Thank you for the info posted so far. +1 on the USB routed replacing the 12V outlet.

I've been looking at the Alpine iLX-W650 to upgrade the stock nav unit on '13 BRZ. Main reason: Android Auto. Seems a good price at $300 (free install at Best Buy) and it has 2 camera inputs.

Anyone has experience with this unit?

Finally getting around to getting parts for this. was the 3 ft cable more than long enough?

Did mine up over the weekend. I ended up relocating the stock double USB unit under the center console.
