Xydehead posted that it would cost over 3000 to get android auto

this option seems cooler but then again it’s probably for those die hard tuners.

that looks sooo dope but also looks so expensive lol

$640 VS $3000 for OEM nissan’s looks expensive? Yes, there’s labor involved but I think it shouldn’t be that expensive.

xydehead

I would rather wait for OEM unit price to go down in 3 figures lol...

rablaze93

i mean i was expecting the intallation and head unit all together would be rather expensive in general. i think with labor it could be around 1500 maybe but i'm not too sure. also can you change the language of the head unit?

I normally have concerns over things like this.
Obviously the Nissan apps would go away, but who wants to subscribe to that crap anyhow (Nissan Connect/XM bricked my navigation and XM subscription due to a "clerical error" 60 days after a service). Navigation is probably better (Google Maps?), but requires a persistent network connection.
The biggest issue is support - if this thing dies, you're screwed.

NisCal17

Yes if it’s dies it would suck. Seems like it’s running Android so I imagine it has WiFi capabilities if not then Android phone can be paired via Bluetooth to sync it or mirroring.

Costs to be 1st. Lets lay in the weeds and see how it holds up in other cars Nice layout. What resolution is it pushing? In map view?

This company based in Los Angeles. I might visit them to find out more about this unit. If it’s plug and play I’ll get it on the spot.

It is plug in play . I call them . Am thinking in get it one but i don’t want to loose my carbon fiber trim in that area.

I'm curious to know if the buttons and navigation **** from the center console area work with this.

NisCal17

do they have them in stock in California? I just found out that satellite radio and voice control does not work. So Sirius XM would need to be streamed.

NisCal17

Yes,that it curios.

A36-SR

No it will not work , gps will only work if you use network from you phone with it will be google maps. No xm ,voice commands, gps and gps center controls all this will not work .

robtroxel

That's a knock out punch for a great half baked idea

A36-SR

Yes i know, i love the style to but for me it will be double knockout. I will losses my carbon fiber trip. But is a great looking radio for some one the loves a crazy system , i stay with my stock bose system and carbon.
