    CarPlay and Android Auto dongles

    That's not going to work. Says you need to install an app in the Android navigation on the head unit. The cables and usb hub was very easy. I did it today in 45 minutes (after the 45 minutes last night for the firmware). I was surprised at how easy it was. I needed a 10MM socket and a...

    Bluetooth Audio Issues

    I have the same issue with my Android device, but not with my iPhone (work/personal mobile). I've reset the phone, reset the Mazda, it still happens every other time (or so).

    The HUD display in the 2017.

    I have the HUD in my CX-5. Only issue I've found so far is being tall and leaning. I'm 6'2" and generally rest my right arm on the arm rest when I drive (leaning to the right a bit). When sitting straight up with the seat all the way lowered, the top of the HUD is cut off (part that shows the...
