I'm a C5 X7 2012 owner and I'm trying to find a unit that replaces the original screen if possible. Also weirdly my C5 doesn't have USB sockets that these android units must need for power. He doesn't say which Junsun model this is.
@@comcarclubGood video, could you tell me which Junsun model it is. Thanks. It's weird the CD player plays mp3 data discs and there is no USB socket to do the same, if it had this I could live with the original unit in my C5 X7 2012 even if the sat nav is Jurassic to use it works.
@@nocturnal1970 it's a Junsun v1 pro 2gb 32gb RAM. I'm surprised to hear your 2012 C5 doesn't have USB input. It should have an RT6 which has USB support. In fact, it sounds like the horrible RNEG unit that came with the car and was utter crap
@@comcarclub Yeah, watched a later video of you with 163bhp car review and you say the Junsun was garbage. The problem is you bought a 2GB 4 Core version and it runs Android 12 which really needs 6GB 8 cores so that is the one I might get for about £200. The wireless Android Auto unreliability sounds bad though but I assume your phone is at least Android 11? They shouldn't sell 1GB or 2GB units with Android 12, I seen videos of 8GB versions and they are like lightning. Yeah the car is RNEG, I remember that from updating the firmware. I'll have to wire USB sockets into the fusebox using piggy back connectors but the car doesn't allow much power to stay on after the ignition is switched off, you can't listen to the stereo parked after a few minutes if that. Thanks again and maybe the Junsun units are unreliable, it's difficult to find out long term reliability.
Thanks a lot for the video, it’s been very helpful , i’ve installed the Junsun is a C5 Tourer 2011, just the Canbus setup has been different one for the volume to work. Regards
Thanks a lot for this video; i have the same car and option so it will help a lot. Do you remember the aliexpress listing for this junsun unit ? the one I see have pictured the monochrome lcd. Are they compatible with the plastic trim / lcd holder thing ? Thanks
Hey mate did you tryed at last connect the bipbip sound of sensors parking in ech speakerslike settings factory?? Nice video I got one c5 hdi 2013 year and with similar radio I have to change the wire completly because all are dry and broken connectors, bad quality.
At 6:26 into your video, there's a blue, white and grey connector that went into the old RNEG unit. Do you know or have a diagram on what each of the cables are for? Silly me bought the 3d models for the 2 cup holders that are not the retractable one x) - Oh well. It fitted nicely.

That's because I never got round to installing a camera (I wasn't going to install 360º cameras, I don't think they even exist for my car). I got rid of the Android unit because it was so awful
@@comcarclubI bought 2 versions for 2 cars. This expensive one is terrible and the cheaper one is great. I had a small problem with the ADAS camera. It wouldn't show me the ADAS system, but I already did it and the Chinese still wonder why it doesn't work.
Hi, I got a Sony ax6000 to put into a c52012, but the people who did it did not plug in the computer cables at the back so now I have a permanent check engine light on. I did not see in this video hope you managed to close the computer loop, does that particular unit come with the right slots for the computer plugs? Thank you.
For future users: If seller gives you two frames to install the device (one for device and one behind the fascia (that part with hole for screen, ventilation and knobs)) then this frame is universal. It will perfectly fit the monochrome display version. The part of the frame between LCD and storage will be between the given frames. I just installed a 10" Android multimedia device and it fits perfectly. In future I consider removing center of the metioned frame part, because cooler isn't fully exposed.
If you install this particular unit, you use the car's parking sensors but not the sound from the speakers. As for other head units, it's case by case, as far as I know
I have the same screen installed from two days ago, for android auto did you download the headunit reloaded emulator? Because my screen is not working just plugging the USB into the phone and most of the people solved it using that app
I've recently installed a similar headunit myself and realized that I can't insert the trim piece after the headunit is in the dash. I've seen cars with this headunit and the trim installed so my best guess is that you need to put the trim piece in its place and then put the whole thing in the dash, then gently lift the right hand side of the trim and do the 2 torx screws with a 90 degree angle bit (if possible at all without breaking the trim) and just leave the most left one without a screw. That's my plan but I can't bring myself to to disassemble this again :D. I'll try not to forget to come back and post a comment with how it went once I try it out :)
@@tonistoykov3544 I made a new trim piece of cardboard and felt. As for the hole in the middle of the dashboard where the original radio was, well, maybe in a future video. I'm still testing a solution
@@comcarclub Oh, I didn't realize we are talking about the hole where the original radio sits, there is a tray that goes there in the later original Satnav versions (SMEG) I'm sure a Citroen dealer can source that for you. We'll be waiting for that video if you find a more interesting solution ;)

Aliexpress. The brand is called Junsun. I made a video on the pros and cons: ua-cam.com/video/r8W75b2Dy-w/v-deo.html

Very good video how much cost this
It varies according to spec. I don't remember exactly but I think it was 117€
Do you know that Aliexpress treats your video as an instructional one for all radio models they sell?? 😀
WTF?!!
Thank you so much for your video. What about the hole left by the rneg unit? How do you sort it?
I'm working on it. It's a long process as I have to test and modify the solution
I got the C5 with the little monochrome display. Is it possible to install an android car play there as well?
Yes, but you would have to change the fascia. Some sellers provide that, otherwise, you can look online for a replacement fascia.
For future users: If seller gives you two frames to install the device (one for device and one behind the fascia (that part with hole for screen, ventilation and knobs)) then this frame is universal. It will perfectly fit the monochrome display version. The part of the frame between LCD and storage will be between the given frames.

When you use Android Auto, the limited amount of RAM is not so bad
I have problem with my steeringwheel controls not working can somebody help?
I just have a question about this. If you install this head unit or any other, is it possible to keep the parking sensor?
If you install this particular unit, you use the car's parking sensors but not the sound from the speakers. As for other head units, it's case by case, as far as I know
