Hey guys!!! Its time to upgrade the interior of my 2005 Jeep wrangler LJ. And the perfect place to start is a nice double din touchscreen radio. This radio has a ton of modern features and looks really cool. The radio itself is a SSL brand, which is ultimately made by Boss Audio.. Its a cheaper model, but very similar to what Ben installed on his JKU. This radio comes with Carplay, Andriod Auto, Bluetooth, Optional reverse camera input, other audio and visual inputs, and more! The only thing it doesnt have is a CD player, which is something i didnt need.
In order to fit a larger touch screen radio, i had to use a DD dash kit from amazon. Along with that, we had to trim out the plastic support piece in the dash above the HVAC controls. But other than that, fitting a new radio into the Jeep was super easy.
Like i said in the video, this setup is less than $300, and its an upgrade you can do in your garage or driveway in just a few hours!
Overall, im super excited on how this turned out, and its time to move on to the next project!!! Thank you for watching and stay tuned for more Jeep videos soon!

What are some of your favorite interior upgrades you have done to you Jeep?! Let me know below!!!

Richard Sandstrom says:

I did a 7 inch motorized fold out single din Pioneer NEX3400. It is nice cause the Jeep is topless all Summer and it hides away when I'm not in the Jeep. Plus you can still use in in the tucked position if you get stuck in the pop up rain storm!

Hugh Jass says:

Really helpful tutorial, been looking everywhere for a proper installation. Just ordered it for my 01

Joe Uceda says:

I did the double din upgrade on my daughter’s Jeep around the same time. You really have to get crafty with the frame attachment. I actually plastic welded some brackets because the 99 radio mount was useless. I used an Alpine ILX with the wireless Apple CarPlay. So nice!

VoodooCrab says:

Cute outfits!

Ric Gomez says:

I need the radio please. 2765 S Federal Blvd Denver Co 80236. Thank you

Jesse says:

be careful of some of those wires, cant tell if theyre bare but those blue and blue/white wires i see dangling put out 12v when the radio is on and if they hit ground inside the dash it could pop a fuse or ruin something

Dylan Romine says:

Only thing id need one of those radios for is off road maps and backup cam

Dylan Romine says:

That's too much radio for a radio

Park Spinney says:

Thanks for the great idea I just put the same radio in my 2006 TJ 🙂

Brandon Richmond says:

Did you guys already get rid of that radio? I'm still using the factory stereo and I'm in school so would love to put that one in my LJ.

Braulio Cruz says:

Hello Fresh is being advertized here due to your Adobo feature! 🙂

RANDALL Foster says:

I just love the family life parts that just pop up , like the the two perfect kids and just how do you say this

Dhark Undercity says:

How is the new head unit holding up now that it's 11/2020?

John Ortlip says:

Absolutely no disrespect intended, quite the opposite, Texas serves you well. You are sexier than ever. Again, no disrespect

SoManyBasses says:

Hey Cassie, what kind of wheels are those? I really like the look.

Dan Cook says:

That's to funny.. just bought a jeep with the same radio. Made me giggle.

CMSgt Jason H says:

Just bought this exact setup after watching this video. I was hoping you might be able to help with a question. I bought the dash kit with the supplied harness but the wires are not tagged and there was no schematic either… I’m stuck….any help would be soooo appreciated. Thanks in advance!!

Andrew Glover says:

Any thoughts on the radio yet .Thinking about putting it in my jeep tj unlimited.

J Cruz says:

Thank you so much for the video and the links. I’ve been wanting to do that on my 03 Sahara. I was wondering if you could update the link for the SSL radio every time i go to it some equalizer comes up. I just want to make sure the same things you bought will fit my jeep. Thank you again and have a blessed day.

Matt Barrett says:

Much cuter than Lite Brite….. and understands what tools are for which adds to the channel vs watching the other girl burn through her husband’s money at the mechanic’ shop

tonosty says:

Can I have the scissors?

Jesseb Videos says:

I can not find the DD988ACP which is very important as I am in Costa Rica and I want to make sure what I order fits my 1997 TJ, help!!

LIAM TAYLOR says:

Where did you get the wiring harness?

I'm just here for the yoga pants
