I'm one of the many people who recommended KAP industries for your extinguisher mounts when you asked for recommendations. I have them on both the front seats (ie. driver and passenger side). That way, they can be easily accessed from either side. Plus I have a 3rd extinguisher mounted on the rear cargo barrier (to be accessed from the 2nd row seats - just in case), and a fire blanket attached to the end of my fridge/freezer that's mounted at the rear cargo area. This spot also makes it within grabbing distance when cooking on my gas stove. You can never be too careful when dealing with fire. Great work on installing the head unit. I'm loving it. I'll seriously look into it for my 80 Series LC. Thanks for the discount link. 👍
Loving how the Patrol has come together. Really looking forward to seeing it in action on some cool trips.
Those Polaris units are awesome, best thing I've done to the interior of my patrol 👌
It’s your music! Always cool. As in, the music you overlay in your videos. I always enjoy it.
Hi Tyler
Great to see you having a go Mate, long time viewer.
Your giving lots of young Guys & Girls ideas to do up there 4wd’s.
Great to see more People camping fishing & hunting far better parked up then have a few beers around the camp site & fire.
Doing a great job credit to you Tyler
Stay safe Cheers
cheers mate!
For the mic I put mine in the fascia behind those little slots works well people don't complain on calls and keeps it hidden
thanks for the tip mate!
Similar sound system I have in my gu wagon, carplay deck is awesome!!! Now just need twin turbos to go with ya plates 🤣
Good run down Tyler - thanks for that. Look's like i'm about to go shopping!!
Those roof consoles are awesome mate, but just watch ya head when wheeling if your tall you can definitely almost knock your self out on them 😂
will do hah!
Good job.
I found with mine the music sounds better when you have phone plugged in rather than going through Bluetooth
Patrols coming along nicely!! In regards to having the fire extinguisher mounted in the front foot wells. Personally I will never recommend it. Have seen several vehicles that have rolled and the flimsy bit that actually hold the extinguisher comes undone or breaks. Have one vehicle where the extinguisher ended up on the dash in front of the driver and other where it went clean through the windscreen. 3/5 times it came out of the bracket in the accident. Just food for thought.
thanks for the feedback! ill keep that in mind!
Cool video mate. The Patrol is becoming a real rig now. Well done. I like to see you having a go at doing things yourself.
thanks!
Great video! We recently had a new kenwood headunit installed in our May 2020 SR5 to replace the Toyota non-carplay stock garbage. It was a revelation! The only trouble is we might have some parasitic draw (still waiting on Toyota to confirm it is not something else) as we are seeing unexplained voltage drop overnight.
Nice mods. They will make life on the road a lot better.
Those speakers will still be a bit locking for the front mate. Keep your eyes peeled for a set of component speakers for the front. Then find some TI pillar panels with the factory tweeter grills in them to put the tweeters, heaps nice
Hey bloke,your doing great guns on the build,waiting for the next ep.Thanks...
Pretty sure you can get the mount for the player in the console...it gonna give much cleaner look flush with the board..
Keep the vids up mate love the bloopers at the end they’re always good 👍🏾
Great decision swapping those head unit to touch player...lot more convinience..watch videos,use navigation online/download map...excellent mod
yep! we love it
Good early morning quality viewing
Nice going. Love the new gear in your GU. Not sure what UHF you have, but if you decide to get the GME UHF (ie. XRS / TX3 range etc), remember the base unit does not have a facia (and are small), with the mic containing all the buttons and screen etc. Thus not required to have an exposed din setup. All you need is a mic plug.
Thanks for the tips!
geewhizz u really went all out on it !! good stuff ! very interesting
Great to see you having a go... Great work. I like that foating head unit screen 👍. The Patrol is looking awesome.
Been hard at work on my Triton this weekend, starting the rear diff Locker. Looking forward to the next installment...🙂🚙🚙
Thanks 👍
The bull bar looks sick!
cheers!
Great vid Tyler. I installed an in dash Polaris gps head unit once. Worst performing accessory I ever bought. Never again. Just my experience. Hope they have drastically improved their gear since then. 🍺
Sweet mate, can’t beat a good head unit and some nice tunes ... just regarding the earthing of the handbrake wire, that is a legal requirement you have to do so the head unit can’t play videos or movies while the car is in motion ... so you shouldn’t ‘override’ it otherwise if a cop spots videos playing while you’re driving, even if it’s your passenger who is the ‘only one watching’, you’ll cop a fine mate...not worth the headache. All your other functions like apple play, mapping etc should still work, just not the video playing function. Good clip mate, keep up the good work 🇦🇺👍
Sweet hookup with the polaris. Good job mate
Thanks 👍
Should have pre wired the reverse camera anyway. That way you dont have to pull out the head unit again… P.S. your head unit is likely to only output 50w per channel, so the more watts is only necessary if you are wanting to amplify them…
Cool few nice touches there coming along nice mate 🤙🙏🇦🇺
Great effort.. All coming together nicely.... Good work.... 😀
Keen to hear your thoughts on the head unit, I've been toying with buying one for years but could never justify the $$$$
we really like it so far mate!
Love watching this build mate it's real and very interesting keep them coming 👍 🏴
Hey tyler keep up the good work. Your have inspired me to start making vidoes
Go for it!
Nice vid tylz 👌👍 roof consoles are pretty sweet. I scored a gumtree model for $100 which worked out well. Took some creative installing tho 😜 I also have a fire extinguisher in passenger side just like yours, tho I didn't use a bracket but just screwed the bracket that came with the extinguisher straight to the floor piece that runs between the 2 front seat bolts
When you work out how to use the Oziexplorer Hema maps, have a chat to Polaris/Hema and do a video on how to use it properly - struggle constantly.
