Sounds like a lot of wiring. I’m use to installing units with vehicles that
don’t have OnStart or a steering wheel control. I just got a unit with
DVD/Nav i just got to buy the harness “and” interfaces now. I just gotta
check if the unit gots the 3.5mm remote jack behind it. Shouldnt be that
hard to wire up huh?
I have the pioneer avh x8500bhs and I’m trying to connect the steering
wheel controls to a 2007 Monte Carlo ss .. Besides the 3.5 mm wire is there
anything else I need to connect to my head unit. It’s not syncing up. Can
someone help me?
Great!!… do you know where can I buy it?
Am abroad!. Does Amazon sell it?… how do I have to find it on web?
Great vid. Can you consider explaining how to do this same setup, bit with
a head unit that does not have the 3.5mm? The Jensen VX6020 has 3 Leads.
SWC A, SWC B, SWC ground. I know you use the 3.5mm female adapter. There is
no instructions on how to wire the AWSC to the head unit.
I’m buying ASWC and this same Head unit today! I liked both and by
coincidence this guy has both here, it’s gonna make my install easier
Lol he looks super chubby
Wow! Car audio @ it’s best. Caraudiofabrication perfectionist. You
definitely have a student here.
You are right, I realize it is impossible to make an affordable
vehicle-specific harness but still, considering how much work and time a
buyer still needs to invest in connecting these so-called “vehicle
specific” harnesses, their prices could be lower. My soldering skills was a
bit rusty but you are right, after a little warm up, it came out decent but
for most inexperienced DIYers, I wouldn’t say the process was THAT basic,
especially considering the very basic instructions they provide.
You made this look so easy, but in my girlfriends 2006 chevy malibu, i
installed the kenwood ddx319 and the axxcess interface, properly, it
recogonized the radio and when i went to hit the volume button up to make
it programmed forsure, thd volume kept going up… and wouldnt go back
down… im going to reattempt this, but i didnt get the onstar portion
since her car didnt come equipt with it. You did an awesome job though!!
Soldering is needed? After spending $40 for the GM with Bosch system
specific harness and $50 for the wheel control adapter, I do not want to
heard that I am still required to do anything but plug stuff in! At this
day and age with all the ridiculously overpriced adapters and harnesses,
you’d think the process would be more basic! Fking shame.
need better lighting in your videos
Some of this footage was from awhile ago, working on it!
Wow mark, been searching for something like this. I have a 03′ buick
lesabre w/ onstar, so this kit will work for my vehicle? thanx mark.
hey have a? i have a 2006 pontiac grand prix base no on star but steering
controls. i ordered the pioneer avp h 1400 dvd5.8 with the aswc for my car.
my ? is when you installed that stereo did you have to run the radio 12v to
a fuse to make it turn on and save memory? i have a scosche wire kit for it
but i have herd you need to find a 12v power any help would be awsome
thanks!!
Thanks man!
Thanks!
how did you bypass the monsoon amp.
Great job with your videos. Can you one day show how to put a tablet in a
factory radio place. thanks
Consider the fact that every car has a different harness. No company could
afford to have a device that comes prewired ready to plug into every
imaginable car. Too many options out there. We are lucky they are able to
keep costs down by having all the programming for all the different head
units and all the different vehicles in one unit! IMO the process is Basic,
if you don’t want to solder get crimp connectors, but don’t be sad when
they fail.
Nice vid. I have a question. I have a 2012 Malibu with the regular 6
speaker setup…i got a double din pioneer dvd deck installed at a shop and
they used the same onstar interface you have,so i boughf the swc also and
tryed to install it myself since i figured it was plug and play.well
there’s no led light indicator coming on,and the sterring wheel control
works but it only skips tracks up on all buttons and just mute works, no
volume or track down…was my onstar devicd installed wrong?thx.
wow been wat hing your videos for a while and i upgraded to a double did 2
days ago and my steering wheen conntrolls came in so i looked up this vid
on how to install them and now i realise i got the same pioneer double din
as you have for demo in this video haha nice 🙂 anyway great vid man keep
it up
Great vid!
What type of solder do you use?
Hey mark i have a 04 grand prix GTP and i want to install the pioneer
avic-n1 that comes with the navigation and ill like to know if you can help
me on how can i find the speed sence wire that goes from the car’s computer

Glad to hear. I’m putting in a Pioneer AVH-X8500BHS, thanks for your review
of the 5500 as it’s almost the same! (but I want the extra Android
functionality of the 8500)
