SYGAV Android Car Stereo for 2014-2017 Mitsubishi Lancer EVO X Head Unit with OEM Rockford Fosgate AMP Radio GPS Navigation

At first I wasn't going to give it a review I personally had a lot of complaints. But after tweaking some things and realizing this thing does actually have wireless Android auto I'm really happy with the purchase. Don't get me wrong theirs some gripes like how you don't control the factory sub like before you actually have to play with the equalizer and know what your doing instead of twisting a dial to turn the sub up or down. Or the fact all the usbs will not charge your phone at all. You can send data from your phone to the unit but it will not charge your phone period it won't lose charge but it doesn't gain anything either. Other then that it solves a very fundamental issue for me. 1st I drive an 08 which had no hands free system in it... and it's a 5 speed... so trying to talk on the phone if you had to was near impossible. 2nd the audio quality. This new unit sounds incredible I can hear every bit of the song the sub is perfectly balanced and not overpowering and thumps really hard when it's suppose to the equalizer does actaully work however as mentioned the dial to adjust the sub is just a placibo unless you get an aftermarket in which case who knows if it works but you don't need it if your an audiophile which if your purchasing this you probably are. 3rd navigation. When you use apple or Android the navigation on this unit is fanominal you still control Spotify while you drive.. for some reason does not give you directions on a turn by turn... but if you look past that small little detail which could just be a me problem the fact that it has it is awesome. And lastly number 4 on my list is a back up cam for those of us who struggle with depth perception. All in all not a bad way to spend money to modernize your evo or lancer very very easy to install lots of videos showing you what to do just wish there was a way to trouble shoot little issues with it better or contact a customer support if you needed it. But so far no issues out of the thing as far as it working

First off I am using a 5 channel amplifier with all new speakers and wiring. This head unit was incredibly easy to install, and the difference in ease of use alone is worth the switch. It adds to the spartan interior of the Evo X, and looks like it came from the factory instead of out of place. The only complaint I have is that I do have to manually connect the Bluetooth every time I restart the car, but that is really it.

The product looks amazing in the car works smoothly. It’s my first aftermarket radio I have ever bought. So I have the Rockford fosgate oem sound system in my car but for some reason when I use apple car play I don’t really get base from speakers or sub. When I have the regular radio playing music that’s where my sub comes to life but for some reason my audio is super loud even at volume 1. The fitment is not that great had to do some trimming on the air vents and even then it didn’t fit that good on it. I contacted the seller to see if there is something that I can do about the audio but they haven’t responded back and it’s been a week. I don’t know if any of the other people that have purchased is head unit has had similar issues with it and found a way to fix it. Everything is plugged in correctly I’ve even messed with the eq settings on the head unit to have more base but still nothing when I use apple car play.

So in October of 2019 I first installed the version 9 radio and it was absolutely amazing, I loved all the new features compared to the stock radio. The sound quality was definitely not as clear and loud but it was worth losing that to have this head units features. The other day a song started skipping so I turned off the unit and it never came back on. I was emailing back and fourth with customer support and tried everything and still it didn’t work (I have years of experience with automotive electrical/electronics) Out of impulse I just purchased a new unit (the version 10). I haven’t heard back from customer support about my original broken one and I’m assuming after getting nowhere that the old unit just fried out somehow (only after just shy of 2 years, not good). The new one came and the screen was stuck on the reverse camera and would not come off. After reading a few forums I learned it was the little red box with the wiring harness (it was super hot from running so long) so I just swapped it with the red box from my old unit and it works perfect. Love the new layout and software and it’s definitely ALOT louder than the version-9. I do love this radio, especially with the CarPlay feature. Just very disappointed that my old unit didn’t even make it to 2 years and the new one came with broken/malfunctioning parts. I just pray that this new one lasts longer than my version-9 one!! They are expensive and not always the greatest but so are Apple products and somehow we still stay brand loyal. Just wish they did right by their customers. I’d give it a 3/5 because it’s a real nice product AS AN UPGRADE, but it’s not a great product as far as equipment, materials and customer support. Hope This Helps!

Returning immediately. While ordering I didn't see an option for used, but I received a unit with someone's information already assigned and harness already used. The unit operated very slow. Conducted a factory reset to clear other person's information and try to speed it up. After doing so the only working option is BT. It don't come with carplay or android auto as advertised. Also no updates are available for this model unit so I couldn't download anything newer. Definitely not worth the money. Save it for an brand name.

I got the one for the Fosgate system, I paid the installer $200 and he had it done in 30 mins. The sound is so much louder and clearer than the stock fosgate headunit... It's obvious that the original fosgate headunit was not capable of driving the amp or speakers. Sounds so good. Android auto is great, I have it set up w/ Waze and Spotify.

I am changing my review back to 5 stars. My sound issue was corrected after contacting the seller. The informed me that the rockford fosgate system does not need all of the harnesses. See attached image. After removing the two harnesses, the rockford sound system came back to life. My only complaint now is coming through softly on the microphone. It sounds great at idle but my voice gets somewhat lost while driving. I will look into other microphones to see if they can fix it at all. Correction. The old head unit was swapped with the SYGAV head unit with very little issues, however I relied more on previously watched YouTube videos rather than the provided instructions. Everything works and looks great after being installed, however I am giving this 3 stars because the overall speaker volume is lower than I believe it should be. I would never take my original car stereo to max volume because it would be deafening. However with the SYGAV unit installed, I can take it to max volume and the sound system would barely be beating highway road noise. If I could find out whether something is incorrect or how to correct it to allow for a higher speaker output, I would gladly give this a 5 star rating.

I've used this headunit for nearly two months and most of the time it works perfectly fine, the sound quality does suffer immediately but you can offset that drop by adjusting the built-in equalizer, which works well enough. This unit allows you to easily program the steering wheel buttons to anything you want. There's a few built-in apps, but I haven't really delved into them since Android Auto is available and is what I exclusively use. However, on a daily basis this unit will act up, disconnect the bluetooth, or completely freeze. It's unbearable and the only reason I haven't swapped back to my stock radio is because of the Android Auto. Installation REQUIRES you to butcher your OEM vent housings so that they can sort of fit, and the final fitment is quite poor. The corners at the top poke ~2mm on both sides while the middle stays flush, you'd think putting some sort of spacer at the bottom would remedy this, but then the interior trim will not stay in place if you do so. The included microphone and GPS have the weakest double-sided tape that gave up within a week without touching it (surface was cleaned properly with alcohol). For $500, this seems like a pretty good deal, and if the aforementioned issues were not present it would be. But I cannot recommend buying this when Crutchfield offers kits around the same price, sometimes less.

Perfect item have had no issues with the item and mounted perfectly in my current Mitsubishi, contact team helped with all minors issues I had. Highly recommend!
