Upgrading my 2019 Base… Any suggestions?

It looks good. Nice upgrade.

Can I message you or ask for a tutorial? I also have a 2019 manual. When I search, I find many links to the kiasoul forums, but most posts say to use the search because it’s already been asked. I can’t find any help.

Yes. It was probably the easiest installation I’ve done. It’s mostly plug and play.

Do you have any problems with the backup camera and steering wheel controls? If it’s plug and play, does that mean everything is covered in the manual?

@Jony
The steering wheel buttons work well. The original backup camera isn’t working. I’m still trying to fix it.

That’s great! This is awesome. I might give my 2015 model a Christmas gift.

I just installed one too. Now I can use Android Auto easily and affordably (it cost €130 for a 4/64 version). Note that the sound quality is much worse than the original unit. Luckily, there’s a cheap amplifier (€25) on Aliexpress that improves the sound. If you have an original rear camera, there are compatible harnesses on Aliexpress for a clean installation.

@vincent
Thanks for the advice! I do hear a difference in the sound. I thought it might be the EQ settings I’m adjusting, but it’s still not perfect. The original camera is also a problem.

Are you selling the original screen or keeping it for backup?

I’m keeping it for now, but I’ll inform you if I choose to sell it.

Even your camera looks much better.

Yes, it’s the same camera, believe it or not. I think I just took a better photo.

Yes, of course. It’s like I have an exciting new addition to my car.

I did something similar. But I forgot to buy one with knobs.
