Just changed my factory 2013 Acura ELS head unit for a new JVC touchscreen. Was only able to do it as I found an Acura Audio specialist online who made a custom harness kit for my make & model. Can't be done otherwise. Having Android Auto with "hey google" voice control is awesome!
The main problem was the climate control integrated into the stereo. Had to change the factory nav screen to a non-nav display only screen and then was supplied a new harness to connect my climate control to this new display screen. And had to buy a new air vent to fit the new display screen above it. Kinda complicated but amazingly everything works and fit perfectly. So happy now!
Thanks for the sound advice!
Haha. I see what you did there! Thanks bro

That’s awesome. Surprised PAC audio doesn’t make a harness

Any complaints from the computers? These new trucks seem super picky about any sort of changes, even ones that should be benign.
That’s a great question Clayton. No issues at all.
