Is anyone running any of these android headunits? I'm curious on the functionality and quality in them. If they are a 'clean' unit with BT and apps like Torque etc... For $300-$400 they seem like a good deal.

I've watched about 10 vids on these over the last couple weeks and been checking prices/features/etc. About to pull the trigger on one.

I've been looking at some as well on autopumpkin.com seems to be what I'm looking for with WiFi, Bluetooth, navigation ect. But don't know much on them yet so haven't purchased.

1st post BTW!

does it have heat and a/c controls? heated seats?

rray · 02-25-2015, 10:48 AM

I had one, they are packed with features but slow to Boot and only OK at sound quality. Torque will make the deal though.

You have to get the Metra or Sosche kits for that.

BooSSted · 02-25-2015, 01:44 PM

I have the sosche kit already with an alpine unit. I'm worried about the fitment of the auto pumpkin etc double dins. As stated torque an full Bluetooth integration is the selling point for me.

Which unit did you have and do/did you have an aftermarket schose / alpine fascia ?

http://www.autopumpkin.com/new-produ...port-obd2.html this is the one I'm looking into. But I also found it on Amazon and review said it's a tiny bit bigger than 6.2 and you have to trim the trim.

BooSSted · 02-25-2015, 08:15 PM

Those are the two models I have on my list. My only concern is if it will fit in the Scosche dashkit without it looking tacky or with modification.

Thats what im worried about as well. I might just take the leep, and buy it today. Ill probably pay someone to trim it for me, id mess it up.
