do these not work on the 2013 a45?

Great job Nathan You will be getting a call soon for a GLA install from a friend of mine Cant wait for my SQ5 to be done

[@abrahamodare2421]

Thanks for putting this video together. Do you have a video for W218?

[@francescopeloi4578]

best video I found about mounting this! very nice work mate! I am going to try this tomorrow. Only thing I am not sure if you avoided connecting the video input on the left because you don't have a OEM retro camera, or because it just work out of the box with the other wires. Also I'd be curious to know why the speaker is not needed, or why they added that in (it confuses me), I guess all cars will have speaker already?! Thanks if you can find the time to answer these :)

[@sansum93]

The speaker is normally for parking sensors as the stock speakers may not work with the unit probably always worth just plugging it in and mounting it anyway and for the reverse camera wire it may need connecting worth testing 1st without connecting then if it doesnt come on there will be a wire within the oem quadlock that is the reverse trigger wire and tap off that hope this helps (not my video)

Super video buddy! CONGRATS! I have a question: my A-CLASS W176 does NOT have AUX or AMI port, only USB, is that a problem for AUDIO or I can do it later in new screen parameters digitally?

[@TheFittingBay]

Thanks! First we might have to activate AUX in engineering mode. if that fails you will need a usb to aux converter

[@borjapm2909]

Is there a setting on my iPhone 12 max pro or a setting on the Android 11 that will fix it?

For anyone having issues with the carplay not connecting sometimes just go to the tablet SETTINGS -> Wifi and connections -> hotspot -> Make sure it's active and on 2.4 ghz. sometimes it's not working in 5 ghz and that's why it does not connect.
