The IDoing head unit is a plug and play solution that features a 9" display. It is a great way to add Apple CarPlay or Android Auto to the Subaru Outback. Apple Carplay and Android Auto are also now made wireless! This is the only unit on the market currently that will include everything necessary for the installation (it even includes necessary tools)! 

All OEM features are retained such as the steering wheel controls and backup camera. 

The head unit comes with the Google Play Store pre-downloaded so apps like YouTube, Clash of Clans, Amazon Prime Video are available to be played/watched on the head unit.

There are tons of audio settings to mess around with and the head unit is compatible with aftermarket subwoofers, speakers, amplifiers, etc. An IDoing head unit is recommended for all Subaru's with aftermarket audio upgrades because the OEM radio is not built to handle the improved performance. You will really be able to notice the difference in audio quality after installing the head unit, it is the immediate response we receive from our hundreds of satisfied customers.

IDoing offers a two year warranty for this head unit and is trusted by thousands of customers! This is truly the best head unit available!

IDoing Head Unit

Highly recommended!! The head unit was a little difficult to push in but other then that it wasn't a bad install. Finally have apple car play wireless or plug-in. Audio sound dose improve with this head unit.

Quality look

Straight forward install screen resolution and interface is amazing only problem was fixing the CAN buss system and tuning the speakers to get them to work properly also if you have a sub setup the new display only has a mono rca output so you'll most likely neen a male to dual female rca splitter

Awesome upgrade !

I installed this IDOING head unit a little over 1 year ago on my 2018 STI with the Harmon kardon sound system and it gave the interior a much needed update with the Apple CarPlay. It had been great and gave me 0 issues. Install was super easy I highly recommend this head unit

Great Replacement for Your Subaru

This is my second iDoing headunit that I have purchased from WRXDaily. I bought one for my ‘12 WRX hatch a few years ago and now I just installed another one in my ‘15 FXT w/ HK. Beware the videos you find on YouTube as they may not be the exact radio. I thought I needed the adapter box featured in a video to get HK to work properly in my car but all I needed to do was switch the external switch on the back of the unit from aux to amp. All my speakers worked after that. As others stated you will not need all the cables that your OEM radio uses. I also experienced having to push a good amount to get it to fit snuggly. Despite the small things this unit is great! It modernizes the interior and gives you wireless CarPlay/AndroidAuto!

Get ready for a fight

Let me start off by saying I really love this new unit now, but after removing it and installing the new unit I was ready to throw them both in my apt dumpster. The hardest part was removing my old original unit. Once I figured out the wiring diagram for the new one I was good to go. You will need to pair this unit to your smart phone or device through BT and WiFi. I was told by a representative here that I didn’t need to do both but my phone says otherwise. Great customer service y'all provide!

Awesome Head Unit

2016 WTX - Fits well, looks great and tons of features. Wireless CarPlay is incredible. All steering wheel functions retained and the sound is impressive. Made the stock speakers sound way better but I also replaced all speakers shortly after - Polk DBs in the doors and pioneers in the dash corners - sound quality is perfect

Idoing head unit

The features are great for the most part. Can’t use CarPlay and answer the phone at the same time. I guess they both share Bluetooth and you can only answer the phone when connected to the android system. It did make the stock speakers sound much better. Only other complaint is the fitment. Plenty of people have complained about it, yet they choose not to fix it. You will either have a big gap at the bottom or a big gap at the top. It’s ridiculous with the amount of complaints at this points.

**EDIT**
After my review the company reached out directly. It turns out you just need a little more ‘umph’ pressure on the sides to force the unit to seat. It’s absolutely perfect now. There’s still the Bluetooth connection issue for voice calls when using CarPlay, but otherwise it’s fantastic.

