Your Video is the simplest video I've ever seen 👏🏿, is pretty much straight to the point with the essentials needed, the other videos I've seen they almost take the whole dashboard off... I just finished doing mine it took me about 2hrs. ps. the hardest part is just routing the cable from the top to the bottom MAZDA 3 2015 Hatchback. ordered the module from Amazon less than $100
I understand that the modification works only with the mobile phone connected by cable. Do you still have the original wireless connection for music and calls?
@@ballarinc2123 I mean, my car has a Bluetooth phone connection built in as standard and you can receive calls and play music. If I want to put the Android Auto on, will I lose these wireless functions and it can only be connected via cable? Practical example: I don't want to use the map but I do want to play music via Bluetooth and when I want to use the map I should connect my mobile phone via cable, right?
Thanks for the video, looking at installing this in my 2017 Mazda3. Looks easy enough but haven’t seen a video where someone has done it with an electric hand brake and the sliding draw
Yes it's pretty straight forward. For the 17-18 I'm not sure if you need to remove more of the climate controls to get access to the USB. Hopefully it works out for you!
if you have the electric parking break. DO NOT .....I REPEAT DO NOT Disconnect the parking brake switch or push start button. the car will flip tf out. Or alternatively just disconnect the battery when working on the car . all will be well and it will be the same process

Done it this week and didn't have to change anything on mine. Just get the correct files on the stick drive and install it. A different video, though, nothing like this one
Thank you so much for the video. I just installed a retrofit kit bought from Amazon Canada. It worked well for the first month, but now I am facing serious issues with the system. If I drive the car for more than 45 minutes to 1 hour, AA gets disconnected and reconnects back in 10 seconds; eventually it gets disconnect completely. To get it to work again, I need to turn off the engine and wait, like, for around 10 minutes. Initially, I thought something was wrong with my USB cable, and I replaced it with a newer one, but it still didn't fix the issue.
Hey buddy, I saw you doing something interesting! When you remove the console where the spot button is located, which one controls it? The sport button on my 2018 Mazda 3 hatchback doesn't work.
Hello just recently installed the carplay to my 2018 mazda3.When I connect the phone using bluetooth the screen black outs.What do you think is the problem?
Thank you for the tutorial, it helped a lot. If you dont have a wire hanger, use a plastic one, vreak the long bottom piece and feed it from BELOW up to the vents. That worked for me :)
Thank you for a great tutorial! I have a question. Why is that the OEM Mazda Kit USA only contains 2 USB cables without the HUB unit but costs $213? Can you share where you get the cables?
Glad to hear the video was useful! Maybe certain models don't need the hub from factory just the cables? I thought the OEM kit was around $500 (CAD), or maybe Mazda sells the cable alone as a replacement part. Not sure TBH but I would get the complete kit if I were you.
Thanks for the helpful video. I just upgraded my 2014 Mazda3. The hardest part for me was routing the wires. I would have liked to see a little more detail on how to do that. I ended up using a flexible rod and tape to fish the wires. At 1:30, it took me a while to notice you had removed the large lower panel.
Did it work? According to mazda, only 2014 models support Android auto? I've updated my system but haven't invested in the part yet. *edit: I have an 2015 M6 EU.
Thanks for the abstract video, I have a Mazda 3 2019, it was very helpful and saved high costs , do you have an idea why the touch screen does not work with an application Android auto?
from what I hear mazda blocked the touch panel on specific versions, search for hacks to the cmu to unlock the Touch screen as well as adding custom backgrounds and showing date..., I did them before and they worked on the old firmware but I don't know about this newer firmware
Great video, thank you!! One question, what about the cable you pulled through the left side? How did you bring it inside the infotainment control section?
Thanks glad you liked the video! For the cables I fed them from the top, and guided them with gravity, you could also feed them from the bottom if you tape them to a metal coat hanger. Hope this helps!
@@DrivingProduction thanks for replying. So, in this video you have them duct taped or do u somehow fed them again from the inside on the side after grabbing them at the bottom?
Great video thank you. Do you by chance knows how much amperage the USB port is putting out? I've wired android auto on another car and it outputs 1A and doesn't really charge my phone.
Thank you for the video! I followed your instructions after updating from firmware version 59.xx to 74.xx and installed the new hub. However, after installing it, I noticed something weird. I have no Apple Carplay or Android Auto options under Applications. They just don't appear there. I double checked the system version and it's running 74.xx NA, but something must have gone wrong. Luckily, everything works as before. In fact, the system just starts up much faster now, but this entire surgical endeavor was meant to enable AA/AC, but I have no luck. I've also had no luck finding a solution as I couldn't find any reports of users installing both the new firmware and the retrofit kit and not seeing the AA/AC options at all. Would anyone happen to have run into this? Any ideas on what I could do to fix it? Thank you in advance!
Glad you liked the video! Sorry to hear you are having issues with it, have you tried using different cables to connect your phone? Sometimes that can have an impact on it, apart from that sounds like a software issue not sure what it could be
I'm not 100% sure if that's possible the closest thing I know of is the AIO mod, here's a video that goes over it: th-cam.com/video/y77xS68pXds/w-d-xo.html
@@DrivingProductionI'll tell you why, I had mazda 3 2011, someone carshed into it. now i'm carless and thinking getting mazda 3 2016, but my old mazda had android head unit that was compatable with the OBD2, I had my dashboard on my headunit, it was great for diagnostic and track use.
Ah I see that makes sense! I don't think you can mod the factory screen to that extent but I know you can replace it with an android unit like you had in you 2011 and have the same features. They sell them on eBay and Amazon.
I did this into my mazda3 2018. The installation was pretty easy. The problem I have is the entertainment function is now disabled and there is no FM radio into the android box. Any idea on how to enable the entertainment function and I have access to the Mazda FM feature?
That's a great question, but I'm not sure to what extent Toyota changed the Mazda 2 to sell it as a Yaris. I would assume its the same, but you'd have to make more research to confirm.
comes standard in the cx-5 2019 touring and above. base sport model doesn't though . there are also videos of people doing it inthhe CX-5. just google it.
@@AMR15Hits just the touchscreen, mine had the same problem, but i was able to find the touchscreen replacement for only $12 on ebay, its very easy to replace!

