20]

Só this will work on my 2014 Sierra with Bose sound system? ! My truck has bucket seats, with floor console and also possible to keep the CD player?

[@JessyWorld]

@@PoisonShot20 possible the cd player would not work , since it’s a android power system

[@dacoda8220]

How does handle the heat of summer time?

[@viralvideostrending5782]

how you like it? i seen videos that say its no bueno.

[@jondelarosa2296]

Where did you order from??

[@michaeltippins563]

What’s the link to it and does it have Netflix

[@user-ko8oz9ry1r]

Planning to get that stereo, but my truck doesn’t have the seat warmer where can I get those at because the stereo comes with those little holes left and right

[@user-ko8oz9ry1r]

The silver part left and right

[@user-ko8oz9ry1r]

The trim

[@johnnybravo2985]

What is the difference between gen 4 and gen 5, i did some research and nothing stands out as different between the 2

[@JessyWorld]

Only difference gen 5 carries applecarplay wirelessly and with gen 4 you need to connect a cable to your phone , but the radio is really all the same

[@user-ko8oz9ry1r]

Where you got the trims at

[@josecontreras1237]

do the usb cables that u installed to unit charge your phone when connected

[@JessyWorld]

Yes it does and also connects to android auto / apple CarPlay if you have it in your phone

[@user-mp9rd4hg8b]

Any difference between the Chevy and GMC? I have a GMC Sierra 2500 Denali

[@JessyWorld]

Definitely should work the same , I believe they have the exact oem radio , but for sure check out a video and compare to just double check 🫡

[@user-ko8oz9ry1r]

Where you got that at

[@dontknowdad4039]

Would this work with a Tahoe?

[@HeyAllWhatsUp]

Everybody do yourself a favor and skip the first five and a half minutes

[@alangutierrez3612]

The speed limit sign wont work since i installed it, anyone else having that issue

[@isidrosevier1125]

$1500 seems like a good deal with how much plug and play it seems to be. Could be a pain in the ass to hBe to splice all those wires.

[@JessyWorld]

Thanks 🙏🏽

[@garyschenck6271]

Hey put a link where you got that from plz. Don't wanna buy from scammy folk

[@pat14lang]
