Did you try formatting it into fat32? The radio probably don't read exfat. Windows cannot format more than 32gb but a 3rd party software should let you.

Maybe try this http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/ind...?guiformat.htm

Thanks that exfat might be the issue. I'll give that program a try.

That was the issue, works perfect now thanks

Am I retarded or something? I can't get my dash trim to clip in place over the unit, lol.

I had to test fit a few times until I got it right. Elongating the bracket holes to slide them forward.

Ketchum88 · 03-24-2016, 06:20 PM

Drill new holes into the existing brackets....need to move them back about 4mm for it to fit flush with the dash trim

joop1987 · 03-24-2016, 08:53 PM

I just enlarged the current holes on the right side bracket (radio side) so it slide a little backwards.

Well, there's gaps on the side of the radio with the 2016 BRZ radio dash panel, but I'm glad the panel fits over it. I was thinking I was gonna be running without a dash panel until getting a replacement panel that fits better. Lol.

Not sure where I want to route the new mic to yet. I have it temporarily coming out of the gap on the side of the radio and sitting in from of the instrument cluster.

I use it with an iPhone. Bluetooth streaming music works fine, as does voice calls and Siri. Running on the stock setup. Haven't rooted it or played with custom ROMs yet.

I have a 2016 BRZ, The stock HU sucks, which model did you buy? Does it have Navigation? Does back up camera work? Was it easy to hook up?

B-R-Z · 04-01-2016, 07:28 PM

Yes to all. There is a link to it a few posts back

I installed it a couple of days ago, swapped pin 9 to 8, and dremelled down the pins on the bracket. Overall, for just a straight install it was pretty simple. It took maybe 30 minutes.
Nobody's really posted any instructions for a backup cam, but the trigger wire needs to be manually soldered to the correct pin on the existing harness, and I had to splice power as well. The harness I bought didn't have that.
Getting the software to work the way I wanted to is a pain though. In total, I've spent ~6-8 hours trying to get it to work the way I want it to, including flashing new roms and stuff. Most of this was me being curious, and playing around though. It's as complicated as you make it.
