I do not have one but am severely disappointed in the horrible gui: inconsistent from one function to the next, some hd some not, some have a "stretched" appearance to fit the screen

There are several large threads

Try searching for Dynavin
It looks like the best bang for the Buck
but I wonder about the quality
Also looks like it belongs in the dash more than any
other unit I have seen

There are side effects to installing aftermarket head units be sure
you study those.
A lot of people are installing aftemarket software now and there
is an Android version in the works or just out

It not like a seprate amp and quality speakers

Though it is probably a lot better than the base stereo offered in Europe
the rest of the World and the 2010 and early 2011 model year in the US.
Its about functions and gizmos not sound quality.

The pictures I have seen of the Android equipped one has better graphics
than the first release . Not the low res Dos stuff .

Also is there a subwoofer control for volume as I want to also fit a sub in and would like the control from my head unit. I'm sure I have seen in a user manual for Dynavin head unit that there is but sure if it's the rite model

Thanks for your help

You need to talk to somebody that actually has one or
sells them.
