Wowzer!

Impressive. Please share details about the switch and the new hardware.

Love the readability of the new display.

Very cool.

That radio looks like a radio with an Android tablet glued to the front LOL.

Looks like its this guy (Amazon). Hmm this may be a winter project I think I'd like that better than the Jensen I replaced the Jensen with (and it appears to use the same navigation software as my replacement Jensen).

Very interesting indeed.

Pretty funny showing a pic of the Thor Forum app!

Jamie. It could be that one. After researching them many of the same style but under diff. Names. I did purchase mine on Walmart online because I had $150.00 in points on a cc I used. Very Very Easy Install. All wires Same Color as axxera. Screen tilts. Works well. Sounds good! Just an all around different way of combining monitors with less wires, cleaner look. My radio was DOA so I had to put something in. I didn't want to add an $800.00 system 4 only using in periodic travels and trading in with $$ radio installed. I Have blue tooth boxes for the party music that I can take anywhere. @$300.00 I am Very happy with this purchase. Actually looks better in person than photos. All buttons accessible. Also comes in 7 in. Very geeky with Playstore apps. Last photo is me checking my house security cameras. I did install myself. On a DIY 1-10 difficulty I would give it a 3. After you separate all speaker wires & others we do not use but you can Subwoofer etc. Only about 8 wires to attach. HAS TURN AND BACKUP CAMERA. Use same axxera plug at back of radio, has setting to KEEP ON WHILE USING BLINKERS[emoji106][emoji106]Click image for larger version

Yes there is. My Brand older Carchet will not. I also think it is because my brand does Not have an App. I would need the app. From playstore installed first. I will be selling my unit on Ebay and upgrading.

There are different versions of Bluetooth. Some older stuff cannot communicate with the newer Bluetooth specifications.

There is also Bluetooth Low Energy (usually just shown as Bluetooth LE) which is different from the older just "Bluetooth" specification.

Ah here it is on the Walmart website looks to be the same brand as Amazon (Eincar).

Hmm some of the reviews on Amazon say its Android 6, not 7.1 you might want to check that (in settings "About Device").

I actually think the TPMS you use has an app. and will work. I didn't realize how popular these head units were until I checked Youtube.

Yes, That is the one I did purchase Eincar. Now there could be better. I did buy this one so I could use CC points.

You might have missed my edit: Some of the Amazon reviews (if you search Amazon for 10" android in dash radio you get about 3 or 4 identical products sold by different vendors) state that their unit only has Android 6, not 7.1 and that the memory specs are smaller than advertised.

Yes, Mine does have 7.1 in the settings. I do know this because after setting up I looked for an "upgrade" setting and did not find one.
