Recommend touchscreen double din headunit

Alfagtamini

Hi all
We are just after buying another van.

To make life easier our 3 vans have parrot mki9200 kits and the LWB van has a reversing camera.

I now have to buy a MKI9200 plus reversing camera (and scren) for the new van but came up with an idea to use the double din slot the van has.

Fit a touch screen double din headunit that has both hands free and reversing camera capability.

It must be iPhone compailatble and show contacts just like the mki9200.

Any suggestions welcome.

Have you got a set budget?

Have around €300 but that is providing it can function as a Carkit also

I think you're really only looking at ebay stuff for that money.

Hi colm

Thanks for the reply. I am tempted to pay the extra for the parrot asteroid double din unit . It ticks all the boxes but has poor enough reviews.

Kenwood ddx-42bt can be got on ebay for £200. I could then fit a basic parrot car kit and stay close to budget

if the kenwood has a bt on the end of the model name it means it has bluetooth, kenwood contracted parrot to do the bluetooth module for them so the quality is as good as a parrot kit.

Pioneer avic f7/900 bt would do what you require but I don't know if your budget will get one.
I bought a f7010bt off ebay in the america a few years back. It was a factory recon unit and has worked perfectly since. Only thing with it is the radio stations are set to different channels than we use. Can still pick up most of the major channels though.

I think parrot also do the bluetooth/handsfree in the pioneer ones

I have teh f900 bt in my car and its a great unit.
Having a bit of an issue updating the firmware, but the BT works really well on it.
Good quality

I am not sure about the phonebook visibility, it does not seem to work on my HTC one.

I have the avh 3300bt great piece of kit and will do everything your looking for doesn't come with a rear camera that will have to be got separate, has the connection for it. And should be in you budget.
