Hey guys,
So I was interested in getting the Teyes CC3 head unit for my 2013 Accord EX-L that comes with dual screen. Teyes doesn’t offer compatibility with the trim of my car since it only supports the single screen model. But I came across the Ossuret head unit which is compatible with my car and was wondering if I could apply their canbus decoder onto the Teyes head unit or any canbus decoder from AliExpress onto the head unit. If you guys have any solution or information that would be a great help.
Similar question. Anyone ?
Why not asking Teyes if they support that specific CAN box?
They're selling an universal unit so that should be a legitimate question.

I contacted them, but they just said custom harness. From my research though the accord uses BNR. No way for me to know till i try so hopefully when my harness comes it'll work.

Hi guys,
My old Android head unit got touch screen broken so I'm looking for a new one.
My car is Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 120, 2005, with a JBL amplifier, but I already have a CANBUS decoder from my old android head unit.
Can you recommend a unit that will work with a rear view camera (RCA), car recorder (USB) and has possibly least number of issues?
And a seller (preferably tomtop, gearbest, banggood or aliexpress)?
You can look at Joying new Octa core 7'' head unit JY-UM135N2PX5C

Thanks for recommendation, but this is a 2-DIN unit, and I need one specific for Toyota Prado to integrate nicely with my dashboard. I didn't find one like that from Joying.
I installed the Joying JY-BO124N3 Android head unit which works great. The problem I'm having is the car is displaying metric units on start up. To fix this, I have to go into the head unit settings and change to imperial/American units which will then display the correct units on the dash/climate control. The headunit itself always displays the correct Imperial units (mph, F, etc). I contacted the manufacturer who said it wasn't possible to permanently change through the head unit. The Eunavi Android head unit in my Toyota doesn't have this problem so I'm assuming the problem is with the BMW. Is there anyway I can permanently program/code out metric units so only Imperial information is displayed on my dash?
I did a review on the head unit and show this problem at 3:23:

Bump
Anyone?
I can’t help other than to say I had the same issue with my BMW E90 and an Eonon unit so it seems like this might be an E90 thing with these aftermarket head units?

Ah, thanks for the reply. This is super helpful. I'm just relieved to hear that someone (unfortunately) had the same issue as me. If my Joying and your Eonon are doing the same thing, then I can pretty much narrow down that it's on BMW's end.
Hi all,
First time posting here. I need your expertise and help! I am looking for an Android head unit for my Mini Cooper 2012. I had found the Teyes CC3 but their support said that the Mini product they have (this one: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001666526066.html) is not compatible with a right-hand drive...
I really like the CC3 but if it doesn’t connect to my right-hand-drive car then I can’t order it. Can you guys suggest a solution or a better alternative that will work with my car?
I have attached a photo of my dash, if that helps. Thanks, everyone!

Android head unit (grey market, non certified device) or Genuine Android Auto?
Also, Teyes support may not be accurate.

Thanks for getting back to me! I quite like something like the Teyes one — essentially an Android tablet with all the functionality of a GPS, Radio, etc. What do you suggest?
“Also, Teyes support may not be accurate.” Do you mean to suggest that the CC3 will work with a right-hand-drive?
I have a Subaru Forester Limited with the Harmon Kardon audio system that came stock with the car.
I'm looking to upgrade to something that will provide Android Auto and Apple Carplay without needing to plug in the phone. I'm currently leaning towards Idoing but am open to any suggestions you all might have.
I don't have much experience when it comes tinkering with electronics or cars, so I figured one of these all one solutions would make it the easiest for me. This way I'm not going to be splicing any wires and it will all be plug and play (I hope).
I've reached out to Idoing because I'm not exactly sure which model I would even pick. These are the ones that seem to fit my vehicle, but I'm not 100% sure.
Idoing 9"Android Head Unit For Subaru WRX STI XV Forester 2016-2021 Car Autoradio Multimedia Video Player Navigation Stereo GPS
Idoing 9"2.5D QLED Car Android Radio GPS Multimedia Player Head Unit 4G+64G For Subaru WRX Forester 2016-2020 Navigation NO 2DIN
Idoing 9"Car Android Radio GPS Multimedia Player IPS 2.5D For Subaru Forester 2016-2018 4G+64G 8 Core Navigation Zlink Head Unit
So am I looking the wrong direction? Is there a brand that I'm overlooking that would be better for me to get?
Thanks.
Ask seller to provide screenshots of Android System information, including MCU. With that you could know what is being offered and then research the forums.
You probably want a UIS7862 FYT based uint.

If you can't find a head unit of a known brand you can buy such a frame with harness for your car and a 9 inch head unit separately.
Best start is to search for the pinout description of your current OEM radio. Because this gives you the possibility to validate the connections and to check if your cars SWC is a resistant matrix. Additonally it helps to use an existing reverse camera.
This can be done before you invest money.
If your SWC it is a resistance matrix you can directly connect the head unit and use the learn functionality to map your SWC buttons to different functions.
If you already have a reverse camera and you want to continue to use it you have to connect it by yourself. E.g. by finding a prepared adapter or by creating your own. Here is the description how I realized it for another car - just to give you an idea:
Junsun V1 MTK8259 - the adapter battle (Kia Ceed Jd) / OEM camera usage / reference thread
I bought the Junsun V1 head unit but my Kia Ceed JD had a OEM nav unit which isn't directly compatible to Junsun V1. So I re-wired the wiring harness based on the pins description of my original OEM navigation unit. I'm only modifying the wiring...
forum.xda-developers.com
The head unit sellers estimation is that you start with a stupid radio and so my car, which already had an outdated navigation head unit, was a special case - without a ready to use solution.
And please figure out if you own a Ford Mondeo MK3 or a MK4.
Car is MK4 and as far as I know it has resistant matrix at SWC. I found the same fascia as in picture you sent.
Reason why I wan't to install 9" unit is that I have Junsun V1 Pro from my former car. It would not be very expensive to test how it works, only CanBus decoder and wiring harness needed.

If you don't need CAN features even the decoder isn't needed. And it's better to connect resistant matrix bypassing the can box.

But now I see that you air condition has no separate display. As you know, to get this functionality a can box is required.
