I did not, but it looks like it's easy to get one that works for less than 20 bucks or so

I will Rip it apart tonight and take some pictures..

Just did the basic install for to test out FM, GPS, to check if they work or not.

Haven't go the time to install the reverse camera yet.
Going to route the Mic to the OEM mike location.

Purchased this to Retain OEM USB harness to USB connection on the aftermarket HU. Not going to bother with the OEM 3.5mm Jack, will never use it anyways.

DJcarbine.

I got the OBD2 form Joying, It pair and connects to the headunit and Torque app. But it doesn't show any real time data after.
And it throws a lot of U0073 code when it is communicating with the cars ECU and sifting through AUTO detect mode to find a Protocol that would work. Not sure if adaptor problem, so i got a couple more to try it out.

If the harness config for OEM Audio is the the same as OEM , i dont see why now.

Right now my connection is like this.

OEM harness - kicker sub harness (plug & play) - Joying harness (Plug & play)
Just need to repin the connect on #9. - Android head unit.

Anyone noticing the resolution on this thing is.. strange? I find a lot of the apps don't seem to fit correctly.

It's almost as if the sight impaired mode is on.

I told the guys at OEM Audio+ the headunit I was using, they took care of the DSP settings etc.

The harness is a standard toyota harness, basically just get a radio harness made for the FRS, and wire it into the android HU harness like any other install.

Plug and play

I installed one of these last weekend and so far I like it a lot. Shipping was fast and install was pretty simple. I had to grind the nipples off the original brackets and move the amp wire from pin 8 to 9. If you have a BRZ, you need to connect both pins. The unit comes with the Toyota harness for power, speakers, .... But you will need the antenna adapter cable (Metra 40-LX11) and USB adapter cable(Metra AX-TOYUSB).

How does everyone like the unit? I've found it on amazon. Is it really worth it?
