As bad as the head unit in the 2016 limited is, you'd think there was a dealer installed replacement that they wanted to sell. The unit is slow, the UI is terrible and the compatibility with iThings...

That's the plan. I have been trying to determine whether pioneer or Kenwood is the right answer.

So without adapters for the miscellaneous bits, it's a matter of waiting for another model year until adapter manufacturers get their stuff together and ship us some product.

It's not an unplugging issue. The ipods flip into this state roughly half the time when the HU powers up if they were plugged in when the unit powered down.

I suppose, it's nice to just leave the music in the car, though. I did find a Youtuber that actually got Subaru to buy back his 2016 WRX over the head unit for basically this problem.

2016 BRZ Head unit replacement

Since Subaru had the infinite wisdom to move to an odd shaped head unit that is just terrible in most aspects, the following questions come to mind:

1. Is the wiring basically the same as 2015...

Amazing.

I may need one of those. The 100 pound tongue weight seems a little light though even for a bike rack. I was kindof of thinking a cargo carrier would be cool, but that could get too heavy very easily.
