    And to explain what I'd like to do; I'd like to put a double DIN unit with Android Auto, voice control, and have full steering wheel controls. Looks like there will be some custom wiring need to be done. I'm usually a DIY person, but I don't have patience to read wiring diagrams.

    I just put on my 2014 and its so easy just plug and play.I also was worried about cutting wire but if you open the stereo and just count the pin and plug it .

    If it doesn't have jbl you can buy an adapter harness which makes it real easy to upgrade the head unit. you still got to solder a handful of wires, but you can do most of that in the house and then just plug it in the car. dash comes apart easy too. crutchfield.com is a great source for what you'd need to do it.

    If you buy from crutchfield they will include instructions with your purchase. and they usually throw in the harness if you buy a headunit from them. and there are several threads on this site and youtube.
