XTRONS for Fiat 500 (2007-2015) Touch Screen Radio, 7 Inch Android 14 Car Stereo for Fiat 500 Replacement Head Unit Built-in DSP Car Play Android Auto 4+64GB (Black)

This really updated the cars infotainment. It's really nice to get Android Auto and CarPlay in my 2012 Fiat 500 Abarth. It takes a few secs to connect, but not any longer than my Toyota Tacoma's factory radio and it's wireless, so I'm not fumbling around trying to plug it in. It looks OEM for sure. The sound on my 2012 Bose systems is GREATLY improved and the EQ makes a big difference.I installed the GPS antenna on top of the radio cage and it seems to be working fine and is invisible for the most part. The supplied adapters plug directly into the factory harness and the steering wheel controls work just as before. The only thing that doesn't have a home is the XM radio antenna. You have a white wire and a yellow wire - the white wire is for the AM/FM radio. Had to do a little research to find that!Everything is pretty instinctive except for 3 things.1. Time - the default region is 10hrs off. You'll have to go into the menu and set your time zone.2. Change Celsius to Farenheit - had to do a search for this on youtube, but if use keywords "Xtron Celsius to Farenheit," it gives a very simple explanation on what to do3. Flashing Odometer - this seems to happen to everyone. Again, this is an easy fix and can be found on youtube with key words "flashing odometer xtrons"My only criticism is the vent design. You will lose directionality and a little output, but even in the Texas spring it hasn't bothered me yet. I read a comment that you can use the OEM vents behind the unit, but I'm not sure ab out that and I'm not a fan of seening more clutter than needs to be there.

Just installed mine. Got it to work on my 2012 Fiat 500. The wiring harness is a lot to look at but once you go over each wire connection. It should work. This worked with my Fiat that has Bose speakers. After watching several YouTube videos, Just needed to connect the blue con wires together for the sound to work. Bluetooth connected both my daughters IPhone and my android. Was able to play music. Instruction manual was, not great. Otherwise, it works.

First of all, I was VERY skeptical buying this head unit due to the low price and the fact it is made (and shipped) from China.I have to say though, it has met my every expectation, and then some. I have a highly modified 2012 Fiat 500 Abarth and upgrading the stereo was never a priority for me, as I enjoyed the exhaust as my sound. Well, now I wanted to upgrade for the use of wireless Apple car play and navigation, and seamless voice commands through Siri for text messaging.This head unit is truly all in one and completely plug and play. No need to buy any adapters to make steering wheel controls work. This comes with a CANbus box that allows steering wheel controls to just work out of box. The previous review that mentioned the blinking odometer, yes, that happened to me too, but I was able to fix it by adjusting a setting on the head unit itself.When I first saw this head unit I thought “well how are you supposed to adjust the air vents”? Well, there is a little door on the top of the head unit (Nicely marked with 500) that opens and allows adjustment (see picture). This does not replace the OEM vents, it just fits flush over top of them. I wish I knew that as I had removed my air vents in anticipation for the head unit to arrive. Speaking of arrival, this is shipped via DHL from mainland China and they are very quick with shipping. There is a feature that tells you if you have your door or rear hatch open (see picture)The sound is great, better than stock. Most of the features like DVR and external keyboard I am likely never to use. I have not hooked up a back up camera yet, but that is on my “to do” list.For $289 this is an absolute steal. I will be updating this review in the future to report anything else that is of note.

I was very excited about getting car play into my vehicle. I did tons of research on the specific radio I wanted and landed on this one from Xtrons.I have been installing car audio equipment for 25+ years and am MECP certified. Suffice to say I know what I’m doing.The unit itself is like most other Android units but the trouble starts and ends with the canbus module. It just doesn’t work. The radio would turn on and off randomly while driving, steering wheel controls would work sometimes, and other times you had to push a button 10 times.I reached out to the seller and was told because of the Chinese new year, it would take 3/4 weeks for a replacement.I ended up ordering another unit only to find out that it had the exact same problem however the canbus wouldn’t even keep the radio on for 5 seconds.After several hours of messing around with it, I finally wired the accessory wire from the ignition switch to the radio so it would stop shutting off.While this fixed the issue of turning on and off, it did not resolve the issue of the steering wheel controls not working.I’m returning both units and will explore other options after wasting 8 hours of my life with it.Be warned!

Works perfect except the blinking odometer, interferes with a car system

I don't know why it won't let me give 5 stars but it's 5 stars from me. Car Toys wanted $1800 brought down to $1600 to put in a screen that wouldn't have been flush in my 2012 Gucci Fiat. This product was truly plug and play. I'm a 55 yr old Executive Assistant and I installed this myself. Watching a couple of YouTube videos gave me the confidence. I couldn't be happier with it!
