Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen 7 inch Android 15 Head Unit with Wireless CarPlay, Android Auto and 4G

The unit is a custom fit for the Mercedes-Benz B-Class W245 (2005-2011), A-Class W169 (2004-2012), Viano and Vito W639 (2006-2018) and Sprinter W906 (2006-2022), and the Volkswagen Crafter (2006-Now). On the Viano and Vito, check the dimensions first.

Your centre console needs to be quadrate-shaped for it to fit. It isn't compatible with cars that have a factory MOST fibre-optic system.

After fitting, the CD changer and the original motorised compartment stop working, and air conditioning information isn't shown on the screen.

Your iPhone connects to CarPlay over Wi-Fi without a cable, so maps, music, calls and messages show up on the dashboard while the phone stays put. You can also plug in by USB if you prefer a wired connection that charges the phone.

Android Auto works wirelessly or over USB. Google Maps, music apps and messages appear in a simple layout made for driving, and Google Assistant handles them by voice.

Insert a standard nano SIM card and the head unit has its own internet connection for maps, streaming and apps. You don't need to set up a hotspot on your phone each time you get in.

A 4G antenna is in the box.

Dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4GHz and 5GHz) gives a faster, steadier connection for streaming, updates and navigation when there's a network nearby. It also carries the wireless CarPlay and Android Auto connection.

The 7 inch QLED screen has a 1280×720 resolution with bright, vivid colours, so maps and media are crisp at a glance.

It's a Grade-A HD IPS panel with wide viewing angles. The passenger sees the same clear picture as the driver, which helps when they're following the route.

A built-in DSP DQ7603 lets you shape the sound to suit the cabin, from tone to balance. The STMicroelectronics TCB001HQ amplifier (4x45W) drives the speakers.

Optical, coaxial and RCA audio outputs let you feed an external amplifier or processor if you want to build up the system later. An RCA cable is in the box.

The unit supports GPS, Galileo, GLONASS and BEIDOU for accurate positioning. A GPS antenna is supplied, so you can run a navigation app on the unit itself as well as through your phone.

An RDS-FM/AM tuner is built in, and the unit is DAB+ ready. Add an XTRONS USBDAB04 DAB+ tuner (sold separately) for digital radio stations.

Screen mirroring puts your phone's display on the head unit, useful for an app that doesn't run in CarPlay or Android Auto. It's best left to a passenger or for when you're parked.

Bluetooth 5.4 pairs your phone for hands-free calls and audio streaming. A microphone is included so callers hear you clearly.

The unit supports 720P and 1080P AHD cameras and shows the picture as soon as you shift into reverse. The camera connection is part of the wiring harness, and a camera cable is in the box.

If your car has an original rear view system, order the XTRONS ICE/AOS/FZMRM01 to keep it working.

Android 15 runs on an ASR8662 Octa-Core CPU with 6 GB DDR4 RAM and 128GB UFS 2.2 storage, so apps open quickly and there's room for maps and music. A cooling system keeps it stable on long drives.

A warm start takes 1 second, so the screen is ready almost as soon as you turn the key.
