2017 86 headunit fit in older brz?

Found a used 2017 86 headunit under 300 on eBay and was wondering if it’ll fit my 2013 brz. PT546-00170. This is the part number for that headunit. Thanks

Don’t do it! I have a 2017 and the head unit is not good. Probably will not replace mine but would not recomend it.

As others have said, def not worth it. Save your $300 and invest in a quality head unit with android auto or apple carplay or the like. The 2017 Head units already had hit or miss issues with streaming audio and such.

Check this part of the forum for help on choosing one:
