All installed now, working well and all screws accounted for lol ….. thanks for your video
Ha thanks for watching, glad it went well
Just wanted to say a big thank you for making this video and sharing your knowledge/ experience. Half way through the installation now and this video has helped ALOT!
Did you have any issues with getting steering wheel buttons working with the head unit?
No problem thanks for watching
Mine worked fine it just reversed the forwards and backwards buttons
Thank you! I'm much more comfortable with ordering this now!
Thanks for watching, as long as you watch both my videos and understand both positives and negatives as there are some then great stuff
Thank you, very very very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
When you add the lift kit of around 2 inches, will it affect the handling of the Paceman. Making it more like a tall SUV wobbly boat like and all over the place and no longer planted like a go cart as Mini’s are??
It probably will to some degree, but thats what I want to find out for myself and will give an honest opinion, although I have my F56 to go fast around bends so not overly bothered if it although I know you can get stiff anti roll bars etc to work with it
@@tweedbean I look forward to seeing the video once you’ve done it. I’ve been thinking about the lift kit but don’t want to compromise on the way my Paceman drives. Has the larger tyres made any difference to the handling apart from a smoother ride than the annoying harsh run flat tyres that came with the car?
hello tweedbean,
I am writing to you here via google translator because my english is not good. find your guide very helpful. can you tell me if the steering wheel controls work without problems?
and the displays for the speed and fuel status match? And, did you have to program anything else or did everything work fine after the plugging?
Thanks very much , greetings from germany
Hi thanks for watching. Steering controls work, as per the video, the skip track buttons are reversed but work.
Thanks so much for making this video! Was super helpful installing a new android headunit into my wife’s R60. The only issue is that now there’s an error code from the clock being reset and with the clock controls being part of the old speedo I’m at a loss for how to set it now. Did you run into that or would know of any fixes?
Sorry I can’t remember any issues like that with mine.
Great vid, did you research many options before choosing this one - I hear some are better than others. Are you happy with it having now used. Finally, other than the supplied wiring, any other wiring mods or coding required? this would take it beyond my skills level!
Yes as explained in the video I shopped around to see what was on offer. Yep super happy with it. As for wiring/fitting fully covered in the video
Hi, I know it didn't mention R59 mini Cooper roaster S, but is there a difference? The shape looked the same.
Hi it’s subtly different but they do a version for the r59 as it’s the same as the r56
Thank you very much for taking the time to document this. I’m about to tackle my Dad’s R60 and this has certainly made my life a lot easier! I hope you have a great weekend! 🍻
So glad it could help, good luck
Great video! What does installation mean for rear parking sensors - do they still work?
Rear sensors continued to work on mine from memory
I am thinking of getting a countryman R60, do you think this will fit? The dial looks the same as your original one. Also do you have a link for where you bought it from please?
Have a look at icebox auto link in the description
Does the OEM sounds continue to work like the warning chimes, door chimes/seatbelt/indicators etc?
Yes and the screen warns you when doors are open etc
@@tweedbean does it create the original 'mini' noises or is it replaced with a different tone
@@THEDARKEMPIRE56 that is not radio controlled
Hello, thanks for the video. I have a R61 Paceman with CIC system, harmon karden sound and rear sensors.
What's the latest with the biggest LCD that one could install now?
I would contact iceauto to see what options you have
Hi, I have the same model in my R60 cooper S. The unit was working normaly yesterday, this morning at start the screen is black, no power on the USB plugs and no warning light on the small center screen ( ex warning light ) as if the was no power at all. Any idea or help ?
Sorry not sure on that, I would speak to the supplier
I bought the same one but it looks like some how information ( speed , tempo, etc) is heavy to see over the sunny day, touchscreen reflecting background of car when is ☀️ (summer) day. Is it the same situation at yours display?
I never really had an issue, you could always buy some anti glare film and see if that works
How do you set up the clock on a small dash where it is RMP Tacho? I disconnected the battery and i couldn't set up the clock without the old unit. In the small screen Menu also doesn't't exist clock set up.
@@big_z.v6720 i have not found a way to do that, as the interface is gone now
Congratulations on the tutorial. I wanted to know if the speakerphone during phone calls is of a valid level of quality. Thank you
Yeah no issue at all
Do you think this stero would work in a 2009 jcw clubman?
Iceboxauto do a version for the r56 hatch that will
Hey tweedbean,
does the stock mini usb and aux-in connection still works? So is it connected to the new headunit? Or is this not the case? Would be somehow a waste...
Thx and keep up with the cool videos!
To be honest I haven’t tested it as I dont like the location of the stock usb port however if it doesn’t, there will be an off the shelf cable you can use to convert it I would imagine
@@tweedbean Thx, mate!
mine did not
Is there a way to change to the Mini logo when the head unit is booting up? also that "hello master" voice every time you start the car is tacky, is there a way to disable that? Thanks.
