Stay tuned for more s10 related videos. - Auta a dopravní prostředky
I had a 95 blazer with the same dash. Now got a 94 SS that was my dad's. Looking at installing a complete stereo .. great video sir
Hey, thank you
Great install 👌
Thanks 👍
My 4 door sonoma has the Pioneer DMH- 2660 NEX stereo full 1080 HD
play back video for back up canera 3
way network mode . Great stereo .
Always need a Pioneer fan, I have a whole bin of radios including the dolphin radio
Dude this is an awesome video for several reasons. First you communicated expertly how to install this unit into a 2nd Gen S10. Believe it or not it is not well known that double din radios can go into these trucks. Even the "experts" at the large on line audio stores do not seem to know this.
Secondly you had your very bright sons there to help you. I always enjoy seeing dad's teach their son's things they need to know. I am going to subscribe to your channel for that reason alone.
I have one other comment that I would hope you would not take offense to. Changing out the steering wheel with the airbag for that (albeit very nice looking) sport steering wheel flies in the face of your stated objectives at the beginning of the video- primarily taking safety for your son into top consideration. Air bags are no joke. They save injuries and lives every single day in America.
Seriously thank you for all that. I really appreciate it. And wink wink the 94 didn’t have a factory airbag. I would never compromise the safety of my children. We are looking to expand the channel and that particular son is going to college for mechanical engineering. I’m so proud of him. Thanks again.
I have the same dash in my 96 GMC Sinoma SLS Highrider 4X4 Ive been
wanting to find something to install
like I have in my 02 Sonoma 4X4 4
door . I had Best Buy install my big screen blue tooth stereo and dash speakers , I did my own door speakers 🔊 its great can answer the phone hands free .
Very nice install and review. Did you have to run and mount a mic separate for this or is it inside the radio. Just curious thanks
Sorry, just seeing this. It’s an external mic. I usually mount them up in the corner where the visor meets the A pillar.
I got a JVC kw-r50bts radio and would that dash kit work on my 1996 Chevy s10 extended cab LS two door?
If it’s a double din, then yes. That dash kit works from 94-97
I’m wanting to install a double din on my 94 sonoma also did you just color match all wires? Red to red, yellow to yellow etc.? Or was there a wire that you had to wire another way such as an ignition switch wire?
Stay tuned, got a new radio because I hate that one, we will do an in depth wiring video
What little console is that out of? The cup holder console on the floor.
Factory console
Do you think a 10.1 inch display double din would fit or should I stay with a 7 inch ?
All the ones I’ve seen that were larger than a typical double din usually have a single or double din housing, I think there is room for the screen in front of the Metra kit
Any possible way for a 7" to fit in there? or is 6.2" the biggest you can go?
Good question, the install kit was for a standard double din. I think 7” is still a double din correct? And I believe there was room for modification. Hope that helps
Do you have a video of you installing the subs to the radio?
Not on this radio, but I can def make a video on that
Love that way it looks, I have a 95. Can you please send me all the information about that radio. I want to get one. Thanks and good luck.
Just seeing this, not crazy about this radio. It was cheap and doesn’t have options I really like in my radios. Will be swapping it out eventually.
do you have links to were you purchases kit and stereo?
The install kit is still available on Amazon. I bought it a long time ago. The radio I don’t like but it came from Crutchfield. It was the cheap one and it different from all my others. Wouldn’t recommend this model.
I have a 94 that i am in the middle of 5.3 swapping. I will keep thisbin mind when its time to upgrade the stereo.
Good stuff man, are you making videos?
@NiceGarage truck was originally a 2.2 5 speed. Am going to a 5.3/4l60e. Since I needed a shifter I swapped in a floor shift center console from a Jimmy and some bucket seats from a Cavalier. Seats bolted right in with no mods. Used the S10 seat tracks on the Cavalier seats. I had to drill a couple holes to mount the shifter and console to the floor. Also swapped in a 90s 4 spoke steering wheel because the 94 s10 wheel was UGLY. Swapped in a 8.5 rear from a 02 4.3 5 speed s10 and Blazer dual piston calipers up front. Still very much a work in progress but should be a fun ride when I'm done.
@@shadymaint1did you finish it?
@stevenmeeks8954 not yet, getting close, though. All I've got left is to clean up the wiring and make an exhaust for it. Just installed the fuel system yesterday. New tank, pump, filter and lines. The fuel level gauge even works.
@@stevenmeeks8954got it running and driving. Just have to finish up some wiring. Crappy aftermarket cd player in it doest work. Am looking at a double din Android touch screen.
What radio you recommend on buying? I got a 94 s10 ss too lol except in black
Def not this radio, I’m a huge Pioneer guy but this one is bottom of the barrel. Can’t change the colors of the buttons and just too simple for me. If you were going with pioneer, get a higher model.
@@NiceGarage shooo okay. I just finished installing new powered Latch assembly for the doors. Gonna take out the carpet and clean. Later I'm gonna install the new OEM front dash and other parts.
@@NiceGarageneed an update on the s10 man. Also I'm sure you found out how difficult it is to replace that dash. If you haven't mess with it yet... That dash is glued on to the metal frame. My dash is non existent, so I'm trying to find a donor or pay a auto upholstery n modern the interior dash n door panels.
I got a black 94 ss too lol I’m having problems trying to install a pioneer avic-x940bt
Do you have a link to the steering wheel?
www.grantproducts.com
I don’t believe they sell the same one any longer. I have a bunch of colors but they’re new old stock. Occasionally thought they pop up on eBay
i have a 95 ss my colunm is diff mine new school is that a 94 only
94 didn’t have an airbag, that might be why
I have a 1997 S10 I can't get the radio to come out
You think it’s stuck in place?
@@NiceGarage no it moves around in the place
Probably stuck to the heat/ac control..
How many inches is the dash kit for
Do you mean screen size? Standard double din, so it the screen is bigger than ours, but still standard, it will fit.
Actually I didn’t like that radio so we bought a different one. I’ll do a review of that one and install of new one
