Justin,

The car continues to come along! I installed the OEM+ system a year ago and love it. I put electrical tape over the gain control light - that tiny LED is blindingly bright! I've thought about changing the head unit: if I did, I would go with the same unit as you or a 2017+ BRZ unit. I'm curious, did you get an Australian-spec Kenwood?

The sound deadening material is a great add-on that I thought about doing when I had things torn apart to install the OEM+ system, but I skipped it. I don't have any rattles (knock on wood), but it would be nice to cut down on road noise. I doubt if I'll ever do it as I don't want to tear things apart like I did for the OEM+ install and judging from your photos, installing the Noico requires a lot more stripping down than needed for the OEM+ system. .

Have you tried the wireless Apple CarPlay yet with the new head unit? If so, how does it function?

Thanks, I'll see Trevor at training later this week if he is able to make it.
