Hi all, my new (old) ST arrives saturday. It's mainly a bit of a toy to play with but want to keep it sort of sensible (4 door so I can pretend it's practical)

first on the list to swap is the sony head unit for something touchscreen, I don't have any CDs thesedays so something I can connect my iphone to and play apple music off would be ideal.

any suggestions?

You can either go for a branded double din head unit e.g. Pioneer or JVC etc or go for an Android based (chinese) head unit such as the unit I purchased from Xtrons for my MK2 Focus.

• The big name units will likely need less configuration/setup to get working how you want but you won't have the options to customise/add apps etc
• The Xtrons units (and similar from other brands) will required a bit more config i.e. installing your favourite satnav app etc but tend to work out about half the price of the big name units for similar features.  Because the units run on Android you can install virtually any apps you want i.e. Angry Birds for when you're picking up your GF/life partner and he/she is running late! 😁
