You know, my Grandfather tried for my entire childhood to teach me electronics and machining and I never fully appreciated it until now. I wish he was still around to I could say thanks. However, I wish to extend my thanks to this channel for helping me realize that and I have hope to build on the foundation my grandfather laid. Great mod. Well explained.

David, I had the same grandfather, who passed this March from pneumonia. He taught me a little (e.g., how to solder, how to convert different number systems), but I should've spent with him 10 times more time than I did. I didn't think it would happen so soon, and I hoped I'd show him my projects, he would be so proud. I guess we'll have to continue finding inspiration on our own, but still imagining how cool it would be if they still were around.

My phone broke. Time to take apart my car.

I feel both smarter and dumber (for not knowing how to do this) after watching this great hack, you take what looks complex and make it simple! Great job!

If you remove a feature from a car, it's known as deleting it. For example: www.darksidedevelopments.co.uk/egr-removal-delete/

You are such and inteligent and adaptive person ! a rare jewel !love every video !

Keep on doing your thing Inventor Man. I MacGyver when possible too, and I can totally relate to what your doing. Anyone in this vast world of stupidity and ignorance can "go buy a new head unit", however surprisingly few have the knowledge or the creativity to even consider thinking about doing this for themselves. For myself it's simply the appreciation difference that I get from the things that Ive built and/or modified. I hope to see more videos from you. Also, excellent narrating, the detail in your actions are noteworthy and very informative

dude half the time i have no idea what you are talking about, but i love your videos and the way you explain what your doing, makes me want to grab a soldering iron and go crazy.

Nice to see this channel active again. Keep the good work coming.

I just stumbled upon this video. GREAT STUFF! Thanks for all you do. I'll be watching more

"The gentle touch of my vice" :-)

Brilliant hack. Very useful, too. Not all of us have a modern car with this amenity built-in.

love seeing ingenuity in the making. great work.

Still listening to impressive music !! I like it !! Good to have you back too !!

At 10:00 you can hear the bottles of alcohol rolling into each other in the back seat. That aside, wonderful work!

I would have loved to see some glue added to the solder joints where you soldered the audio cable to the pads next to the audio jack as a strain relief. Also, I don't know if it's needed in Germany, but here in Iceland I would have tried to seal the voltage regulator pot with silicone or some hot-snot to prevent moisture from changing the resistance and thus changing the output voltage. :) Great hack! Good to see you back on your feet! :D

Great hack. I can see this giving new life to my other audio gear. Thanks for sharing.

love the ingenuity and the how to of the video

Great work, great instructions, I have almost 0 knowledge in electronics, but your instructions are crystal clear, you just earned a new subscriber :). Greetings from Egypt.

wow what a view from your driveway. you have a beautiful home.

Thanks for this video. I'll be doing this myself soon. I have an older high end receiver that will now be brought in to the modern age.

You've just given me an idea for something else, Thankyou.

DUDE YOU ARE A LEGEND!

I can't believe this video got 192 thumbs down. I guess some people don't appreciate ingenuity.

You should make more of videos like this bringing older technology more usable using a bit of modern tech. Love to come back to your older videos.

This is a motivating video. I was just motivated to purchase a car stereo with built-in bluetooth.

This ingenious hack could be used in old cars with old stereos, that for mounting purposes and originality a new stereo wouldn't work, look good, or would ruin the aesthetic in an old restored car. Bravo!

Kool voice and ascent....goes perfectly together. You know your stuff!

This is genius and beautiful work of art. Great work!

Great to see a new video from you!

I really feel like I'm making progress learning electronics when I realised that I knew how this hack could be done early on in the video.. very Very cool vid👏👍👍👍

Dan thank you very much for your reply, it had simplified a lot of thing for me and I'll check for videos about what you have suggested. thanks again

I love this video, so creative and useful!

I really enjoy the concept of your channel. U are awesome!

thought about doing something simular for a long time :) Infact, i even thought about building my very own car stereo based on an Arduino or a Raspberry Pi with an LCD touchscreen :) Never got around to it though :)

Dr. Strangelove hacks a car stereo. I love it!

That's some serious Shadowrun shit! Lol I love it! Keep up the great videos man!

Superb hack, thanks for sharing.

Great hack, very nicely done.

Great vid, you make it look so easy.

very simple and works very well .

nice job I like your approach

This tech guy is terrific!

Best of all the dash looks factory (with some black paint) and nothing to steal if parked some place dodgy. Nice work!

Man. Iv been waiting for your video. Keep it up ;)

Beautiful road and location :)

Great video love the folk music.

Your name alone rewards you a new subscriber. ✊🏿

You're an amazing person.

nice to see you're still alive :D

That was a cool video to watch.. thank you.Here's your thumbs up.

Sweet! That is a great hack!!! Nice music selection also.

I love how you almost mix some German words into the English ones. Like Zwölf and Twelve turn into Twölf😂 Also, awesome hack. I have used your audio input hack on an old Grundig "Music Boy" radio reciever, and it works great!

