Nice! I've been looking for ways of bringing my astra up to date, this will be one of the ways.

Looks great this mate can confirm I fitted an erisin headunit with all similar features but as u say quite low down, the sound quality is miles better after I fitted pioneer speakers and a vibe triple sub in the spare wheel well it's unreal

This Stereo is amazing, Ill probably upgrade my Pioneer to this at some point. Nice Vid

Looks good mate another quality video

Looks good I’ve gone the other way and fitted a pumpkin and Removing the top display to link another 7” screen in place so it just look more factory

Hey James we chatted earlier on Facebook, I built this kit 4.5 years ago couple years later I saw Ali express copied it with a fitting kit for that position with an android tablet, yours looks considerably more improved than the one I got but it is almost 5 years old

Nvm wasn’t you I was speaking to lol

I gotta buy this for my Astra as well ;( Looks so crisp !

Congrats for the video. A question: I have installed the Carlink Android radio in the Opel Astra H but I have a problem with the air conditioning which does not turn on either manually or from the radio. There is no power coming from one of the connectors (the gray one). To understand if the problem comes from the air conditioning alone, I removed the installed radio and reinstalled the old factory display. So I noticed that with the original display and with the original factory wiring used everything works well. can you help me?

Thank you very much for the video! I have mounted the same unit, but I get some canbus errors, maybe you can help me with that?

Looks amazing and modernising the car . Great videos too . Is it possible you could send me the link to purchase one of these please 🙏

Tnis looks sick ! Can you please provide a link where you got it from ?

I have a 2005 Astra will this work in it? And where did you get this from please?

Nice video , can u please give a link from where to buy? I have a Vectra C and it would be dope to have something like that. Thx

Can I view the data from the on-board computer, such as climate etc., in the new system?

not sure what speakers you have. i would recommended you to take BLAM LIVE series. sounds very pure, not at all comparable to a pioneer or alpine speakers, BLAM LIVE speakers sound so good

Could you send me the link for the head unit you’ve used and they see the cd fascia as well please

you can see the coolant temperature with this radio? and do you have the link? greetings from chile on my Astra h opc

Hi James cool video! Where did you get it from, i want to get one too

But can you controll AC and BC from that screen ? Because I can do that from my 10,5" Android screen (DIY)

This navi keeps original informations from bc? Like instantaneous consumption distance to empty, trip etc?

Hi friend, can you tell me if you installed a special cable to have the original radio and the display connected at the same time? I would like to have the original radio also turned on to have the BC and menu functions hidden, of course I will replace the GID somewhere else, thank you

If so, can you provide the product link so I can purchase it? thanks

if you want i'd buy that cd30 and screen i want to keep the factory stereo but I have the non mp3 :(

Hi, i have a question : the on board computer that shows consumption, distance traveled, instantaneous consumption, appears in the car information application? I have a Canbus OD box and the cable that comes from the old display only has one wire, so it does not show the information and I am looking to get the Canbus LZ box with its wiring, and seeing that it has more wires than mine I guess it will show more information, I guess. Thank you very much!

I have cable with more wires, but still no information, without original screen air conditioner not working🙈

Great unit. How do you get AC unit to work? Would be cool to do a video just on how this handles stock functions like AC, fan speed, temperature, etc.... I am convinced to buy one but i totally need AC to work. Also, this would be perfect if it allowed some side tilt so it faces the driver a bit more. Great video

This doesn't have support for climate control on the Astra afaik, unfortunately. It works fine with normal AC where you set the temp with a dial though.

Did u set the steering wheel control

Could u send a link to this mate please

Where can I Order one of these head unit?

How much they go for? 🤔

Have the same setup although i moved my GID display in place of the original radio and 3D printed a face plate.

@@karolkijak4587 I have installed the same head unit ( Teyes CC3 but with 360 cameras ) in my Astra h, and have it working with my GID display, but the original radio is not connected. So in that case you will loose the ability to enter " the secret menu / settings " to adjust the time and date and view things like coolant temperature.Also if your car's AC is via a climatronic / climate control you need to have the GID connected otherwise you will have no power to the AC. I found that the hard way when installing the unit in the winter and finding out that I had no heating afterwards.....

@@ajninn Hi thanks for reply, yes I do have AC klimatronic and I know I can't remove GID. I'm also aware that original radio has to go ;) (I have seen an app that replaces those buttons bc and settings and it does work, but but I have seen it on dedicated units kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZIShxMtvnqS6dtI.html) So how did you managed to install head unit and have GID working? Does this head unit require that GID connector to be connected in order to work or it doesn't? What do I loose if I don't connect the head unit with that GID connector? AFAIK that GID connector is only power and CAN bus signals - so it seems both devices, head unit and GID can be connected together and the only side offect would be that both react to buttons on the steering whell...

@@karolkijak4587 Teyes has a similar app that tries to mimic the original radio functions on the head unit but it's non functional on the Astra. Unfortunately do to some reason ( either lack of effort or didn't even bother to test it on Astras ) their products have somewhat poor compatibility with the Astra H ( especially with cars with climate control ) Be prepared for issues like steering wheel buttons stop working from time to time and require a reset. Also they imply via marketing that the head unit ( Teyes CC3 ) has the ability to reprogram the original steering wheel controls. That is false, that function is only compatible for analogue buttons which the Astra h doesn't have. Now regarding the wiring if your interested in having the unit take the place of the GID screen it does come with a wire harness that requires the GID connector. You can create a Y splitter ( get a second connector and connect it's cables 1 to 1 with the original ) and have both connected and " working " at once. But the issue here is that this causes some interference with the GID screen and you'll lose the climate control information that is displayed on it. After some trouble shooting I found out that to run the head unit it doesn't need the whole connector, it only needs a single cable ( would love to provide a link to a photo but my comment gets removed by youtube ) . This way you have the Teyes and the GID screen running without issues. Without that single cable connection the unit just doesn't power on for some reason. I then ordered the wire harness for the variant that takes the place of the original radio, to check if with it I would have less issues... it had more so I went back. And finally yes to some extent the steering wheel buttons will interact both with the Head unit and the GID screen, but it's only the left scroll wheel.

So you have to lose your trip computer and fuel consumption display in order to use the Teyes?

@JamesBalazs

I'm not sure. I didn't have those anyway, because I have an aftermarket ECU. The Teyes does seem to display them, but it doesn't work at least on my car. I seem to remember their website saying it isn't supported.

Hi mate can you send me the link to this cheers

The steering wheel is on the right side, making it difficult to use the radio. Typically, apps have a menu on the left.

Can you tell me where i can get that Cigarette holder. Looks like that you can put a phone in there

Hi looking at buying this could you fit it for me? Can pay you of course

I have a EDL1 datalogger plugged into my cars aftermarket ECU For a stock Astra ECU you would just need a Bluetooth OBD adapter. Teyes sell one that works with this exact head unit.

You're not gonna electrocute yourself on a 12V system but it doesnt hurt to disconnect it ^^

To each their own. I personally like having all the gauges for my standalone ECU on a big touchscreen, and not having to look down away from the road for the satnav (which was annoying AF with a Sony head unit in my Vectra). The stock stereo will be replaced with a carbon blanking plate and a switch panel for antilag, traction control adjustment and boost / map switching, eventually. For now it's better to still have a CD30 there than a big hole in the dash.

Hi James, im after some advise on the Head unit, i have it in my car and it is ok so far but in struggling with a few bit, i messaged you a few weeks ago on facebook

Thank you very much for the video! I have mounted the f unit, but I get some canbus errors, maybe you can help me with that?
