SKU CH-P73D-MBC6X

  • Product typeDigital Media Receiver
  • 8 inch touchscreen fits tight dash spaces
  • modular chassis separates display from main unit for flexible mounting
  • Apple CarPlay and Android Auto mirror smartphone apps on screen
  • Amazon Alexa voice control via Vozsis app when paired
  • HD Radio plus SiriusXM Ready for varied listening options

Modular 6.8 inch Touchscreen

The Pioneer receiver separates its 6.8 inch LCD touchscreen from the main sub-chassis so the display can mount in shallow dash openings while the CPU, tuner, amplifier and connections reside elsewhere. This modular design fits newer vehicles where depth behind the panel is limited and traditional single- or double-DIN units cannot be installed.

Smartphone Integration and Radio

Apple CarPlay and Android Auto provide wired smartphone mirroring for navigation, messaging and music apps. Amazon Alexa voice control becomes available when the Pioneer Vozsis and Weblink apps are paired with the receiver. HD Radio, SiriusXM readiness, Spotify and Pandora compatibility, plus selectable parking-assist guidelines round out the media and safety features.

Upgrade Path and Limits

This unit replaces factory stereos that lack smartphone projection or voice assistants and cannot accept a full-depth aftermarket deck. The separate sub-chassis allows installation where a one-piece receiver would not fit. Buyers who need wireless CarPlay or Android Auto, or who require a built-in optical drive, should consider other models. The modular approach does not add extra amplifier channels beyond the internal amp.

Questions about this item

How is the modular sub-chassis installed when dash depth is limited?

The display and sub-chassis are physically separated so the sub-chassis can be mounted in a different location or orientation behind the dash. Remote mounting may need the RD-RGB150A or CD-RGB150E accessory sold separately.

What replaceable accessories might be needed later for the modular installation?

The RD-RGB150A or CD-RGB150E extension cables are required if the sub-chassis is installed remotely from the 6.8 inch display. These are sold separately.

What limits the sub-chassis placement during sustained use?

The length of the RD-RGB150A or CD-RGB150E extension cable sets the maximum distance between the display and sub-chassis, which determines where the sub-chassis can be mounted.
