Since I plan to get get the 2018 Toyota 86 I am not sure if it will fit (any idea? or any friend who has it on the 2017 86 or special edition?)

Unfortunately, carbon Car Systems did replied that they dont ship to USA. How did you guys get the products from them ?

Thanks
I bought the Kenwood DDX917WS from Carbon last June for my BRZ. I believe I was their first US customer for this unit. To buy it, I exchanged several emails with Daniel, the owner, and he agreed. I used the regular email address on their website. He even shipped it directly to OEM Audio + so they could tune the DSP for my 450Q order, and add this HU to their database.

Like an earlier poster in this thread, I'm a home stereo hobbyist. I listen primarily to high-end vinyl and tubes, and I'm very picky. I found the stock HU to be better than expected but still substandard. The Kenwood DDX917WS is far, far superior in sound quality, even via Bluetooth. It is so good that I have not even gotten around to installing the OEM Audio + system yet! Maybe this spring.....
