Frequently Asked Questions

Does my aftermarket head unit need a rear USB input for this adaptor to work?

Yes. The PC7-AUX-SB03 connects the factory USB socket wiring to the rear USB input port on the aftermarket head unit. If your chosen head unit does not have a rear USB input, the factory USB socket cannot be retained using this adaptor. Confirm your head unit's rear USB input availability before purchasing.

Is any cutting or splicing required?

No. The PC7-AUX-SB03 is a plug-and-play adaptor that connects to the factory USB wiring without cutting or modifying the factory harness.

Does this adaptor fit all Subaru Impreza variants?

The PC7-AUX-SB03 is specified for the Subaru Impreza GK/GT series (2016–2018). For other Subaru Impreza generations or variants, a different USB retention adaptor may be required — contact the F.A.E. team to confirm.

Will the factory USB port support both charging and data (CarPlay/Android Auto) after installation?

The retained factory USB socket's functionality will depend on the aftermarket head unit's rear USB input capabilities. Most modern aftermarket head units with rear USB inputs support both charging and data. Confirm with your chosen head unit's specifications.

Is this adaptor the same as the USB retention included in the HRNI002 Nissan kit?

No. The PC7-AUX-SB03 is Subaru Impreza-specific. The HRNI002 USB retention module is specific to the Nissan Navara NP300. Each USB retention adaptor is vehicle-specific.
