Hi all, I am looking to upgrade my factory radio. I am planning on going with a double din touch screen for a backup cam and probably nav. Just looking for some reviews on who has what and what they like and dislike about them. Thanks, Trevor

I currently have a pioneer avh2800 bs it's not a bad unit for 200 bux or so it's connected to my factory bu cam but you can add one if you don't have it, has USB. Android mirroring or appradio app with apple and it will use your phone to display gps play pandora all that good stuff

I added this one a couple weeks ago. Like it so far. (Although I don't have the Rockford Fosgate/amp to bypass OR steering wheel control to connect, so I can't vouch for any of that)

This is my first post, so I can't add a link. but if you search Amazon for "JOYING 7 Inch for Nissan Quad Core 1024600 Android 5.1.1" it should be the first one that comes up.

I also added the eSky camera for 18 bucks and a bluetooth ODB2 code reader (also under $20) that both work with this unit. I've been too busy to really play much with it (Thanks Hurricane Matthew!!) I wouldn't consider myself an expert or audio-phile by any means. But so far, it sounds fine to me, and I'm pleased with the price and ease.

One negative I would mention is it doesn't quite fit the Double-Din opening exactly. There is a small gap towards the bottom. Also, no CD player, but most of my media is on USB or my phone now anyway

You might try shimming the bottom of the radio brackets to give the radio a slight upwards tilt. Should make it fit better. I have to do mine just a little more and it will be clean as factory.

I'd skip the NAVI units and find one that will work with your phone navigation apps. You'll save a lot of money on the front end and will never need the very expensive updated NAVI discs. Check out the Pioneer head units. I'm on my third one so far. No issues with them, I only replaced them because I needed the NAVI upgrade and at $150 or so upgrading the whole radio worked for me to add some features. Plus I was till able to sell the old units for good enough money that it really wasn't that big of a hit. The most recent one I purchased just a few months ago. This one (also Pioneer) uses the phone GPS plus through I don't drive my Titan all that much these days, only about 5,000 miles in the last few years so this one will likely stay in there for quite a while.

I have Kenwood DNX892 w/ Nav. It works great. Used the Metra Kit, Put front and rear cameras in along with Sat Radio module. ran usb & HDMI connectors to the console and one usb to the dash. Steering wheel controls worked out good with some help from the folks here. Doing whole system revamp, I had RF system.

I want to upgrade mine as well. I have the Rockford Fosgate system in mine. Crutchfeld said there was no wire harness that would allow use of my factory bu cam. Did you have to do some creative wiring to use your bu camera?

If you pull up a parts schematic you should be able to see if there are any screws. To my recollection you have to pull the face plate/hvac control trim off first.
