    UPDATE: I'm removing the product link, because I don't feel comfortable supporting this product anymore. I will leave the video up, because it still contains useful info.
    NOTE: You don't need a 5 Watt resistor! I think 1/4 Watt should work. Sorry about that.
    Some things that will help with the install:
    Dual USB Outlet -- amzn.to/3nWAIb4
    Interior Trim Tool Kit -- amzn.to/42yTTa4

    Thanks for the video.
    I am just installing a very similar one. I just forgot the resistor because i have no mounting instructions. I'll fix it tomorow.
    Many options to setup (GPS / Front and rear Cam). Really good stuff at a low price.

      Thanks! Yeah, they need to mention that in the wiring diagram. But a 68 Ohm 1/4 Watt resistor will do the trick.

    Thanks for the Vid. I installed a unit from Aliexpress. Looks exactly the same. Only problem has been the steering wheel controls. There is no Mode button on the stereo. On yours (or anyone else) did the mode work? I was able to get into the factory settings as well with a code I foiund on youtube but still cant get the mode to work. When I program it in to anything else the stereo does weird things with the volume up and down. I can verify you can get almost the same system for about $100 shipped from ali as of now. So far working well. Tip. make sure you get the 68ohm resistor and not a 68k like I did at first.

    Your Prius video is the first video I’ve seen where the touch screen has a total of 4 buttons, two on each side. Mine is also a 2006 Prius but other videos I’ve seen have 3 buttons on one side of the screen instead of 2.

    The two "missing" screws are not missing as they are not necessary. The bottom plastic is secured with the two original metal screws. The unit itself is secured with those yellow clips you transplanted. The two connect plastic pieces are held in place via the 2 plastic 'hinge'; they hold and not for securing.

    Hello and thank you for the presentation. I also installed such a tablet some time ago on my father's Toyota Prius, it looks similar to yours.
    I'm having problems with mine. Sometimes it conflicts with the tablet on top that monitors the hybrid system, and when it does it shows almost nothing, that is, I can no longer see what is happening with the hybrid system or the consumption, and I can no longer use the climate control.
    I mention that there is no signal on the GPS or on the radio. When it's working I can monitor the hybrid system and access the climate control but it still has no GPS signal and no radio. What could go wrong?

    Thank you for making this video! I am looking into replacing my radio in my '07 Prius, and thinking about getting this Seicane radio specifically since it has the option to buy an OBDII link with it. I was wondering if you could do a more in depth review on the radio itself? Showcasing all of its functions like carplay/android auto, customizablity, and how the OBDII works with it? Again, thank you very much for this video!

    there was no resistor in the package with the tablet, so says the former owner. if I buy a separate resistor and install it, all the other functions should work, not just the climate, right? I mean to see how the battery is charged, to see the fuel consumption, etc. is it true did I understand correctly?

    Hello, nice video. I bought android for my gen 2, 2005 year. but i bought the one that removes navigation screen. And i cant get my CAN to work. I did put resistor on those two wires but didnt help get CAN to work. But i found somewhere on the internet that on that upper navigation screen there are also 2 CAN wires. Is it possible that puting resistor on tham can solve my problem?
    Cuz i now domt have AC system except that what is on the steering wheel. 😢

    I just finished installing this right now. Took me 2.5 hours. I kept the cars factory camera which shows on the upper screen. I also had the issue with the top of the bezel sticking out. Were you able to figure something out to have it sit flush? I had trouble programming the MAP, INFO and MIC buttons (top right of steering wheel). Did you have issues with these?

    • @michaelblacktree
      @michaelblacktree  10 місяців тому

      My car doesn't have navigation, so it doesn't have those buttons. As for the bezel, I don't know of an easy fix. If it bolted to the side brackets like the stock radio, you could adjust it. But it snaps into the dash, using the tabs for the bezel trim. So there's no adjustment. IMO it's a bad design.

    • @michaelblacktree
      @michaelblacktree  5 місяців тому

      I had something similar happen. I had to do a factory reset (long story), and during the restart it went black and stopped responding. To get it working again, I had to pull the radio fuse (in the engine bay) and reinsert it. Apparently, the only way to completely power off the radio is to pull the fuse. There's no power button on the unit.
