Very satisfied.
The AVIC-W8600NEX was a major upgrade to my stock stereo (CM695UL) Clarion model PF-3678. The stock speakers’ sound quality has improved greatly (more powerful, crisp, clear). The integrated GPS/NAV system is accurate and informative. Bluetooth and WiFi connectivity is seamless.
Wide array of options for AV inputs: HDMI, USB, AUX, RCA.
Touch screen is responsive and does not require much pressure.
User interface is very customizable.
Stock Stereo Removal Tips: Watch video from “AutoHarnessHouse”. Use a flexible extension bit holder with universal joint to remove rear screws to avoid having to remove panel. Do not forget to release AC controls mechanical linkage temperature cord from lever.
Brackets: I used Scosche SU2031B.
I was unable to install stereo flush because it would interfere when opening face to insert DVD. Finding the right bracket setting was certainly a challenge and a headache.
Harness: I bought harness pre-wired. Literally plug ‘n play, no surprises. Make sure you connect rear camera to brown connector. Ensure you follow wiring diagram provided by iDatalink. Part #:
iDatalink Maestro RR Interface Module
iDatalink HRN-HRR-SU2
iDatalink ACC-HU-PIO1
USB: I bought the USB connector from “AutoHarnessHouse”. Works perfectly. If you have a dual USB under your armrest, it will not work. You need to replace with Subaru Part#: 86257AL210.
Antenna Connector: Metra 40-LX11 Antenna Adapter
Microphone: Stock microphone will not work. I fished the cable through the roof with a wire and then ran down passenger pillar. Takes patience but doable. Added noise insulating foam material around mic pocket.
Important: Avoid pinching AC control cord. Do not jam harness down. Carefully distribute.

Well built product
I haven’t fully installed it however when I installed it while I was in the front seat of my truck just to see the quality of the video it is amazing hands down one of the best rear view cameras I’ve installed and for the price point it can’t be matched. Nvx has some of the best quality when it comes to their products.

Overpriced
This thing is a few years old. It does have carplay which is nice. Sound quality is excellent which is the point. I like that it has wireless carplay. The nav is not great. Have to stop to find address with a very unfriendly interface. I just use maps on my phone. It does not ever autoplay music which is a huge fail. The factory mopar stuff always autoplays. When it does not auto connect or drops, have to stop to reconnect. Why can’t it just auto connect on its own??? If I click to connect and it is greyed out, I already looked away from the road so just connect, stupidest thing I have ever seen. Not worth paying for built in Nav. Wireless carplay is the best and will never buy anything without it again

Great backup camera
I would say it gets the job done. It comes on when you put it in reverse and functions as it should. Has a clear, colored picture to see whatever is behind your vehicle. The bracket is a little big for my truck bumper and can’t get the bottom screws in but that’s not an issue. The right side bar light worked for a bit but not anymore. I first hooked it up to my reverse light but I, for some reason, did not get 12volts to that light so the camera wouldn’t come on. The frame itself is very durable, it’s not plastic.

License plate backup camera
I'm extremely in love with my backup camera. I drive a 05 Hyundai Sonata v6 and I can't wait to install this upgrade.

Seems to be built well
Camera has good images and seems to work fine
My only complaint is that the cable they send is to short for a crew cab long bed pickup so if you have anything other then a car plan on ordering a extension cable

Nice backup camera
This backup camera came with the Kenwood double din I purchased. I haven’t installed it yet but what I like about it so far is that license plate frame is this solid metal and not plastic

Super clear image
Was Leary about getting the license plate frame camera as some reviews were not that great. But I was proved wrong super clear image day or night. Only con would be where the wire for the camera is it required me to cut a notch out of my license plate to allow it to fit but not a big deal can’t see it with the frame installed

Great backup camera
Everything works great with the backup camera. The only issue I have with it is it blocks the hatch open button some.

Back up camera
Would have been nice to know upfront that the OEM back up camera would not operate with the alpine deck. It caused a lot of extra time and frustration in the shop where I had it installed. Which inturn cost me more money. So I appreciate the fact that you gave me a free backup camera but, you could have said that the new backup camera must be used with new deck. It would have saved me some money and the installers some frustration. Just sayin.

Great for a vehicle that didn’t come equipped with a camera. Sleek design of the frame makes the camera blend in really well. Installation is easy and straight forward.
