Bluetooth head unit options.

[raymie155]

Hi.  I am wondering what would be the best option for Bluetooth in my 1.2 Tsi SE.  My teenage daughter is not amused with the lack of media connecting options, not to mention hands free calls! 🙄

Have you considered those Android HeadUnits ?   I installed one in my old Roomster and now put one in my current Yeti too.

Gives me Android Auto, SatNav and Bluetooth as you're after.

 

In my Yeti I installed the S8 version of this :

Hi Aubrey.  Thanks for your info, I was on the android track, I will have a look at that.  Thanks

If you go down that route then for my Yeti I had to also get:

 

VW CanBus Adapter

Dual Fakra Antenna Adapter

You would do good to check your Roomsters current connections to confirm your needs. You can always send me pictures if unsure.

I know this might be too late (sorry) but try these people https://essgoo.com/collections/car-audio-video/products/essgoo-android-ar7002-car-radio-multimedia-player-support-navigation-autoradio-2din-stereo-video-mp5-rds-wifi-for-volkswagen fitted into my Roomster scout 08 plate very very easily, only problems i had were:-

1. Power not going off after removal of key (easy fix just disconnect the wires) and insert the canbus box supplied with Head Unit

2. Google maps not coming on straight away (insert phone via usb lead) again supplied with unit

apart from that it works a treat (so far and its been fitted 6 mths now)
