Our take on the 2015-2018 Acura TLX Hamilton Upgrade Kit for CarPlay and Android Auto

The Hamilton Upgrade Kit adds wireless and wired CarPlay and Android Auto to a 2015-2018 Acura TLX while keeping the factory screen, radio, CD player and rotary knob. It installs behind the factory radio and switches back to the Acura interface with a long press of the back or voice button. It suits TLX owners who want modern phone mirroring without replacing the head unit or losing ELS audio, the backup camera, parking sensors or AcuraWatch features. That makes it a less invasive option than a full aftermarket head unit swap, which typically sacrifices factory integration.

About the 2015-2018 Acura TLX Hamilton Upgrade Kit for CarPlay and Android Auto

This upgrade kit adds wireless and wired CarPlay and Android Auto to the original screen of a 2015-2018 Acura TLX. It installs just behind the factory radio.

The factory XM, FM and AM radio and the original CD player keep working, and so does the original rotary control knob. Factory audio quality is unchanged, including premium systems like ELS Studio Premium Audio. The factory backup camera and parking sensors (if equipped) are preserved. So are factory safety features and upgrades such as AcuraWatch lane assist and blind spot warning. Calls use the original microphone.

To switch between the Hamilton interface and the original Acura interface, long-hold the back button on the center panel or the voice speech button on the steering wheel. The kit is designed for DIY installation, and an installation guide is available on YouTube. It has a 3-year warranty.
