  • Head unit installs all seem complicate, but a professional style is super easy to achieve even with working steering wheel controls.
    Join me in this video as I show you all the steps needed to install a head unit into my 2006 Holden Commodore VZ. The only tools you will need is a single Phillips head screw driver to complete this task.
    Thank you for watching this video, please share this around. it really helps :)

    Hi James, inspiring video. I have a Pioneer DDin system and have the Aeropro secondary harness. Do I need to conect the other wiring (park brake, reverse etc)?

    Will upgrading the head unit and speakers have a big difference from the old stock system?

    Hi, Can we connect Pioneer AVH-X7850TB ro holden vs Calai 1995 steering wheel and which ISO need?

    Great Informative vid mate. To be said, the original stereo really needs 2 ppl to remove it easier. Mine was an absolute bastard to get out. Ended up just ripping the whole unit face off and prying it out. My Iso Kit has the front and rear speakers confused which is an easy enough fix, but just so some are aware you can run into a few issues with the balance and fader settings. On my other Commy I have the Iso+Aeropro unit and if I hit vol+ too fast or hold volume+ it skips tracks and or skips to radio, if i double tap the mode button too fast it can also do some crazy stuff! But If i use the buttons slower it all works fine. Do you know how to get steering wheel controls working without the Aeropro dongle? Some units have it built in (So I've read) But I'm having no joy with a JVC That's meant to have it built in. Trying to save $100 but looking more like the Aeropro kit will be needed. Keep up the good work mate. Cheers.

      Hi there. No reason really just personal preference. Liked the smaller form factor and storage extra pocket

    Hey man I just put a sony single din Headunit in my car and when I turn the car off the Headunit doesn’t turn off it stays on and when I do turn it off is disconnects my phone from the blue tooth completely

    • @JamesMayer125
      @JamesMayer125  Před 2 lety

      Hey mate, Did you use the plug and play type deal like in the video? Or do the wiring yourself? If the wiring was done yourself you may have mixed a connection with the constant 12v wire and the ignition 12v wire. As for the Bluetooth problem I’m unsure on that one sorry but I’d say the best option would be to contact Sony. Hope this helps :)
