Hi guys,
I was looking for a head unit with Apple Carplay Wireless and Android Auto. A lot are available but I was looking for one with Wireless and not just Wired CarPlay. Given the advent of no usb/thunderbolt ports on iPhones in the future(given Apple design's team vision of a completely port free product) I wanted something that could reasonably last me a long time. I also hate wires in my car.
But the problem is, even though I found and ordered the model I wanted that ticks all the boxes, the crutchfield site says its not compatible.
I have attached a screenshot of the crutchfield page. It says that the depth of my OEM is a little less than the Pioneer. About .266 too big. But it seems like such a small amount(but I have no idea, thats why I came here).
I was wondering if a local audio shop would still be able to fit it in for me without damaging my car or having it bulge out too much. I am ok with a little budge.
I actually saved a lot of money by getting a great deal on this head unit and would hate to return it. Especially with anything with comparable features (wireless carplay) costing twice as much.
I have also attached a screenshot of the Pioneer's website fit guide that shows the same incompatibility.
