Bruss Posted September 6, 2019 Report Share Posted September 6, 2019 Would like a single din case with a 7 inch screen Needs BT for phone and I need satnav for Europe. Alpine Car Audio Systems iLX-702D 7" doesn't have FM. Do I need it? doesn't have satnav. How good is android auto and google maps or waze connectivity? Alpine Car Audio Systems INEW710D -7 inch Has sat nav. What else am I missing that I need to pay and extra 200 notes for on this one? or this? Pioneer SPH-EVO62DAB Anything else I should be looking at? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold FFM C8RKH Posted September 6, 2019 Gold FFM Report Share Posted September 6, 2019 Look at the Joying models. @TBD had one in his GTE and they are a good spec for the money. Google maps on Android Car is better than most satnavs as you can display "traffic density" and it will reroute based on live incidents. It's also free so no future paying for map updates etc. Quote I came into this world screaming and covered in someone elses blood. I'll probably leave it in the same way.

Bruss Posted September 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2019 So I had a look at tidying up the Lotus wiring for the Alpine HU, before fitting the new HU. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trcm Posted February 4, 2020 Report Share Posted February 4, 2020 I wanted Waze / Apple Maps too much, so upgraded my headunit to the iLX-702D (@Bruss it has FM!), and though it was a pain sorting the wiring harness I'm glad I did it. The sound is definitely better, and with the FM/DAB splitter, the reception on both is also MUCH better as they both work in the underground garage!

Bruss Posted February 4, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2020 Eventually went for the Pioneer avh z9200 dab.( with FM). No built in satnav but evrything else including wifi connection for the mobile and waze or android auto. Still no dab signal out here in the wilds of the French countryside though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EGTE Posted February 6, 2020 Report Share Posted February 6, 2020 I went with a Pioneer too and it's been great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
