I did it all myself and as it was a bit of a pain and not much room is amazing, also if the company isnt to sure on how to fit it I wouldnt let them do it as it needs a bit of knowledge and also some special bits and bobs to make everything work as it should, for example the reversing camera adaptor as the Alpine ISO block needs some extra adaptors mine is a July 22 and everything works as it should with custom USB sockets to replace the factory ones, I asked a company to help me and they said they fitted loads but lies.
Shame alpine put a huge black bevel around the screen. I’m sure the next generation will have less bevel but prefer the size of the 9 as it doesn’t over hang the vents
Really tempted.
I hear mixed opinions of whether or not id be able, got t6.1 but with upgraded discover navigation with assisted parking / driving etc

The alpine kit does t work as it will stop the SOS function you need the kit from planet Ice as they supply everything you need you will also need to adapt the USB and then everything will work the reversing camera needs a special cable for it to work and also the 11” is perfect as it fits in the gap of the t6’1 great the t6 suits a 9” more as it’s got two air vents. I can guarantee it all works fine done properly
We install the Halo 905 mostly to T6.1s as we get the screen to sit really nice.
We have supply of the brand new Alpine interface which now retains the original mic, you still need a connects 2 sos retention, plus the facia, aerial adapters
Halo 905/11 need alpine adapter for reverse cam input , plus a cam adapter for the qualdock plug

I'd heard about the difficulties installing this head unit in T6.1's so decided to drive a couple of hours to Absolut5 who installed my Halo 11. I absolutely love it the screen is lovely and clear and the sound is way better, in the spirit of transparency, I also had their signature audio upgrade at the same time so you would expect it to be better but I'm very pleased with the result. I'd initially asked for the Halo 9 as I thought the 11 would be too big, but when I saw them side by side at the Alpine stand at the Caravan & Camper show I decided the 11 would be just fine and as the Picture above shows it doesn't cover the vents in a T6.1 if fitted correctly. I had the install done 3 months ago and it's not given me any issues and Carplay connects first time regardless of whether I connect via USB or Wirelessly.
What was your original head unit? Do you have the assisted drive / 6 parking sensors etc?
No I had the basic head unit. Definitely worth speaking to Absolut5 who can give the pro's & con's
Might be wrong (I literally have no idea) I keep reading it wont work with my assisted driving (ACC?), Parking sensors etc?
Looking for a professional installer not DIY.
Yes your ACC and parking sensors will work
I got halo 11 for my t6.1 and I put amazon fire stick on it.
Last week I got installed the DC-DC charger and since then, once I removed the key from the 'ignition' the unit gets turn off. Before the DC-DC charger was taking like a minut or more to turn off.
My question. Does anyone uses amazon fire stick to watch series/movies in the halo? do you need to have the key and turn on the van to watch it?

You can watch films on the unit and it has output for an external monitor too
What’s the over all opinion on it? Worth is over the Vw app connect unit?