You've got nerves of steel to take that dash apart but you made it happen!
I was wondering if this will void my car's warranty?
Wife has a 2021 Toyota Yaris that's basically a Mazda with this exact head unit. Will this work in that?
That's a great question, but I'm not sure to what extent Toyota changed the Mazda 2 to sell it as a Yaris. I would assume its the same, but you'd have to make more research to confirm.
did it worked?, I also have a Yaris and I want carplay
Can I follow these same steps for my 2019 cx5 ?
It should be very similar overall, but it won't be exactly the same.
comes standard in the cx-5 2019 touring and above. base sport model doesn't though . there are also videos of people doing it inthhe CX-5. just google it.
would this work for a mazda 6 (2017) UK model?
Yes it should work!
2016 mazda 3 - bluetooth would still work after install?
Yes 100% it still works!
Hi, will this work on a 2016 or newer Mazda 6?
It should but you should verify fitment on the product listing.
Did u guys disconnect the battery before doing the process?
Did you ?
Hi friend, please, where can I get the update? I have system 56
If you go at the Mazda dealership they can update your software
Where can i find the firmware download link? I’ve been looking for it with no luck so far.
What’s your email? Or you can search 70 firmware update. Just updated mine today

Yes the early 14-16 Mazda connect screens cracks over time it's actually something that can be fixed I should be doing a video on it soon!

Hello where i can find the wire connector ( name and model i ve a mazda cx 9 2016 electric parking brake
I got mine off eBay, so if you look up to model and year there you should be able to find the right one.
In my car it keeps auto clicking on random stuff it’s so annoying anyone have same issue that knows how to fix it.
Sometimes there are some bad headunits that need to be replaced for the 14-16 ones. Could also be the cracked screens that affect it.
I have the same problem ! It comes and goes
Hi! I had the same issue. All you have to do is replace the touch screen (its very easy to do so) and its done
Basic steps but the cx9 the center console is much more difficult to unhinge 😢
$400? It might not be worth it for me
on eBay the kit is around $100-$150
