oh righty then, how do you get this onto the head unit?

The full developer page is here:

In a nutshell:

1. Enter developer mode and enable USB debugging on the HU.

2. Change the USB role of the head unit from 'Host' to 'Device'.

3. Connect a laptop to the front Android Auto/CarPlay Port using a USB A to A cable.

4. Download and run the One Click Root, and install Honda Hack if you would like to have more powerful features including:

Install apps without a laptop (apk's).
Bypass parking brake.
Force landscape mode so apps such as Spotify will display properly.
Enable write access to the external USB storage
Auto click the OK button at startup
Auto run app at startup

Thanks for the share jay.dee. I may have a pop at this. Be cool to get apps like Waze running in car play

Hello Jay

I tried sending you a message but not sure if it went through as I can't see it in my sent items

I'm new to the forum and wanted to ask if you have done the head unit hack and if it was successful does it work well and does all the functionality work as stated

Thank you
