I have just ordered and Isudar unit from AliExpress. Seems to be the updates chipboard which negates the need for a separate box. Will update in due course when it turns up and get chance to fit! Recently fitted something similar to an Audi S4 and it made a HUGE difference so the PCM was a big step back. Hoping it'll go smoothly!

I fitted similar to isundar unit and it's decent. I also like the fact there's no external box.

I just watched the video ... and to be honest it looks far more fiddly than the joyeauto that I have fitted from design 911 ... but it seems to do the same job .. I guess it does car play and or android ... but mine does have the separate box which is easily installed above the glove box and has an input for updates if and when they are needed ... I THINK GETTING THE DASH APART IS PROBABLY THE MOST TRICKY .... but once you know where you can apply pressure its straight forward.... feel free to dm me if you need any tips along the way . And keep us updated ... btw how much was your kit > £

I am having Nick install "Factory" Apple CarPlay & Android Audio to my PCM 4 tonight.

This involves no aftermarket kit wired in.

Very helpful and knowledgeable chap.

Will update after install complete.