Bananas Easy on a 2014 XV Crosstrek

2014 XV Crosstrek - I was stunned at how simple it was to swap out the old head unit. I have zero experience in vehicle stereo interfaces. The instructions were clear enough for me to understand what direction I needed to head. Total project time was about 3 hours, going slow. The harness adapter was plug and play, there is LITERALLY no way to screw it up. Well, you could, if you really tried. Looks super clean! Wife is happy to have CarPlay for travel. Namaste. Kumbaya. Peace among men. Everybody's happy. If you're on the fence, I promise you will be pleased with this unit. +Bonus: Customer Support was on it. Super easy going and helpful on questions.

Idoing head unit

I absolutely love it!!! My Subs are so much louder and the sound shaping is so much clearer and accurate. It was definitely worth the money.

Awesome Product!

I am beyond thrilled with this head unit! I installed it in my 2011 WRX and it instantly made the car feel brand new. I went from the basic stock radio to this. I really love how it comes with the whole updated trim piece to allow for a bigger screen while making it look OEM. I thought the plastic looked kind of cheap so I wrapped it in alcantara and it came out great. I am by no means an electronics or audio expert and the instructions and provided wiring harness made it simple. If I can do it, so can you.

Great Radio!!

Radio sounds great (I had already upgraded all the speakers). Love the wireless Android Auto. With the help of YouTube videos, I was able to get all the functions working as they should. These units are very customizable. Would buy one again.

Idoing works good

If you need to replace the manufacturer device this one is a good idea, I have 4 with this and the screen is big, I can change everything and my car is a WRX 2020 easy to install the only thing are the cables are 2.5 and sometimes are slow to charge the phone.

Subaru Forester 2018

After a lot of research and local audio stores trying to push their very expensive “certified” head unit, I took a chance with this iDoing. The device arrived as expected and I brought it to a local audio shop who charged me a fair price for a quick and professional installation under 2 hours. The device works and looks perfectly as if it was original with the car. Back camera works as expected. Bluetooth works well. There are usb cables available through the glove comportment that I still need to try.

Great head unit, easy install!

This head unit is incredibly functional. It comes equipped with everything including apple carplay, maps, youtube, even an app store. The installation was extremely straightforward. The only difficult part was putting it back in - I could not get mine to budge so it sticks out a bit. The only bad thing I could say is that occasionally, when using bluetooth, the carplay disconnects and reconnects itself. I noticed it only happens in certain places though. I don’t get the issue when plugging my phone in directly. It also made my speakers sound way better as it comes with a better EQ to tweak the settings. It comes with all harnesses and even a dash tool to remove it. I would highly recommend getting this head unit.

Huge upgrade from stock or older head unit.

Definitely sounds and looks great. Not everything works 100%. I was able to work around most issues and get a majority of the options to work. Modern android auto works great and plays apps via Bluetooth with nav. Just like my 2023 tundra.

Installed in a 2015 Outback 8 Months Ago Honest Review

I’ve been running the Idoing 128GB head unit in my 2015 Subaru Outback, and I can confidently say this is the single best entertainment upgrade you can make to your Subaru.

✅ Plug-and-Play Simplicity

Install was super straightforward — truly plug and play, no rewiring or splicing needed. Everything connected as advertised, and it powered on without any hassle.

🎤 Pro Tip: Use the Included External Mic

Make sure you install the external mic that comes with the unit. The built-in mic doesn’t cut it — especially here in the Midwest where people had a hard time understanding me until I swapped it out. After installing the external mic, call quality improved drastically.

🌡️ Tested in Extreme Weather

I live in the Midwest, and this thing has handled everything from 101°F summer heat to -47°F winter mornings without a single hiccup. No lag, no freezing, no restarts — it just works.

🎶 Overall Experience

Touchscreen is fast and responsive, Apple CarPlay and Bluetooth run smoothly, and the screen resolution is super clear. I can stream, navigate, and customize everything easily — it really modernized the entire feel of my car.

⸻

💯 Final Verdict:

If you drive a Subaru and want to modernize your dashboard with a head unit that’s reliable, feature-packed, and affordable — this is the one. Highly recommend.
