Thanks for the video. Go get gas!
Very great setup. I’ve had most of the aftermarket kits and this one seems to be the one to have. I currently have the idatalink cam1 setup with kenwood hu.

Does the wireless music from phone play just as loud as the radio or is it at lower decibel level?
Does the color match the center console. It looks like it does but the cam1 kit does not match very well so I painted to match the silver interior. That’s why I ask.
Thanks again,

The audio output has been consistent switching from radio to car play. No need to adjust volume with this unit. Color wise it’s just like the center console which is a slightly darker shade than the bezel for RPM/MPH.

I’m quite positive you could sale the hu you own now and wouldn’t have to pay more than $200 out of pocket for this guy here.

This unit rocks. I'd rather listen to my Corsa Extreme though lol.

I’m pretty sure this is what us 5th gen folks have been wanting. It’s currently out of stock. The Camaro I have now is only driven occasionally in the summer so for me it’ll be awhile. But for those of us that enjoy modern tech w/o knobs then it’ll stay in high demand. It’s clean looking and seems highly functional.

Corsa rocks.
I like having dual channels; NPP and music. But when I get into it I cannot hear my music. As someone has previously said, I didn’t buy mine for the stereo but I sure enjoy having it at times.

No doubt. I guess my audio days are behind me. I mostly listen to sports radio shows now. But on the plus side of that, the money I save not changing the radio goes into more go fast parts lol.

This does look interesting. Where was it like 2 months ago? Lol.

Yeah I hear you I didn’t add subs or anything. I just wanted something a bit more modern than the CD player my 2011 had. Nothing beats a good exhaust note for sure I’m with you on that. I have a solo performance catback and currently in the process of doing a supercharger build (LSA). I bought some 850cc injectors for the blower so I hope to sale the Zl1 injectors as well as my SS injectors.

It’s been around but not much press about it I would say. The majority still seem to not know about it as of now so I shared.

Nice, solo is quality stuff too. Good luck with your build too. Let us know when shes done.

do you have a photo of the mic? how big is it? also, when you installed it, does it have built in GPS? I see there is a antenna, but if using carplay or android auto, i am guessing it would not be needed.

Sorry for the late reply. It has built in gps but you have CarPlay as well. The mic is about the size of a quarter.
