Good condition Return for car and car electronics

I will not use this embarrassment. It's built well enough to be called "not broken". We sent a man to the moon, but we can't seem to build anything better. China is creating a great dumping ground for the next generation. Unfortunately, the consumer has little choice. Either buy junk or nothing at all

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • No instructions

Bad product, suitable for cars and car electronics

This is not a very good quality. It was installed on a boat which required a lot of work re-wiring the head unit etc and after a few weeks the door at the front of the hull accidentally broke off on one side. Thought it might already be broken but not completely and opening it up resulted in it being completely broken. Used carefully, only after installation open and close the front door. I wouldn't recommend it as it's not very good and will most likely break with normal use. Waste of moneyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Very expensive

Main Cons - Marine Electronics

If you want it to be waterproof you need to make changes. First, all the wires are slightly pulled out. So you have to seal it. The foam behind the wire is not glued. Second, the two pieces that must be removed to install the radio hold the lip. This is how the lid closes and locks. Well, that is, the desire to close tightly. I had to wedge parts near the faceplate screws. Now it closes tight. The third and final is foam for the lid and main body. It doesn't match the cut. It's not cutโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Good Thing
Cons
  • Ugly Packaging

Absolutely bad design and quality

I only gave 1 star because 0 stars is not possible. This item is probably one of the cheapest items of its kind I have ever seen. As you can see from the photos I've provided, there is a round brass nut pressed into either side of this unit to attach this thing to any surface you want using the included bracket. The problem is that after applying about 3 ft-lbs of torque to the included handles, the brass nut is free to rotate in the body. Of course, this makes it impossible to tighten theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Hard to say

Poor quality, outdated schematic

Non-existent instructions, random wire colors that don't conform to any known wiring standard: green or black is not grounded, red is not powered, and none of the speaker codes match the colors on the my- Match radio wiring. Two black wires, you need to look at the position to tell them apart. Worse, there is only one positive wire. So unless your radio is so old that it doesn't have a digital display, you'll have to choose between turning the car on and off each time, or losing settings whenโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Some bugs

Not as good as we would like. in Automotive and Automotive Electronics

I bought this case and Pyle "Automobile" radio for the tractor cab. Basically I needed a case with a bracket so I could surface mount the radio. The rectangular radio box did not slip into the body. I used a rasp to increase the size of the hole by sanding down the plastic edges. Interestingly, the color codes between the body wires and the radio wires didn't even match the dual speaker system I plan to use. The biggest problem, however, is that the case lid has a flat seal and the case box has

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Many Things

Absolute nonsense, do not buy.

See I'm all for value for money and products that offer a lot of value for money but they're not. If you're looking for a marine-grade radio housing that you'll use MORE than a few times a year, look elsewhere. The hinges on this item are plastic, one hinge broke during installation right out of the box and trust me when I say I've been gentle. When removing the radio to inspect the broken hinge, the other side broke. I'm genuinely glad this happened at home and not on the water. The case seams

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Expensive

Great idea, but a poor hinge design will eventually break.

I bought this to set up a basic Bluetooth car stereo on my patio to drive my outdoor speakers by the pool. The hull feels very solid and they have put a lot of effort into making everything waterproof. The included wires are quite thin but great for this low power application. Unfortunately, the clear plastic lid is made of brittle plastic with molded hinges that break off easily. When the lid was first opened to press the buttons on the radio, one of the hinges broke and the lid fell off. Ifโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ

  • Almost never

Great hull for mounting above or below deck. well made, everything included.

I have read many positive and negative reviews and really can't understand why it has received so many negative reviews when the installer has a basic knowledge of how to take an item apart and put it back together they should have no problems. The manufacturer provides everything you need to install this case. Once you've got everything apart, including the small panel on the back of the device that's held together with six small screws, it's easy to add or use existing wires for yourโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Will write later
