Hey Great video, is There a 2012 tl acura video comino up anytime? Or is there any is it even posible to actually change mine to a touch screen one sincr mine has no nav
Will i lose any speakers with exact same set up?
Ordered your kit to install pioneer with CarPlay in my sons car. Worked great! Followed your video here and we knocked it out together in a couple hours. Everything works perfectly! Thanks!
What about the Bluetooth instead of the Apple wire can you still connect your phone to it ???
Really Great Video. I followed everything but got lost on the parking bypass. Could not figure out what it was for and which wires are bypassed? Thanks Mike.
I have a 2006 Acura Tl no nav im having the no sound issue i get that i have to wire tap the red and yellow wire but to what wire?
can i connect amp turn on to cig lighter or do i splice it with the pwr antenna wire.. stereo harness doesn't seem to have amp turn on wire
I got your adapter but I have a jvc stereo . How can I make it work ?
This may be a dumb question, how do I remove center console for automatic shifter? I am super excited about ordering this kit. You will hear from me soon for sure!
So what type of wire harness do I need with an Atoto A6 unit?
Just installed your harness in my new TL today, love it! Works great. Had to unplug the center speaker as it was buzzing, but easy to do when the hvac vents are already off.
How would this unit work if I wanted to install a backup camera to go along? Is that also plug and play or need special harness/ wiring?
also does the size of the screen matter that I am purchasing?
thanks looking forward to buying this complete kit soon

Order from y’all and got my kit quickly even during the holidays! Just had it installed by a car audio shop and the front driver speakers seem to not be firing and there’s a faint audible buzzing noise coming from the middle dashboard speaker…any thoughts on your end? I’ll be asking the shop about it too of course just curious. Thanks!
Seeing all of those wires make my head spin
When you bypass or wire tap the red and yellow for sound , where do you connect it on the a/m harness?
What screws did you use to mount dash kit to the sides of the radio
What if i am using a Chinese made Android radio with its own harness will your harness work with the factory harness and i can wire in the Android radio or your harness only works with that radio
About all I need to know is how to get Bluetooth controls functioning in my car.
