This man is my hero for some reason

Thank you for this tutorial! The people that don't like the longer videos are here to be just entertained. Those of us that are interested in the process of how you go from step one to done are more than willing to watch any amount of detail you care to include regardless of how much longer that makes the video in the end. I think that your videos and instructions are a high water mark for the XF series of cars and you should be proud of the work you put in to show us how to modify and car for these cars. I know that I enjoy watching each and every one of them.

Thanks John. Well said. I honestly don't know what some people expect when clicking 9n my videos. Clearly I disappoint them. But as you said, true fans won't be disappointed 😉. This was one video I couldn't keep short due to the complex procedure in the installation. I usually have to edit hours of footage into just 20 minutes or shorter and it's hard to decide what to keep and what to edit out as there is much knowledge that isn't shared. Hopefully the next video will be shorter as it's re-dying and conditioning my car's worn seats. Thanks for the support 🤗

Great Vid, Hilton, nice one ! However, once again, it’s a solution which states “Not compatible with earlier (2007-2010) Mark 1 XF with Denso system or Mk2 XF.”

You do not take too long at all, you explain what you are doing very well, thank you

Only recently joined the Jag family and your videos are my first point of call for anything I'm thinking of doing . Thanks 👍🏼

Very interesting especially about the air vents!! Thanks again for an amazing video !!😀👍

Thanks man you made my day! Did the install today after careful review of your video. No way I could succeed without your video supporting me in the process... You find additional elegant solutions (micro, usb cables) to dennis video which was also a great content. I recently bought my XF-250 S (not R - reason prevail as a daily), and I'm in love with my 1st jag. I chose this version in particular (model1, phase2) because its proximity with original concept C-XF and I'm very happy with it, except of course for the infotainment system. Being able to upgrade this car with an unfashionable and durable CarPlay (which then upgrade when your phone is) generated joy to me! My jag is young forever! Sad you sold yours, but life goes on... Hope you will be able to stay with JLR next time, at Land Rover they do provide a solid user-experience too! My defender is almost 30 years-old now and its still a pleasure to climb onboard and to get ready for adventure. Thank you for your legacy (I notices several videos of yours that will help for the future) and enjoy your rides! Cheers

Tous les détails sont là, merci ! 💪

Many thanks for this great video! I bought one from Unique Auto in UK a couple of months ago and it's just now warm enough to install the unit in my 2013 XF. The only difficult part was routing the cables up into the center console. There's a pretty small hole underneath the side trim of the console and you can't see it well even with the trim loosened. It took me a full day to do the install, but I also fixed the passenger side vent which wasn't rotating. That alone took a couple of hours taking the dash trim apart to get at the motor for the vent. The current version of this device has wireless Android Auto/ Car Play out of the box. You still lose the steering wheel controls and the skip buttons on the console, so you have to use the touch screen for that. The OEM Navigation is disabled, but Google Maps and Waze are better anyway. The backup cam, climate controls and everything else works like usual. You don't have to put the microphone in the overhead console. I just routed it under the trim of the A pillar and stuck it on the flat area on the drivers side of the rearview mirror mount. You can hardly see it. Have the video in front of you while doing the install so you know where all of the screws are. If you're in the US with a left hand drive XF then flip your brain 180 degrees. Thanks for saving me a bunch of time Hilton.

Great video! I installed this exact unit from the same supplier in my 2018 XEs earlier this year. If you want to take it to the next level buy a little device called an "AAWireless". It allows for wireless connectivity without having to select your phone manually on the touch screen every time, it also let's you route your audio directly to your cars Bluetooth and bypass the IDcore entirely, this means you can use stalk controls to skip tracks still and use the much, much better jaguar OEM mic for calls. You can even change the DPI to alter the scale of Android auto on the screen. I can't recommend it highly enough.

