I'd like to see this available in a double-DIN sized unit that could be fitted in any car. Instead of it only being available in 2014+ cars.

- frik 13y agoSadly, this standard that was once common, is going away. Inbuilt car audio, navigation and entertainment systems age very badly. Seeing a car with a CD or even a cassette drive feels very dated. (the iOS Carplay photos feature a slot CD drive, very old-school for Apple the re-inventor of the mp3 player - the iPod)
- jamesjguthrie 13y agoIt's only 'going away' in regards to new car models. There's many millions of second hand cars on the roads all over the world that could facitate an aftermarket double-DIN unit.

There are Chinese companies selling Android decks on eBay that fit into nearly every odd-sized car stereo opening out there, complete with plug-and-play wiring harnesses and steering-wheel control integration. Otherwise, my newest car is seven years old, so maybe I'll get CarPlay around 2022.
