Dasaita Wireless CarPlay Stereo: Honda Civic 2006–2011 Full Install

0:02Full instructions on how to do it. Next up is the microphone.

0:22What's up guys, it's your boy John. We're back again here with another video for one of my most popular videos

0:28All my channel the Honda Civic. Now the Honda Civic over there. It's the eighth gen Honda Civic

0:35So if you have a specific list of this similar, then you're gonna be set. We have a DeSyda

0:4164 gigs

0:43It's gonna be a lot. I'm gonna do a quick unboxing. Should be pretty quick. Oh

0:49There you go

0:51Now with these DeSydas, they also come with a full

0:56instructions on how to do it

0:59Boom boom look at everything's colored everything's really nice

1:03For sure nice and thick

1:06It goes over Android Auto now that

1:11Now I got to play extra little scented, but that's just for me

1:16And you're gonna chip some extra harnesses with the power cable and then the unit itself

1:27look at that

1:29and then we have

1:32more cables

1:36Really cool now

1:38I'm going to cut to a video of me

1:42Uninstalling it on this car right here and then where I cut it to

1:46Installing the new one. So let's go rewind back time when I first uninstalled this one

1:54So let's take it apart and move on from there. Okay, don't turn the car on but have it on the on position

2:01I then move this to we're gonna have to move all this out

2:06So let

2:26You can take it out first the brakes it might not make you it might not let you take it out. Okay, just like that

2:34All right, so there's a little panel right here. I don't know if you can see that there's a little two notches

2:38You can a little pick out right here. We're gonna use this plastic tool. So

2:42It'll prevent damaging the thing itself when you open like this. It just pumps right out

2:48I like using a little I just like to use my wrist to twist that way. I'm not damaging anything and that's this is gonna reveal

2:55Two eight millimeter bolts

2:57The bolts are faced this way and that's what holds this plastic trim in

3:02So here's a little bolt right here

3:05You can see there's a little washer and an eight so it is an eight

3:09The only thing is it's really an awkward position. So I use a little tool

3:14So you don't need this tool, but we use this tool to basically grab on to the spot right here beep, but

3:22We pretty much have to just remove these panel pieces and remove the whole top and

3:26To do that make sure there's no coins in here and you should be able to just pull

3:31You can either use your hand to pull so we have that out try to try to get the angle here

4:22So we're gonna pretty much remove all these plugs

4:25For the HVAC system hazard buttons if you aren't sure where it goes. I highly recommend

4:37Taking a picture of it. It'd be very careful. I especially recommend this part so plastic on plastic

4:55It does wear a little bit but metal on plastic

4:58That's gonna do some damage. So be careful with the metal bracket. Yeah, that's how I just want to have it set it on your

5:11Shiffon I'm gonna use it to prevent from scratching too. Yeah, just place it like right here

5:23Yeah, just place it like have it rest on that

5:32That was easy. Oh yeah, then we have the HVAC one

5:42So there you go. We have the head unit out. It's pretty heavy

5:46But we still need to transfer the HVAC systems. So we're gonna get we're gonna unscrew these four bolts

5:53The hazard has two bolts

5:55the passenger airbag light is a two bolts and then the fans are actually another three bolts

6:01so we're gonna unscrew that and

6:04Yeah, we'll do that right now

6:06And welcome back to present day John

6:10Anyways, we wrapped everything up in terms of removing everything and I just reinstalled all the pieces from the original unit

6:18back into this new one

6:21vents and everything I did have to sand one thing a little bit down

6:25So this bolt right here kind of stuck out too far far

6:30So I just kind of like grind it a little bit so then the fitment is more flush for some reason

6:36That was just the case

6:38Everything else is pretty chill the passenger air light. I just have

6:44kind of chillin inside here because there's no spot for it anymore

6:49But yeah, let's just hook up the wiring

6:52All right, so we are gonna be opening power cables for the wiring and

7:00You have this one big one that goes to your OEM head unit and

7:06That's pretty much gonna be the majority of the work

7:10You're also gonna have the smaller one right here, which you're gonna plug in as well and then there is antenna

7:20This is for the AC unit

7:23And you just got to fish it to the back of this and plug it into

7:32There's this very fish

7:34But you just plug it in right here that a being that a boom now it's plugged in

