Radio is from 2010 and will be with code and updated

Ok Thanks Eddie I am happy with the results.

No I do not have it

Guys. I am in a real pickle! I sold my faulty( been suggested that main board has gone) Columbus so I have bit of £££. I was going to buy android HU for 200 but my friend said he can get me Columbus for bit extra £££. I really liked Columbus but had bad experience which cost me a lot. Used Columbus are usually £400 but could get for less then that. Question is ( and sorry if I will repeat it as probably was asked before on this forum) should I go with android or Columbus ( which will be around £100 more then android ) Thanks

Quick update I replaced wiring loom and control module. With help of a friend we managed to get steering wheel working. Only thing which is not working from steering wheel is trip computer scroll up/down button. I can change between 1 and 2trip by pressing scroll buttom but not to go through trip option. Trip computer works from stalk so its ok with me. Thanks for help Eddie

Thanks Cryonut I am more convinced to go with Erisin now

Stu HU I am looking at has this functions Support Bluetooth hands-free function, built-in microphone and external microphone Jack. - Support A2DP Bluetooth, can play stereo music through Bluetooth from your mobile Phone - Download phone book function, you can download contact information from your phone to this unit - Support the newest Phone Book Search, you can search & find a contact member in downloaded phone book, just input the first letter of name, you will find some associated names, then you can choose the right one

Thanks How long u have it for now and how good those maps on SD card are?

Cryonut which HU do you have

I am still on the fence between Erisin 7.1 quadcore and Eonon 6.0 octacore Guys how is radio reception on your HU Do you have DAB+ box with them

Thanks for link jlmo Will def have a look

I narrowed my choice to 3 similar units but with slightly different features Is there gona be much different between android 7.1 with quadcore and android 6 with octacore

Similar to Columbus

Thanks T2000 This particular unit is with quad core and android 7 but other 2 are with android 6 and octa core. Any thoughts suggestion would be greatly appreciated

I just came across this web https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/erisin.com Not very good reviews for Erisin

Thanks T2000 Got some serious thinking to do Also need to sell my faulty Columbus to generate some £££

Hi T2000 Thanks for that. Def something I will consider. Is your unit Octa od quad core It was mentioned before that unita without quad core may experience long booting.

We go abroad 2-3 times a year for 1-2 weeks. I am wondering about cost of using dongle abroad. Sorry for all the questions but this is new for me. In Columbus maps were preloaded. I think I will have to stretch my budget. There are some units on ebay for 228 or best offer with android 6 and octacore. I could offer 200 and see https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F292390875908 This unit should fit my car as have same dimensions as Columbus

Jlmo how do you use sat nav on your HU. I know you can use google and other android apps or do you have maps on sd card. Androids HU which I lookes at do not come with maps on sd card

Thanks jlmo but those HU are more then £ 200
