    Wireless AndoidAuto/carplay is horrible

    Other than the wireless carplay, android auto feature being the absolute worst with constant skips, the wire feature of this is much better.

    Works Great

    Works great and the wireless functionality is great. Works with multiple remotes including the RC-406. I bought this radio for my dad as a Father’s Day gift last year after he noticed mine in my Camaro restomod.

    92 Camaro

    Great option to add Car Play to a 92 Camaro! Bought this car for my 16 year old with only 22,000 original miles and wanted her to be able to use hands free for calls, navigation and music.
