I remember seeing a thread where PDF files with instructions for hardware installation for each car model were located, but can't seem to find one now.
Or it was on HiDrive, which is dead now.

Can someone point me to where I can find all those PDF files for different Mazda models?

Are the made in China hubs definitely not going to work? Or is it just a genuine issue ?
For example on Ebay there is this one TK78-66-9U0C for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto Retrofit Kit for Mazda 00008FZ34 | eBay for only $176
But there is also the Made in Japan version: Genuine Mazda 2 3 6 CX3 CX5 CX8 CX9 Apple Carplay Android Auto Retrofit Kit | eBay For $316 !

Please advise if you know, I dont really wanna spend over $300bucks if i dont have to

Also If anyone is interested I just called Mazda Australia and they quoted me:
TK78-66-9U0E - AUX Hub x1: $244.65
C294-V6-605 - Carplay / Android Auto Harness $123.82
 
Hi,
the price about 370 AU-$ sounds good for me, for OEM-Mazda-Parts, it is about 240 € here in Germany. The Ebay-product is a china-replica with a maybe 50:50 chance work / will not work.

Bye

I just bought the Mazda Apple Carplay and Android AA USB Retrofit Kit TK78 66 9U0C C922 V6 605A shipped from China installed and worked fine. Now awaiting the latest 74.00.311 4A N or higher 74.00.324 for better panel response.

After installed 74.00.311 4A N, everything look okay accept AA no response to voice command. Anyone facing similar problem as if the the MIC was muted waiting for voice command.
 
Directly up to/including 70.00.100. Then to latest 70.00.367. But officially you should install .100 in between. Alternative: Install FW 59 in between and skip .100. Then install .367.
Hey, just replying on your post so that I can get access to send private messages. Cheers. Let me know if you have the link for the update for North American users
Thanks!
 
I am sorting through the replies, without success. After all firmware update to the latest and hardware upgrade, is the Android Auto connection still wired? Is wireless connection possible on these old Mazda 3 models 2014-2018? Thanks
