    Does this suit 86? Also did you make the plug and play harness in house?

    what about these?
    *Toyota Antenna Adapter
    *USB Retention Adapter
    *Factory Toyota Reverse Camera Retention Cable

    • Was looking into getting this. The harness is the official one created by Kenwood

      I opted into getting the DDX9017DABS as it has digital radio and is about $700 at JB

    • Look up carbon car system. they make lots of plug n play harnesses for kenwood for 86

    Cheaper here:-

    https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Kenwood-DDX917WS-7-200mm-Apple-C…
    $839.99 - 10% code PUNCH = $755.99 Free Standard Postage or C&C Woolworths

  • Just a little heads up, this model is about to be superseded, Kenwood due to release new ACP/AA units early 2018.

    • which is why its not full price anymore

  • I own this unit, kinda like it, but there is lots of missed potential in it.
    The AIR Gesture is a bit of a wank, and the only thing that this has over the DDX9017DABS
    On the other hand the DDX9017DABS had DAB+, but will need an adapter to fit in Subaru/Toyota dash boards.
    The DAB+ antenna is also separate to the FM broadcast antenna, and sticks to the inside of the windscreen, can be a dealbreaker if you don't want to stick things.

    Quite a powerful unit, but very limited options for customization etc..
    Inbuilt compass tells North / South / East / West, if you're going to code that into the firmware then why not give us a full blown compass?
    Chromecast also would have been nice.
    Would love to see flagship car head units come with more capabilities.

    I'm dealing with mine in Android auto a lot of the time, pretty good setup.

  • The DDX9017DABS (Next model up I believe) is currently $695 at JB Hi-Fi

      Not quite. They’re basically the same model, but the 9017 is double din as opposed to Toyota specific.

      • Oh I wasn't aware this bad boy was Toyota specific. I have the DDX9017DABS, it's a fantastic unit :)
