AFTERPAY

Save yourself a hefty fine for touching your phone whilst driving! This could pay for itself.

Thanks to @doweyy for original Supercheap post, using code AFTERPAY for 30% off on purchases over $200, JVC KMW760BT double DIN touch screen head unit with Android Auto and apple Carplay that was originally $420, comes down to $294.

Deal ends midnight 20th March today, so get in quick! Other head units also available but this does everything I need and don't feel the need to spend more than I need in this climate!

Cheapest Android Auto/apple Carplay head unit from a big brand I've seen for a while, if not all time?

iDatalink Maestro compatible for those with steering wheel controls in their car, usually not found in lower line/cheaper/older models.

Front and rear camera inputs, only one USB input unfortunately.

Don't forget to add Aerpro APP8KE4 harness from head unit to ISO for $12.59 and go to Aerpro website to look up your car for ISO to your vehicle (also all $12.59 after discount). You will need both of these for installation.

    Great post mate.

    I used 8% off supercheap gift cards (suncorp rewards) to bring it down ~$270, and then another couple bucks off with cashback.

  • mastahpee on 20/03/2020 - 05:26

    Great post! Anybody knows if this easy to install by yourself (for one with limited knowledge in electronics)? How much would it cost to have it installed in the shop? Cheers.

    • evocable on 20/03/2020 - 05:41

      Head units ar easy to install, with those aerpro adapters it's literally plug and play, it you don't use those you'll need to follow a wiring diagram but still very straightforward. Hardest part is probably taking apart the dash (depending on your vehicle)

      • ablqadir on 20/03/2020 - 06:45

        I was always wondering if that easy or hard part. You made my day, I haven taken out the factory unit once. Few years ago Roadside assistance changed car battery and radio gets locked, he asked me to get the code from Ford dealer,I called them and wasn't successful. They were asking to book appointment, which was few weeks away. In desperation I saw few YouTube videos, once removed there was a sticker which had the security code.

      • juzza87 on 20/03/2020 - 07:12

        I thought the same but I have an obscure car, a Kia Rondo and the parts listed on Aerpro's website were incorrect and half not needed for the install. The main harness connector was a completely different size, I ended up needing to solder everything in, only needed the factory camera retention kit but I feel like that was just an overpriced resistor. More common cars will have a better time.

        Also a consideration if you're going for wireless Apple CarPlay you need to have a speed sensor cable running into the head unit for it to function and steering wheel controls can get a bit messy (and with these big touch screens it's almost a necessity so you don't crash trying to concentrate on what you're touching on the screen).

  • dna4 on 20/03/2020 - 06:33

    Is there anyway to check whether it's compatible with 2011 cx7?

    • PinzVidz on 20/03/2020 - 11:44
      +7

      Yes it will go in the CX-7. You'll need a fascia and antenna adapter. You have the option of relocating the reverse camera image from the trip computer screen to the head unit with a cam retention kit. If you have a Bose system, you'll also need an amp retention kit. You won't need a Steering Wheel Control interface, the JVC has it built-in.

      See here and here for parts listings.

    Don't be scared by the JVC brand (which is also Kenwood), they have crappy Chinese rebranded TVs at Big W but their car audio stuff is great, I've got a JVC KW-M950BW in my car and love it.

  • RangaWal on 20/03/2020 - 07:41

    When you connect an Android phone via USB does it automatically switch screens to Android Auto?

    Does it have dual USB connectivity?

    • NoApostrophePlurals on 20/03/2020 - 22:27

      I can't answer your first enquiry, bur the second one, as stated in the post, only has one USB.

      • RangaWal on 20/03/2020 - 22:34

        Thanks - I actually meant to type dual bluetooth connectivity!

    Awesome post though op, thanks

  • placard on 20/03/2020 - 09:18

    Can someone please advise what difference there is between this unit and say the more expensive Kenwood DDX919WS?

    Apart from wireless connectivity anything else? Like does it have a better screen or better features?

    • PinzVidz on 20/03/2020 - 12:01
      +2

      The DDX919WS has capacitive touch screen, 720p resolution, Hi-Res audio, disc player, gesture control, more inputs/outputs, Toyota 200mm size, Kenwood dashcam control.

      Chalk and cheese basically. To be expected as there's a big price difference.

      • placard on 20/03/2020 - 13:29

        I realise now the WS is for most modern Toyotas.

        In terms of standard double din size for an older Toyota, can you suggest a decent one with capacitative screen?

        I don't need wireless, dash cam control etc.

        • PinzVidz on 20/03/2020 - 14:08
          +5

          Kenwood are due to release their 2020 range any day now. This should drive the price down of discontinued models like the DDX9019DABS (disc) and DMX8019DABS (mechless), both very decent units with capacitive screens. The non-wireless AA/ACP units are resistive screens.