Hi Hilton, great video, was looking to do something similar to my XF-RS when I had it, but sold it before I got around to it. Your videos have given me confidence to pull internal dash components off without worrying too much, even though I now have different brand cars ignore those that say your videos are too long - speaking for myself I would rather sit through something with comprehensive instructions as opposed to something shorter with missing instructions. No need to lower yourself to the lowest common denominator, especially on a niche channel ... those complaining people can just bugger off - I mean with youtube they have the ability to scroll through to where ever you want in a video anyway, so what's the problem?

Thanks mate 😊. Sorry to hear you sold your XFRS. I love my XFR, but will have to let it go one day too. The roads destroy wheels with low profile tyres here. Potholes and other hazards are a constant annoyance. So I might get an Evoque or similar Range Rover. Thanks for your comment on my video quality. It's hard to cater to everyone's tastes and generally people don't reserve the right to be rude when commenting on social media from the obscurity of their chairs 😊. So it's a difficult conundrum when trying to get as much info in as possible to help others. But you out it quite succinctly 👌👋

Great video JagFan and you've answered a question I put to the makers, but the inability to use steering wheel controls is a deal breaker for me for both the upgrade and this car I was thinking of getting. I have wireless AA currently on a 15 year old Audi A4 B7, via an Android HU, with full steering wheel control via canbus, including mic input and having to touch the screen would be a massive step back - I find it very distracting on the rare occasions I do and for me defeats the object of Carplay/AA. Have you found any solution for this? Thanks for your detailed video.

Thank you so much for this video, thanks to you I have successfully installed the Joyeauto CarPlay module in my 2013 XFS Portfolio with the Meridian Sound system.

I have bought and had installed (I did not feel I wanted to do it) and all is well except ... they added a rear camera supplied also by Unique. Imitially here was odd behaviour with the added, rear camera, but once Unique supplied us with the install instructions for that, the installers added the suggested relay and all is now well. We do sometimes get the rear sensor alert screen that has to be turned off but it is not always needed. I suspect it is when selecting reverse and the sensors detect something, the screen stays in view until manually selecting the "Display Off" screen option. All in all I can heartily recomment this unit. Do realise that when running Google Maps (or Waze or whatever) the guidance instructions come from the Android box and so it needs to be the selected audio souce (Auxiliary) and not the car stereo. So I have downloaded Spotify playlists that are comparable to my CDs which had been ripped into the car and keep Spotify in Offline mode so it does not stream live. If you have unlimited data it will not be an issue.

Everything on the OEM system works normally after installation except the GPS. Because the GPS plug is replaced with the Android plug behind the unit. And the GPS plug remains unplugged inside the dash. You can still play music using your USB or you can use the USB supplied with the Android unit to play music through. It's a nice mod that brings the car into the modern age.

Do you leave all the other oem wires out the back of the head unit and just have the new unit plugged in alone ?

No, there is only one cable you leave unplugged as I stated in my video and that's the satnav cable that leads to the screen. This plug is replaced by the plug that comes from the Navi unit you installing in order to provide video feed when pressing the SatNav button.

Thanks Sirr. Yeah, I told Canavie the same thing. I told them I'm itching to install one 8n my car but can't wait anymore so it fitted this in the meantime. When I get the Tesla unit I'll offer it to one of my SA subscribers with installation as a gift. Probably have a competition or something. But at least I have Google Maps 8n my XFR for now 😉🤗

Yet again you had my hopes high but ruined as usual do you know of anywhere or anything just something to update my 2010 xf infotainment system love the car to much to change it but the windows 95 looking system is so dated now

A few months ago I found and Android unit that works on the older cars. I'll do some scratching and send you a link on this message. 😉. I've seen videos where guys in Russia have already installed them on the 1st gen XF.

I'm about to buy a 2011 XF and was thinking about switching from the original stereo to something like this but after seeing this I'll pass. There's no way I trust my skills enough to dismantle a jaguar.

It's the same as dismantling a golf 😁.

This seems like an absolute ball ache.

It is but we'll worth the effort🤣

Easier to replace the car for newer with car play.

You can't buy a new Jaguar XF with a V8 engine anymore. So it's better to modernize a classic.
