- This is an unboxing and install of the GROM VLINE2 interface with CarPlay, wireless CarPlay and Android Auto into my 2009 Infiniti FX50S. This interface allows full usage of the OEM buttons and functions while modernizing the OEM nav unit and radio.
This is the unit I purchased: gromaudio.com/...
Model: NIS8VL2

This was great!!! Seems a bit complex… I might just suck it up and wait for when I need a new car and make sure it has all the bells and whistles 😅
Nah, finding a place to put the unit was more of a pain (other than connection wires).
Keep doing what you're doing Jhae!!!!
Mountable USB should give what you are looking for.
This specific model and year did not come with an OEM USB interface, it did not even come with bluetooth audio. That was not available until 2010 for the FX.
Nice video, do you know if this the original idea behind the Nifty City ? If so any insight on how it compares?
Sorry just seeing this. I’m not sure but I do know GROM has been around for a long time.
My man Jhae. Heading to pick up my 2011 FX-50 tomorrow. Came across your video. How do you like this vline unit? I haven’t driven the vehicle yet. Have you had any issues with yours so far? Likes dislikes?
Crap man. Sorry just seeing this. It has its quirks but I never finished setting it up. I only use it for Apple integration (CarPlay, podcasts, etc..). Wireless CarPlay works but even in new cars, it’s buggy. Skip the Bluetooth pairing and stick to wired.
How's is your experience so far with 2011 FX50? And mind sharing mileage and price as well?
@@HardParking Hey Jhae, I went with the Nifty City Unit for my FX37 and it has been Great, I was looking at another for my FX50S, when I remembered your vid. So as an Updated, where do you stand on the VLine Unit?
@@mauricejohnson8921 it’s buggy but acceptable
Hey jhae, perfect video, after 1 year of using it what is your review, i have qx70 limited edition
It suffers from the hardware it’s running through. Our 2009’s monitor ratio is something like 640x480. Other than the CarPlay audio when on a phone call being terrible, overall it’s been fine.
@@HardParking these problems with wireless or wired? And there is and difference regarding quality?
You said the FX50 needed a couple grand worth of work. What repairs did it need?? I'm interested in purchasing one.
Yeah, the power steering pressure hose decided to burst on me. It lasted my long road trip home but not much longer. The FX used the same fluid for power steering and transmission. And it’s mfg discontinued. So I had to pay for that to get shipped off and repaired, as well as a few other monitor maintenance things. But it’s been rock solid since.
@@HardParking Thanks so much bro. I'm really interested in purchasing a FX50 but most have High Mileage.
@@kingofuseddurablecars.ls6040 yeah and those that don’t are kind of expensive when comparing features to other available sport SUVs in the same class and pricing
Great Video thank you
You used your cup holder as an amplifier 😅?? Had to do what you had to do.
Yep lol
Hey man, did you have two connector at the back of your screen,
Don’t remember tbh.
Whats up jhae this Is Anthony bro. I been looking for the same solution for my 2011 maxima. I seen a similar unit from place called nifty city audio..it's 699. How much is that one.
Mybad I just clicked the link 659..a little cheaper cool
Jhae you still talk to Joe and scott?
Will it work in a 2008 FX35? Thanks!
Not this specific model. Check out GROMs website for first Gen specific kits.
will this work on fx50 with 360 cam?
Yep.
Hey Jhae, great video👍helped me a lot with installation. Got same NIS8 kit for my 09Fx50s (mine's got dvd box in armrest console) all neatly installed, but Vline interface wouldn't display, I press (disc-aux) in circles, system doesn't initiate nor detect vline.. Did this happen to you? How did you solve it? Thx
Damn no answer :o/ I hate UA-camrs who don't answer even if they don't know the answer. Never Subscribe to them.
I have the same problem. Did you have a solution for it?
А как работает климат-контроль? А/С ?
Doesn’t impact the climate control at all.
Hi I have my 09 Fx 35 please how can I get this
Check the GROM site, they probably have it
Hey they work for FX35 09
Check the GROM site, they should have the specific application
