Hey @GaryWold I'm not an expert, so this isn't professional advice, but your car sounds exactly like mine....Limited Highlander w/JBL Audio and Navigation, and it worked for me. What year is yours? I'm guessing you'll need the resistor for your navigation system, but it should work.

@@ryanwalker6579 thanks, mine is a 2010. I’m told I’ll miss the hybrid system display. It’s Not that its very useful though.

@@GaryWold I don't know what the 2010 looks like, but if you watch the video, I only removed the stock stereo and replaced it with the double-din stereo. The hybrid system / navigation system display is still in the car.

I'm sorry, but I don't understand your question. You can still install the stereo without a subwoofer or a backup camera.

I see what you are saying. You are right. But I did use the 70-8116 and it worked. It was so long ago, I don't remember why I got that one, but like I said, it worked. I would recommend getting both and returning the one that doesn't work. :)

That is a valid point. I'm not sure why I didn't record me playing music through the stereo. You can hear the beeping of the volume controls starting at 8:20.

Hi. I didn't have DSP in my car, but I did some quick research and it sounds like you need to make sure the remote wire (blue) from the head unit is connected to the blue wire on your harness. This remote wire will send power to the DSP amp unit. Without power, the amp won't turn on and you won't hear any sound. Hope that helps!

Sorry I took so long to respond. It's a little more complicated than just plug and play, but if you want the entire video it should lay out everything you need to do. Even easier if you don't care about the volume controls on the steering wheel.

I discuss the sub a bit when I'm connecting the harness and such to the back of the head unit. You need to run the RCA cables and blue remote wire from the head unit to the sub amplifier, and then run a wire from the positive post on the battery to the amp, and a ground wire from the frame or negative terminal from the battery to the amp. Then run your speaker wire from the amp to the subwoofer.

Thanks! I honestly don't remember if I disconnected the battery or not, but it's always a good idea when working on anything electrical in the vehicle.

I connected eveything. Screens turns on. Phone connects to Bluetooth. Radio shows up. No sound. Anywhere. I double checked my wired and changed and interchanged them no luck I’m really stuck. And frustrated. There was lots of extra wires in the boss kit I got same as you listed but when you went off screen to wire to wire I lost it. I can’t follow what color went where

@@ason9741 I don't check my messages very often, sorry. Were you able to get your sound working?

I don't know how to help without more information. Are you saying that you don't have any sound with the stock stereo?

No, I don't think so.

95% done with mine I'm in Melbourne too. It's pain to do.. I have same facia plate from Aerpro it doesn't lock the head unit in place 😡

I was quoted $1k just to install a head unit 😂. Unbelievable price

@@surjkooner I have a question what would be the reason if I have an aftermarket radio the same cord and everything is connected no sound. what would be the reason.. I have dsp .. nav screen same as above..

I just does did some quick research on your issue, and it sounds like you may have blown a fuse or relay. Start with the AC fuse in the fuse box. Good luck!

Hi Wood. I'm not sure about your first question. I think what you're asking, is if your X5 comes with a factor sub and amp, can you connect it the new aftermarket head unit. My guess would be no, but I don't know for sure. Same with wiring the blue wire signal. If you're wanting to re-use the factory amp and factory sub, I'm not sure where you would connect the blue wire. Sorry! I didn't record the installation for the rear camera because there seemed to be plenty of videos out there on how to do that, but I did record removing the plastic panel on the tailgate to make the installation easier. Here's a link to that video: ua-cam.com/video/W-AHux8mgbM/v-deo.html. Lastly, I don't think you can use the factory mic using the process in my video, but there might be some way to connect it to the head unit that I don't know about. Sorry I wasn't much help.

That’s correct. Once you replace the factory stereo with a new head unit, your balance controls will be done on the new head unit. Watch minute 18:00 to the end of the video. You can use the factory amp, but you’ll need the long harness that runs from the head unit back to the factory amp. I ran it from the after market amp instead and bypassed the factory amp, but you don’t need to do that. There are 8 wires on the harness, 2 for each speaker. So the factory amp actually is a 4-channel amp. Hope that helps!

