Yes I put in this chinese unit a couple years ago and am still very happy with it. Adding a Camera was only about 30 bucks. It has already worked flawlessly over an Alberta winter and two summers!!!

I just installed a backup cam in my 2012 sport this weekend and installed a kenwood nav unit double din as well.

can you post pictures - i need to do this soon - my wife has a history of backing into foreign objects - anything can and will help. the autodvdgps looked interesting because it seems truly plug and play. I guess my biggest concern is what happens to the radio display area on the screen?

....reviews are from the same guy with corney names in Chinglish, lol....
As far as the pricing and features/fit, it certainly looks like a nice unit, but they give no specifications of an amplifier...does it come built in, or do you need an external?? Hard to swallow this package until I hear of actual, hands-on feedback from an installation/purchase....and maybe 6 months of followup!

A word to the wise - see http://www.resellerratings.com/store/AutoDVDGPS_Qualir if you have problems, it may be hard to resolve.

Check out my thread here about my install of a double-din deck:

Regarding the information display, all you lose is just where it shows the volume level and radio station. You still keep all the outside temp, climate control and mpg stuff.

Personally, I'd go with a double din known solution rather than some odd thing, but to each their own!
