Hey just so everyone knows a lot of newer head units that have a double din screen actually have a single din body (which is what the Crutchfield filter looks for) so if you filter out single din you'll be missing some of your options. If you want a double din screen then it's better to go to the screen size filter and select all sizes.

Subscribed a few months ago and you inspired me to add a kicker amp and sub to my boat (first time installing). Bought from Crutchfield and the install went perfect and it sounds fantastic! I have been debating if I could handle installing a new stereo in my daughter's 10 year old Lexus - and then I watch this video. looks like I'll be cashing in some of my crutchfield reward points and going for it. Thanks for your informative videos.

Having the unit that low is pointless if plan on using it for navigation. Grom Audio makes a unit that replaced the computer portion of the factory unit and gives it the ability to have wireless android auto and apple carplay. It also upgrades your microphone and can support a front camera along with the factory rear backup camera. I have a 2012 GMC terrain and it works great.

xchimnyx I like how kappas sound especially when properly driven and mixed. Harman creates great gear for sound applications. They own a lot of professional level companies when it comes to sound applications. For what it’s worth, I used a 4x100w @2ohm 4-channel infinity amp pushing the door speakers and a mono 550w @ 2ohm infinity amp pushing the sub. Literally just took the factory amp out of the equation. Problem solved and the combo has been great. Not looking to set any records here I just wanted to enjoy my music again :)

(Gotta 💘 Pioneer durability!). It's currently running two MTX 12's. It switched roles with the Gothic 12 that's currently ran by my favorite nostalgic peice.. The JL Audio 500/1 Monoblock.

I've used Crutchfield a lot in the past. One thing I wish they had were the adapters for the Sirius antenna my car already had. I also added a Pioneer aftermarket head unit with the Sirius adapter, and I thought I was going to have to wire that extra GPS antenna to outside my car. A quick little search on Amazon found me an $8 adapter so I could use the factory sharkfin antenna for my addon sirius adapter. Don't know why Crutchfield doesn't try to sell those, when they have the regular antenna adapters.

How did this make the factory speakers sound before you upgraded? Any problems with the tweeter/mid crossovers because I guess they are crossed at the factory amp. I'm upgrading a 2015 starting with the head unit, will be a few months before I can add dsp/amp/speakers/sub.

The tacked-on look of the microphone always bothers me. In my Fusion I mounted it to the rain-sensor housing to hide it but keep audio pickup quality. I just finished a VW Beetle and flush mounted the mic in the dash next to the radio face so that just the tip of the mic is exposed. It seems to work well and the body is hidden behind the dash face.
@rollingtones1
@rollingtones1 4 жыл бұрын
It is neater but most mics use noise cancellation and echo cancellation and they rely on the holes in the SIDE of the mic barrel to do that. Some mics have 2 or even 3 elements inside them, in a stack. I have tested it both ways and you are better off in terms of call quality to leave the side exposed, usually about 5/8".

Hello. What kind of interface do I need for a 2017 GMC Terrain without the Pioneer system? I really hate these new cars I remember back in the day when you could simply go to any store and find what you needed, now you need all of these computerized gadgets and fittings that you have to order online. Building a system for a car now is way more expensive than before, you could spend a $1,000 just on the head unit installation alone depending on what kind of equipment you buy. But no use in winning about it, if you want it this is what you have to do.

I bought an 07 Tacoma and decided to buy and stay with the W4400NEX. I didn't see a reason to go to the 4500 because of the new weblink thing they had. Also, I have yet to hear if Android Auto wireless was supported outside of Google phones (I have a Samsung) so I'm happy with the 4400. Sadly, the Metra kit that Crutchfield offered was too cheap, pinched the hazard button, and didn't fit. Ended up going with a Scosche. First time dealing with iDatalink so that was a nightmare to work out......

No. Once you install the aftermarket unit, the factory radio is removed and the buttons are not useable, only buttons on the dash panel that work are for the HVAC.

Crutchfield is a really good company a little high on $$ but makes it up with CS and no BS warranty they dont hesitate to make it right and they also have a lot of offers and coupons bought my first pioneer deck in 1998 from them

hey Mark I have a 2011 equinox and it has the hands-free calling with the more basic monochrome stereo. I was always afraid to change the radio because the sound quality is pretty good, and in my experience aftermarket radios don't sound as good with a GM vehicle because of how the oe is designed. Can you use the factory microphones to integrate with the aftermarket hands-free calling and how is the bass response of the new stereo? Your channel is great!

As far as subs go it is all based on the type of music you listen too and most importantly how much air space you have for the enclosure. A single subwoofer will be the most budget friendly and add a surprising amount a low end with the right sub powered adequately in the proper enclosure.

Glad his will help, but do keep in mind that this process is nearly identical for many vehicles, with the specific directions from Crutchfield you are covered for any vehicle where the radio can be upgraded.
