Can I just say how helpful this video was? Just bought this for my 06 Legacy, and knew from watching this video that there were some necessary modifications that would have to be made, so thanks to this video I was prepared to tackle that, and with a game plan to follow as well thanks to this video. I've got one vent side done, and starting on the other, and it made it so handy to know what modifications to make, and save time on the install. Thank you very much as there is not much if any install info on these units.

Thanks for the kind words. If your wifi antenna is connected and your wifi is turned on in the OS and your having wifi problems, you may have a defective unit.

@ 9:09 you mention you have a "wide off cable" for the antenna, did you custom fit this as my 2007 model doesnt seem to come with that male antenna connector?

Is it possible to hook this up with an aftermarket pioneer radio?

I wish one for my legacy 2006, where I can find it ? Do you have a link?

You'll need an AUX if you still want to play music through the stock head unit. The harness that comes with the android unit will play sound directly from the new head unit.

Do you have to do any wire splicing? I just ordered mine for my 2007 Outback. Does everything just plug and play into old harness?

The answer depends on how you do it. But the harness that comes with the unit is plug and play, not splicing.

So, I went to install mine today and I couldn't get it working how you had yours. I have a couple of questions. What modifications to the wiring harness did you do to get it to work like that? Which radio plugs did you use, the white one in the radio? Where did you plug in the red & white audio cables on the harness into? We tried alot of different combinations and nothing worked how I was hoping that it would. Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

The way I wired my car, the audio signals go into the aux of the head unit so you have to have a head unit with AUX obviously. You have to purchase the connector for the rear interface of the AUX head unit and make a harness with female RCAs on the other end so that the Android unit can run it's preamp signals to it. There are instructions on the Subaru Legacy forums. This leaves the wiring harness from the stock head unit into the stock body harness untouched. Then you just add power to the android unit and an antenna splitter so you can run antenna signal to both the head unit and the android unit.

Hi just looked at your video. I have a JDM 2006 Legacy and bought a unit nearly the same as yours, the wiring harness looks the same as well as the gps and rear camera setup etc. Your dash unit is a little different at the back but essentially the same. I cant get any sound from my unit, everything light up, but no sound. Do I need to have an antenna to the new unit as well as the old unit. I've been over everything a number of times. Hope are able to help.

Hi. Thanks for watching!. You need the antenna to run to whichever receiver is going to be playing the radio. Both units if you want them both to have the capability. But Even if you didn't have the antenna connected you'd still get static so I suspect you have a different issue. How is the audio from your Android unit connected to the amplifier or speakers? Are you going directly or through the stock unit's AUX input like mine?

@@justaddafan sorry my bad. The rca cables have nothing to connect to. I thought the speaker sound would be thru the wiring harness which plugs into the original stereo as well as the new unit. I have no idea how other people have made their's work.

I have kind of an odd question: First of all this is exactly how I want to hook up mine (retain OEM stereo function) - Do you have to adjust 2(or 3) volumes with the method? Meaning phone bluetooths or USB’s to CarPlay unit (have a volume setting on your phone), then the new unit is treated as an aux my the old unit so on new unit your adjusting volume, finally on the OEM unit is your “master” volume. I absolutely abhor trying to balance aux in volume on 3.5mm or Bluetooth speakers it’s the master volume. Aka keeping one at 3/4 for the best sound quality and so on. Thanks for making this video

@justaddafan

There are separate volume settings for each input in the Android OS and there is also a master volume on the unit (buttons are on the face. You can also adjust the default volume of the AUX relative to the radio in the Subaru head unit. I have them all set more or less at comfortable levels. Now I only manage volume with the main knob on the head unit (or steering wheel buttons)

How did you go from the default screen to the one with the Subaru logo? I've messed around with the logo setting in the Settings app a bit, no luck so far. Also, could I just wire this to the AUX coming out of the original head unit if I didn't care about external USB usage or use of say an iPod like you did? Really happy you made this video, I'm in the process of installing in an 07 Outback LL Bean Ed. and ran into the HVAC vent issue.
