aftermarket head unit

Hi everyone, I’m selling a used but in epic condition Alpine ILX-F115D Halo 11 Apple CarPlay Android Auto DAB Bluetooth 11" Car Stereo I’ve Had this in my van for 6 months. As I’ve installed rear TV and can use CarPlay I don’t really need such a big screen. Paid just over £1150 for it...

How about a different T6.1 head unit upgrade ? The most popular is the Alpine Halo, which we still install regularly, but this time it’s a Kenwood DNR992RVS. Customer spends a lot of time abroad so wanted a built in sat nav, this has the superb 10.1” HD screen, wireless CarPlay, android auto...

Hi Guys, Has anyone had one of the radio's from Pluscenter in Manchester fitted to their van? Pluscenter can be found here: #1 Android Car Stereos in UK Pluscenter | Free Next Day Delivery. The cost of a unit is £200 and looking at independant reviews there are the mixed views on the company and...

So, in case someone wonders, I think I got why the Kenwood DNR (I think it might be the whole series) doesn't connect to MFS and the parking sensors. Probably didn't look far enough in the first place, and back in the days when I visited a shop here in the city I shouldn't have gotten a radio...

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.

Hello, I am installing a new headunit Alpine LX-f115d and I want to retein the SOS e-call. I have ordered the retention kit (it is out of stock for the moment) However I was wondering once the kit arrives, I would to know where it needs to be installed. As I am removing the dash panels...

I’m looking for an Alpine F905 if anyone’s bought one and having second thoughts

Greetings All, I'm after a bit of help with a standard VW head unit in my T6 and its connection to a bluetooth device. I have purchased the unit below which is a simple 9 inch screen that allows CarPlay etc. Appreciate its cheap (I didn't pay the Amazon price) and cheerful but I simply can't...

Seen these and they look ok. I’m wondering if anyone has one and if they are easy to fit and any good. I’m looking to upgrade but don’t want to spend £1k + on an alpine or Kenwood. I would get the dab and reversing camera add ons...

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)...

Audio Question for the hive mind! I have the ‘crackling’ issue when using Apple Carplay. The software build is current, and the SOS unit has just been replaced. (It solved the WeConnect/Mic problems.) Searching through various forums doesn’t give me much hope that a solution is available via VW...

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...
