Hello all,

 

I'm a newbie and please excuse if the post isn't right.

 

I've a 2010 Skoda Octavia and planning to change the standard radio to a android set. Existing set on the picture attached.

 

Ideally, I would like to connect my phone with some music, maps, camera, parking etc.

 

I'm super confused with the models and looks like is a minefield. I wonder if someone could help me with the selection. I've finally listed all the items as Xtron Vs Pumpkin Vs rest (AliExpress). 

 

Any help is much appreciated.

Lastly, is it better to purchase via Amazon or eBay instead buying direct from Xtron or Pumpkin?

You haven't mentioned what model/make of replacement unit you are thinking about just a list of potential suppliers ??

That's what I'm confused about. Whether to go with pumpkin or xtron or something from AE.

So you're expecting someone to trawl through the different suppliers sites and then tell you what to buy ??

Pretty much if it's not too much of a pain.

 

To start with, I'm thinking to get a pumpkin set one from the below
