Faz Posted March 27, 2021 Report Share Posted March 27, 2021 Hi All, ive recently bought a lupo, and want to upgrade to a double din, would be nice to have apple carplay but they seem to be more expensive (for a reason i guess) Budget wise, im looking to spend around £150-£200 if that is possible? My basic requirements is that it has Bluetooth and touch screen, everything else is a bit of a bonus really. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skezza Posted March 28, 2021 Report Share Posted March 28, 2021 Get an Android Double Din. Will probably be the most functional head unit you’ll ever buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lupo1.0se Posted March 28, 2021 Report Share Posted March 28, 2021 If you want to go OEM. You could get one of these. But you may need the code for it. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Radio-Navigation-System-MCD-Passat-Golf-CD-Changer-Control/393190540725?hash=item5b8bfb85b5:g:rW4AAOSwSMRgTd5g Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faz Posted March 28, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2021 Thanks for replies. Id prefer something more modern that what the OEM has to offer tbh, any pointers on the android ones, or anyone decent enough for the job? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coachie Posted March 28, 2021 Report Share Posted March 28, 2021 (edited) Hi Faz, I bought a Sony XAV-AX3005 a few years ago and got it fitted to my 2007 Polo 1.2E. Excellent sound quality through the standard speakers, Dab and Android Auto/ Car Play capable. RRP £399 I picked it up from Amazon Spain for about £240 at the time. I believe they do similar cheaper versions AX1000 £269 RRP and AX1005DB £309 RRP. Both of these only do Car Play, not Android Auto. The more expensive one also has DAB but is often discounted to about the same price. I haven't bought anything from Amazon.eu for a while and the days may now be over with the import duty, but www.webprice.eu is worth checking out. There was a used AX1000 on ebay earlier for £139.99, the seller looks trustworthy. I would have been all over it for my Lupo but I need Android Auto. It may be missing the Microphone though. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sony-XAV-AX1000-6-2-inch-Apple-CarPlay-Receiver-/284236270526?hash=item422dcd4bbe%3Ag%3Au0EAAOSwdwhgYEvl&nma=true&si=%2BKqr2puCd2%2FSgBu%2Fb55xO5ScWIY%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 Mark Edited March 28, 2021 by coachie spelling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
