How to: Torque on an android powered stereo with no hacking v. Ca-Fi Dashlinq4
Ca-Fi Dashlinq4 in Toyota Universal Fitment - fits the FR-S/GT86/BR-Z perfectly without adapters or wiring needs (plug and play other than snipping one wire for steering wheel controls)

If no one knew - this stereo runs 4.1.1 and is their new version with upgraded hardware compared to past
I had the last unit, and got the newest one as soon as it came out! HUGE upgrade. Im an android enthusiast, but hate hacking my devices - so i was thrilled this worked out of the box.

Nice head unit. The only down part is the wireless dongle sticking out so much. Doesn't it get in the way while driving?

Looks like it could but to remedy for that is to get a obd2 extension cable and that would take care of that problem.

I do highly recommend an extension cable to prevent fatigue on the stock OBD2 connector though...

that said, you can easily unscrew the obd2 port and re-configure it so it doesnt get in the way if it bothers you.

I think I may order one of these now. Getting real tired of the OEM unit.
