Info for 2007-2014 GMC Yukon/Chevy Tahoe

I wanted to share this post in case it helps others, as I couldn't find clear information on YouTube or forums about an easy way to connect an Android 13 radio head unit while keeping rear flip-down screens functional. Here's what worked for me:

I used a USB-to-CVBS adapter and a male-to-male RCA adapter, as shown in the attached photos. I connected the stereo's video output to the male-to-male adapter, then attached it to the CVBS video adapter. On the other side of the adapter, I plugged in the auxiliary video input, and everything started working seamlessly.

One important step: You need to access the factory settings and enable the "AV Video Out" option, which is off by default.

To enter factory settings, you'll need a password. For the Android 13 unit from Awesafe, the password I used was "000000"—there are plenty of YouTube videos showing how to do this.

Let me know if you need further clarifi
cation!

Wholly smokes, I’d be puffing my chest for pulling off that feat. :Get him!:Thanks for sharing, especially the code for the unit.

We’re all quite lucky with this generation of truck to have so many aftermarket goodies that seem to just keep on coming.

Seriously, what’s next? Aftermarket Adaptive Super Cruise

one has to assume since the android unit is not 2-zone capable that this is simply mirroring the front screen?
