Thank you looking at a Ekiy for my Audi TT with Bose. Great help.
Glad it helped!
Great vid, i have the same auto
Thanks! Appreciate the support
Hey do you have a video about how to install a bose audio system adaptor?
Seems like the rear end audio does not work after fitting a similar unit.
The Bose audio system adapter is the high to low impedance converter from the description. Shown at 0:57. It is installed at 2:00
With that adapter, does the quality of sound system remains the same?
Thanks for the walkthrough. Looking at getting this unit - what are your thoughts after having used it for a few months?
Overall, really great value for money. Headunit is pretty much an andriod tablet, but I primarily just use the Apple Carplay feature. Only 2 coins are: Sometimes when you are displaying Google Maps with the Apple Carplay, it can go sort of fuzzy but if you toggle in and out of it, it goes back to normal. And the bluetooth connection can sometimes have issues with connecting, so I would forget the device and reconnect. So found it was more consistent to just plug in with a cable.
Do you have the link of the adapter with the impedance converters? I have a similar Android radio, but I can't have sound in the rear speakers.
Hi @joserm6271 link for adapter with the impedance converters is: tanjungarage.com/harnessadapter
Stesso problema. Come hai risolto?
i have an question? once head unit has been fitted, how would u remove the head work to carry work out on other units
The head unit is secured with plastic tabs. To remove it, apply pressure from one side to compress the tabs slightly. Then it can be pulled out
What about car having Bose sound system (with subwoofer in trunk? Does it effect the sound quality?
I’m unsure as my car didn’t have subwoofer in the trunk
Hi !
Does the headunit show original parking sensors information ?
Thanks !
Hi! Can’t say for sure, from memory my model didn’t have parking sensor information. But if it was an option might be in “Factory Settings”. All these EKIY units have default passcode of 3368
@@jdmimportsaus Thanks, just wondered if the canbus box supported it, I already tried 2 different models on my headunit and none shows that information 😅
Hello.Thanks for the video.How Many inches is the aftermarket one?
Hi, thanks for watching. Aftermarket one is 9inches
Will the red and white cables at the other adapter not connected?
Only the cables connected in the video needed to be connected for this model Audi A3. The adapter that connects to the android head unit is fairly generic and has lot of additional cables
Thanks for your reply. Rear speakers are working right?
No worries. Yes rear speakers working
I followed your steps. same wires. but the speakers in the back don't work. how do I solve it?
If everything is connected and you installed the high to low impedance converter. Then your model might not have a rear amp. In which case if you remove the impedance converter, the rear speakers should work
Did this just slot straight in or did you have to order a facia
This one that I installed comes with facia. Which has inbuilt plastic tabs that slot straight in
how do you pull out the new headunit if there are no slots for the key removal
Depends on model. Would recommend watching a few other videos, follow one that has OEM same head unit as yours
I know how to remove the OEM one. I am referring to the aftermarket one. Your aftermarket doesn’t have the little slots for the keys.
Aftermarket one is locked in with plastic tabs. To remove I pushed to one side and pulled simultaneously
Does it have apple car play?
Yes it has wireless and wired Apple CarPlay and android auto
what’s the link to the unit?
The head unit is no longer available from the Ali Express supplier I purchased from. I’m not able to recommend any other suppliers as I haven’t personally used them. If purchasing from Ali express be sure to read through the reviews
Cool headunit, but i don't like the way it sticks out like that.
Hi, looked better in person. In my opinion was worth the trade off to have the larger screen. But everyone entitled to their opinion ✌🏽
