Good evening. what are the dimensions of the screen you installed?
Thank you very much for sharing! I am wondering how much are the ram and rom for your stereo? Do you have any recommendation about the minimum for smoothly running?
Hi Lu,
I have this stereo for 1.5 year and it's okay. For me, the ram is 2GB and the rom is 32GB. For sure, 4GB of ram would be better if the Android is customized properly.
Thanks for the tutorial!
Unfortunately, I don't saw the part when you place the navigated antenna.
Also, can you give me an recommendations about an android device for my Skoda Rapid, but with more inches and physicals buttons? I prefer Podofo firm.
Thanks in advance!
You are right. The antenna is placed on a plate over the head unit. You can attach that to the windscreen or any other place. You should check the signal with GPS Test app to find the best place.
Unfortunately, it's very hard to find a head unit for this car with bigger screen AND physic buttons due to the limited available space. There is a trade off between these two parameters.
Hello. Are you satisfied after 3 years of use? Does the radio get hot?
Hi, do steering wheel control buttons work with this system?
Hi,
The head unit has some pins for connecting steering wheel control. Also, there is a steering wheel control setting in the menu, but I never tried that personally, since my car has no steering wheel keys.
Hi, is it supported skoda laura 2007 model car? Also can you please tell me what is the model of stereo..
In the following link, there is an image with the Head Unit dimensions. If the dimensions matches your car, you can use this model. However, you should double check the cable assembly as well.

I have a similar question as well. I also have a rapid (sedan) 2014.
Hi, I have the same car, so can you share if you bought a head unit?

I don't know. you should measure your current head unit and then compare with this head unit in the product link in AliExpress.

I am not sure as my car's heating controls are mechanical switches.

Hi, In used the following sensor with wireless transmitter that shows the distance on the screen.

Hi my wifi is not connecting with my phone i have tried 3/4 phones and it is still not working any advice on how to fix?
It depends on your head unit model. But, I suggest to check the wi-fi antenna. There are two wires that act as an BT and wi-fi antenna. They have been shown in this video too.
can the original battery be used?. Thanks
Which battery?
@@omidtalebithe original battery of the Skoda. Thanks
@@robert-ts9qg If you mean the car battery, it can be used with any car battery
@@omidtalebi thanks 👍👍
Can you pls send me where to purchase !
Thks
You can find the link in the comments
Hello sir,
After instal my battery is dead can you help me what can i do? Thanks
I have the same issue. The installation went perfectly but the car battery was dead. What is the issue?
I'm not sure. But as a guess, there is a socket on the power cable that you should disconnect when you are using CAN box. You should double check that to make sure your device goes off when the car is off.
works in skoda octavia 2004¿?
