Thanks! This was helpful.

CarPlay should be the same in every unit… but it isn’t. Google Maps is perfectly clear on my parents’ CRV, but not on my headunit.

I wrote up an explanation on XDA ...

Focal 165AS component speakers & amp

And the factory amplifier is not enough to power them, right? (Since it just powers the door speakers?) Would need to use an aftermarket amp?

Not gonna lie - I kind of regret getting the Joying unit over this. Huge screen (11.6”) is overkill. And call quality had been one of my main hesitancies about the Teyes.

225/60/16 for winter - buy or pass?
