Hello fellow Jeepers ,
I recently bought a new to me, 2013 Wrangler JK Sahara 2.8 CRD Manual, 2 door.
I like the vehicle a lot. This is by far the most exciting and interesting vehicle I have ever owned.
I live in a country where local support and aftermarket jeep parts are non-existent.
So the only support that I can get are forums like this.
I can only order from ebay and aliexpress.(amazon does not deliver to my country).
I want to buy an PX6 (6 core) android head-unit for the Sahara and install front trail + backup camera, and replace the factory 430 radio.
I prefer the stock look of 7 inch units like this one:
www.aliexpress.com
I want to keep my alpine sound system.
I have read almost all the posts related to Android headunits, but it seems I cannot find information I need.
So here are my questions:
- Can I use the AV port for front camera and switch inputs with FCAM software , or do I have to buy switching circuit like this ?

- Is the quality of the built-in mic in the headunit good, or do I have to use external mic?
- How fast does a unit like this start/boot ?
- How fast does the music start after a cold boot?
- Did anybody have problems after switching Front with Rear speaker outputs when making phone calls ?
- Quality of headunits Seicane vs Dasaita vs Joying vs….
- Are the 8 core units fast enough to run off road navigation apps like Locus PRO/Gaia ?
- Is there major noticeable sound quality degradation, when comparing android headunits to factory stereo when using the alpine sound system ?
I don't care about the fader problems explained in most posts,
Sorry for the bad English, thanks in advance.
