We need to fill in the blank hole in our new MH with a Radio Double Din Type as it didnt come with one.
I have looked at Pioneer, Alpine, & Kenwood, Head units, some with CD player, and some with Apple Car Play. Most of these are priced around the 400 to 500 although some cost much more.
Ideally, we would like to have a decent Radio/Cd Playing head unit that we can plug our Smart Phone into and use that as a GPS/Sat Nav unit rather, than have a built in sat nav as some do. But willing to listen to all that have built in Sat Navs, as long as they have free lifetime Map Updates.
We also want to connect our 21 inch Avtex TV to the head unit If Possible, I have read that some have done this, but very confused as to how to achieve this as the TV only has a stereo head phone 3.5 mm output which I am told cannot be connected to radio head units as " only accept RCA Connectors" not 3.5MM jack plugs?
So need advice please on what head unit suits you, and if have connected you Avtex TV through your head units how has this been done.
Many Thanks for any help on this.
