5.0 out of 5 stars Best purchase from Amazon ever!
Best purchase from Bolo ever! 70 bucks for this thing, then a $120 install from Best Buy, so for ~$200, I’ve got CarPlay plus new USB ports that power up my dash cam. The old USB ports had a trickle charge and wouldn’t even power up my dash cam. You will need to upgrade your firmware. For that go to YouTube and search for instruction vids by Killobyte. He also has one to change your settings to allow touchscreen functionality while driving, which comes in handy when using CarPlay. The connectivity to CarPlay is fast / instant once you plug in the USB cable (unlike some of my other vehicles), it works great and I am super happy with this. The technician at Best Buy said that it was easy to set up, and as far as fit is concerned, it fits exactly where the old USB module was located so I would say the fit is perfect. Now I can get rid of my cell phone mount and also the battery pack that I used to power up my dash cam.
5.0 out of 5 stars Flawless!!!!
My wife has a 2018 Mazda CX-5. She is the original owner. We were quoted over $300 to get Apple Pay back when she bought the car. I finally got around to installing apple car play myself, you have to make sure you have the right firmware, there’s YouTube videos on it. It was easy and effective. If you are not save with basic computer skills, then I would say leave it to the professionals. It took me less then 2 hours to update the firmware and install the retro kit. Everything worked perfectly on the first try! Finally no more phone mounts!!!!
4.0 out of 5 stars Satisified and recommended for the price
Why did you pick this product vs others?:It works fine with the CX5 GT 2018. Sometimes it disconnects the phone and register a failure, but I cant really say it is all the module since these mazda infotainment system is usually laggy and presenting misbehaviors since out from factory. Overall it works as expected.
5.0 out of 5 stars Works great!
It does what it says, and at a reasonable price. The install itself is not that easy. Mainly due to how hard it is to do a software update on a Mazda. But once this is done, everything works like a charm.
5.0 out of 5 stars Works great
This gave me carplay functionality in my 2015 Mazda 3 i GT. Installation will be basically identical with any of these, which is to say not too difficult. I've had it a few weeks now and have no complaints that could be the fault of this unit.Some installation advice if you get this:Don't disregard the foam pads you get. I noticed a bit of rattling near the shifter, even though it was zip-tied to other wires, and had to remove that part of the trim again to use the foam on them.Spend a minute or two flattening out one of the cables, just ~2 feet, or alternatively use a different cable all together. Feeding the wire from the nav unit down to the footwell genuinely was the hardest part. You can tie the other cable to the flat one once you've routed it through and pull it down further.Take your time, get an $8 trim removal kit, and enjoy saving a ton of money.
5.0 out of 5 stars Easy and cheap
If you bought your 2018 CX5 without CarPlay or android auto, this is the way to go. The dealership will charge you a ridiculous amount of money for something that is easy to do with a 30 minute investment of time on your part.
4.0 out of 5 stars Faulty after a week (Updated)
Update: Original review below. So I decided to troubleshoot and double check that everything was updated properly and installed correctly. After confirming that I read on a forum that doing a quick reset of the computer system could help and that seems to have fixed my issue. I would still warn the customer to be cautious when purchasing but for now it is working. Will update if it fails again.Installed this right after I recieved it and it worked for one week, and now it won't activate Android Auto. It also froze the main system which I had to reset. Buyer be warned.
Easy to install and works perfectly!

Brilliant Update That Works
I installed this is a 2015 Mazda CX5. The device came in very nice packaging and came with everything you need in the box, USB unit, wires, cable ties, foam covers and instructions. The USB hub you replace is an exact copy of the one in my car so once installed you wouldn't know you had replaced it except for a small phone icon on the unit.It was relatively easy to install. The hardest part is getting the USB unit out of the car as it has four clips holding it in. I pulled the front cover off the old unit with a hook tool and then used a flat head screwdriver to push the clips down. It was still hard to get it out but once out the rest is easy. There are YouTube videos with different techniques on how to get it out. Watch them and try the one you think you can do. Follow the the instructions that you get and you can't go wrong.It works perfectly and connects immediately. All the original Mazda controls work to control the CarPlay screen.This is a great update to a ten year old car which I would highly recommend.

Excelente, no tan complicado de instalar, y me enviaron por correo la actualización del firmware.
Franchement bien.
J'ai acheté ce module pour ma MX-5 de 2016 dans la perspective d'un road trip de 2500 km en Bretagne et j'en suis très satisfait. Google Map, Waze et Spotify que j'ai utilisés essentiellement pendant ces 3 semaines sont très bien pris en charge, c'est juste un peu déroutant au début de devoir tout piloter avec le joystick de la voiture (le tactile n'est pas pris en charge) mais on s'y fait.Pas eu besoin de faire la mise à jour de mon système j'étais déjà en version v74 (à priori réalisé spontanément par mon garage eu Luxembourg).Je ne sais pas comment ça se passe pour les autres modèle de Mazda mais pour une MX-5, il faut démonter la moitié du tableau de bord jusqu'au cache du levier de vitesse (c'est assez impressionnant) mais heureusement on trouve de bon tutos et si on est consciencieux, ça se passe très bien. Du coup quitte à tout démonter (ou presque) , j'en ai profité pour m'installer également une caméra de recul.
Installed seamlessly into a 2019 CX-3, highly recommend.
Installed in an 2019 Mazda CX-3.Provides native CarPlay intergration, took around 20 minutes to install (if tech savvy). Need to ensure car is up to date before installing.It works flawlessly. I've installed Android head units in over 7 vehicles to get CarPlay, and this is the first one that work seamlessly with the car. Press the nav button it opens the chosen nav app (Maps, Waze etc), press music and you get your music (Spotify etc), press home and it takes you to the CarPlay home, not back into the Mazda system (which you can access if you 'open' the Mazda app on the screen).Fits perfectly, did take a bit of fiddling to get the old unit out, but once in, it looks like the stock item.Reminder that the touchscreen works when you're parked up, but once the vehicle is moving you are limited to the rotaty dial (which, personally is a lot better to use as its tactile).Great value for money, and is a complete game changer! Would recommend to any Mazda owner as it doesn't affect the old system, you still have the USBs (but now with decent charging!) and the map SD card still works.Cannot fault it.