          Other units with capacitive screens;

          Sony XAV-AX5000 $524.30 with code

          JVC KWM-745DBT $419.30 with code

          I don't recommend Pioneer, they have been poor quality for a number of years now.

    • corbz on 20/03/2020 - 09:55

      You've got it!

      Have a look at youtube/forums and some good googling and you'll be fine.

      Ask a friend who is knowledgeabe as well, it's a common first thing to modify in your car. Most car people are happy to help someone getting their toes wet.

    been looking for something like this, but think i might hold out for a DAB+ radio, (and built in GPS would be better than having to use screenshare on the phone)

    would love to get something like this, but it looks like my car double din slot is slightly smaller than standard, and something like this most likely wouldn't fit.(maybe a bit of sanding of the edges of the unit could help)

    • homersyd on 20/03/2020 - 11:06

      your ebay unit looks better in terms of specs and for not much more… so tempted…but not sure if I should buy brand names locally for the warranty/reliability.

    • PinzVidz on 20/03/2020 - 11:49

      Don't touch any of the eBay no-name/unknown brand name Chinese shitters. They're rubbish.

      • wisc on 20/03/2020 - 13:28

        Ive bought two before, one still going strong, (single din with 7 inch touch screen, dvd player, gps etc) - sold the other one with the car, but from memory, i think it was starting to have a few issues.

        there are some Chinese units better than other units though. have to read the fine print.

        id risk it again.

    • Vermin76 on 20/03/2020 - 12:39

      Read reviews on these, this is what I will be installing. Has GPS inbuilt and has inputs for DAB+ and more.

      • wisc on 20/03/2020 - 13:43

        android 6 though…

        and also i don't believe it has a DAB built in, many of them have support for DAB, but you need to buy an external dongle. you can see its supported by USB on this device.

  • bogak on 20/03/2020 - 10:08

    the head unit has 2 USB ports btw, looks like a great unit, 4v pre-outs. Not a fan of resistive touch screens but oh well.

    • placard on 20/03/2020 - 10:23

      Actually I think I've decided against this. Just looked at resistive vs capacitave comparison, it would be so annoying having resistive screen.

        Thanks for commenting. This is exactly what I was wondering.

      • bogak on 20/03/2020 - 11:10

        Capacitive head units cost a lot so something to consider if you really want a capacitive head unit. I've tried a few at audio stores and yeah it's actually quite annoying to use but I guess you'll normally won't be touching it much so not so bad I guess. I tend to just use voice commands to skip tracks nowadays.

  • lzwdavid on 20/03/2020 - 11:03

    Hi Op, May I ask after connected via Aerpro APP8KE4 and the iso to car harness, does it can achieve steering wheel control on my 2013 Corolla hatch? Or still need another adapter for steering wheel control specifically for the car?

      SWC's in a ZRE-182R Corolla are in the factory loom 28 pin plug. If you've fitted a JVC or Kenwood, they have built-in SWC capability, use this chart to determine the wires to solder/insulate to.

  • Kontiki on 20/03/2020 - 11:25

      Yes. You'll need a fascia, antenna adapter, ISOs and reverse camera retention kit (if it has factory reverse camera). See here and here for suitable parts.

  • Jaff on 20/03/2020 - 15:01

    Anyone knows if it can fit in a Nissan Xtrail 2015?

    • PinzVidz on 20/03/2020 - 15:11

      Can't see why not. I don't touch Nissans with a 100 foot barge pole, so I can't recommend specific parts to suit, but here's the list of parts available here and here.

  • Ranagade on 20/03/2020 - 15:06

              @Ranagade: JVC Kenwood make specific units for various manufacturers in the US and Europe. That model is designed to work with VAG vehicles. They're not sold here.

  • Gracey on 20/03/2020 - 15:49

    Thanks OP for the post. Just FYI, I got a call from the store to advise it was the ex-display model that I would be getting. She went on to say this will be the case with all stores (maybe only QLD?) as its a special to run out the model. YMMV

    • OkayFray on 20/03/2020 - 16:03

      I found out in store, decided to go with it anyway

  • trevbreak on 20/03/2020 - 16:04
    +2

    Picked up one in their last sale - was very reluctant about going back to JVC after my last head unit (approx. 5 years ago) was mediocre at best.
    This has been brilliant - sound quality is great, screen feels nearly capacitive to the touch thanks to a nice smooth coating, and it's done exactly what I wanted which was to give me Android Auto to avoid the $1k fine they've introduced in Qld.

    Much better audio grunt and quality than my previous Pioneer AVH-285BT (which is only a few years old)

  • OkayFray on 20/03/2020 - 16:13

    Disclaimer for those wanting to get a harness to easily DIY, you will need to buy the Kenwood model harness not the JVC model. Also, for Android Auto and Apple carplay, wired connection is required, so just make sure you're happy to plug your phone in each time if that's important to you

  • draf3 on 20/03/2020 - 16:23
