Head unit swap from WRX 2020

[Virgonaut]

Hey!
Did someone manage how to swap Android Auto/Apple Car Play head unit from WRX 2020?

I've seen @levorgt thread, but it seems he didn't finish/share fixing of some issues he faced.

The list was:
- mixed functions on steering wheel buttons
- volume knob not working (i bet related to the 1'st issue
- missing external HarmanKardon AMP as WRX does have one, and Levorg nas built-in AMP

I found this video

of polish guy who managed to do this and make it fully functional (you can enable translated subtitles in YT)

I wonder is this well known knowledge, and there is known procedure of fixing mentioned issues? Or do I need to reach the guy?

Regards.

i am looking for this for a while now. there is a post out there with a guidance and what u need to swap it. but only from wrx to wrx. i think the wiring for the levorg should be pretty much the same but finding a headunit is fairly difficult. at least for austria and germany. subaru doesnt sell them directly. i was in contact with them. but i am still looking for for it because i like the look of the oem hu much more than the androind versions out there. if u find something please let me know.

Yes, I found this some time ago, but I assumed there will be slight be differences, as there were some issues with button swaps on steering wheel. Looking into the post, it makes no sense in terms of costs...
