Can you go through a rough terrain in +R mode and let me know how well the magnet is? lol. That is the most stock looking mount I've seen if anything.
I had this in my Si. the magnet was surprisingly strong. never budged

But I would have to attach a metal plate behind my phone, right? It would be kinda annoying to remove the plate every night I put my phone on the wireless stand.

You can do both, swap out the included mount for a Pitaka magnetic mount and you can wirelessly charge as well
similar question, can you magnetically mount it without attaching a metal plate to the back of your phone?

Looks like pitaka make a special case with magnets arranged in a big circle to snap onto their mount but also still let you use wireless charging.

You can use their Pitaka case which has magnets placed in a circle so you can magnetically mount and wirelessly charge at the same time

I ordered this from Amazon US and only when i got it delivered and unboxed did I realize it only fits left-hand drive cars! :doh:
Contact the company, maybe they made some available. Most likely they have a mirrored mold

I swapped out the climate controls to the 2016 version. I didn't like the having to go to the screen which was slower than I'm used to. With the knobs I can have instant response, even in reverse! Very happy I made the change.

Absolutely ZERO changes are needed.....the exact same harness connectors.....plug and play literally. The worst situation is getting in the car now that it's hot as hell and having to wait while everything is booting up right after starting it up. It was worse for me when first starting the car in my driveway and then putting it in reverse to back out.....added even more time before being able to adjust the settings due to the backup camera. The only thing some owners may take as a negative is the lack of separate temperature adjustability for the driver and passenger side. That wasn't an issue for me! I bought the used climate control module on Ebay for $40.00 including shipping. It literally just snaps right in after removing the 2 pieces of trim beside the module.

If you press unlock on your key fob and then press it a second time and hold it. All the windows will roll down to.let that heat out before you get in car. I do it like when im 100 feet away walking toward it. It should help

That is an awesome tip, thanks for your comment!! I just wanted a way to adjust everything faster and easier! Here is a couple of pictures of the climate control before I installed it. They one picture has the part number on it for anyone who wants to get one for their car.
