Hello fellow Mazda owners
First time poster.

I own an '09 CX-9 and I'm looking for a way to upgrade the stereo to allow for an Android device (pixel 2 and 4) to play music and possibly take phone calls etc.

I have an aux port that I used to use which wasn't great but I no longer have 3.5mm jacks with the newer phones.

Any help much appreciated, thank you!

 

I use this with my Samsung Galaxy Note.

No help?

 

I use this little device. Works perfect with my phone!

I have upgraded the radio on both the CX-9 I have owned. Metra dash kit 99-7516B

PAC also makes a version that allows the clock and top display settings to be changed.

If your car has no OEM amplifier (Bose), you do not wish to retain steering wheel controls, and is not NAV equipped, the cheap harness can work.
