‘Specialist’ lost my reversing feed on Pioneer H/U

[Sylvemm]

Hi looking for advice. I took my 68 vw t6 to an audio specialist for a head unit upgrade. Currently I have the mib2 unit but ut is on the crossover. The specialist fitted the Pioneer Sh160 but I lost my reverse sensor image and phone controls on steering wheel plus the unit dud not sit properly in the facia. The specialist told me I would struggle to get an interface that would work between a head unit and the vw due to the mib2 being on the crossover. I am quite frustrated at this.....surely it can't be that hard. Any advice would hugely appreciated.

Sounds like you got dud info

no reason why you cannot get the radio to fit nicely , regards to the sensor info, the 160 pioneer does not have a port for simple connection to the sensors, but you can get a connects2 infoadapter which plays the info through the reverse cam port, expensive but not impossible and nothing to do with mib thingy

go to a specialist as they do not sound like one

ps does your dash usb socket still work ?

We lost the usb on the dash. The guy is now looking at using an Alpine interface but waiting on it.

You can retain the by using a simple kit, a Alpine interface will not work with a Pioneer
