    Here is the Android headunit that I installed few months ago. I am very satisfied with it as it has everything I need and does not lag. At 2GB ram, I have minimum apps installation. Only install those that I need. Also, not advisable to install third party launcher as it will slow down the headunit. If you want to install third party launcher, get 4GB ram units.

    I will follow up with the 360 cams installation on my next video.

    This is just to share my DIY experience with everyone.

    Excellent videos, very helpful thanks. I am looking to add an Android System to my 2011 and this looks perfect. The 9-inch screen fills the dash very nicely, no empty bezels around the screen.

    How long does the unit take to start-up/boot aftertime starting the car?

    When you turn off the car, the system goes into sleep mode. So when you start your car, it only takes seconds to "initialize". And you will be playing the same radio channel prior to shutting the car.
