Can you put the two screens side by side? It would be nice to see google maps and have radio/phone/climate controls on at the same time.

It won't be possible as the screens are mutually exclusive. For the climate control, if you adjust the AC while on the Android screen, it'd show their own version of the climate control so you'll know what you're adjusting. Radio is not available in Android. For phone, it does have a bluetooth option along with the dialer.

Huyuci, I'm in contact with support on this, and they claim that this isn't compatible with the Burmester system. Can you confirm/deny? Thanks.

I can't really confirm/deny because I didn't have Burmester. But I didn't have Burmester because I didn't have Comand. I only had Audio 20. I thought the only difference was the speakers and maybe an extra amplifier. And when it switches to Android, it uses its own amplifier anyway. But who knows. Their software may not be compatible with Burmester. They do have 30 days return though. So, it's up to you.

Same deal hear man, Burmester speakers with Audio20.
Their unit is not compatible with fiber optic amplifiers but I found an updated 10.25 Android screen that is compatible with our set up, I will PM you the contact info he's selling it for $520 including shipping.
I will be purchasing mine after Christmas I spent too much on upgrading my component speakers already.

I feel like this is a no brainer upgrade if they could make it Burmeister compatible. Amazing that they can't. Yet, I hope.

Anyone know if this mod is available in North America?

I think with the added screen, there is the possibility to install some pretty neat vehicle diagnostic softwares to be displayed as well.













You can buy this unit directly from China through this website: www.carlife-mall.net
I'm currently in communication with them in purchasing mine. However, the whole country in on holiday from Feb. 5th to the 25th. They'll accept payments, but will not be shipping until after the 26th. FYI.

To my understanding, you're suppose to screen mirror through bluetooth. ESPECIALLY if you have an iPhone. They don't have a dongle for the iPhone.

No, I didn't purchase the display screen. Found out from a YouTuber who bought it, that there were 3 issues with the unit.
1) if you have the pre-facelift dashboard, then the signal conversion box had problema. Post facelift doesn't need the signal conversion box.
2) when answering phones calls the sound only comes from left speaker, not the entire surround sound. And comes out very loud which volume can not be adjusted
3) the mileage indicator and the tachometer on the display screen only reads in kilometer, not mileage.

So I decided to hold off until the company addresses these issues. I reported the issues to the company and theybsaid they'll look into it and well see about applying fixes in the next OS upgrade.

Ahh I see, thanks for the update. I'm considering just retrofitting to OEM COMAND, found a unit for $900 (screen and COMAND unit) plus $150 to program it.

I'd also recommend getting the video in motion cable from naviks.com while you're at it. It's $160, but it allows you to enter navigation coordinances while the car is moving. Along of course to play movies while driving too! LOL But it's well worth it for the nav part alone. I put this into my car already.