7:44You also have this antenna one right here

7:55I'm gonna plug in the antenna. The antenna is usually the shortest. That's why I try to do it last

8:01But I wanted to show you guys how it looks

8:06antenna

8:08Now there's not a lot of give and you want to plug that antenna right here

8:14Now there's a bunch of other accessories who haven't plugged in but these are the main ones that can get you started like

8:21Basically it going

8:23So I'm gonna plug it in and just roughly put it in

8:27So bluetooth pair

8:51I'm on my iPhone 15 Pro and I'm just going to pair it like how you pair any bluetooth device

8:58Yes, search it right there

9:01Pops up the car kit and the password 0-0-0

9:06pair

9:07boom my iPhone's connected and with these modern

9:11Android head units. It's generally

9:15Pretty simple. That's it

9:17So now that we know that the head unit works we can do all the accessories

9:23The accessories comes with things like the GPS antenna the Wi-Fi antenna when it comes to the Ford G cellular kind of thing

9:34Ox here's a little like SIM card slot. We can add all these new features in

9:40Backup cameras. I don't have a backup camera, but we could add it here

9:45This is for subwoofer RCA jacks

9:53There's a ton of accessories

9:56More USBs

9:58More USBs

10:01There's a lot of accessories that we can add um

10:10Let's do the

10:13GPS antenna

10:16Because that's useful to have

10:18It's gonna be this little baggy right here

10:21And you could route it all the way on like the top, but

10:28Honestly from my experience because I use car play a lot and when I need to use sell you

10:34like the

10:38Bill 10 GPS units. I just put it right here on the top

10:43I just taped it there and

10:46That's generally good enough

10:48So I just have it taped right there

10:53Next off we have the 4G antenna. I'm not gonna use that, but

10:57It's in the bag. It's shaped like this

11:02And that's if you want to use the cellular

11:24Next off is the microphone. I am going to fish it on top of the steering wheel

11:32Which is located right here and I'm just gonna fish it behind the trip panels

11:37Oh

11:39Nothing really to show there besides kind of just sneaking the wire

11:44Through and through

11:50So that's what I'm gonna do. I'm just gonna snake the wire

11:54Or people say fish fish the wire

12:54All right, the next thing I'm gonna do is gonna fish some of these wires the USBs

13:00And you can just tuck it through this little hole right here

13:03And

13:05And into the glove box. You don't need to reboot the glove box or anything

13:09There is a hole that's adequate size

13:14We can just slip it right in

13:17Makes it a little bit easier

13:18So I have three little speeds coming out and you want to plug it in

13:25To

13:26Great thing about the sight is it only fits one way so like this four pin one right here

13:32It goes right here

13:35And then this purple one there's a little notch on the side

13:39Is brown one

13:44If you were to take it is

13:46Starting to be a little room restriction

13:55You just have to plug it in

13:59I forgot to mention you have to grab these white clips from your OEM unit and transfer it to the new one