Possibly but it was not obvious or straight forward from what I could see in the menu system and there were no instructions for it
You can disable the assistant if I remember correctly
@@tweedbean found the option to change the boot logo in the factory settings, only 4 images are available to choose, some "warning" messages, will try uploading a pic though a pen drive hope it works.
Great Video thank you. was wondering if you would post a link to the same model on Alibaba....I'
I'm in New Zealand so easier from there . Trying to find the same model but so many variations. Thank you again!
Sorry I don’t use alibaba
Thanks for the video. Does it automatically connect to CarPlay or do you have to start an app or something?
It’s wireless car play so automatically connects, or you can do wired CarPlay so it kicks in when you connect the cable
@@tweedbean It that Carplay real apple Carplay or some Android stuff that looks like Apple car play?
Real
@@tweedbean Thanks
does anyone know what the slot is under the knob? what is it for?
Not sure
Have you tried to fix the Kph to Mph issue using a download file? I found a video on CZcams video by 'The Power Within You' which describes a fix for aftermarket Chinese units by downloading a .apk file from MediaFire. I don't know whether it works for this unit, but as I'm looking to purchase one like yours (after watching your great video), but it might be worth having a go. Many thanks for your really good and detailed video.
Thanks great tip, unfortunately I don’t own the car anymore but it sounds like a possibility someone could try
Ciao io ho installato il monitor è tutto funzionante ma le luci dei tasti del clima e della plafoniera rimangono spente come mai?
You must have forgotten to connect one of the cables as one controls the lighting
Hello y have the same radio and the same problem before installation i have error the tyres impossible the remove!!
It’s a flaw I hadn’t spotted and I don’t think the manufacturers did
Did your oem aux and usb connector still work?
I dont remember actually testing it
Does it have a equalizer for music
I don’t own it anymore but I seem to remember it did
Decent video but holy crap man there are more screws in that dash than took to build the Titanic
Ha most definitely, thanks for watching
What was the delivery time ?
Ordered 18th Oct, arrive 1st Nov. They are ordered when you purchase and sent to icebox, they then check it and then send it out.
Great tutorial........but no matter how much I try can't get the sensor cover off, any tips don't want to destroy it
Literally use a really thin screw driver is about the only extra thing I can say
Is it possible it's a different cap, I have a 2013 paceman
bro how to fixed wiring reverse camera please
Sorry I no longer own the car however reverse cameras are set explanatory with lots of CZcams videos already covering top
Is there a configuration to change this to MPH?
Hi all covered in the video? You are stuck with KPH
@@tweedbean Okay, I was crossing my fingers that you missed a setting. :) Like you said, though, the speed is on the tach in MPH so it's not a huge issue.
is it ok for MOT test if the new stereo is KPH?
Yes as you have an MPH reading on the digital readout above the steering wheel@@kevintse1558
So you have inspired some fake confidence here. Going to attempt this upgrade myself. Just waiting for the head unit to arrive. It took me 5 phone calls to even find a shop willing to do the work and was quoted a little over $300 to do it. Even my local mini dealership said they WOULDN'T do it because they won't install 3rd party parts.
Edit to add. One of dislikes in another video of the KM thing isn't a issue here. Canadian so everything is already in KM/hr.
Yeah I wouldn’t expect Mini to fit any aftermarket parts. Honestly I cover every step in the video, just make sure you test it all before you put the dash back together so you don’t have to remove it all again if you forget to connect something etc
@@tweedbean For me it is going to be a 1 or 2 day all day project. Since like your paceman the entire dash seems to needs to be removed. Going to take the time while it is apart to wrap/paint a few of the dash pieces to color match the outside of the car. So I will for sure be taking my time and double checking everything.
Also doing a few things that wasn't covered in the video. Going to run the rear cam wires, and amp wires for when I get around to doing the rear seat delete. That the wires are already done and ready to be hooked up.
Should ask thou. In the video you had the console by the shifter all apart. My USB port there doesn't work. Is it an easy swap out to replace it using 1 of the 2 new usb cables that comes with the head unit?
I used the Andream unit as my R60 had the factory Screen already, its no joke how much has to be removed to get to the radio. Lots of swearing happened....
@@MrShuntking I want to do the same, did you manage to undo the trim around it? My headunit is not delivered yet.
@@caddy67 I went to a shop and had it done. I have issues with my hands and fingers. After I think screw number 5 and struggling to get those out. Just said f it and paid to have them do it. Or what for normal people would take 2-3 hours was going to take me all day and night.
Will this work for a 2013 mini coupe
This exact one no but they offer virtually the same that would: www.iceboxauto.com/mini-cooper-s-one-r55-r56-r57-navi-android-10-carplay-oem-style-radio-mn001-2
@tweedbean thank you so much I can't wait to get it for my 2013 mini coupe s
I have the radio installed but the fuel gauge, tacho etc.. Is lit in reverse.When the car has light it is off at the display and when the car has no light the gauge is on. Do you know why this is so? Is it the same for you?
Very odd, didn’t see that with mine.
Is it not illegal to drive without the speedometer in the middle?
No as you have 2 digital speedo read outs on the dash
