- How to install a Tesla sized screen on a 2018 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2.
If you are not afraid of wiring, you'll do fine with this install. It took about an hour and a half
Nicely done... Anyone following your directions should be able to get it done. And your advice about taking your time and doing it right was the best advice for anyone
Thanks dude👍
Installed this a few months ago, and this video was super helpful. Thanks for putting it together!
Any thoughts on it ? Was it worth it???
Thank you so much. Really appreciate the video
Just ordered one for my Infiniti. This looks SICK in your truck! 🔥
Looks slick, good job!
Thanks dude!!! I have a follow-up video coming out soon
Push in, pull out. Got it 👍!
Was skeptical on this mod but now I want it
I'm going to have another review on it coming out soon
@@readyrig4x4 excellent hoping to see more vids of it 👍
That is awesome thanks for the vid!!
Thanks
Great video, awesome system! My wife would kill me if I spent ~$1k and there is no way to hide it so I'm SOL!
Thanks for the video
A butterknife is now in my toolbox! It worked great!
Hahaha 🤷♂️ if it works.. it works. Thanks for watching 👍
Looks awesome. One question I have is all of the 'add-ons' at time of checkout such as backup camera, bluetooth, etc. etc. If these were all stock on my GMC Canyon to begin with, do I need to purchase the add-ons to retain the factory settings?
You might want to ask those questions to the company that sells them. But I only purchased the unit and all of my add-ons for my truck work
@@readyrig4x4 appreciate it; I saw you were doing a follow-up video with it soon. You still happy with it all these months later?
Hi, great video. Did your Rear View Camera automatically come on when you put the truck in reverse? Is there a camera cable for that?
Yup. It was all plug and play
So many plugging in things. And pulling things..the things that i see on UA-cam makes me want to do more things in life🤣🤣🤣
LOL!! 🤣😂🤣
that looks exactly my GMC Canyon Infotainment system. question please: 1/ that tablet screen light is dimmable (too bright)? 2/GPS comes with the kit? how long did it take u to installed that? thanks
1. Yes
2. Yes
~3. 2 hours
Does this void manufacturer warranty? It's like 3 steps and is plug and play. But I've got 26 miles on my current Colorado and I don't wanna mess anything up with the manufacturer.
Most States have Traffic Laws that cover Drivers watching Movies, Music Videos, etc... while moving. Is there a Warning Document with this equipment that covers Distracted Driving? Does this work with OnStar and Navigation from the factory? I am curious about these subjects, before purchasing one of these. Thank you.
this is sick. what did you have to call the company about. this is on my list for my ZR 2 for sure. man i didn't even know this was a thing.
Some things aren't working properly. Like downloading apps and the multi-window icon
Ryan Rupcich did you get it downloading apps now?
How's the resolution compared to stock?
How smooth/fast is it compared to stock?
Thinking of buying one for my GMC canyon 2016.
Did you end up installing one on your Canyon. I also have a 16' Canyon and was wondering how u liked it? And does the backup camera still work with it?
Where did you get it from? Wonder if the car dealer will install it for you lol
Do you still have your old info. system? If so I should could use it.
Could anyone send me a link to this it looks very cool!
Would I need to order the extras like the android carplay and the reverse camera wires or can I use the stock wires for all that?
I believe it retains all of the stock features
Very impressive unit and relatively simple install (Love the use of Improvised tools). How well does the tablet show up during bright daylight. More importantly is there a night mode?
The brightness is actually great during the day. Yes there is a night mode. and you can, very easily, preset the brightness for day mode and night mode.
Thanks for watching
Can you use your your phone as a hotspot and get that tablet to use the internet from the phone?
@@jonh0130 That's exactly what I do. It all works really well
I have a 2019 Chevy colorado zr2 my Question is the internet hotspot subscription will work with the new system ?
Yup. It should
a question I installed a stereo equal to that of the video to a chevrolet colorado it works all only that the aud of youtube you do not hear anything that could be
Plug in a jack to your stock aux port
Does the gauge cluster show what song you're listening to still
Yup👍
I have a 2020 GMC Canyon Diesel Denali do you know if GM uses a SIM card for the AT&T 8"infotainment system? Or do you just use your hotspot data from your phone?
No clue
Ryan, it's heen about a year now. What are your thoughts, how's it holding up, everything still working?
