Why would that be a requirement. An iOS phone with a radio that supports Apple CarPlay should also work, right?

Or the car head unit itself could be running a version of Android and natively runs the app directly on the head unit, though I'm not sure now a days head unit makers would do that.

The latter... CarPlay and Android Auto both have the apps run/display on the headunit. Except in CarPlay, Apple doesn't allow any navigation apps except their Apple Maps, so if you want google maps or waze, you need to use an Android device.

Hi Danilo, I saw you reference this post in a recent thread and had a question that I figured I'd ask here:

What functionality do you lose when you take out the PCM unit? I though I'd read somewhere that you lose access to sports chrono without the PCM unit. So does that mean no more launch control? Is the row of sports/sport plus/suspension buttons below the deck functional? Can you still see current the tire pressure for all your tires in the dash via the wheel stock?

Thanks!

I did the install myself... takes time but if you have installed stereos before you should be ok... I hit a snag with volume - or lack of - where I had to call NAV-TV and turns out I needed to update firmware, which was really easy and fast, connecting the HUR to a windows machine... Bob at NAV-TV took the time to walk me through and help with other questions I had on the install... these guys are awesome! anyway, here are some pics... if you have questions just let me know... cheers
I am also looking for answer to this. I am looking to upgrade but I don't want to lose Sport Chrono functionality.

OP, Do you retain sport chrono if we replace PCM?

You lose the lap timer and the Nav computer when you get aftermarket head unit. The aftermarket head unit is not able to control those functions

Waze is also available on Apple phones.

Other than those, everything else still works? Like Sport Chrono, PASM ?

I don't have much use for the lap timer either, so it's good to hear that everything else works. Thanks for the info.

Can you give me an idea on how (where, what is needed) did you wire the rear cam all the way to the head unit? (Pics would help..)

Thank you so much

Did you keep steering wheel controls?

I'll of course let the OP confirm, however based on my research you can retain the wheel controls with some additional hardware, depending on the head unit you are going with. For example I'm will be using the Pioneer AVH-4200NEX, for that the following are required for steering wheel controls: PAC ControlPRO or the Axxess ASWC-1.

You need extra bit to keep steering wheel controls and they can be tricky to add and set up. I used the Axxis module on my Nismo Z and unless you are good with splicing and soldering don’t try it by yourself
