Setting up a modern HU with Android Auto / Apple Carplay
Hello,
so I need to install a new Head Unit and thought I'd give it a go myself. First, the basic question: Has anyone installed a modern HU with Andoid Auto / Apple Carplay that also fit with the lid? Secondly, the situation: 2 identical 1997 Euro SVX (both sold in Norway) with 6 speakers (2 rear, 2 door, 2 tweeters) from factory. Both have some crappy aftermarket **** installed. Car B (Parts car): Had a JVC 4x40. Is now taken apart. Original harness cut off, cables joined to the JVC harness with butt connectors. No pink cable to be found. Has antenna extension cable. No original cage (hence no lid). Car A (Driver): Has an unknown Kenwood which sounds like ****. Harness situation unknown. Has original cage and functioning lid. Unlikely to have pink cable. Aftermarket mic already installed. Current plan: Install a Sony XAV-AX100 (4x55w) Extend USB cable into ashtray (I have a spare I can ruin) and create a fastener for the phone. Questions: 1) If the original harness is gone on Car A, should I just redo the butt connectors and wire directly to the Sony harness? 2) If the Kenwood harness situation is well done, is there any converter to the Sony harness? 3) I don't plan on any extra amps or woofer. Is anyone aware of a more suitable "bare bones" unit (which still has the Android Auto / Apple car play?