Nicely done! I fully understand how hacking your radio to make it do what you want is much more satisfying than just buying a new new. Bravo !

Nice modification ;) Thumbs up :D Alex

Sir, you are very cleaver! I also wonder if you are a teacher? If you are not, you should be.. You explain your process very well. Thank you for your work, Eric in Oregon

You are a genius, great idea to use a car-radio cassette.

Loved it. Good Job. Keith

thats such a nice video.thanks for posting

Good hack and easy to understand

My moto G has a dodgy jack too. Didn't get as bad as yours but it will soon so I went ahead and got a new phone. Cool mod.

Nice hack. Thanks for sharing.

Absolute GENIAL!! This is just what I need for my 1986 DODGE RAM D-150 TRUCK. A bit over my pay grade, but I have a friend who can probably get this done. Super so see great examples of German Engineering - for household use! Liebe Gruesse as Nashville.

Super Video leider bin ich kein Elektroniker und vieles war für mich wie Chinesisch aber es zeigt dass es nicht so schwer ist wenn Mann sich etwas auskennt. Danke fürs zeigen!

Nicely done!

This is really helpful. I have two audio amplifiers at home, but neither are bluetooth, and I don't wish to keep using my audio jacks, as they are easily damaged if someone tugs on the cable.

This is the first video of this channel I watched and loved it. I feel so good watching this. Beautiful country side and wonderful music. Could you pls share the info of that music with us? Thank you. Cheers!

Great introduction

You, sir, are magnificent.

"this switch needs to be deleted..." I laughed.

. you sure have earned a subscription

Well that is a lot of work to go through to get blue tooth integrated into the car radio but hey true you dont have to worry about a voltage drain any longer . Great video

Cool dude ; ) factory stereos have the best fm reception.

I love this guy.

I just received a similar Bluetooth module for an old Pioneer. It has two wires for being hard wired to 12v and the output is Pioneer's IP-BUS connector that plugs right into the back of the headunit.

You are awesome man

Great video, but one thing I was wondering, cars produce more than 12v when running, usually the alternator puts out 13.5v to 14.8v, so how well regulated would the pot based power supply you made be?

1:09 Wow, I have that exact phone. Righteous!

I love this kinda stuff...as luck would have it, i have a bluetooth receiver in my parts that i been what to do with. I wont be putting it in car stereo but i at least know how to wire it up when i find a good use for it....whoever you are dude, thanks for that vid. reaspect, peace

I like the auxiliary port added to the tape player. I might make one like this myself. I have a smaller tape opening. An old slot insert from a computer would work. Anyway all I have ever used is an iLive bluetooth receiver. I used a better quality tape adapter and ran the cable down through my dash to my floorboard in my 98 Grand Marquis. I had bought a Bell 3 12v adapter switch that has 2 usb ports also and uses a toggle switch as to not leave it on all the time. Used a 2 inch usb cable and the receiver was Velcroed to the carpet as well as the adapter. It sat on the transmission hump. All I had to do to use it was reach down and turn it own. I ran it off of battery and when it died I just switched the toggle switch on. Before I had it Velcroed to the dash trim along with the auxiliary cable ran through the dash up to it. Looked nice but no way to charge it and use it without it looking stupid. On the car's 12v port it was in the pull out cup holder. I removed it and had the Bell adapter plugged into it and hidden in the dash out of the way. Now that I had my 98 Ford Expedition XLT I am looking at all kinds of possibility to add it to places and hide gadgets to use. Already got a nice set up with an old iPhone 3g in an Otterbox defender case. I modified the holster to accept the charger through the bottom. It sets in my pull out cup holder. The tape adapter line is again ran through the dash and comes out the opening of the cup holder. My iPhone charger is ran from the 2 12v adapters across. The iPhone sets nicely down into the holder and everything is pretty much well hidden. I have added a toggle switch to the line to cut the juice when not running. The iPhone 3g is my favorite device to use for music in the car. I also have a nice dual screen dvd player set up in the back that is tied into the stereo through the aux port. When I add the bluetooth adapter I will need to come up with a way to have all three tied into the system without having to unplug and plug each time.

Way beyond my abilities right now. Pretty impressive.

Recently started watching your videos, as an electronics technician I can't get enough. Did you consider removing your original 3.5mm jack and using the jack on the Bluetooth board? It seems better than having a parallel input circuit.

that is awesome man way to go

Me: "I'll go out and buy a cheap BT car radio" TPAI: "I'll just hack and mod some stuff I've got lying around and before you come back from the store it's up and running!" Marvellous!!!!

really cool! good job. one could just take a 3.8 V DC-DC converter, but you even built that yourself =) Super Sache!

I appreciate the video. Thanks. What camera were you using in the car towards the end? The zoom was much nicer than mine

well done sir!

great video. thanks for sharing it.

wow, so nice of you

hi that was a well needed one for me. thanks. and just to know is it possible to install a microphone also?. so that dont have to talk with the ph 😋

Schönes Video, suche schon eine Weile nach eine Möglichkeit meinen Corsa in originalen Look zu lassen.
