This thing rocks for the price! I think filming on my phone really slowed down the CarPlay segment. It's a solid option for the price. Check out the links below if you are interested in one and ask questions, I'll answer them!

PLEASE READ THIS FOR MORE INFO & TROUBLESHOOTING

I ordered the 2nd model! C1 Model! I wouldn’t hesitate to purchase the 4g or higher versions either. Do NOT purchase the cheapest, you will not get CarPlay! Scroll down on the Alibaba listing to find all the models. 

NEW MODELS! If you are reading this, you likely do NOT have to do the canbus update or splice for the reverse camera!

Is it not turning on? PLUG IN THE SMALL BLACK CANBUS BOX THEY INCLUDE! This black box isn't labeled Ram, but it is required! PLUG IT IN.

If you cannot get the firmware update to go through, make sure you have selected the Canbus Type (the part where I click 2003.dajielong) BEFORE updating. Update it once, and even if it doesn’t go, disconnect and reconnect the positive on the battery (or unplug and replug in the headunit). Keep doing this until it goes.

If your audio quality isn’t great, do not touch to low ASP. Leave it at 0, and use the DSP to make adjustments. If you use the ASP for lows, it will sound like garbage!

If your camera is in the rearview and you want to mirror it on the headunit, you will need to splice into Pin 8 & 9 on the harness found on the passenger side. Pop off the trim panel piece to the right of the A/C unit (not on the door!). The harness is found in the middle. Pin 8 is positive, pin 9 is negative.

I pulled the plug and bought this through Aliexpress, 1st thing is you cannot beat the price, even the guy I paid to install it was impressed at how well it worked FOR THE PRICE! I can vouch for the speed but at times it is LAGGY in connecting to Android auto. I've only had it a couple of weeks so if it takes a crap or or anything like that I will Def update my comment. Other than that THANK YOU for posting this vid, it worked out pretty awesome!

I did things in reverse and ordered it first and then watched your video 😂 hopefully I’ll like it. Thank you for uploading a video on it.

I was able to update the firmware after 20 or so attempts powering off and on with the head units power cable. My final attempt where I saw success was after driving around my block for a few minutes then parking and trying again without powering off. I’m unsure if that’s the trick but it started working and then I followed the remaining steps provided in the video.

Also, the rear view camera works perfectly for my truck which used the same pin out mentioned.

Just ordered the C1 and so far it works great. I have a 2013 RAM 1500 ST. My truck didn’t come with a reverse camera so I am trying to add that.

Dude...I was digging and digging for something like this, tried a couple of 'portable' units that were total trash. I ended up returning both and just bit the bullet and gave the Amazon version of this unit a shot. It does not disappoint! I was able to install it over lunch even with the lack of instructions in the instruction manual! I still have to hack into the wiring harness on the side of the dash to get my backup cam out of the mirror and into this display, but it automatically recognizes when I'm in reverse and switches to the rear cam input and also the supplied canbus adapter manages to keep the Park Sense beeps, though not the same sounds as factory I did not have to order extra harnesses from Crutchfield. At this point I'd give it a 4.5 out of 5 simply due to the meh plastic quality of the bezel....DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE SCREWS.

I just want to mention to everyone that mine just arrived today. I bought it two weeks ago and it was scheduled to arrive 10 days later than now. I live in the east coast so if this is your situation, don’t be surprised if it arrive early.

Thanks for the video and info! I’ve been looking to replace the stock unit in my 2015 Ram 1500 and have not been able to find any decent plug-n-play options. Just ordered this one 🤙🏼

I ordered the same exact one.. now they have the Video out already pinned into the harness to those brown wires... you also has a Video input wire going to the head unit with 2 blue non stripped wires sticking out.... thats where you can now plug in the rear camera without splicing, the 2 blue wires is the antennas for the wifi... so now the C1 is totally plug & play... I just hate the picture quality but it works for hooking up my camper

Leeocar brand is pretty good. Ans its an 8 core. Its pretty much plug and play. I have a 2018 ram1500 tradesman with just basic radio and rear view back up cam. If you wanna use existing camera the wires are in the side of dash remove the panel passenger side. Green wire orange stipe is negative and geeen brown wire is positive the inner wire in rca cable. I like the included micro usb hook up all my usb are working.

I’m requesting that you make a quick video covering the wiring on your head unit. Pretty sure I wired everything correct, getting a total black screen. Would clear up a lot of confusion for a lot of people based off the comments. Thanks

The newer model you do not have to do anything for the backup to work, it comes with a av cable that connects to the av cable for cam direct from the wire harness

The genius thing about these is they come with everything you need in the kit. The price makes it seem too good to be true

So no shit, 3 weeks of attempting the canbox upgrade 5-10 times a day and it finally took. I’m mind blown

Ordered the radio two weeks ago. Got it Friday. Installed it this morning. All Plug and play. I'm assuming they added the a software u[upgrade since this video was posted. All works fine. You will need to tweak the setting a bit. Didn't have to splice the wires for the back up camera. All Works so far. AM radio a bit week. But seems fine. Ill update in month or so

Update: All is well. I installed the steering wheel voluminous buttons. wasn't hard. Worked correctly and I didn't need to edit in the radio at all. Thanks again @socalexpeditions
