I wish I could post a picture of what I’m talking about but I’m being as descriptive as I can.
Has anyone tried doing this? If so, what did you do to make the radio fully would minus the backup camera?
Thought of trying it a few times.
I wouldn't "swap" radios as much as purchase a brand new stereo with touch screen, and install it myself. I wouldn't go to the dealers. But a brand new stereo will be easier to sync to your phone anyways, Apple, Google, whatever. Bluetooth should be universal through and through.
I was thinking of upgrading my 2014 Mirage's base stereo, no screen except has a pixely orange screen that looks like it's from the 1980s IBM clone desktop computers with 1 colour, and 1 game chess. Anyways you had the same one obviously.
I would buy a brand new part to save headaches and has everything to go with the cables. Try that mitsubishinow.com part site, people on here have used it, they have bumpers, everything. I wonder about the colour matching and year, but who knows. The Mirage has had many colours and some discontinued, and I never bought a paint stick. I should've.
For me, just having the USB drive in every Mirage makes my stereo experience a huge upgrade. From 2 tapes in my car to every itunes song and every cd ripped, making thousands of songs available to play.
Before 2014 I had 2 tapes in my car, weezer's blue album, and the beach boys greatest hits tape my friend found at the auto wreckers back in 2010 or so.
