On this episode of Project Miata The Answer, I install an upgraded radio. After reviewing so many cars, I've come to love when an infotainment system has a wireless Apple CarPlay function. I decided to go with the Pioneer DMH-W2770NEX for it's wireless Apple CarPlay, backup camera compatibility, and RCA connections.

honestly, the scenario is mine, i have an mx5 with a pioneer radio installed, and wanted to learn how to fully remove it, trim and all, to get a new double din in there. i thought this video was the answer, u fortunately you manage to skip over everything possibly useful to anyone, and fill the rest of the time with the opposite of clear and concise. appreciate the effort and that this is more of a vlog but damn am i frustrated.

Well you commented with nothing I can help you with. What’s your question and I’ll try to answer it as best as possible.

I've got this same unit in my 2005 CRV. It's great. Connections are great, sound is great, all great. However, sometimes I just like to drive without having to listen to anything, yet I still want my Pixel connected wirelessly for GPS and phone functions. You can't turn the volume down per se (I know you can as the guidance volume is seperate but it's not convenient). Aso, you can't mute it because it mutes everything.

@Revmatchmedia 3 месяца назад

Did you place the GPS module behind the radio or on your dash? I had no issues behind the radio in my Miata but want to know if others encounter any since it says it has to have a clear path to the sky.

I'm lazy, so I buy my radios from Crutchfield and buy all the stuff from them and have them prewire the connections for $25 so that it can save me a lot of time. I bought the same radio on your video for my 2010 Nissan Versa. I also bought speakers for all 4 doors. I love buying from Crutchfield. They make it so easy for the DIY stuff. Who's your radio working so far? Did you connect the "brake wire" to ground?

@Revmatchmedia Месяц назад

Prewire for $25 is a steal and I would've definitely done that if I wasn't doing the documenting it on RU-vid. I haven't done the brake wire yet but the radio is working fine. Im looking at getting an amp for the speakers though because they're definitely craving more power than the radio can offer.

@@Revmatchmedia I bought this aftermarket bypass for that brake wire for like $10 off Ebay 👍

@dalegribble60 Год назад

That black trim you were putting on at 19:18....where did you get that? I have no trim to cover the space.

@Revmatchmedia Год назад

That would be the Metra 99-7505 Single or Double DIN Installation Multi-Kit for Select 1994-2006 Mazda Vehicles amzn.to/3RcM30M It comes with 2 parts, a single din with a cubby, and the other is a double din front frame. Use the double din one and you'll need to cut the little piece in the middle that it has for shipping protection. The texture isn't 100% the same but it's a good texture that doesn't stand out in a bad way.

@L4st0neAliv3 Год назад

maybe I missed it but how did you end up connecting the parking brake wire? Did you bypass it?

@Revmatchmedia Год назад

Thanks for watching. I didn’t connect it since my main use, Amazon music and maps, was working fine without it. Check out this video which they appear to do a bypass within the radio system itself. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-M4g97WW5OB8.html

I just ordered this for my SAAB 2008, and I got all the wiring. Main purpose was to have wireless carplay. Would you say the GPS wire is pretty long, or limited at best? I'm trying to figure out if I can rewire and pull it up to the cabin lights. Same question for the mic cable, if it is pretty short I think I need to order a extension cable for both of these.

@Revmatchmedia 8 месяцев назад

I don’t recall the exact length for both cables. What I will tell you is that my gps module is shoved behind the radio and I have no issues with connectivity. You may not need to run it up to the cabin lights.

I'm installing one rigjt now now and I measured it it's just a little over 11-1/2ft at 140" long of the wire portion.

How is the glare with the top down?

@Revmatchmedia 10 месяцев назад

Sorry I just saw this comment. The glare isn’t too bad. It sits low enough that it’s not that big of a deal. I always run mine at full brightness.

@shawncarino5858 2 месяца назад

I have a base model 2017 HRV without gps or navigation, would I need to purchase the antenna to use this wirelessly?

@Revmatchmedia 2 месяца назад

The little square GPS antenna that I installed is included in the radio.

@shawncarino5858 2 месяца назад

@@Revmatchmedia oh perfect, thank you.

@Revmatchmedia 2 месяца назад

@@shawncarino5858 look up the manual online because it says the antenna should be to a clear line of sight to the outside for satellites. I didn't do that because I wanted to minimize things on the dash and i put it behind the radio with no problems. I did install it on a miata which is convertible. If you dont want to have the part on the dash, i would test things out before putting everything back together.

@ragnarocking Год назад

How did the GPS antenna work out? Did it have connectivity or accuracy issues being hidden inside the DIN?

@Revmatchmedia Год назад

Thanks for watching. I haven’t had any issues with it being in the DIN area. Kinda surprised considering the manual kept saying it had to have direct line of sight to the outside. Mine did move off to the passenger side little space so it’s not directly behind the radio. Are you considering it for a Miata or a different car?

@ragnarocking Год назад

@@Revmatchmedia Thanks! I'm going to install it in a Subaru Crosstrek today or tomorrow and I'd prefer the antenna not be visible. I've seen other RU-vidrs install Pioneers and opt to keep the antenna hidden so I was kind of surprised to see Pioneer's insistence it be mounted to the top of the dash.

@Revmatchmedia Год назад

@@ragnarocking Yeah I was confused by it too but thankfully it was working and has been with no issues. Like I said in my video, I would recommend connecting everything but not put the radio into the dash and test everything. Are you planning on bypassing the parking brake wire? Here is a link of someone doing it without a cable. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-M4g97WW5OB8.html
