Kenwood KDC-BT572U Car Radio Install Mount Kit CD Bluetooth Pandora

The only way to go

I recall reading some reviewers saying the chime was intolerable. That must be fixed as the chime and blinkers in my unit sound the same.

Installation was straightforward. It's nice to be able to carefully make all connections before getting in the vehicle. It is a bit pricey, but I think very worth it to maintain all original factory functions.

My installation advice is sit at a table with all instructions. Be patient, pay attention and double check each connection is what you intend. Write down ( or even photograph ) each wire connected for future reference. If there are problems when the radio is installed, it may help troubleshoot before you have to pull the radio back out.

All this said, don't let any of it intimidate you. There are a lot of wires, but with just a little study time it all is clear.

Finally, after my install everything works in my 2012 GMC. OnStar and factory XM still function. Although the satellite is now an auxiliary input and has limited information in the driver information display. Not an issue for me but some may not like. The only item that seems a tad flaky is after an OnStar call, my pioneer unit is returned power and must go through the entire cold startup. Again this is not so much an issue for me as I very rarely use OnStar calling, but others may feel different.

Good luck to all!

Easy interface

Easy hookup, and retains all factory functions, and no steering wheel programing =) I installed in 09 escalade,

Great product

Really easy to install. When plugging a couple of the connectors in I feel they didn't push in and had a tight connection, but then they were snugged in tight. Really good product.

Kenwood KDC-BT572U

Had this headunit for 2 weeks and for the price it is worth it. Bluetooth sounds clean on it and way more tuning capabilities than I even needed.

Works great

Works great. I replaced my stock stereo with this Kenwood. It's definitely a good deck for the money.

great value and product

exactly what was needed to get the job done in a professional manner !!

Couldn’t be happier!

The customer service was very good and when I got the radios installed they both worked great sound, and easy to use.

Good Buy

I am pretty satisfied with my purchase although everything that I needed for its installation didn't come with it. It was installed by Radio Active and I was told that I had made a good purchase and they could not have sold it to me for that price. It sticks out a little further than I would like but that's primarily my fault because I didn't check my radio's length before ordering. I have got nothing but good compliments on my radio. I am satisfied with my purchase and customer service. Thanks. Look at doing business in the future.
