new head unit

Finally got my new double din installed, went with a Pumpkin instead of the Joying just for the fact it is a Dual Zone unit and I will be installing 2 rear monitors for movies/games in the "headrests' of the front seats for the second row, and the dual zone will allow me to listen to music up front at the same time. Pretty happy with it thus far, Torque Pro works great and it has a bunch of other Apps I am still getting familiar with, just like the Android operating system on my phone.

Also had a rear view camera installed which is nice for backing up to trailers by myself, however I did notice the other day that whenever the key is on, the damn LED lights are on? So they are on all the time, which is not acceptable and if I cant figure out how to wire it to just have the LED come in in reverse only I might find another camera...

Looks like I posted the wrong pictures of me sending the measurements of the radio to the manufacturer, guess I should have proof rear my post first, my bad.

These were the other ones I meant to post.

new head unit

My Pioneer head unit it says it has dual zone in owners manual yet I can't get it to work. Thinking PO didn't install plugs behind unit since controls on front display for that aren't highlighted...I bought infrared headphones for kids but they won't work since no signal appears to be coming to rear display. I am afraid to try to pull it out myself since I don't know what I'm doing. I did pull rear display down myself. Seems like that is only hanging up there by a thread!

i have one here at the house that i bought for the ex, decided not to use it as it does not have siris/xm hook up. i liked all the other features though. here in the colorado mountains there is not radio service or reliable cell service to stream

satellite is the only way to get reliable stations of any kind.

i will probably pop it in the sons explorer, i have heard nothing but good about their function
