I remember putting one of those in my old Jetta. Thing was a piece of crap. Slow UI, programmed for Japanese radio stations. Looked much better than the stock head unit though. Its saving grace was Bluetooth streaming.
- jhallenworld 7y agoI think they are improving over time. The one I have from a few years ago has a fast GUI, but admittedly has a few annoyances: The FM radio overloads when I drive near a transmitting tower (the stock radio and an aftermarket Kenwood I have in another car don't have this problem). It's nice that it integrates with the car's computer, but it could be better. When I back up it switches to back-up cam mode, which turns off the radio or anything else you're doing. This has the side effect that I try to rush through the back-up manoeuver to get the radio back. I'm tempted to upgrade to a more recent one to see if these things have improved. An upgrade from one aftermarket radio to another is pretty easy, because the wiring is all done. Yeah, I did this upgrade in the first place just to add bluetooth and figured I give the Android radio a try.
