This is a good quality sat nav unit - I only removed it as a I decided to go with an Absolut5 set up with a Kenwood headunit.

Collection from GL51 preferred.
OK so the head unit in my T6 was US when i got it so out it went and a JVC KM-M960BW was fitted. all works fine, has android auto etc.

I thought I would do a little post about fitting my new head unit, replacing a broken discover media system.
It's fairly new to the market and not seen one in a T6 yet, so thought people may be interested.
All of the bits were supplied by the fantastic guys at @Absolut5 and I fitted it myself...
I have read with interest the diversity of problems in the threads. Before the conversion of my T6 the company doing the conversion took it to VW for the Kenwood upgrade. I have now taken delivery (14 weeks and delighted) All seems to be but while I can hear callers they cannot hear me. VW of...
Hi Guys,
I'm hoping someone maybe able to assist me. We purchased a 2016 Startline T6 in January, ready for a camper conversion in May - due to Covid, it was completed last week! We are absolutely delighted with the conversion.
I have bought a Sony XAV-AX3005DB Apple CarPlay stereo, and need...
Hi,
I have a shiny new Alpine ILX-F903 waiting to be fitted. I have the fascia adapter and USB retention sorted. However, I am a bit lost as to what interface/adapters I need to order.
I have a Startline so no MFSW but its does have MFD-Plus so I would like to retain the audio info coming up...
Having fitted my Alpine X802D-U HU after it coming back from Alpine I now have this small issue.
The Image below only shows when I am listening to Apple CarPlay, everything else such as Radio stations show correctly on the MFD.
Anyone shed any light?
So I've just attempted to update my Kenwood DNX9190 firmware. I have done this successfully previously when I first installed the unit.
This time the update starts as expected but then tells me the USB connection has been lost and to re-insert the USB.
I pull the USB out and re-insert.
Now...
Just replaced my Kenwood DNX516DABS in my van, so it's for sale. Comes with SatNav aerial and cable to connect 2 USB's but no other leads as I reused them.
Couple of scratches on the screen - £50 - collection from Derby
Cheers!
So....I have the Alpine and have purchased a camera. The camera has the yellow plug and relevant power and earth pigtails.
Question - do I need to run a wire from the Alpine to the reverse light live as well or does the power to the camera signal to the stereo it needs to switch the view?
Any...
Just plugged my phone into the dash usb socket to charge it and it’s not working. The van has a Kenwood DNX516 stereo with 2 USB leads in the glovebox, so I assume that the dash usb doesn’t work due to the aftermarket unit?
Will something like this reinstate it?
Thanks
Hello,
Help please.
My van came with the aftermarket head unit in the photo, as well as an updated VW steering wheel. Also shown. All the buttons on the steering wheel work apart from the volume up/down and the station/track fwd/back. The paddles linked to the DSG work fine. Before I start...
Just listed a Kenwood DNX518VDABS head unit: http://ebay.us/2FqWyz?cmpnId=5338273189
Would rather sell directly to a T6 Forum member, so I'm happy to cover the shipping cost for this item. Will be sent insured of course.

Hi,
looking for advice on head unit upgrades.. what’s the best head unit upgrade for the T6? I’ve already got the DAB one with the 4 buttons each side. I don’t have satnav. I just want a straight swap.
I need something with a decent interface, apple car play wireless and DAB. What other...
First timer so go easy
Wanting to fit a reversing camera to a t6 tailgate while being converted then change the head unit at a later date, thinking of a Kenwood or Pioneer head unit so would any make of camera be suitable, any brand to stay clear from. Any help appreciated
Thanks
I'm looking at head units. I want Carplay, but can't really justify spending £500+ on the head unit, so I'm looking at cheaper alternatives to the Kenwood 8019 that every-man-and-his-dog on this forum seems to have!
I'd been considering the Pioneer sph da130dab, but went to Halfords the other...
Just installed a alpine roof dvd, but having a issue when the van is running I get loads of horizontal lines going across the screen, but when the van isn't running all is good and crystal clear.