The truck is still running great! I hit a trail every weekend or so. It's about to hit 60,000 miles and still strong. I'm in the process of building armor for underneath right now along with a dual swing out bumper that I can hopefully remake and sell for any Chevy Colorado. Check out my Instagram @readyrig4x4
OH! I just saw that you commented on the infotainment video. Sorry.. the company has just contacted me to send it back! Finally! The sent a confirmation that I will be receiving a new one!! Just waiting for it in the mail now. I'll definitely have to do a follow up video on it👍
@@readyrig4x4 cool, yeah definitely interested in how the new one works out.
How does it work with the iPhone?
Good~~~~^^
Can you do a software vid? I just installed mine today.
Dope dude!! Ya, I'll probably film one this week. How do you like it?
@@readyrig4x4 truck is still in the body shop so I didn't really mess with it alot. Just went and installed it while they were working on other stuff. Left my GPS inside the unit at the top. Didn't install my microphone or the yellow plugs for other cameras.
@@hewavith how hard was the install? I know Ryan made it look super easy.
Thinking of buying one for my GMC canyon 2019. Would this fit my 2019 GMC Canyon??
No clue dude. You should look up the company that makes it and ask them
Do the factory usbs still work ?
been thinking about getting one of these
They do!
@@readyrig4x4 cool, that answers my question. Do the steering wheel controls still work also? Have they given you an update for the shift in the screen?
Did the backup camera still work?
Please reply to the questions on here. I am interested in replacing the ent system in my colorado but i have the base model.
Just Google the title of this video
Hey Ryan, my screen is enroute from China. How do you like the unit? Is it worth it? Can't wait to get mine.
There are a few things I really like in a few things that I don't.
What are the things that you don't like?
@@stfuz some functions don't work, like my backup camera. And other functions just stopped working like my multi-window. If definitely buggy and slow at times but everything else pretty much makes up for it
Update video soon?
Hey man, do you still like this upgrade? I'm looking at doing this on my 2017 GMC Canyon Duramax 4x4.
I still like it. I have since returned it to the company to either get fixed or have them send me a brand new one out. I'm just waiting for it to come back
@@readyrig4x4 Why did you have to send it back? And do you have to buy the GPS receiver separately or does it come with the original unit.
@@sean-rady I sent it back because a couple things weren't working on it properly. Like the multi-window tab in the top right corner. It came with its own GPS setup
@@readyrig4x4 Thanks man. The unit I'm looking at (that's compatible) is the Px6 Six- Core. 12.1 inch. Is that the one you have? Is the 6 core now considered "outdated"?
I own the 2020 Chevy Colorado ZR2. I'm having trouble finding a receiver like this one to fit my vehicle. Do you know if this would fit the 2020?
I don't know. Give that company a call
Nice screen size, but not a fan of Pheonix's UX
Will i lose Apple CarPlay if I installed this android tablet? The OEM has all the features i wanted, but it lack of power and sound quality. I’m a audio enthusiast and love to upgrade my sound system. Will this tablet equip with sound adjustments like a crossover sq, rca for subwoofer output and etcs
in a lot of modern cars you might find it hard to upgrade to top of the line audio quality, Unless the aftermarket guys like Alpine can also give control of all the vehicle systems.
Is there a link for the product?
What would we do without our butter knives! lol That is nice!
I can find the headunit where can I buy
Could you tell me what is the protocol that gm it use.
Not sure what you're asking
Dose the XM radio work with this new setup?
Would like to know if XM works as well.
What do you call the company about? how to change the startup pic? cuz that's what I wanna know
Hey Ryan, are you still liking the unit ?
I love it. There are still issue with it that I don't like. The company has newer units now that are probably better.
Thank you 👍
@@readyrig4x4 what issues dont you like about it i was thinking of purchasing this unit for my truck.
@@Olivemont its a lit slow. And some features like the multi view have since stop working. It's a little frustrating
Where you bought
Do you get more and better volume sound out of android deck
no, my Bose system sounds the same
So I know I’m late lol but I have a iPhone does it have apple car play and will I be able to connect everything to since I don’t have an android
Yes
what did u end up doing with the old screen and control panel?
I have it sitting in a box in my closet 🤷♂️
Ryan Rupcich does it have like the gps recover since u had s to run a new one and stuf? Or is it just the screen
@@nathandasilva5368 not quite sure what you're asking, but no the unit I took out does not have GPS
Ryan Rupcich ok that’s what I wanted to know just didn’t know how to word it. Would u sell the stock screen?
