Has anyone had any experience with an Alpine Headunit overheating? I’ve recently fitted an X803 and after around 30 minutes of use a patch appears on the headunit screen (attached). I’ve tried using the coolest setting on my dash vents but doesn’t seem to have any effect. I’m worried due to the...
Hi
I changed my head unit to a basic Kenwood CarPlay one and am disappointed by the dull screen. Am used to a lovely bright screen in our Golf.
(The touchscreen was broken down one side on the original head unit.)
I saw on FB marketplace someone with a T5 selling what looks like a tablet...
Anyone fitted a SPH-EVO950DAB? My OEM unit is starting to get really glitchy so maybe time for a change? This Pioneer ticks a lot of boxes, mainly that it won't look like a Tesla in the front as the unit looks similar size to the total size of the original unit corner to corner.
I've had...
Will a Pioneer avh-a3100dab fit in a T6, I have the basic DAB radio with SWC?
Has anyone installed one of these, if it does fit I take it that it will need a loom and adaptor facia?
Thanks.

Hi,
So I have for a very long time been thinking about replacing my Pioneer FB88DAB (which is an outstanding unit by the way) with an iPad Mini.
My reasons for wanting to do this are:
1) love google maps and Waze
2) Screen is brighter, I actually cant see the screen at all in the summer.
3)...
My original head unit is dying, and I wanted a quick, simple solution. I've had a pretty shitty time lately and just wanted a quick win.
I went to my a local car parts shop and spent a bit of time talking to a helpful staff member who ended up selling me a Kenwood dmx7522dabs and a kit that was...
I have a transporter T6 2017, screen and head unit have been on the way out for a while. A friend of mine just replaced his head unit in his amarok of the same age with a new unit from a company called Vhedia. His old head unit went the same way as mine. Vhedia seems like a really good...
For sale is a (virtually) brand new KENWOOD DMX920 XDS with CMOS-320 multi view camera.
The main unit was installed one week before I bought the van (last week of October) and the camera is uninstalled, still in box.
Both are surplus requirements as I already had my own set-up.
Also comes with...

Apologies is already covered, did a search but couldnt find anything.
I have fitted an aftermarket head unit to my T6.1.
This in turn stops the sos function working and caused a warning and light on the dash (i was made aware and told this can be coded out with Vagcom). I have a local garage...

Hi all,
I've got an android double din headunit that I purchased about 5 years ago to fit to a BMW 1 series but we got rid of the car and it was never fitted. New out the box.
I think it's a generic headunit in that it will fit any single din chassis but has a double din face. The screen...
Hello,
I hope someone somewhere can help me! I am very new to car maintenance and it seems I have inadvertently killed my new car.
We bought a 2016 T6 Caravelle a month or so ago. It had had a few modifications done to it, including a remap, a suspension upgrade, and an Alpine ILX-F903D head...
I found a Kenwood DMX8019DABS and got the required bits from @Absolut5 with top service. Posting here so you or anyone who knows can answer.
He warned the DIN cable would be tight to connect, but it looks like I’m going to damage the connector in the process. The DIN pin count is correct but...
