If you already have Command, why in the world would you want to spend money & effort to upgrade to this?

Noticed two units came with the screen, not sure if we need to replace them with our existing audio20 unit?

Just placed an order for mine,(10.25 Android screen) this seems so much better then a split screen option.

They just mentioned the sound wouldn't work if I have an OEM amplifier, do you also have the Burmeister surround sound in your car and did you have any issue with the sound not working?

Is this the same one as you bought? Seems a bit different?

http://www.mbscashopen.com/multimedi...uchscreen-w205


Also, there was a Gmail app on yours. Does it actually work? Can you send and receive on it?

Is the navigation (not when screen mirroring, but the one that's built in) google maps? Or some other 3rd party navigation?

No, it doesn't look like the same one. The one from my link is much cheaper. It's in the $500's. There are all kinds of apps on the unit. This is Android based, so pretty much any apps that works on your tablet would work on this. There's google map and you can install any navigation app from Google Play.

Could you help us out and post a video of Google maps navigation in action?

Also, did you have Audio20 or Comand before? And with or without Burmister?

Will try to do it today since you've been pretty persistent about it :-)

Thanks. I don't mean to be pushy, I just want to know what I'm buying before I do because it's not cheap, and I suspect the customer service, given that it's overseas, will be nonexistent.

I'm mainly interested in:
Google maps navigation
Gmail (can you send and receive from the app, or just read? does it sync properly or does it take a while to show mew massages, that sorta thing)
Wanting to know if you previously had Audio20 or COMAND, and Burmeister or not.

I would definitely buy you lunch if you were around the Indianapolis area!

Thank you!

These units are made in China with no brand, so, yeah, there's absolutely no customer service/support whatsoever. But I don't think you'll need it. If you can remove the center console, you definitely can install it.
About Gmail, I'm curious as why you want it so badly. Are you going to write email while driving? :-)
I only have Audio 20. No Comand or Burmeister.
You can always FedEx my lunch :-)

Why would you need one? You're talking about the original screen? Nothing was changed, if that's what you're wondering.

Correct, just curious to see if any original functionality was compromised.

These are 2 separate screens, original screen and Android screen. The original screen cannot be modified in anyway. They just added the new Android screen as you see in the video. The 2 screens can be togged back and forth via pressing & holding the return button for a few seconds.

Nice videos, thanks! Google maps seem to work very well. Now I just have to decide between the one you posted and the one I posted earlier. Price is a factor, but I'm wondering how else they are different.

Personally, I think the $500's is about right. It's about the same as buying a Garmin SD card. The one you posted is too much. But that's just me.
