   Bought this for my 2017 STI. The physical installation was very straight forward, however the wiring of the unit was much more involved. The instructions only provide a simple generic wiring diagram and the kit includes lots of cables and connections that were not applicable to my installation. Took a while to figure out what was needed and what simply was extra. (assume for other applications). If you are unfamiliar with these types of installations I would suggest having a car audio shop do this installation for you.

   Overall good unit and good price.

   I love this brand. The stereo function exactly as described. Fit exactly as expected and was super easy to install as well.
   I love the look of it too!
   Will buy again.

   My dad is over 90 years old and he still drives, quite well, actually, and he won’t give up this old Forester because he says he knows where all the controls are. But he’s using this silly GPS hanging from the front window for route guidance and I think that’s a bit crazy in this day and age. He wants to plug in his destination before he leaves on Android – often sending it from Google Maps to his phone from his laptop when he plans a trip. So then he’s looking down at his phone and not at the road and not really even using the window-mounted GPS. Drove me crazy from a safety perspective, but I did talk him into letting me put in this great head unit – it fits perfectly with a bezel that covers and surrounds the vents above it and the HVAC control knobs below it so it’s really seamless – and since it’s Android Auto, he just talks to it like it’s his phone and tells it what to play for his tunes using whatever service he wants (usually just YT music since it has everything) but more importantly, it syncs with his backup camera (the one previously tied to his GPS) so that’s a great view there, and now he’s looking at the road and seeing a huge screen map of where he’s going – all without looking down inside the car at his phone. Over 90 years old and he can handle it so it’s simple. I’m thrilled with this stereo and beautiful screen – so easy to use!

   I was worried about ordering this because everyone screams to order name brand things like idoing. I ordered this for my 2017 WRX premium.

   Took me about a hour to remove the factory unit and replace with this one and it worked very smoothly, I’m almost a month into using it and it connects to my phones wireless careplay within 30 seconds and it’s very smooth.

   The equalizer is a little confusing but it sounds amazing, no lag, easy install, beautiful Picture.

   Also worked with my Harmon kardon sound system with no issues.

   Currently trying to install this in my 2017 subaru wrx and it is not fitting. If you push the top in the bottom pops out and if you push the bottom in the top pops out. Any suggestions?

   I’ve only had my CGOGC Android Car Radio installed for a few days now, but so far it has exceeded my hopes and expectations in performance, but not in ease of installation. I struggled with fitment issues in my 2017 Crosstrek. The bezel simply would not sit flush and would not snap into the OEM slots. Long story short, I had to trim away plastic molding in 6 places, 3 on each side of the bezel, that were interfering with OEM mounting locations. Fortunately, the plastic was soft and easy to remove, but it took awhile to figure out where the problems were. After doing this, it fits perfectly. I did not install the provided back up camera. I’m using the OEM camera and it works with the wiring provided. I did not install the GPS antenna. I didn’t see the need since I’ll have my phone paired at all times and I’ll use the phone GPS. I also didn’t want the antenna to be an eyesore in the interior. There were connectors provided to hook up to the native USB port in the center console that did not work for me. Not a big deal to me since this device works great in wireless Android Auto mode. I routed the two provided USB cables to my glove box. System boot up is fairly quick and connection to wireless Android Auto is also smooth and quick. It’s all been working as it should, but if you’re streaming something like music and briefly use your phone for something, it sometimes stops the music on the head unit. Perhaps some kind of device conflict? I’ve managed to also connect the head unit to the local area Xfinity Wireless hot spots so I have broadband connectivity on my head unit for things like internet, YouTube, etc. while cruising around town. Pretty cool! I’ve also been able to install custom wallpapers for boot up so it shows a fancy Subaru logo when it starts up. The screen is bright, clear, and beautiful to look at. It’s also very fast and responsive to any touches. Kind of feels like a tablet or huge phone. Programming the steering wheel controls was intuitive and easy and only took a few minutes. The sound is terrific. It hooked up to my powered subwoofer with no issues and fine tuning the DSP has made this sound better than my previous brand name aftermarket head unit. So despite my fitment struggles, I’m still giving this 5 stars for now. It’s been so great to use. It really looks OEM, like it belongs there, and sounds great. It functions perfectly and has exceeded my hopes. I just hope it keeps working like it has. I will update if there are any future issues.
