Android Head Unit

Hi Guys,

Recently got my hands on an E60 and now looking to add an Android head unit. Can anyone recommend any from Aliexpress. I have a CCC system and no Aux cable.

Thanks

Got a unit form AliExpress, and got it installed! 👍🏼

Just one question, I got a reverse camera, boot handle style. It seems the connection plug are different to the stock. Does anyone know if there’s an adapter, I’ll try to include pictures.

I think the black connector is for the trunk button, and the other should be for power to the camera. Most of the android (v10+) of the head units will provide constant power, and switch the input when it detects it through OBD (or that's what I was told by one of the vendors). This is also how they can use the camera for the "DVR" function...
