After having such a good experience with the Pioneer AVIC-D3 in my 350z, I decided to upgrade the head unit in my Honda Fit project to the Pioneer 6000-NEX.

The unit has the capability to be upgraded to Apple's Carplay once it becomes available (most likely later in the year) but has a full Apple Ipod integration and can play music as well through your Bluetooth connection.
What I ended up purchasing consisted of the following:
Pioneer 6000-NEX head unit
Metra Double-Din Kit
Metra 70-1729 wiring harness
Metra 40 HD-10 Honda specific Antenna adaptor

| Final installed pics with the home screen options |
 |
| Navigation screen |
 |
| AV options menu |
 |
| Full phone integration including Siri hands-free |
 |
| Dial screen with the phone integration |
 |
| The real reason why I wanted this unit, is the fact that it provides real-time traffic updates and reroutes |
 |
| It also has HD radio already installed in the unit without having to buy any adaptor |
 |
| Bluetooth audio allows you to stream your audio files but I am now just using a dedicated Ipod for everything since I have noticed it is a better quality audio |
 |
| Full Ipod integration including playlists, artist and album info |
 |
| This is where I ended up mounting the bluetooth wired mic, I will end up replacing this install for one that is more flush |
 |
| I ended up removing the OEM USB mount and instead snaked the Pioneer USB through that location. I also ended up mounting the Navigation Antenna so that it could be a cleaner overall install. |
