I haven't installed one, but from what i've seen online it's the typical android widescreen unit with an i-bus interface for the steering wheel controls & a MOST-AUX box to run the factory amp.

And a grey-colour surround to match the console.

I'm putting an Android widescreen in a 2003 L322 this weekend, but that doesn't have MOST of course.

But it would be basically the same thing just with the MOST-AUX box & a some different connectors to adapt to the factory wiring.

thanks

I had a 7" android unit in my 2004 L322 and it worked well - integrated with the factory amp + apple carplay.

Wonder if the rear screens can still be used with these 10" units. Would certainly give the car a refresh as the UI in the 2008 is quite dated now.

From pictures, it looks the same platform (very shallow unit behind the screen) as the 10" unit I installed in the wife's car - being a VW integration is simple compared to LR - this unit is brilliant. Was hesitant about the no buttons but it's not an issue.

I think the factory Rear Seat Entertainment will be no longer useable with one of those widescreen units.

That's the case with the D3/RRS from 2005-2009 when fitting an aftermarket screen or head unit anyhow.

Even if the factory head unit is retained "in the loop"...

If you have factory RSE then the CarPlay / Android Auto kit that integrates with the factory screen is really the only option.

Hi based in UK, how can I obtain bits to do thus myself

Have just had my 08 L322 audio system upgraded and had Apple car play and Android integrated into the existing sytem without losing any of the previously installed features.
Done in Perth and there was an initial glitch associated with an issue with my touch screen (not the system they installed), but eventually they sorted my screen by putting a new touch screen on it and everything 100% working and hand's free phone access.
Origional sat nav and all origional features still operating, as well as having all "Car Play" features.
I had additional charging sockets installed by I think the basic integrated unit was $1600 all done and they reckon no problem upgrading any Range Rover/Land Rover.
Incredible amount of work with them stripping out almost the entire dash.
Everything else in the workshop being Ferrari's, Mercs, Maserati's and Beemers, and all his techies appear to be very on the ball as far as dealing with car audio and "difficult" cars.

I understand the units are Korean made and come out of Melbourne, so I expect there are installers in other states who can also nintegrate the units.
I used the "carstereoshop" 342 Beaufort st Perth, Jason proprietor. He may be able to advise who to contact in Melbourne, and they in turn may have installers in other states.

Hi there!

Could you please send me details of one of these units, sent to South Africa?

Thanks!

Wow! Wireless carplay in our old l322's is just what we only could dream about: thank you for hard work!
It's almost impossible to find any info about so deep electronic/music/satnav-processes of 2010-2012 generation.

Is it possible to get some kind of installation manual? Badly want to get one of whose kits, but living in Russia makes it difficulty to make setup in Melbourne
