That wiring portion was a life saver for an install im doing right now! I Iove your videos especially the one where you drove around to do the exhaust clip. Keep it up!

i felt like i was watching a movie, like ironman or something, great video, great commentating, excellent choice of music, really good editing, not much to say, i can't wait until i get a corvette and start doing this.

Throwing in “probably a bear” to the electrical list of needed items is great 😂👏🏻

Just ordered mine ! Awesome content brother!

Thanks you boost my confidence in this installation

Thanks excellent guide have read about this unit on forums your guide makes it look pretty reasonable to do. Thanks

Pretty cool. I still have the factory head unit. It sure could use something like this

Wow…..just wow….thank you for this.

Nice job. I keep going back and forth on keeping the stock look vs a new flat screen radio. I like this because I won't have to cut out brackets, reposition the A/C head unit and get a new dash/bezel. Thanks for the info.

Great video! Complete and thorough, with good editing for smooth viewing. Inspired me to install the same setup. I know its a year later but hopefully you can answer a quick question. The illumination/dimmer wire.... I hooked it up to the same circuit on the hvac unit like you did. But it doesn't seem to work right. When I turn on the headlights it seems to get a little brighter, and the knob left of the steering wheel doesn't really do anything to the head unit illum. The hvac illum is fine.

I know a lot of ppl hate on China/Chinese products but the fact is that china makes the majority of what we have and use here i the US. Like anywhere there are companies that thrive off of cheap manufacturing but there are plenty of Chinese companies that produce quality products even if we aren't familiar with the brands. I know this video is a few years old but Joying a few other companies have come quite a ways in the android head unit market.

I like this dude👍🏾

Thinking about giving my flip out pioneer to my gf for her car and trying this out. If I do, would the wiring harnesses be very different? Or are most wires universal except for a few? I’m assuming each harness is fairly different if even the JOYING radios varied by wire color like you said in the video.

Nice video! Would have done the same but I'm a bit camera shy (BTW, I'm Ltemple) Glad it worked out for you.

Oh one thing I should have mentioned!!! Once you have everything hooked up (assuming you are using this head unit) you MUST turn on the amp via sound settings on the main menu. You will get 95% treble until you do that!

10/10 Intro -Mark

I was just pondering if I should consider a unit similar to this if I should invest the money in a tablet or a double din oh, but it's interesting you mention something about 20-plus years old archaic? Then it dawned on me with hearing about some of the issues people are having with units even Pioneers that last 2 years? But that archaic piece that's 20 plus years old in my C5 still works great? With the Bose amplifiers and Bose speakers one of the best sounding stock systems installed in a vehicle actually, even the CD player still works great although the CD changer also works when you are parked at a park or something or you just want some tunes in your shop you turn on this bode system and it is plenty good? And reliable..., when I go drive my convertible 6MT, millennial yellow C5... it's really about the vehicle being able to go 165 miles per hour, and Corner better than anything in this generation hell this is the car that won LeMans and dominated for several years many years after... so that poses one question which stock car on this entire planet could do 165 plus win LeMans handle in such fashion in yet pose have a incredible sound system that actually lasted 20 plus years and is still going strong? Anybody? put some VH on.. A little “dancing in the street“ On CD.. it's impossible to duplicate that sound... I don't know I may consider a tablet mount with a Bluetooth just to have the navigation and some of the apps rolling at the same time integrated with the original head unit.. which still works awesome.. even after two decades.

Hey, when you found your auxiliary power on that under the dash passenger foot well. Was it not connected to a common plug? I’m in the middle of my install. Thanks

How do you like the back-up camera clarity? Is the viewing at nighttime in reverse acceptable? Great job at clean-ness of detail for installation. I didn’t catch the price of stereo installed. Thank -You I own a 2004 Vette and would like to make this modification.👍

Sorry for the second comment. But I’m guessing the Pak one wiring adapter that we must use for the Bose system is sold separately? Does not come with the head unit.

Maybe i missed it, but do you have the model # for the 1.5 din? I've been looking for something exactly like that for my Vette. Video you made is great. Thank you.

Did they just stop making this head unit?? The link in the description says the item is not available.

How did you mount the single din sleeve in the double din opening

Just installed the same unit on my 04. How did you get the USB tethering to work? Everything else is working great. Just can't figure out the tethering. Any help would be appreciated.

there are 4 different models on the joying website. which one did you order ?

This looks like a must have upgrade, would make my 04 C5 more like my 2019 F150 Platinum, wonder if there is a car audio business around here to pay to have this installed

So all wiring harnesses are included with the unit?

Same man. You need to find a big fat orange wire under the passenger footwell in the cluster of wires. There’s a fat red and pink one so make sure it is orange!! Then you can tap the red wire from the stereo harness to the orange wire. It’s your vehicle accessory wire, it triggers on the radio

Also, the information you lead us to for the wiring pac says ”For 1997 - 2002 Chevrolet corvette vehicles Factory Bose EQ cannot be retained, optional tweeters are needed to maintain high frequencies” so this DOES NOT retain the original bose system. And note above this is for 1997-2002? C5 years run and include 2003? So this is not for 2003? Seems like a great product but the information is sketchy?
