Best aftermarket Android Headunit

I'm looking for a good Android headunit working together with Harmon Kardon sound system, and a look like the standard headunit.

Any suggestions ?

Do you have the Teyes CC3? I’m trying to find out if the factory cd player and the comand knob work with the Teyes. Not a lot of info available about them and they manufacturer doesn’t answer emails. Of course that should be enough for me not to buy from them. Another company answered emails on a Sunday, but I really like the CC3.

Yes, I do. Yes they are working together or can be replaced. Alongside with CC3 or any other HU they r sending CAN Bus adapter
Absolutely the same with communication, be careful abt it with manufacturer... they r not replying at all...

Anyway, my problem as follow, when switching revers gear, reversing lights don't work, how to solve it still don't know yet... but on my opinion the problem with CAN Bus adapter

Joying is the go to! Get one with a volume knob or you will hate life. . .

I like the Joying units, but they don’t list anything for Mercedes.

You'll have to get a dash kit and install a universal floating screen unit. Anything between 10 and 11 inches fits without blocking any buttons or displays. Problem with joying for me (I have one) is it's **** at android-y things. It's good at radio things, but their implementation of android is simply awful. If you just want a head unit to do head unit things then you're probably ok, but I'd bet the T'eyes CC3 will do the same, but with a slightly better android experience.

Check it out. . A bit expensive but works great and Joying has great customer service. Their quality speaks for the value VS generic android head units that may and will fail.

You will need a Fiber Optic Decoder to work with Harmon Kardon which sets you back another $100.

Sorry to revive, but are you able to get your steering wheel controls to work with it? I cannot find installation information either, can you point me in that direction?
