I am considering upgrading my 2013 Prius audio. I believe a great accomplished ish can be acheieved by simply replacing the factory amps with quality aftermarket amps with higher power. Even a multi-channel amps.. I would need to access the outputs fhat hook up to the present outputs (the "preamp" outputs on what be on traditional audio systers and seen on the scematic diagram.
great video about to do this upgrade, did you add an amp? do you recommend one? what speakers are you powering through the jvc? factory etc? thanks again! great vid.
Appreciate you doing the video. I plan on replacing my stock head unit in my 2010 Prius i just purchased. I been looking at other videos and some say i need to get a steering wheel harness?
U will need steering wheel harness if u want to use steering wheel control... i have no need for that since im controlling everything with my phone anyway.
Thanks for making the video. For retaining JBL and steering wheel what extras do I need? Do you know if I have to use different harness for Alpine-iLXW650?
JVC KW-M56BT Imho its betten than those unreliable android ebay/Amazon head unit. This one also has and option for steering wheel control and backup camera... for just a little more.
Disconnect the negative on your battery and wait 5 mins, then reconnect it. The check hybrid error will go away. Battery is in the rear right side of vehicle.
Thanks for the video man! Good step by step, and easy to follow directions.
Would you know if the backup camera would work if I installed it on a 2015 Prius
can you still access the settings screen ?

If u have jbl system in your car then u need special adapter harness to turn on the amp
@@Themechaniclife24 My 2010 Prius has the JBL system. I'll have to get the smart harness anyway because I want to retain the steering wheel controls.
@@wturner777 make a video when you install it plz :)
Nice video! How does it work with the lightning connector to iPhone? or does CarPlay work with bluetooth?
Thanks for the great video! Do you recommend that head unit for that car, or would advise to purchase something different?
There are so many new options now, like Android head units, that might be even better choices
How much does it cost to install this unit approximately for a Prius 2013? What is the labor cost about in the car shop?
1-2hr worth but will be more with rear cam
