  • Navi 900/ android unit

    Hi. Just joined and recently bought a insignia, early 2015 model, it has a navi 900 system, my question is can this be replaced with a android unit as mine is pretty basic, have looked online and cant find a definative answer, was thinking of buying a unit from aliexpress, any seller i have messaged says it will work,from what i read online some say if it has nav factory fitted then we cant replace them, couple of sellers on e bay reckon i need a tesla unit, i have attached some pics, any help would be greatly appreciated,some of these android units look identical in terms of fitting

    Don't see why not, you will end up with an extra GPS antenna under the dash as you probably can't use the factory fitted one. All the aftermarket units I have had in the past came with their own GPS antenna.

    Have you looked at Icebox Auto? They are UK based and will give you great tech support if you need it. They will also make sure that the unit is compatible with your car. http://www.iceboxauto.co.uk/

    I've had units from Aliexpress before and the support was no existent!

          Yes, it probably will be, but what will the support be like once they have your money?

          I would only buy from the UK now

                  I doubt that will make any difference, the facelifted Insignia started in 2013.
                  A 2014 unit will fit a 2015 car.
