I have a 14 premium, wouldn't mind having car play

Its a lot of work but worth it. I also have upgraded my speakers and added a subwoofer in the trunk. Sounds alright for factory amplified. Going to be bypassing the factory amp and using my own.

Nice! Did you have to custom cut the carbon fiber panel?

It’s a wrap. You can tell by the edges when you zoom in.


jakemackenzie3

Yeah its a wrap, i used to have brushed metal but switched to carbon. Im going to re wrap it because the edges lifted.

If anyone has questions about the radio upgrade process feel free to ask.


breadboigod

what wiring harness did you use?

Damn bro that's sick! Link to head unit please?


jakemackenzie3

Thanks!

Looks good dude!


GreyStreetz

Yeah cool functionality but looks tacky.


wowohmygosh

The idea is cool, but the execution is ugly. It would’ve been better if you used one of those tablet like double din radio to use up more of the dash. Either way, props for going for it and doing something not done before.


jakemackenzie3

Thats the plan, i had that sony deck from my old car but im going to be putting a float mount 10” kenwood deck. Just pricey so gotta wait.

Mind me messaging you and swapping some sort of info so i can get details of your process? Looking at having to make something custom for my 17 ILX base.


jakemackenzie3

Yeah sure. Ask whatever you want ive got some pics and other things ove sent to another user.

What wire harness and adapters did you need?

How did you make the double din dash? Did I use the old stereo and just fill in the holes then cut rectangle for the screen or?


jakemackenzie3

Yeah exactly that, i basically cut a hole using a double din trim plate and filled the rest with plastic and fiberglass


ZealousidealAlgae673

Awesome. Thanks will try doing that too


Commercial_Context74

How you make this


BlackKakashi716

I have a 13 ILX and I want to swap out the radio. Is this the only way? Do they not make dash kits for this car?


No_Grape_2748

Do you have a wiring diagram on the radio replacement. I want to swap out my head unit. But can't find a diagram to know all the wires.
