So I got an auto pumpkin Android 6.2 double din head unit. I bought a tan bezel from a user on S10Forum and painted it duplicolor graphite, which by the way isn't even close. I have had it for about 2 months.
Here it is with the torque app running. https://blazerforum.com/forum/attach...ine=1433778458 It is using the Passat gauge theme which is blue with red needles. It looks better than in the picture, I guess my camera washes it out. Here is a list of pros and cons Pros: double din touch screen Android OS GPS video/audio input iPod control 2 USB inputs backup camera Wifi 3g expandability runs all android apps Bluetooth (the phone call quality is very good) AM/FM Cons: The music player sucks! No shuffle option doesn't work with iPod classic. built in i Go GPS is awful sub woofer output with no sub woofer control (that's almost pointless) The blue amp turn on / power antenna stopped working. I had to use my ignition on wire for my amp. if you have the ignition on and then start the car it will automatically start playing my thumb drive from the beginning of the list. This wouldn't be so bad if I could shuffle it. No satellite radio option. |

Grabbed this guy from the u pull it for about $5. it was faded grey so I hit it with some black interior paint. The carpet sure likes to suck up paint. I used almost an entire can.

Since I don't have any use for a stock tape deck and my aftermarket pocket didn't fit right, I figured I could make constructive use of the space. So I got a sheet of 1/8" ABS plastic and some epoxy.
So I pulled the cover off and made a cardboard template for the back https://blazerforum.com/forum/attach...ine=1433784475 https://blazerforum.com/forum/attach...ine=1433784475 https://blazerforum.com/forum/attach...ine=1433784475 Then I traced it onto the ABS. https://blazerforum.com/forum/attach...ine=1433784475 https://blazerforum.com/forum/attach...ine=1433784475 Then I cut it out with a dremel tool. https://blazerforum.com/forum/attach...ine=1433784475 Test fit (required some fine tuning) https://blazerforum.com/forum/attach...ine=1433784475 https://blazerforum.com/forum/attach...ine=1433784475 I didn't like the corners sticking up so I used a little heat and bent them down. https://blazerforum.com/forum/attach...ine=1433784475 Then I epoxied it in place and drilled a hole to add . That way I can plug my USB drive in and I can connect external video using a 1/8 jack. https://blazerforum.com/forum/attach...ine=1433784475 https://blazerforum.com/forum/attach...ine=1433784475 https://blazerforum.com/forum/attach...ine=1433784475 I also plan on adding a knob for my sub woofer, and moving my seat heater switches here. |

My tail lights were getting very hazy. So I decided to see how a headlight polishing kit would work on them. It turned out ok. I might try it again with a power ball and rubbing compound.

Decided to shorten my Antenna. It was a very easy mod. I just taped off the area to cut and used a dremel with a cut off wheel. then topped it off with a vacuum cap.

Finally posted the touchscreen! Looking good!
Question: How did you get your ipod to play. I got mine to charge but not play. Its a nano 4th Answers: Replace iGo. Yes it sucks and my map files corrupted. Music player also sucks, no shuffle as you mentioned. I installed the default android music player. Music buttons don't work with it (yet), but I hit shuffle and play when I start up then minimize it for Torque |
It doesn't recognize my ipod.
|
Ok then I'll keep tinkering as I think o things and report back if I figure it out
|
It reads my nano but it will play a song bit have the artist and song listed wrong. I am not sure why it won't recognize by Ipod classic.
|
How do you get it to play from the nano? I haven't gotten mine to play yet, only charge.
If I can get it playing I can start diagnosing the song list issue |
