Installing Double Din Radio on Jeep Grand Cherokee WJ | Atoto S8 Pro | Najar Offroad

[@denniswarner2150]

Nice job. As the owner of an 04 Overland, I appreciate seeing all the upgrades you’re doing! I’m ready for your suspension upgrade video next. 💪

[@NajarOffroad]

Thanks man! I’ll try to hurry up with the videos but I’m expecting to have it done by the end of january

[@originalsupermommy]

What color? I have an '02 Overland, Inferno Red Pearl. 😎

[@denniswarner2150]

Mine is a black pearl paint color.

[@armyguy1893]

I'm interested in doing the steering wheel connection as well. Do you know what I would need to do that?

[@brianmuller1643]

I figured out the steering kit. I found a posting on this site. It says it is for the ATOTO A6 but also worked on my ATOTO S8 pro. Basically after you program the ASWC-1 you have change the radio type, and connect two more wires. I have the procedure. How do I get it to you? Volume and pre-set channels work great. forum.xda-developers.com/t/how-to-use-steering-wheel-controls-with-the-atoto-a6-pro.3849621/

He wont show that lol

[@Naferner_Said]

the JVC KVW double din, has the same exact wiring on the head unit.

[@ryanpilgrim3052]

Damn I wish you had this video up when I did my double din I was so confused what I had to cut in the dash when I first did this 😂🤦🏼‍♂️

[@senseconstruction3056]

I did same thing too wish have seen that healer

[@marcinkaluga762]

You cruel beast dude;-) No need to cut bottom part at all (vents cover I mean). Just installed A8 in my WJ. Cut upper brackets only and it fits perfectly.

[@NajarOffroad]

Nice! I guess I got carried away with the cutting 😂

[@TomSmith-yh9ju]

as for the ZJ, the problem with the standard infinity gold system, you work with factory amp for 2 Ohm speakers. With the new radio with 4 Ohm speaker output, you will kill the 2 Ohm components, that you connect with them. For the WJ, you have to make shure, if you connect your new radio to amp and speakers for 4 Ohm.

[@cartertennyson4336]

Where can I find the metro wiring kit

[@robertgolden1080]

Awesome video. This is going to be one of many projects on my WJ. Thanks for sharing.

Hey bro thanks for the video and the technical advice! Just getting to this point! Finally finishing off my IRO lift and axle’s and housings, all gears run through, new seals new 242j remand behind the 4.7. To many parts to list ground up!

[@HooligansMx]

A better option so you don't have to hack anything up is just get the head units with a floating screen then it installs like a single din but has larger than a double din screen

[@gilbertogonzalez2249]

buenas tardes y perdon por escribir en espanol me acabo de unir hace poquito a tu canal y queria preguntarte como modificaste para que entrara el estereo en la parte de abajo, en mi caso puse uno igual pero como entra en angulo no me queda bien y arriba no legga a los seguros y queda abierto, que tendria que hacer para que quede asi como el tuyo y llegue hasta atras mi estereo, de antemano gracias y felicidades me gusta todo lo que publicas.

[@ariesthewarlord1]

Great job on the install. Looks very professional. Do you by chance know what part number is needed to retain the steering wheel volume controls?

[@baconbaconbobacon]

Im getting the kenwood 10.3 inch floating stereo on my jeep, costs a good amount but its really nice and the wireless apple/android play is where its at.

[@diegoramirez7649]

Hey bro just wanna give you thumbs up for the hard work you been putting into the channel, glad to see your getting some stuff sent to you. That WJ is gonna be like a brand new car pretty soon if you keep it up!!!

[@NajarOffroad]

Thanks brotha! Would be a dream to have this Jeep reliable for long trips! Yea pretty cool to see some people reaching out to me 👌 never would have thought anybody would be reaching out tbh 😂

[@diegoramirez7649]

@@NajarOffroad Yeah like I’ve mentioned on your comments before, my WJ has been sitting for like about a year already, needs some engine work but I wanna do it right and get it 💯 to be able to rely on it for long trips. But just so short on time to actually work on it. But keep it up bro!!!

