Mazda Type-C Wireless Carplay Retrofit Kit, TK78-66-9U0C OEM Media Hub to MZD Connect System, Compatible with Mazda 2/3/6/CX3/CX5/CX9/MX5 2015-2020 (Only Supporting Wireless Carplay, NO Android Auto)

Relatively easy to install, and it’s been working great ever since. Wireless CarPlay works well, although it is a bit annoying to switch between phones when you switch drivers if you’re both in the car. You need the original driver to switch off their Bluetooth and wifi, and the second person has to manually connect with Bluetooth. There have been one or two dropouts, but overall it’s been very stable. Honestly I’m not sure how big of a convenience upgrade this really is over just plugging the phone in, but it’s been working, and I’m able to have my wireless charging mount plugged into the hub as well. Not sure what the 3/4 toggle is for under the sd card, but I haven’t touched it.

Worked out really well. I’m very happy with how this turned out. Working well now for 7 months

It was really easy to install! Worked very well! Sometimes it is not connecting and you have to restart the multimedia system. I am not sure if this is because of this module or phone's bluetooth! Overall, it is great and it works fine!

Bought the product on November 11th 2025, likely installed it same day or next. Had working CarPlay up until this week when the unit failed (January 6th 2026). I should’ve listened to the other reviews that said the unit works initially then fails because if I did I would’ve never bothered purchasing this. Stay far away from this scam.

Added USB C and wireless carplay, the two things I was really missing out on with my car. Installation was very easy and I have had no reliability problems.

The gadget works as intended in my 2017 CX-9 GT. It was plug and play. Build quality is excellent from my POV. The device came with the necessary cables and foam stickers with which to wrap them. The instructions are clear. Removing the trim in the car is a tricky and at times delicate affair, but there are plenty of tutorials online. It bears repeating: update your infotainment system firmware BEFORE you install the new hub! The built-in wireless module boots up instantly and CarPlay is running within 15 or so seconds of starting the vehicle. Could have gone for wired but I pike a clean center console. It’s been a game changer (but I can’t give this hub credit specifically for the ability to install CarPlay - credit is to Mazda). Where this shines is the builtin wireless card and the Type-C port. I haven’t tried that but understand if the wireless card is selected (the little switch hidden under the SD cover), then the Type-C port only serves to charge your device. For those who care: note this is a p3.1 hub. I went with this because, based on my research, although the following iteration (p3.2) includes wireless Android Auto (only wired on p3.1), it does this through some chip baked into the hub with Android OS on it — which boots on ignition and then emulates CarPlay. On the forums, people have described this software implementation as slow and unreliable. tl;dr if you are on the fence, don’t think just buy. The price is fair for this aftermarket replacement with extra bells and whistles.

Connection with wireless CarPlay is intermittent when temperatures are high (which they always are in the summer) but the longer I’ve had this installed the better it’s gotten. I’d rather have CarPlay 85% of the time than never.

Great when it actually works.... However, it fails to start half the time! I've had this module installed for 6-months now (December 2025 to May 2026), and its fails to start half the time, meaning I have to restart my engine to get it working again. This is a huge pain, as it takes a while bit to start-up, and you often just want to get on your way, and not wait sitting idle to see if its actually going to work. I had this installed in a 2016 Mazda CX-9 Grand Touring. I've elected to call this one a loss and purchase/install the Mazda Branded retro-fit which is roughly the same cost as this one, but has seamless integration, thus eliminating the issues I've described above. However, the OEM model requires a direct connection, rather than wireless. I'm willing to give up wireless connectivity for something that actually works on a consistent basis. I've now had the branded model installed for a while, and I'm no longer having the issues I have with this one.

Das Nachrüstkit hat meine Erwartungen voll erfüllt. Der Einbau war unkompliziert und gut machbar, da es sich um ein OEM-kompatibles Modul handelt, das perfekt mit dem Mazda MZD-Connect-System harmoniert. Alles passte ohne Basteln oder zusätzliche Anpassungen. Wireless CarPlay verbindet sich schnell und zuverlässig, ohne Verbindungsabbrüche oder Verzögerungen. Die Bedienung läuft flüssig, genauso wie bei einer ab Werk verbauten Lösung. Besonders angenehm ist, dass kein Kabel mehr nötig ist – ein echter Komfortgewinn im Alltag. Insgesamt eine sehr hochwertige Lösung mit tollem Funktionsumfang. Für alle Mazda-Fahrer, die Wireless CarPlay nachrüsten möchten, eine klare Kaufempfehlung und verdiente 5 Sterne! 🚗📱✨

Werkt prima! Inbouw in Mazda RX3 20218 met wireless CarPlay connection. Inbouw zelf gedaan met behulp YouTube. Aanrader.

Funciona a la perfección, la instalación puede ser algo complicada pero para eso hay que ver videos de Youtube ya que no vienen instrucciones. Llevo dos semanas usándolo, la calidad del audio es mejor que antes, y la calidad en las llamadas también mejora muchisimo. Con el puerto usb c se carga muy rápido. Aun no he intentado usar el modo carplay por cable, ni el android auto, pero por lo pronto todo funciona muy bien, desde que prendo el carro en maximo 10 segundos se abre solo el carplay

Funciona muy bien
