Mine does, but it's largely useless. I have 6 apps available and not one of them is useful. Maybe weather, but every time I launch Starlink, it screws with BT Audio.



I guess iHeartRadio is alright.

It's frustrating having to launch the phone app first too. I don't have to launch Pandora every time, it just works.

Edit: Just tried to get iHeart to work for the past 45 minutes while stuck in traffic. If you want to make yourself even more pissed off during rush hour, I highly recommend trying it.

Oh I didn't know there was a host phone app.
To be honest I say screw it then I'll just use my phone on the vent dock thing and use Waze (super useful in SEA-town)

Yeah it's a host app. A bad one. Starlink should just be a screencast app with touch control. I realize you can't do multitouch but for most apps it doesn't really matter.

You just reminded me I need to try that here. I almost got nailed today, lol.

You should keep it like that.

is it a black cap like the chrome trim? If so the dealer was probably supposed to install it.

I would assume so. I don't have one to be able to tell you myself, ha. I was actually kind of thinking it still didn't look bad but I have the dealer looking into what happened and how to get a set.

Heads up, if anyone is trying to find a Series.HyperBlue - dealers in Portland, Oregon area apparently can't sell them. Every dealer around me that I've checked has 1 or 2 of these sitting on their lots (and has for a while) getting rained on.

Are they marked up?
Also out side of enthusiasts I don't see a lot of people buying a RWD going into the rainy season.
