Cheap Chinese Head Unit

[nick-z4]

Hi,

Looking for recommendations for cheap Chinese head units.

Changing from the stock head unit for wireless carplay, and the only feature that I really care about is the steering wheel controls working. I'm well aware the audio will be terrible at this price point, but as long as it's good enough for Google Maps, phone calls and some background music, I'm not too fussed.

Would prefer a single din solution rather than removing the air vents too. If anyone has any examples they can point me to I'd really appreciate that. if it's available on eBay for a decent price too then that'd be ideal.

Not a fan of aftermarket stuff but a quick google brought this up which seems to fit the bill https://www.amazon.co.uk/Hikity-Detachable-CarautoPlay-Touchscreen-MirrorLink-Black/dp/B09QQ9T1YP/ref=asc_df_B09V5D7LXV/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=570512189027&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=5659810878669822682&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9046338&hvtargid=pla-1655997195489&psc=1&th=1#video-immersive-view_1693809935239

This might not fit the bill perfectly,
but I installed this in my e85:

I'm very happy with it. It utilizes your phone as the screen, and has decent sound for the price-point, a lot better than the standard unit. Completed it with a frame for looks. I can snap a photo of it if you'd like
