Pioneer 9" DMH-WT7600NEX Floating Display Installed: First Impressions w/OEM Audio+
This is Pioneer's competitor to the Halo 9.
Pioneer Link Unboxing video If you're interested in vids or something specific (like Gaia), just message me on IG @thegraverunner and I'll see what I can do. Don't message me here as I won't see it. This won't be an install thread as there are many like it and it's very straight forward if you've done this before. Maestro's supplied harness and wiring diagram makes it pretty easy. Although I will note: when you are installing it, there are two plugs that are keyed and only go one way that plug into the OEM+ speaker and sub harness instead of the stock harness (they will hang loosely and are unused). Last week I got my hands on the just released Pioneer 9" DMH-WT7600NEX as well as a Maestro RR to retain steering wheel controls. I installed this on 2019 TRD ORP, with OEM Audio+ Reference 500 and fully soundproofed doors and floorboard with Noico 80mil. I bought it off Crutchfield due to the generous return policy (60 day). It arrived on a Monday and I had it installed by the following Wednesday. Since there was no pre-assembled "kit", I pieced together everything separately.
Total cost for the above items came out to USD $1337.66. Labor was free as I did it myself. I used this Halo9 install video for the interior: link I bought additional items like an antenna usb adapter but ultimately did not use them. I never listen to FM or Sirius radio and the usb adapter didn't plug into my usb port on the bottom. If you are an OEM+ user like me, depending on when you bought it, you may have to flash the amp/signal processor under the seat - I've yet to do this as they are sending me a dongle that I am yet to receive. While I've adjusted the EQ and speaker settings to my taste, I still want to have this done.

Cons
I've only had it a week and probably have clocked a grand total of 4-5 hours of drive time with (if that), so I'll be sure to update this thread with additional photos and long term impressions, especially with extended trips as things heat up in summer and as I venture off-road with it. Anyways, hope this was helpful for anyone looking into this. |
damn, that looks pretty slick. how is the glare in the sun?
|
I like it. Want to try that modular unit with a custom mount

Are you out of gas or is it not reading the fuel gauge?

This looks better than the Alpine option that seems to block the vents no matter how low you have it. I'm still meh about the floating screen look.
I used the PAC USB-TY1 for my USB. |
So OEM+ and the Pioneer = $4000?
|
Looks nice as it doesn’t cover much of the vents or obstruct the knobs.
How many CarPlay icons does it have across ? Compared to the t9, it has 5 across. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...10848ee9e4.jpg |

Where did you put the microphone? I'm looking for ideas on where to place mine when I install.

Looks nice, I've always been a Pioneer fan. I just recently bought an Alpine Halo 9 for a bit less money, but this definitely looks like a nice radio
