Would anyone recommend this Head Unit or something similar?
https://www.crutchfield.com/p_070AC6...CPM6628BT.html
I'm fed up with the factory GPS and would love to use my iPhones navigation. I see this Head Unit has Apple Car play which is awesome and my research tells me this is a direct plug and play swap? The only thing is I have never heard of this brand before. It could just be my ignorance however. Please inform me or even give me something better that you guys would recommend. Thanks! |

definitely not a direct plug and play, that has standard aftermarket antenna hookup and standard wiring to be mated with a aftermarket harness adapter, metra or scoche are common brands.
on the audio side of things its got a 10 band instead of 13 band eq, and 14w rms instead of 22w rms internal amp that you find on some of the other brands I wouldn't choose this personally over the Sony XAV-AX100, unless you are planning amps and other things and the cheaper internals on the axxera don't matter. and yes I realize that the Sony also only has 10 band eq, which isn't bad, but you can find 13 on some units.

In my experience, built-in mics are not good. Not saying this one wouldn't be fine, but experience would make me stay away.
