I have seen a double din head unit on flebay that sells for around $135. It is advertised as a generic made in China unit. Has anyone seen it on person or tried installing one? The description sounds interesting.
can you provide a link? Some of the ones I have worked with are actually pretty decent, but unbranded or "knock offs". Get me a link and I can probably get you more info on it.
I haven't used that one specifically, but I have had good luck with similar products. I had a BMW 325i that had something from china that was very similar. I will tell you that the instructions are going to be hit or miss, and some of the "set up" may not go as smooth...but honestly, if you are looking for a low cost option, it will work. I don't know how water resistant they will be but at that price I wouldn't expect it to be too good.
