They have drastically improved in quiality since they were first released, but they do not come with a decent manual or an install guide. So most issues people have with these can very often be due to poor/incorrect installs. My recommendation, if you want a kayhan unit, go to someone who has experience installing them. That way if something does go wrong with it, you are covered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are so hit and miss, clearly quality issue. But they are the only factory drop-in option unfortunately 😞 Aerpro have a fascia now but imo it looks ugly, and you loose the top hat that everyone loves to put gauges on. With kayhan, you roll the dice. If you get one that works, you'll love it and never regret buying one. They are so good when they work. If they break though its a massive headache to get a replacement or refund Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just need to have it installed by someone that knows what they are doing. I like the idea of being able to choose whatever infotainment unit you want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have installed a car audio system or dash cams its very easy to fit and wire up. But its not quite plug n play, and I think that is what has caught people out. The V1 unit had problems, but the newer versions are fine. I have had no issues for years. They now have a cheaper unit that runs on linux rather than android. Good option if you use carplay or android auto. I think they have a bigger 4k screen as well. I still daily my car half the time, it brings the infotainment upto modern newer cars. I even run draggy on it lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only complaint is I wish the screen was brighter, but overall extremely happy with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use this in my mk2. I vaguely remember seeing a post about a new even bigger 4k screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
