G'day, newer lancer owner from nsw aus here.
Purchased my 2017 Black Edition cf lancer towards the end of last year, it's my first car beyond using my parents for as long as i could and couldn't be happier reliable and runs pretty well on fuel front.

I mostly joined these forums for advice on some interior modifications like the sound system and the centre console. Then odd other small things, none of the performance side. It is the economical type of car after all. Much better ways to spend money.

Anyway, I would be looking at installing an aftermarket media console running android auto that hopefully still hooks up to my reverse camera and steering wheel inputs.
Just not sure where to start looking for them, or anything in general. I'm admittedly pretty clueless on all this front.

Anyway, nice to meet you guys I'll most likely poke around here. See whats around, only community that seemed active I could find.

Hi, nice first car.

There are loads of audio options for these cars and the costs for the Android systems keep on falling.

Yeah, that's pretty much my only complaint about the car in the end, easily fixed too. Having all the extra features will be nice once I work out what one I need and the installation aha.

That’s right, I’ve currently got the kenwood dmx7017bts, loving it. All though my speakers start to shorten out at louder volumes now, time for an amp xD

I'll have to look into it, going to get that going then the sound system, probably some led lights and I'll be a happy camper once its all sorted out.

I've got a 10" android HU :D

I'd like to lower mine, but at this point thats when it needs new shocks/springs.

I'm back around, got the ralliart aha, love it too.
A family member needed a new car so I sold the normal lancer for a decent price and found a really well kept 2015 ralliart.
Honestly couldn't be happier with it.
Its not the evo but its good enough for me. Not completely gutless too.