14:06To pop them out

14:08So you just pop down a little bit

14:11To prop them out you just grab it from the top

14:15And then slowly bend it

14:18And I'll slide it right off and you can pop it into your new piece

14:24We'll do it again

14:26Do it for angle

14:29Slowly now they're plastic so you don't want to break them

14:32It's just be gentle

14:38Sometimes they shoot out too so

14:45That way you'll have that really good fit made

14:50All back in your speeds right here just clean it up a little bit

15:14These are you just want to do so

15:23And Tata it works

15:26This is the new UI it's actually pretty brilliant

15:30Screens insanely bright

15:32Look at that brightness

15:35All right, so here is the UI in all of its glory

15:39I insanely think this is one of the best UIs for an android head unit

15:44It's simple, clean, it's not cluttered

15:47You have your little widgets on the side which I like

15:50And the screen is so bright and vibrant

15:53In person, it looks great

15:55I need to get a little lower a little bit on my camera

15:58There you go, so hopefully you guys can see that a little bit better

16:00Let me turn this off

16:03A little dome light

16:05But yeah, here it is

16:06You have a bunch of stuff

16:08All these little applications

16:09That's very similar to what you would find in a tablet

16:14But there's also car specific stuff like the wheel

16:18This car doesn't have screen wheel controls or anything

16:21But you can add that if you wanted to

16:24The amplifier

16:25All that goodness radio

16:27There's some face to some ways and stuff like that

16:30It has the built-in navigation as well

16:33CarPlay

16:36So here's CarPlay looks amazing

16:39We'll go through what I listen to and what not

16:45Android Auto, I don't have that connected

16:47I don't know exactly what this is

16:48Oh, so it looks like some kind of screen mirroring

16:50If you're into that

16:52You can screen mirror

16:53Let's go through the settings

16:56And very similar

16:59All right, so this is the settings

17:01Let's go to there's network

17:02Which was something you

17:04Basically internet connection

17:06Bluetooth car

17:08Enable CarPlay

17:09LED settings

17:11Now that's what the term when you have your headlights on

17:13What color of these things are right here

17:16And you can change it to red, green, white

17:20I think we'll just keep it to white

17:22Because a lot of the heads

17:23The Civic's stuff is like white

17:26Amp-steer wheel controls

17:29No steering wheel controls on this car

17:32But you could add it

17:34Amp-fire

17:35If you really want to tune the music

17:40Navigation is

17:43All this extra stuff

17:47Voice assistant

17:50It's on Google by default

17:53Driving settings is probably what you want to see

17:55If you're watching Netflix or YouTube

17:57And the screen is black

17:58Make sure it says watch video

18:01While driving

18:02You can have that toggled on

18:04You can do other stuff right here

18:06I don't really recommend driving

18:09With watching video by the way

18:11It's more for your passengers

18:13Extra settings

18:15Auto-sleep delay

18:16So

18:17Similar to your phone

18:18When you press power

18:21On your phone it goes to sleep

18:22And when you press it

18:23It instantly turns on

18:25Same thing with this

18:26If you go into the store

18:28The gas station or something like that

18:30Boom

18:31It's already back on

18:33If you go to the grocery shop

18:35And you spend 20 minutes

18:37You go back in your car

18:38Instantly it turns back on

18:41And you can set this to

18:4330 seconds one minute

18:45Or five minutes one hour

18:47How to just have it auto

18:48It does a good job on auto

18:50To just kind of handle this business

18:52If you have a really weak battery

18:53Then just have it like

18:55One minute or something like that

18:58Back-up camera stuff

18:59Display voltage

19:00You can have it right here

19:01So you can

19:03Display of whether your car can start or not

19:05If you're using this too much

19:06While your car is off

19:08Kind of like we're doing right now

19:10Notifications

19:11Wallpapers

19:13All this stuff is kind of boring

19:15About machine

19:19It's using the Android version 12

19:22That's the kernel build number

19:29Using

19:31There's like quad core

19:32Octocore I'm guessing

19:34This is the Snapdragon

19:35But it uses the A73

19:37Two gigahertz quad

19:38And then another quad core

19:40A53 more efficiency cores

19:42And then it has six gigs of RAM

19:44Which is a lot

19:47For a head unit like this

19:49You're not going to ever have any slowdowns

19:50This thing is buttery smooth

19:52And the screen is just absolutely beautiful

19:57Again for most of this life

20:00This is my cousin's car that I did it for him

20:02He only uses car play

20:04And he loves how snappy

20:05Fast responsive

20:06He just wants to get in the car

20:08Doesn't have to plug anything in

20:10And just go

20:11So with this new head unit

20:12It's going to be

20:13Faster

20:14It's going to sound better

20:15The displays the main upgrades

20:17Over previous generation head units

20:20So if you had like a 2018 head unit

20:23If you want a more crispier screen

20:26It's down to your time to upgrade

20:27This IPS panel

20:29And there's like this QLED

20:30And there's a lot of things that they're adding nowadays

20:33That I'll put a specs to cheat down below

20:35But I'm telling you the quality of the screen

20:37It's just so amazing

20:39Like I don't know if I can show you

20:41How good this looks

20:43I mean you got the calculator screen in the back

20:46But this is just so

20:48It looks like

20:492000 like 1080p

20:51Like shrunk down

20:52To such a small screen

20:54Making it look absolutely amazing

20:56But yeah

20:57Thank you guys for watching

20:58This head unit

21:01Bravo

21:01Good job Dessider