Doing this tomorrow, got the same install kit and an Atoto double din. This video will help tons.🤘

[@NajarOffroad]

Nice brotha! So far I still really like the stereo! Love the CarPlay

[@drak0n420]

Not as much to cut really from what I thought. I may put this on my list to do before the summer then.

[@NajarOffroad]

It’s not to bad! I would suggest a multi tool like the Milwaukee I used

[@RaisingAwesome]

Just for info - my kit says not to cut the bottom at all - cut the top plastic frame as the instructions show. Don't cut into your vent ducts.

[@NajarOffroad]

You’re not cutting the ducts themselves you cut the plastic on top of the ducts

[@spasmarinov5541]

Страхотно видео. Много подробно и добро описание на детайлите, и реда на действие. Резултатът е супер! Палец на горе! :)

[@adriand9599]

Im so glad you did this i have a double din stereo and bought the same kit i didnt knw how to put the vents on the other dash

[@nebulousJames12345]

When I go to that link for the radio, it looks like the pictures are a floating model. What is up with that??

[@NajarOffroad]

Seems like that have an updated version I think the one I have isn’t sold anymore. I’m not sure why because the radio has been great for me!

[@noskciD447]

Did your Jeep have the infinity system with amp? Wondering if you experienced the 'no sound' issue when swapping out head units. Also, the Binizie install in Chris's jeep have the infinity system? Both look fantastic and curious as to those details. Last request, what part number for the pioneer rear speakers did you end up going with?

[@NajarOffroad]

Mine does have the infinity sound system. Chris does not. I don’t remember the speakers were on sale for like $60 at Best Buy. Main thing is connecting the blue wire for amp if you have the infinity system

[@ANCASEY]

Where did you get the lights on the license plate...where the link

[@NajarOffroad]

Those lights are amazon ones. I recommend looking into Lasfit Pod lights super bright and affordable

[@jsprankel4712]

Hey there! So, it's been a year since you installed this radio. What do you think of it now?

[@ivanflores6958]

Hey man I'm having trouble with my wj installed my flip out Dual Estero and now my locks and windows dnt work neither my AC

[@shanekemmer5055]

Nicely done, do you have the infinity amp and have you done anything different with it?

[@NajarOffroad]

Yes it does 👌 haven’t done anything with the amp

[@shanekemmer5055]

@NajarOffroad I think I'm going to go single din with a 9" screen so I don't have to do all that work to my vents and I can keep my nice Mohagany wood trim. Any suggestions?

[@martinlopez669]

Everything explained well and done with detail. Awesome video bro 😎

[@NajarOffroad]

Thanks brotha! Took a while to install but well worth it!

When you cut into the air vents did you have to use abs plastic to close the gap opening so ac or heat doesn't blow onto the double din???? I would like to see more detail video of how you trimmed it ? Because I'm buying a 2004 Jeep Grand cherokee Laredo tomorrow

[@NajarOffroad]

Hey man! So the plastic you are cutting is kinda like support tabs you’re not actually cutting into where the air flows

Tnx for nice vid. But i dont know which screen size i need to buy?. Why is some 2 din screen 7 inch and some 9 or 10.1 Which one will fit in the frame? If some could explane tnx

7 inch I believe will fit good

Since the head unit has its own steering wheel control module do you need the 3rd party or can you connect directly?

[@NajarOffroad]

Make sure you connect the amp cable I believe it’s a blue one? I have another install video of a radio watch that one I think we also had something to do with a link and brown cable might be different by year 2001 we had the pink brown cable. 2002 we had a blue cable that had to be connected from our experience

@@NajarOffroad awesome! ill definitely check out the video. And yea the blue, pink, and brown are not hooked up. Also a 2001. There was a black wire I had to plug into the factory Amp plug, which made it come on. Does the blue also go in that plug? I can send a pic to your fb page to show you.

No the vent has a plastic piece on top like reinforcement and you cut that extra plastic doesn’t do anything. The ac ducts are still in play and working normally
