Now the year for the legacy and outback will vary between regions. Fitment isn't great at the top but i believe i can trim the clips.

I just purchased a Android (Hikity) based radio for my 2013 Legacy limited with H&K radio with AMP. NEW radio, plug the speaker harness in to the new radio. The Blue wire with NO RCA end is power for your amp. The blue wire from new radio harness connects to PINK wire from main radio harness from the car. Buy a junction fitting, package $5 and connect the two. BLUE wire radio is connected to Pink wire car harness. .
Im about to buy the hikity unit. Do you have a working tpms sensor? Also do you have an adapter that retains the subaru usb in the center console?
Thanks for the video. It touched on the things I was worried about with these sorts of tablet-based screens;
1) very slow to turn on due to it having to boot every time
2) clunky interface
3) not plug and play (antenna wire etc)
4) fitment issues
Thanks for sharing
The tiny din pocket is a massive turn off from the double din pocket with door, especially as wasn't required to be removed if they just spent 10 more seconds planning the panel. No idea why they decided they needed to include an entire face kit instead of a mountable unit inside the existing double din hole either - the entire unit sticks out from the face panel so why bother making a new one anyway
seriously… would’ve 100% bought this right now if it weren’t for it removing that door pocket. like what am i supposed to do with that
i also have 2014 outback harmon kardon. does this work for us. plug and play. what else do i need to use backup camera, AM/FM and balance for my speakers? any help would be great
Hi There, Great Video. My unit works great when the car is not actually started. Every time I start the car the screen turns off. What is the best way to fix this issue? Thanks!
Where did you plug in the wifi wire for this unit for legacy?
First video of the year, Thanks for the support!
Hey @JohnNguyenVincent , it's been about a year and a half since you uploaded this video, I'm wondering how it's held up over the past year and a half of normal use and would you still recommend this radio over a "Universal" Apple CarPlay head unit by Kenwood or Alpine and the likes.
That's if you still have the car, but I am very interested in one of these radios, they seem perfect and fast. Thanks!
@@_Skion this is my friends car and he only uses it for apple car play. No issues for that specific case. He loves the screen quality and uses apples maps and Waze on it with Spotify
@@JohnNguyenVincent Ok great, I really appreciate the response! Yeah I'm looking to upgrade my girlfriends car and she'll only be using it for Spotify and Waze too lol.
Unfortunately, she has the harmon/kardon package and amp, would you or your friend know anything about that and be able to point me in the direction for a wiring harness for the radio? I just ordered the radio on eBay but I don't think it will be as seamless since she has harmon/kardon lol
And mine came with Mcintosh amplifier.... the guys asked me 4000 NZD because apparently Mcintosh is notorious to work on...
Not sure if you still look at comments, but I just installed a similar EKIY stereo in my 2010 outback.
Same as yours, only one of the three cables fit - I left the ground and SWC cables.
Weird behaviour - works when in accessory mode but once I power the car up, it doesn’t work. Also in ACC mode, doesn’t seem to let me map SWC. Any thoughts or suggestions? Not sure if these two problems may be related?
I’m having this acc issue too
@@cesardaza4945 I contacted the seller and they gave me a fix that worked for me. Not sure if your harness is the same, but they told me to cut the A7 wire (which is the steering wheel learning wire). If memory serves me right it was brown.
Steering will learning and all buttons still worked, and cutting this wire strangely fixed it.
If you can’t get in touch with your seller, may be worth a shot for you too!
Good luck :)
I would like to know how to make the steering wheel sound controls work
I installed on of these in my outback today and all in all the unit is great. When using just he bluetooth connection to play music the equalizer settings are applied, when I go to Apple CarPlay they are ignored - everything sounds tinny... Any thoughts on how to fix this? Thanks!!!!
Great video super helpful! Is the process the exact same for a 2011 Subaru outback? do you know if the wiring is the same?
Yeah it should be similar, subaru's generally use the same harness unless you have the harmon kardon package.
I have a outback limited 2012 with a harmon kardon system, what adaptation do I have to make in this case? the audio output is different from the Multimidia harness
@@JohnNguyenVincent I do have the harmon kardon package. The install didn't work! hoping that I can figure it out one day.
@@augiefrankdid you figure it out. I have Harmon speaker as well
How was the sound quality compared to the original bluetooth in the car?
were you guys able to find out what the other cables were meant for?
Hi johon I have a 10 legacy gt and I need more I for as my car has the built in amplifier Harmon kardon so witch one I should get for my car please respond thank you
hey man I was wondering if you know if I need any additional harness for my Harmon/Kardon system? I just got one ordered and just wanted to be prepared. this unit didn't say it wasn't compatible. great video thanks man
Did it work for you? I have a 2012 outback with the Harmon/Kardon system and was looking to upgrade to this setup.
Same? Is it harmon/kardon compatible
Any updates on yours?
Interested as well. And i am curious if the stock backup camera works.
I have a big gap at the top and the clips are showing. But everything is plugged in and works great. Just cant get that top to fit in..
So no way to I stall Amp a d subs?
Did you need to plug in the ground wire from the car?
I’m having an issue, the unit turns on when the accessories are in but when the engine turns on the unit cuts off
Wondering the same
@@brianmillette7453 you don’t need to plug it in. But one cable does need to be cut for it to work properly.
@@danscullyjr which cable?
the issue with this is that i really need the radio and rear view camera to work, or else i'd buy this. anyone know other alternatives that would work on a Suburu Legacy 2012 model?
Hey I didn't watch the whole video, I just jumped around but I thought they said there are ports in the back of the radio for a rear-view camera to go into. Is that not the case?
Did you hear/see something else in the video that said otherwise and would you be able to share the timestamp if possible, thanks!
So there’s no radio anymore?
Hi can u please do a review on this radio please not much to go on with this radio more info
Is this plug and play with stock amp?
Hey John, thanks for your videos. Any suggestions on 2017 subaru forester android auto/apple carplay unit?
I have a ton of video on that car. It uses the same as the Subaru WRX and STi!
The TPMS sensor link is broken, the item on eBay must be out of stock or not available for purchase any longer. Can you link one that’s functioning?
What does the tpms sensor do?
which amp wire gives it sound. i’m not using an amp
If you don't have an amp then you don't need the amp wire
Were you able to fix the top gap? I’m having the same issue with my aftermarket head unit where there’s a gap at the top with some clips showing.
i filed down the clips in the back and now it sits flush
Hi, where are you from?
United states
Think you could get a brushed look with scotch brite on the panels to help it tie in?
Do you know which works with 2011 outback, Harmon kardon speaker, no nav? Thank you
Those ones are tricky, the upgraded amp should work still. I have a 2015 wrx with HK and it worked
