- A: AnswerThe BB website and app are not great re determining fit so I looked on Crutchfield for you and they say yes, it will fit but with a modification(s). I wouldn’t worry about that too much but would def consult with the install shop before buying. It does not come with backup cameras but a kit can be purchased for it. Again, consult with the pros first - the install crew that installed this unit in my gals BRZ really knew their stuff. The sales staff? Not so much, no offense, they meant well. Speakers? I don’t know but the install crew recommended an upgrade for her BRZ. This doesn’t answer all your questions but hope it helps. My gal loves this deck and the Apple CarPlay.

- A: AnswerI put one similar to this one in my 2012 JK a few years ago and I had to buy the double DIN kit, adapter for the antenna, USB cable to extend the USB connection, and the wiring harness. I also bought the harness to connect my steering wheel controls and installed a rear camera. I am now looking for a replacement unit since mine got wet and is not working anymore. I might get this one myself.

Great deck, awesome features!
Let me start by saying that I had been getting spoiled with Apple CarPlay, in my work truck. So when my stock deck was failing (2010 Prius), I felt that I needed something with CarPlay. This deck seemed to click all of the boxes for my requirements (CarPlay, Bluetooth, HD Radio, etc). I had Best Buy do the install, figured I’d save myself any potential headaches. I couldn’t be happier with this deck. It is awesome, I’ve had zero issues with it. The only cons would be: Maps won’t work from your phone, solely through Bluetooth (but there is a USB to plug into). The back up camera takes a bit to show up after starting the car (I believe the deck is just going through a boot sequence), but you are able to activate it through a sub menu. The microphone seems to pick up a lot of car noise when using the phone. Nothing that I listed as a con takes away from the awesomeness of this deck (for me), just listing some things in case others had concerns. I would absolutely recommend both this deck and the Best Buy install. Thanks.

Grea Buy Great Best Buy Service
Pioneer is known for quality. It’s really a great car play. I bought DMH-2660NEX which is similar to DMH-2770NEX except that the carplay is witeless in 2770. They both are on sale prices for $349.99. I think sometimes the wireless could be the problem so I depend on wired car play. This fit my Highlander 2012 limited with no GBL and no navigation. This is also available at Crutchfield but remember the basic installation is free at Best Buy. The additional installation of backup camera connectivity and wheel audio controls connection installation are charged. You have to buy the accessories like double din and some connections harnesses. Those are available at Best Buy if not the at Crunchfield. The Best Buy sites guide you about your car model etc to let you know if it’s compatible. The same you can verify on Crutchfield site as well. The Crutchfield prices are same as Best Buy but the basic installation is free at Best Buy and it’s a great service which is backed up by the lifetime warranty on it. You can take the car back to them if there is any issue with the device and installation. Call the Best Buy customer service that handles the sells of car play and appointments. They guide you to let you know what accessories are required and buy those before you make an appointment. The service person was very knowledgeable and he returned the additional accessories thst bought in case if they may be needed. The installation was done in an hour and I am greatly pleased with their service. I will suggest to go to Best Buy instead of the dealer or any other local shop.

Definite hits and misses
Bought this for a base 2011 Honda Fit. In many ways it's a huge upgrade over factory radio: * Android Auto /Car Play * backup cam compatible * HD radio * great sound and quality * very easy to connect to phones etc * great value over options from Boss/Jensen However I do have some issues, mostly with visibility on the screen. The screen to me is rather dim and not very sharp. Playing with contrast and brightness only helped so much. But my biggest gripe is with the touch controls on the right side - they are too small and too dim to be seen easily even when you aren't driving. If you have steering wheel controls this is probably less of an issue, but as the Fit doesn't it's a real hassle. I may end up mounting the remote to use that for volume. The screen itself catches a lot of glare from sunlight. The screen is also relatively low-res which isn't a huge deal but for this price I frankly expected a better image. If I had my time back I would have spent the extra money on a unit like the Sony AX5500 that has actual buttons. This will be my son's car eventually and I got it primarily to add hands-free driving and a backup camera, so it will fit that bill. But I wouidn't get this again
