My left ear is really happy with this video. My right one, not so much

[@johnkleiscaraudio]

Hi! Can you elaborate? Have we got our mic settings incorrect on this video?

[@reset1101]

​@@johnkleiscaraudio Sorry if I wasnt clear enough :) I only hear audio on the left channel

[@johnkleiscaraudio]

Thank you. You don’t notice listening back on an iPhone speaker! I’ll test it tomorrow with headphones. We must have had our rode microphones on wrong audio setting.

[@reset1101]

@@johnkleiscaraudio Sure! Im listening to it on my PC and I can definitely notice it :)

[@dhilboy231]

That’s brilliant! How do you get the sensors and climate control to display? Impressive work😍

[@johnkleiscaraudio]

Thanks 🙏🏽 using the proper Kenwood correct interface for this MIB platform gets all the correct integration 👍🏼

[@simonbalaam4296]

Oh and another question. does the USB in the centre consol still connect to the radio?

[@johnkleiscaraudio]

It can do although we have to replace it with the Kenwood USB C connector.

Hello, great video! You mentioned a larger screen option set forward, what units would you recommend that have the same integration? Unfortunately you guys are nowhere near me. How do I order the correct MIB for Seat Alhambra 2016 (same spec and details as the one here? Is there different modules that need to be ordered in addition to the unit?

[@johnkleiscaraudio]

Good Morning! If you want the same integration in the video then the Kenwood DMX9720 would be the unit to go for. Alpine do the Halo range & Pioneer do a 9" version which offers integration but not as seamless as the video shows with the Kenwood. You would need to contact a specialist who has an account with Kenwood as they are the company we buy the correct interfaces from. You will also need an adaptor to retain the original USB and also the original reverse camera if you want to retain this. A good local specialist to you should be able to guide you in what you need. If not make the journey down to us and we'll do it. We get customers from all over the UK and also abroad too.

This looks great. Are there other model options and what sort of price would it be please? Does it also know when the towbar is hooked up?

[@johnkleiscaraudio]

There are a few other options and they will offer slightly different designs and functionality. We fill this is one of the best all rounders. It isn't linked to the towbar at all. Tow bar / rear pdc is seperate from the Kenwood installation.

[@johnkleiscaraudio]

Price will vary depending on what model you go for (and when you go for it) but this solution would be £1250.00

[@sarahsanger4916]

How much does this cost? Thanks

[@johnkleiscaraudio]

Hi, starting price for this package depending on spec of vehicle is from £1150.00

[@garethunderhill]

My 2017 Alhambra has literally got this issue with faulty touchscreen right now, hence finding your video! I'm very interested in this aftermarket set up now I've seen all the standard vehicle bits like camera and sensors work. Is this the best head unit for this car, and/or are there other options with all the bells and whistles this has? Thanks in advance for any info! If I give you a call on your business number, how quickly can you install? Many thanks.

[@johnkleiscaraudio]

Thanks for commenting! We got it to interface well with the factory options which we feel is important. After all you want to leave with the same features, no less! This is one of our most popular stereos but not the only one you can get with full integration like the video shows, Alpine also offer a similar spec’d unit that will do the same albeit slightly different visualisations. There are also other design headunits with a larger screen that ‘float’ in front of the dash like you see a lot in other manufacturers of cars. As for how quickly we can install, varies week by week but we can usually get an installation like this in within 1-2 weeks. Kind Regards.

[@garethunderhill]

@@johnkleiscaraudio thanks! I'll give you guys a call in the morning...

[@saadihify]

is there one with satnav aswell ?

[@johnkleiscaraudio]

Yes you can indeed. Kenwood do the dnx5190, dnx7190 and the dnx9190 that will give you the same integration results
