Like phenom said, do u have the infinity system in your car already?

Yes I do have the Infinity system.

Yes I do have the Infinity system.

then you need the canbus modual to hear sound, order one off ebay and install it and enjoy your sound

 

[waszuu]

Exactly nothing wrong with the unit, you need the canbus for this to work.

contact seller and ask them about the canbus and get one from them

 

[waszuu]

what about the USB?

If u bought one with the usb stock location option, yes it will work, u still need the canbus modual.
most sellers on ebay (assuming that is where u got it) will add it for around $70, some more and some less.

 

[sgibbs2012]

OK kool peoples. The seller like most of these sellers are off until Feb 17th for their holiday. I'm going sit back and chill untill then. I'll follow up with you guys when I hear something. Thx member for helping me out. I am more than grateful.

Usually the description of the unit will ask if your car is equipped with the stock subwoofer and therefore u need the Canbus module . Hopefully u get worked out

Today is the 18th and the seller should be back from their holiday today. I should hear something by tomorrow. BTW on the sellers page, I didnt see the option to purchase the canbus adaptor. I asked the seller about that though so hopefully they will get back to me soon.

Yeah you have to message/email them either before or with your purchase for add on items.

I'm anxiously waiting for my unit to ship out....

I just pulled the trigger on a china unit today :dead-horse:

I got the one in post #1
As for the back up camera, i took a chance on this
New Sony CCD Car Rear View Reverse Backup Camera for BMW x5 BMW x3 BMW x6 X1 | eBay

Its a Sony, and its only $20 also id figured it'd be easier to install by just drilling a circle hole in the trunk rather a rectangle.

It has its own mic built into the unit.

Phenom,

Sorry if I already asked, but when you activate "voice commands" on smartphone (Siri,etc.), does it automatically switch to the units mic?

Currently w/ base unit when I press Siri button on iPhone, the cars Bluetooth/mic "listens" as I talk (call Mom, or search for pizza place), & Siri's replies are over car speakers.

Hoping the china nav acts the same.

The stock USB port works with this unit. I tried with a 64gb USB stick and it loaded the movie right up and played. Which was surprising. I thought I would of had to use the mini USB cable supplied with the unit to the front of the unit.

Might be a dumb question, but since the stock USB port works, does the "aux in" next to the USB port work also?? I hope so cuz I plan on plugging in an XM adapter in!

I don't know on either question sorry lol

i have a android phone. I'll have to try my voice search and get back to you. I would imagine the aux would no longer work. But I'll try that out too.

Just take out the dummy cover and drill through that. That way you can have the camera centered and use the dummy cover to mount it.

Still waiting to see what NewKiaSX has to say about his unit before I pull the trigger, but definitely in the next few weeks. Here's what I've come across.
KIA K5 DVD Carro , 8" In Dash Car DVD for KIA K5 KIA Optima Car Stereo with GPS Navigator ISDB T Radio RDS Bluetooth USB SD iPod-in Vehicle GPS Units & Equipment from Automobiles & Motorcycles on Aliexpress.com
And I figured I'd go with the backup camera from Mitsu as well...

Was there any wiring to be done between the harness and the Head Unit? or is it completely plug and play?

 

[Readerb]

An Edit to my post, I found a rearview camera that is designed for the Kia K5 specifically, I may choose to take this route instead. $30, but If the angles and lines work specifically for our cars.....this may be a better route.

It appears to have a wireless option as well....if you're into that kind of thing...

Do you mind going outside to your car & finding out? Lol

The suspense is killing me!
