head unit

Aiming to replace my NB1 unit with an aftermarket one, I believe that the white multiplug connector is for the Bose amp system, can somebody confirm, or tell me what it is? Thanks!

Hi All Any suggestions on a head unit that would have Carplay, steering wheel controlls and car autolock without remote control use like my stock setup. The head unit in the 2015 sucks. I know there are old posts about this but hopefully there are new units that fit and provice these 3...

I am tired of the navigation and bluetooth provided by my factory system on my 2012 CX-9 with Nav/Bose/Sirius/Backupcamera/RSES (RES). I have been doing a fair bit of research and summarize it below for others that may be considering this. Please correct anything in my summary that is...

Hi, I have a 2015 Mazda CX-5 GS with a non-Bose radio unit. This model comes with the previous Mazda infotainment unit as all of you know. The thing that I want to know is if it is possible to replace my actual unit with the new one that comes in the 2016 model (Mazda Connect). It is important...

Hello I'm looking to upgrade the sound system in my Protege5, I already bought a pair of Pioneer 6X8 speakers for the front doors, a wiring kit, and a BOSS subwoofer amp for a small 8" kicker in the trunk. What I am wondering though is whether or not the stock P5 head unit is actually part of...

When I connect my I-phone 6 to the USB-in, I have to turn the volume up to get a decent level. If I switch back to FM radio the sound is so loud it blows me out of the car if I forget to cut the volume first. Any way to adjust the relative volume of audio sources? ------------ FYI I have...

Hi everyone, I'm new here so go easy on me. I've read a lot of threads on the aftermarket Pioneer and Clarion head units people have tried, but I'm just not too keen on them. I Googled around and found this product on many sites, sold from China, no reviews that I've found yet...

JVC CD-player with Bluetooth. Fairly straightforward installation. I took out my OEM headunit and cassette deck. The DIN pocket is from a Taurus. The color is the same, but the grain in slightly different than the other plastics, but no one would notice unless you told them. I devised a "mount"...

Hi everyone My car is a Mazda 3 2010 gs 4 doors sedan that I bought used. I am going to replace my factory speakers with 2 pairs of alpine spa 517. The RMS of the speakers are 75 each so I was wondering if it is alright to use it without putting an amplifier because I'm using the factory head...

Does anyone know a good adapter for listening to songs from Apple devices in the car? I know that there are special car adapters for this. Can you recommend any? I was googling and the best reviews for connecting mobie devices has AUX Link car adapter. But before buying it I'd like to get some...

Has anyone here tried doing this on a 3rd-gen Protege? I spent a bit of time yesterday scouring the interwebs for how-to's. I came across several like this (for a Mazda 6) which said to jumper pins 1 and 13 to get a button ("Media" button) to function so you can switch the input to come from...

The stock single-CD head unit in my 2005 Mazda3 is on its last legs: The CD player is skipping and the amplifier appears to be dying. If you have an unblemished 2004/2005 stock (non-BOSE) head unit in good working order that you'd like to get rid of for a decent price, I would be very...

Per my other post about audio problems, I am concerned that the stock head unit in my 2005 Mazda3s (non-BOSE) may be on its last legs. Here is my question: If I replace the head unit with another OEM HU, does the new unit have to be programmed by a dealer before it will work? (One online vendor...

Hey All, I have contacted Scosche and Metra since April about a dash kit for the CX-5. They have yet to set a date for when one would be released. Back in May, Scosche told me late July-Early August. I called today to confirm today and now they are saying end of year. Does anyone know of any...

Hey Guys, I am new to this thread, and I also bought my Mazdaspeed3 GT fully loaded a month ago :) Im a super proud owner of it, however the person before me switched out the stock head unit for a crappy kenwood, and I was wondering if anybody knows where I can find the wiring harness so I can...

Selling my Kenwood DNX5140 Double DIN head unit with navigation, Sirius Satellite tuner, iPod connector, and bluetooth hands-free adapter. Used but in great, working condition. It was installed on my MSP but I just recently sold the car and took it out before it was sold. I'll also include a...

I realized that I posted this in the wrong place but didn't know how to move the original, so, sorry for the repost. So, as of two nights ago I've noticed my head unit's lights are staying on all the time - even after I've turned off the lights, exited the car, and locked the doors. . . ...

Hey guys, it's been awhile since I've been on here, so, "hi." So, as of last night I've noticed my head unit's lights are staying on all the time - even after I've turned off the lights, exited the car, and locked the doors. . . . this is new. What's going on?? Has this happened with anyone...

Hey, So I was thinking of changing my sound system in my MP5 (The stock sounds horrible) and I was wondering on if its worth more to change the HU or the front and back speakers? I did some research on the forums and I've read a post that said the HU was the weakest link of the whole system and...
