Eonon UA12S-plus Carplay / Android stereo upgrade - Boxer camper conversion CC04
Video Overview & Insights
Installing and looking at the eonon UA12S plus CarPlay / android auto stereo system and a back up camera
Watching and rewatching this entire series as inspiration from my Ducato conversion. Thanks for drilling down into so much detail on everything.
Just spotted your fascia mod (screws) that I am blatently going to steal since I've been having no joy with the clips, which just seem to end up firing off inside the dashboard and then take hours to relocate!

Dab aerial on window needs phantom power switched on if no led is lit on aerial may not be getting 5v power from usb hope that helps had one on y pioneer head unit had to turn power on to it for best reception

What canbus type did you select on the radio? Didn't find right one.
My Steering Wheel Controls wont work.

Ho Lee on that install for reversing camera did you need to cut into the rear light reversing wire. Only ask because i have the camera installed but am just using the camera screen it came with , same reversing camera as yours. Hoping i just remove the screen and plug the video feed into the back . How did the dab go in the end buddy ?

Thanks for the video, very useful ahead of me doing the same - do you know the type of Dab/coax adapter you needed to use the original antenna?
Edit - I found out on another video but in case anyone has the same question, itâs a Fakra (male) to SMA adapter that is required to use the existing DAB antenna

More User Perspectives
Does it connect to your mobile hotspot automatically
@sonnyday6210Thx for your info & instructiosn and the ÂŁ10off coupon code at eonon I could apply !
@PBet-ip7bxGood morning.
I have the same canbus but after installation the odometer mileage starts blinking.
Please let me know.
Using Wego connectors makes that install so much simpler. Looks like a good upgrade, shame about the trim kit missing essential bits and not fastening in properly. Might try your technique to get the original radio out of my Sprinter, as we haven't been able to remove it with the special radio removal tools we got.....

@rahmizan777Question for you does your Bluetooth drop out when driving so any radio channel stops playing .good video đ
@Nothing_Nothing485Great stuff! Only thing I would do differently is use shrink wrap instead of insulating tape on the joints as insulating tape comes off in time and defeats the purpose of it being there!
@ianbagley776Nice looking unit, eonon brand been around a long time. Lots of wires for my old brain but neat features like personalising steering wheel controls and the hdmi for another screen in the rear of the van!. Always wondered how reversing camera was triggered, had both factory fit on prev golf and aftermarket fit on my old Insignia. Look forward to following the camper build. đ
@Senrab46Iâve always found the dab reception to be poop on the Chinese units
@kevinadaway8257Well done lee coming along nicely đ
@rodharris2915Great review, looks a good piece of kit. Donât forget that interior light you removed in the rear, you can use the wiring for a âgarage lightâ in the rear of your van đ¤
@captaincoxyboyAbout 3 weeks ago I installed the Eonon VWA12S-6G into my VW Touran with the additional DAB dongle, I didnât use the included antenna as I already had one on my screen. You need to make sure to tighten down the socket on the back of the headunit, it makes a big difference.
Also Iâve installed a 4G SIM, and as I had a long drive with my daughter today (400 miles), I found she could use YouTube music from the screen as I used my phoneâs podcast player (and AirPods), to keep me happy too, all while using the inbuilt Waze app.
When sheâs not in the car I use the wireless CarPlay, itâs brilliant not having my phone on the dash, and it keeps me perfectly legal.
Also worth pointing out that if you buy a car specific radio from Eonon, it comes with all the adapters you need, including the CanBus for steering wheel controls, and parking distance sensor display.
One final thing, buy through the official store as you get a 2 year guarantee, and superb customer service, if you buy using their eBay or Amazon store, youâre actually buying customer returns, and youâll only get a 1 year guarantee. Delivery for me was within 3 days and crucially they use Royal Mail so you can track the parcel.
I wished Iâd bought it sooner!