Other issue I have with Polaris Maxx is roughly every 18mths??, the nav just stops working for no reason. I'm lucky and close to warehouse, so just drive down and they sort it out.
Polaris Maxx don't really have a vid on how to use, or maybe I'm missing something. Gets quiet complicated
I'll definitely get more aquatinted with it and share how I find it in the coming months or so. I think like all things they take a bit of fiddling to get the full hang of!
Another interesting video, just watch your head on rough tracks, I've head butted mine a few times...... lol 😆 🤣
should have gone the kicker 6.5in speakers at autobarn, 100w RMS for $99. Much better sound, i run them in my patrol
Looking good buddy. I've got the same overhead console, I added a few usb and cig sockets to mine. I just need to pull a finger out and fit it.:-)
wow she is looking tuff as mate
Get the second extinguisher mate, I’ve seen a few cars burn to the ground cause one just wasn’t enough. CHEAP insurance.
The speakers would be rated to something like 50w but peak power is 320w probably if you wiring into an external amp, not sure why they advertise it like that though
Loving the build Tyler! The extinguisher you have now is a dry chemical powder which is a good common all rounder but if you’re going to get another I would recommend a CO2 extinguisher (black band). They’re better for electrical fires without making a mess and letting one off into the intake of a diesel vehicle is pretty much the only to stop it if it’s started “running away”. You’ll almost always be with a diesel vehicle and it’s rare but can happen especially with most getting pretty old now
thanks for the tip
Like the new rig mate,👍🏻
That head unit sounds cool, can u add extra maps to it. ?
The head unit is basically an Android tablet, and should be able to install any mapping apps available on the Google Play Store, plus whatever maps you have on your iPhone through Apple CarPlay.
Thanks Karl , so maybe an iPad or tablet is the go , gives more options????
I have the exact same unit in my gu there great.
Are you planning to remap the ECU? Nissan tends to run rich on TB48
yeah it's on the list of things to do at some point!
What's the speaker quality like? I've just installed one and the interference is hideous. When I touch the screen the speakers hiss. Where did you attach the earth? I have tried multiple places but doesn't help. I'm running an external amp with RCA leads, the old Pioneer head unit worked great, this new Polaris is about to get smashed with a hammer!
How do you find the universal max? Can you install Netflix on that thing?
cool man - getting there!
The speakers actually work still if you wire them the wrong way around lol
blanking/cover plate Tyler
I wonder if this weirdly facing forward storage compartment is actually usable.
Thanks Tyler helps me out heaps when i do my roof console install,one tip i got was get the magnetic button for the mic not the clip on so you dont have to look up to clip mic piece on you just reach up and let the magnet hold it there. Also do you know if the polaris is Android compatible or just apple?
I think it's both mate
What is that funky theme song?
I love it
Wagon coming along great but just wondering if your new speakers are water proof
Hopefully you never need to find out but could have been good idea.
If he drowns it that deep the speakers will be the least of his problems.
Took my kap bracket off after kids pinched they’re fingers when moving seat forward.
Just screw the bracket that comes with the extinguisher straight to the metal brace that runs between the 2 front seat bolts
hi again, i’ve finally installed the polaris into my TB48, i’m finally used to it and it’s different ways of doing things, but i’m having terrible lag and echo with the hands free phone calls, are you getting that as well?
Hey mate, never used the hands free calls on mine. I pretty much just use it for maps and music and apple car play
Loving watching the build mate. Is it my OCD or is the head unit on a bit of an angle? Looking great otherwise!! Keep it up.
Thanks mate, it can move up and down and side to side!
Good video…
But there’s no way I could’ve fit that without pre-wiring the reverse camera, hands free speaker, and a flush mount finish for the USB chargers..
Do the job properly the first time, it’s much better than putting things off, and never fixing it
Looking good
hi again, i’m waiting for my polaris to come in stock, so after having your head unit, what’s your honest opinion?
Yep been good so far mate!
@@TylerThompson90 anything that bugs you with the unit?
Hey Tyler I think the word you where looking for was prying
Did you put any heatshrink over those speaker connections young fella?? You won't want to get them wet if you haven't.
yes we did :)
hi Tyler, i finally got my polaris, did you have any issues with the buttons not being illuminated on the left side of the screen, mine done illuminate at all
Hey mate, nope mine were all good so not too sure about that 🤔 sorry!
@@TylerThompson90 worked it out, in the settings, thanks for replying
great video on the head unit, did earthing out the white wire take care of the handbrake lockout?
yes it did
Where did you purchase the polaris head unit from.
From their website mate
Hi Tyler whats the code for the discount for head unit?
it'll be applied when purchasing through this link, bit.ly/3GuAyeO
Them speaker are so under power it's not funny. A nice little 250-300w 4 channel amp tuned correctly would make them sound so much better
The Polaris Head Units are terrible haha I got rid of mine as fast as I could and went to Kenwood floating screen
Are these toys being bought from Patreon funds?
Probably at least in part. Why does it matter? How else is he supposed to pay for it when this is his job?
👍👌
👍🏼
Can't believe U paid $66 for that bracket i was looking at them the other day and I think it's way overpriced what's Rong with just throwing it under the seat or in the door pocket. Each to ther own but I don't see paying nearly $70 for a small piece of plate n holes drilled 🙄 stereo mint tho
If your involved in a rollover, $66 is cheap.
When you need to use it it's good to know exactly where it is. Do you wanna be searching in your car for the extinguisher when the car is on fire?
Loose items can kill in an accident . Keep everything neat ,tidy and secured
Needs to be fixed for sure - I just used the bracket that comes with the extinguisher and Tek screwed that to the front piece of metal that runs between the 2 front seat bolts. Just lift the carpet back first and make sure there's no wires running behind it that you can damage
Lucky it’s not your car then
