SYGAV Head Unit Install in My 10th Gen Civic (Super Fancy!)

I love this head unit. I’ve had it for over a week now and really have no complaints. Hope you enjoy the video, I’ll put the link for this product so you can give it a try!

Hi guys, I bought and assembled the SYGAV version 11 myself in like 30 minutes on my Honda XL. To connect the antena to the radio, you just have to connect the actual antena wired that’s already on your car ( there is no need to add the antena… just attach it to one of the bunch of cables😅😅) . However, to have access to the USB port provided by Honda, you will have to pair two different cables( one that will be connected with the usb wired on the Honda, that then will be connected to another cable that have two ends that says USB1 and USB2, connect the cable on the usb1 and the other end will be placed on the infotainment ( to know where it goes, please read the back of the infotainment… right there it says where to add all the cables like USB I believe is section N#6). Pros and cons of the SIGAV infotainment: Pros: - Better sound quality - CarPlay, android and gps accessibility -Capability to watch videos ( when you’re not driving 😅) with pretty good resolution - it reacts pretty well when you touch it. - I mean, it’s like an android tablet with radio and CarPlay - Cons: - there’s like 1-2 seconds delay with the music on CarPlay. I guess there is no way to resolve this problem. There are some cars with the stocked market infotainment that also have that problem. So I wouldn’t bothered with a bit of delay 😅 I would say that that’s the only problem I’ve found so far. It’s pretty expensive but it’s worth it at the same time. I would give it 9/10.

I need to make an update video with all of the pros and cons of it. It’s been an overall solid unit so far though!

Wow this was helpful because I was trying to figure the right camera option bcuz I have a basic sport hatch myself so thank you

[@supahdup1126]

Glad I could help man. Idk why, but even though I went in the settings to disable to right camera, my left signal makes the screen go off when I turn it on. Small little setback, but it is kind of annoying lol

It’s gives you six camera angles instead of three. It’s a good head unit, it’s not perfect but I enjoy it tbh.

Awesome video bro been looking a upgrade and it's been really tough to find a replacement. I have a 2019 honda civic sport Sedan will this head unit work with my ve

[@supahdup1126]

I believe as long as our stock radios are setup the same (which I’m unsure of) that it should work. I’ve never seen the inside of a sedan before though, but I’d assume everything is the same interior wise.

[@Felamine]

How did you mount the navigation GPS antenna? I've heard of some people just sticking it directly to the top of the headunit (with the cable coiled up) and others insist on mounting it on the windshield near the ceiling and running the cable down the windshield trim and through the dash. I would much rather do the former, if it does get a GPS signal that way.

[@supahdup1126]

Mine is rolled up on top of my unit. Never had a problem at all.

[@Hema82255]

Great video. Can you help me out? I bought another screen radio from another Honda civic 2017 that has multiple inputs. Mine was the old version like yours that has 3 inputs wires. I got to connect only 2 wires out of the three, yet, the radio didn't turn on. Where can I get the wires harness that came with your new radio? I believe that's all I want. Thanks in advance. 💓

[@supahdup1126]

Honestly bro, I have no clue. All this stuff came with the radio I purchased 😅.

[@dietterzambrana6952]

Will it work for the models that do come with the touch screen? My screen got damaged and want to replace it with a nice one or an OEM. Wondering if this one will show the right side mirror camera when turning the right turn signal?

[@supahdup1126]

Yeah it should be all the same. There’s a special set of rcas for the cars that already have the side mirror cameras that comes with the radio.

[@TheCapitalConnect.]

Did you use the external mic that came with it? Or do you think its internal mic is good enough? Is there a way to connect it to your factory mic?

[@_thatGuy_87]

^^ bump

[@supahdup1126]

I didn’t install the mic. There’s a clearly marked spot for it on the radio/harness. I usually talk on my phone on speaker, so I didn’t bother installing it

[@TheCapitalConnect.]

@@supahdup1126 Thanks for replying man! I just installed this a couple days ago, any tips on how to fix the slight audio delay? or is it just something minor you have to deal with?

[@jasonwheeler3044]

I saw a bass knob under your steering wheel so I assume you have a subwoofer, did you have to change any wiring for it?

[@supahdup1126]

Everything stayed wired the same. It didn’t affect any of my bass stuff, which I thought it would’ve lol.

Do you still have access to oil life settings on dash ?Some people say they lose that function.Thanks.

Screen brightness/Vividness? the whole point is the screen and its expected to show well in daylight surprising how many of these unit have horrible brightness and resolution....focusing on that is important. How is the screen quality?

I haven’t had a problem with anything like that, only time you can’t see anything is when there’s an obnoxious glare from the sun. That’s unavoidable regardless of what radio setup you run. Also you can adjust brightness of everything in the settings if needed.
