aftermarket head unit

Hi all, looking at replacing my clarion touchscreen and wanted peoples views. Most reviews I’ve looked at say the Alpine Halo9 but others say some kenwood. Any others and which is best with regards to value for money?

Hello, I have just bought a 2015 transporter startline that has had a custom crew cab conversion. The van does not come with parking sensors front or back. I am wishing to install rear sensors and a rear camera to the van. What are my best options? I have been told to go with the Pioneer...

Hi I am increasing frustrated by the poor sound quality of my Discover Media satellite navigation system in the Caravelle and I was wondering about upgrade options for a fully functioning HU that will run all the VW functions. Apart from the above Kenwood model are there any others or is this...

Does anyone have a source that can supply a harness to keep the oem sensors and control on an aftermarket head unit. Maybe kenwood dmx7018 or alpine ilx700 or the likes? Many thanks Ian

After bit of advice and possibly help please. I own a Highline LWB PV and would love to upgrade my standard headhunt to discover media unit. I was thinking to get one of eBay and then get it coded to my van (should I need to) and unlock connect app as well as voice dial button on the steering...

I am going to install my shiny new kenwood stereo at the weekend... How easy is it to thread the dashcam and microphone wires from the stereo up to the roof lining? Is it easier to go via the passenger side or the drivers side and any other hints and tips gratefully received...

Im still at a loss as to which head unit to go for!!! I’m split between the Alpine and Kenwood Stereos....... Both look great! Just seen this .... iLX-702D 7” Digital Media Station, featuring Apple CarPlay and Android Alpine are about to release the upgrade to this head unit hence the sale...

Evening all, After some time on Google drinking tea I've got this to work now on a non Google (pixel) phone. You need an android 9 phone and a headunit with WiFi and android auto. The setup I'm using is a Kenwood DMX8019DABS and a Samsung s10+ In my case I did nothing to the headunit and...

My wife bought this radio head for our new (to us) T6 (2016). The trouble is that it did not come with a fittings kit. Any ideas where to get those bits? Thanks in advance, Tony

Hi guys, Another newby here and my first post. Is this sound system standard on a T6/T30 Jan 2016? Cheers, SLS

anyone know what model this is and how much it’s worth? Looking at getting a halo 9 but want to put figures together first

After all my escapades in modifying and using the RCD330+, I decided to do what I always end up doing and start a new project with only a week to go til my annual fortnight touring Europe. So I've ordered a Kenwood 8019. (I shied away from the undoubtedly better 9190 due to budget). One of the...

I'm specing up a new vehicle and don't want to waste money on the discover media Nav system as I plan to put an Alpine X802D in it. So the vehicle will be supplied with the basic Composition colour radio; 5" touch screen as standard. My question is the standard unit has no Sat Nav but the...

We have the standard base radio unit in our Trendline T6, which to be honest did everything we wanted, until I discovered Apple CarPlay on our new Skoda. So, simple question - what's the best ICE unit to get that supports CarPlay ? Stunning audio performance is not the highest priority, but a...

I plan on installing a 360 camera system on our LWB T6. The standard headunit will not accept a camera (oem or 3rd party), so I have to change it. As much as I would like to replace it with something like an Alpine or Kenwood unit, the funds available for this whole project do not stretch that...

Looking at swapping front speakers. Without stripping door first does anyone know what sizes I need to be looking at? Also any recommendations? Ta peeps

As title. My neighbour has a 2017 T6 tranporter with standard non satnav head unit. I've recently replaced my Ford Focus with an Android head unit and hes looking for something similar for around £250 (GPS, touchscreen, reverse camera etc) All the ones I've seen listed only mention up to a 2015...

Does anyone know what model this is? Says Clarion when turned on but can’t find any details on it. Thinking or swapping to something with app connect but unsure if 1. This has got it and 2. How easy to move rear camera/navy etc over? Thanks for any help

Hello All, As per the title, I have a Kenwood DNX9180DABS in a VW T6, and I cannot seem to get anything to pair with Bluetooth. Just wondered if anybody has a solution. I have checked the settings and Bluetooth is turned on and set to visible. The phone does work with CarPlay. It’s an iPhone...
