USB retrofit

thisisMikeNa · 01-16-2021, 01:10 AM

Anyone know if I need to wire the module in the trunk or I can just wire usb directly from head unit? Head unit has bluetooth for phone calls if that helps.

you'll need either replace module in trunk for mulf2high with usb hsd cable
or replace headunit
and add usb hsd cable and usb socket

The above gives you usb , sd card, bluetooth streaming , bluetooth
phone another aux and is relatively cheap.
It has steering wheel controls the interface (controls for switching sources) is not the greatest but the
sound through usb and sd is just as good as the cd using the same
music files.
The only complaint i have is the interface is non intuitive and the operating
instructions are almost non existent.

This is essentially a Denison 500 clone.
You can still use your factory phone setup by switching off the phone option.
Easier than installing a Mulf 2 hi or combox.

Has to be attached to the most bus and the cd option enabled.
