Pioneer AVH-ZL5150 - New LHD 200mm Head Unit w/ CarPlay and Android Auto!
https://www.pioneer.com.au/shop/car/avh-zl5150bt/ Exciting stuff! Looks to be more of a reasonably priced option than the Kenwood DDX918WS, and since the buttons are on the left hand side, much more natural to use in LHD markets. Anyone install one in a twin yet? Trying to figure out if its plug and play or if I'll require a Metra harness from AutoHarnessHouse in addition to their 28 pin harness and USB plug. EDIT: Since I've gotten some questions on it, all the buttons on the headunit are in fact physical buttons, and not capacitive. I falsely stated in the thread that they were capacitive (this was before I installed it in my car), and that is incorrect. EDIT 2: Now that I have the unit installed and all of the issues sorted out, this is what you need for this headunit to make it a plug and play affair. EDIT 3: 2022 Update! Updating this based off of AHH website updates, who have now added the Canadian-Specific 2017 harness onto their harness selection.
Here’s what it looks like installed:

Looks like no one has bought one yet, but it does look like a nice solution. I've had a few Pioneer radios past (and current) and they tend to perform without issue. |

Why are all these 200mm units never available in the US?

As an update, I’ve ordered this head unit!
To go with it, I ordered a harness from autoharnesshouse.com which will make installing this head unit a full plug and play affair; it consists of the 28 pin harness, USB adapter, Metra adapter to Pioneer direct wire harness, and AM/FM antenna adapter to retain the following: -Backup camera funtionality -Auxiliary inputs -Reverse Gear Signal -Vehicle Speed SIgnal -E-brake Signal -OEM speaker amplifier -Speaker connections -Power/Ground connections -Illumination Power -Console USB port -AM/FM Radio I’ll update everyone when it comes in with regards to the install.

I would like to see this solution done aswell + what it takes to get internet running. I've seen some solutions but a lot of them make me cringe.
Hope it goes well! |

I picked it up for 700 CAD (it’s $539 USD IIRC) on eBay.

if it's not much to ask, can you try usb hub on your unit? because only one usb port is really a deal breaker for me, i want to connect my music library on a HD and also able to use CarPlay which require physical usb connection.

I think I may have a USB hub lying around; I can give it a shot once I install the headunit and I will post here.

Got a pic of it installed? The buttons and the price of the Kenwood aren't great but it does look nicer than most head units.

Hey Andrew! Just waiting for it to come in. If it’s on time, I’ll most likely do the install next weekend.
