Updating the firmware is not hard, Kenwood has an easy to understand procedure for doing so. You'll just need a USB stick to accomplish this. Takes about 15 minutes. This is my third Kenwood Excelon unit in my 2005 Mustang GT convertible. (I would buy a new Mustang but you cannot turn off the lights while driving.) Anyway, the unit does just about everything. With the initial firmware it came with the unit I had some troubles with Apple CarPlay. After the firmware update things are working much better. The navigation is done by Garmin which I like. However, bear in mind that after the unit is three or four years old new updates may not be available. A wonderful safety improvement on the newer navigation systems is that it does not force you to stop the car in order to enter an address. When I have a passenger they can type in the address for me. Of course, when driving alone I always pull over and stop. Primitive navigation systems will require the vehicle to be stop even when there's a passenger in the car. This is dangerous because it requires additional unnecessary, and maneuvering. I miss the days when people could comment on reviews, I learned so much by people commenting on my reviews, it would often allow me to make updates or corrections. Sorry. Review: Works great. Love the map. Just slow to boot up - Sounds so much better after installing this in my truck. Love it! ## Features - Apple CarPlay is a safer way to use your iPhone in the car.

Love the map. Just slow to boot up *by R***O on January 6, 2025* Sounds so much better after installing this in my truck. Love it! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hardware is showing its age *by U***D on January 13, 2024* This product is amazing for how old the specs are sadly. What I mean by that is it has a lot of great features like andriod auto and mirror. But it can't mirror in real time ie, when your sitting in your car and decide to throw something on while you wait it is very laggy and stuttry. The navigation garmin, make sure to update it its free! If you are often in a few states a day the garmin system dosent like to find your next address your going to so much if I am in Tennessee it can't route me home to ky. (I am in the very next city on the state line) Now aside from the few things I have said it still is fantastic. Just dated for what your paying. The head unit gets 4 stars because it has everything it says it dose just dosent have the ability to use it to my expectations. I do not recommend buying this head unit. I recommend looking at kenwoods other offerings. When you are buying this unit or other top end units I recommend using the Idatalink meastro system to get the most out of the head unit. Also make sure to get the wire harness adapters so you really do have everything your car and the head unit can do. I replaced the DNX997XR with a DMX958XR. The 958 DOSEN'T HAVE NAVIGATION it also doesn't have a few other features like the physical display adjustment ability. But for HALF the price it is a much better option. ## Frequently Bought Together - Kenwood eXcelon Reference DNX997XR 6.8" DVD Navigation Receiver Compatible with CarPlay - SiriusXM Satellite Radio Vehicle Tuner, Add to Any SiriusXM-Ready Car Stereo SXV300V1 - PixelMan Backup Camera,AHD 1080P Metal 170 Degree Wide Angle Rearview Reversing Camera,PMD2A-S Clear Night Vision IP69 Waterproof Reverse Rear View Camera for Car Vehicle SUV RV --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/202326330-kenwood-dnx997xr-6-8-cd-dvd-touchscreen-receiver](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/202326330-kenwood-dnx997xr-6-8-cd-dvd-touchscreen-receiver) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-06-23*