@@nathandasilva5368 possibly
Cual Android es? De cuantas pulgadas ea el la pantaya del Android?
Were I can get one of those for my canyon 2019? Thanks
You're gonna have to Google it Bud. Not sure if they make them anymore
Seth Rollins not just a wrestler
nice work how much u pay for
Where can I find one of these? Does it fit into a GMC Canyon? Does it ship to Guam USA?
There is a link in the description just for you 👍
@@readyrig4x4 I cannot seem to find the link
Sorry about that. Here ya go

@@readyrig4x4 thank you 👍
how do i buy that radio
Were you able to hook up your back up camera
Yup. Plus there is an option for using more cameras
I have the Z72 and I can’t seem to get mine to work . Did you have to connect a RCA cable ?
@@gloverkrisean 🤷♂️ yeah, I'm not sure bud. All I did was plug in everything into the proper ports. Maybe call their customer support 😬
Thank you
Do you still have the factory stereo? Would you sell it?
I do, and no. Ha sorry
Looking for a 2019-2021 Silverado model
A year later still not available .
Does this void warrant?
I don't see how but I do know for sure. I guess you could call your dealership and ask.
Where can we find that stereo for my Colorado
Google the title of this video
Would this fit a 2021 chevy ZR2??
Not sure. You'd have to ask the company that makes them
Are you happy with the head unit still
no, not really
Can you share whether you ever got it to fully work? From above comments you had to troubleshoot, send the unit back, and reinstall after backup camera and multi-screen functions stopped working?
Can this be done to Colorado 2018?
Yup, mine is a 2018
How do I get UA-cam or Netflix sound to work through the app?
Plug an AUX cord into the regular AUX port. Nothing needs to be plugged into the other end. It just tricks the system to play sound as if it was auxiliary.
Hey men I have the same truck how i can find that tablet for my truck???
Google the title of this video
how much does this usually cost of installing/tom
No idea. I don't run a radio install shop. You might want to just call around and find out for yourself. Or possibly just do a Google search. Might take 5 minutes of your time... but the answer is out there. I know you can do it. Good luck👍
Could anyone send me a link to this it looks very cool
Just Google the title of this video
Send the link for the stereo plizzzzz
Do you lose any features with this?
Nope!
Can you customize the truck to an image of your exact truck?
YES! I set mine up to do exactly that. Coming up on the next video!👌
@@readyrig4x4 would love to see a follow-up video review - what you like and don't like
Where did you get this and how much please TIA!!
Check out the link in the description
Ryan Rupcich sorry but I don’t see one

luking like seth rollin.....😁🤔😆😂......
Surendra Chhetri sounds like him a little too lol
Where do you find this radio at?
Google Phoenix Android for a colorado
Could you show the tablet's model # please?
Dang. I don't have that
Do you need a android for this?
No
How are you liking the upgrade? Is it worth it ?
I'm still on the fence on if it's worth what you pay for.. when people jump in the truck for the first time there is a definite wow factor.. but the performance of the computer is slow. And I still haven't gotten any word from the company on fixing the shifted screen. So, I like it (kinda). Is it worth it? Probably not.
Mine didn’t have factory nav so I bought the plug n play unit from infotainment.com and I like it. Thanks for your honest response 👍👍
@@georges4562 neither did mine.. that definitely is a plus
So lots more time has past, any new opinions on the new unit ?
Do you want to sell your old intam. center?
Mmmmmmabey
@@readyrig4x4 How much to ship to Texas?
Is that Seth Rollins?
Oh , if you want to sell let me know...
want to sell your old screen
Maybe
@@readyrig4x4 how much$
STEP 1: Disconnect Battery
First you need to start with some knowledge of working on a car did not get 10 seconds into this video and I was like wow Rip it off yank it off a retaining thing wow should have watched a UA-cam video on disassembly of what your working
Does NOT look like a Tesla 🤣🤣🤣
No thanks
Shit like this is why trucks cost so much. People always want bigger, better, more. 2025 models will come with escalators that extend down from the tailgate when lowered. The windshield will be the infotainment screen because fuck paying attention to the road. Don't forget push button start or the panty folding, steaming and starching glove box. Smh. Looks nice for status I guess.smh
Can you install this into a 2016 WT edition?
No clue 🤷♂️
