C6 Corvette Double DIN Install & Review - SONY XAV AX5600

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

I have officially ditched the magnetic phone mount! This Sony touch screen is an absolute game changer for driving experience in a corvette. Hopefully this video helps those on the fence, just as I was. Thanks for watching!

    Great Video!!! I installed the exact same setup on my Daughter's Fiance's C6 and it sounds perfect. I just re-ordered the same package to put in my Son's C6. Now, I feel compelled to buy a C6 for myself and I'll do the same. You should get stock in Sony and Crutchfield!!! Thanks Brother!!!

    I had this in my ZR1 but I could not look over the CarPlay lag on a phone call and no wireless. Not to mention no updates. Switched it out for a Pioneer DMH-WC5700NEX.

    I installed this same unit in a 2006 Mustang GT almost 2 years ago to modernize it! It’s been a great unit even though I don’t get to use it much as the car is an occasional summer cruiser. Paired with Infinity speakers I installed a few years prior, the sound is awesome. I chose this unit for the quality and for the fact that it gives an OEM look as Ford has used Sony stereos for a number of years. I felt that if I went with some other brand it would look tacky and not OEM. I don’t know why people complain about CarPlay not being wireless. It’s no big deal to plug it in and it’s better quality when plugged in anyways. I should installed a licence plate camera and wire it to the unit to complete the modernization. I put the microphone under the dash to the left of the center console so it’s basically out of sight and it works great there.

    Make sure to update the headunit. It usually comes with old pre-installed version. Looks like a new version was just released a week ago. Clean install!!

    Heck yeah! I had a 14’ ATS and loved it. My vette is a 2011 and has been the best car I’ve owned to date. If you get the opportunity to buy one, I wouldn’t hesitate 🙌🏼

    What's your thoughts on the audio quality difference/improvement on the Double Din bluetooth over the FM transmitter? Thanks for the quick and concise video with great info!

    The sounds quality is 1000x better than the FM transmitter. I bought a nicer one at the time, and it was horrible.

    Yes. I had to order a usb adapter to use in the cigarette lighter port which I didn’t see you post a link to and didn’t come with any of the other items… I’ve get everything working except my steering wheel controls. Any idea why they wouldn’t be working?

    @@pinnacle55 Shoot - I'll add my link now, thanks for the heads up. I believe it may be your pins on the PAC system. You have to set them to 1,2,3 (up) and 4 (down). This should align it with the SONY system.

    I have a question to ask you, but I don’t know if you’re gonna reply on here or not but if you do, what’s your Instagram because I got a couple ideas that I want to do to a truck that technically you gave me the ideas but I want to see how you manage to do the customizations in regards of the tundra so if you have an Instagram let me know so I can hit you up
