Wehan Posted October 30, 2016 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 Looking to ditch the craptastic Starlink HU in my new Subaru and get an Android Auto Head unit (mostly for the google maps function) My criteria are full idatalink/maestro functionality, backup camera and android auto, anything other than that is bonus features. Currently Alpine, Kenwood/JVC and Pioneer are the only units with idatalink/maestro with some not having full functionality. Any recommendations on what to go with and why are greatly appreciated.

Ahmed Johnson Posted October 30, 2016 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 I was looking at getting a pioneer 4100 with android auto, would it play youtube videos from my phone to the HU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wehan Posted October 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2016 I was looking at getting a pioneer 4100 with android auto, would it play youtube videos from my phone to the HU? No, you would need mirror link to do that I think, some head units have an accessory dongle that plugs into the rear HDMI that supports that. I take that back, that Pioneer unit has Mirrorlink so you just might be able to do it. So...you decide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