Sorry, I didn't see your question. My daughter still has this stereo in her Highlander and it has held up just fine.

If there was a short in the speaker wire, it would typically just impact one speaker and not all of them. Is your head unit muted? When you press the volume button up and down, does it show the volume changing on the display? Do you have the Axxess steering wheel control interface installed? Sometimes this can cause an issue with the sound.

@@ryanwalker6579 hi I have played with the mute button and control knob but no luck...I've tested the headunit and the headunit is sending power thru speaker wires when the radio is supposed to be play but there is no sound at all....I was wondering...there is a canbus box that comes with the unit but even that is working fine and interacting with the car...

Hi Malc. I'm not sure. There seem to be plenty of other videos for installs with DSP. I made this video because I couldn't find one with no DSP. Let me know if you need help finding one.

Thanks! I think it's normal depth. It says the depth of the head unit is 5 5/8" (144mm), which seems normal. I feel like there was plenty of room in the X5 once I pulled out the factory unit.

Thanks! I think it depends on if you have the navigation system or not. My recommendation would be to go to crutchfield.com and use their website to determine if that stereo will work in your car, and what adapters you might need. Good luck!

❤hi bro my X5 everything was removed so I need to now where to get my connection at the back because I would like to install a amplifier

Thanks! I'm glad my video helped! I see now that you used the 82 ohm resistor. I think that will work just fine.

@@ryanwalker6579 yeah 82 ohms works perfectly on my 2006 Highlander Hybrid. I imagine between 70 and 100 is what the information monitor looks for. I think more resistance may give you problems if you're 12 volt system is low on power like if you are listening to the radio with the engine off battery gets low, the GPS might start blinking on and off or something. I haven't had any issues thus far, mine is a hybrid Highlander I don't listen to the radio with my car off very often, and the accessory battery doesn't need too much capacity in a hybrid vehicle. I've seen hybrid vehicles with a 12 volt accessory battery as low as 400 cold cranking amps. I actually upgraded mine to 700 cca, a bigger accessory battery can't hurt as long as it fits.

I think anything from 70 to 100 ohms will work, but I would use the one closest to 70. So if you have a 75 ohm resistor, I would use that!

Yes! Go to Settings -> General -> System Tone (turn it off). Hope that helps!

🤣😂

So JBL is making modules for heated seats now? It says "LEATHER SEAT" because this amp was made for the Highlander Limited, which has leather seats. If you watch my other video, I unplug the harness from this amp and plug it into a harness that comes from an aftermarket amplifier, which powers the speakers. If you are right, then the speakers are powered by and receive their signal from the heated seats module.

I have 2006 toyota RAV4 limited, n the radio comes on ,but no sound comes out

Good question. I think you'll still need to bypass the factory JBL amp because the stereo harness (Metra 70-8113) is only used to power the new stereo and no longer sends the signal/music/sound to the factory amp, so the music/sound will no longer get sent out to the speakers. You'll need to connect factory amp bypass harness (Metra 70-8116) to the speaker wires in the back of the new stereo, and then run it all the way back to the connector that you unplug from the factory JBL amp. In other words, the factory amp bypass harness connects the speaker wires on the new stereo to the speakers in the car. The speakers will be powered by the new stereo instead of the factory JBL amp. Hope that makes sense.

The red wire on the Metra 70-8114 connects to the red (accessories) wire on the stereo harness, and the black wire connects to the black (ground) wire on the stereo harness. Hope that helps.

@@ryanwalker6579 thanks man i figured it out , i had to manually set it up to my steering wheel

I came across the need to use the 70ohm resistor on a forum about this installation. I didn't actually test it without the resistor, so I don't know for sure if it's needed, but I assumed it was.

Hi Max. This is a pretty big job and I wouldn’t recommend doing it yourself unless you have some experience with stereo installations and/or have a good idea what your doing. It does take a while and is a lot of work. But if you want to save some money and want a project and a good challenge, go for it.

@@ryanwalker6579 thank you so much

The face plate is Metra 99-8260B. I found it on eBay.

@@ryanwalker6579 Thank you so much for reply. It is very helpful.
