1point21gigawatts Posted April 14, 2020 Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 Get a line out converter with a remote turn-on circuit for your remote wire and rca wire. “How can we help you?” “And don’t forget to tell them that the customer isn’t always right.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1point21gigawatts Posted April 14, 2020 Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 But I don’t see why you don’t get an aftermarket head unit. You’ve done so much, why half ass it towards the end. It’s just one more piece. I’d recommend getting an aftermarket head unit off of OfferUp or craigslist for like $40 or $50 and spend $30 and get a dash kit and wiring harness and do it the right was. It’s just $50 or $60 more than the line out converter to do it the best way. But if you want to keep your factory head unit, I can understand because some factory head units are bad ass and people don’t wanna replace them. But I would get an aftermarket head unit. That’s what I’m recommending. “How can we help you?” “And don’t forget to tell them that the customer isn’t always right.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonsyph Posted April 14, 2020 Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 Ya I would get a head unit like he said, your gonna have it all taken apart anyways so why not do it all at once. For me apple CarPlay is a must, combined with a nice double din touch screen and its a must for me. Don’t think that 50f cap would do anything except filter out some noise. I would also suggest at least 1 nice agm, biggest you can fit. ♦ Sundown NSV4 18" + Sundown SALT-4 Baby ♦ MechMan Elite 370a + XS3100 - XP3000 ♦ SHCA 1/0 OFC(blue) + SMD Fuse Holders(blue) ♦ Pioneer AVH-2440NEX + SHCA Pro RCA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1point21gigawatts Posted April 14, 2020 Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 Yeah, capacitors don’t really do anything unless you have a whole bank of them or a ultra cap or super cap or whatever. Super banks and ultra caps are like 500 farads and 1000 farads. That’s when capacitors are beneficial. So just get an agm battery. Data safe are good batteries and they last for 10 years if maintained correctly and they are cheap. I use data safe batteries. “How can we help you?” “And don’t forget to tell them that the customer isn’t always right.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
