Audio replacement

[Digs1972]

Morning, my A3 have the Audi Chorus audio unit and I'm thinking of replacing it.  I think the sound is very good but its functionality lets it down, FM only and music is only via the AUX connection which means no / difficulty changing music whilst driving (me anyway) and no sat nav.

seen the original Audi sat nav units on eBay which is an option or the after market models , anyone done this before ? Is it easy to do? I like the idea of Apple car play but it's not essential , DAB, iTunes library control and sat nav is my preference.

 

cheers in advance

Here's another option I found when I was considering such a change. In the end I was too lazy to do anything.

The unit Cliff posted looks good, has anyone done this? My unit is a standard  BOSE cd player front feed, not sure how it would fit such a larger item in such a small area...ba dum tish.

I like the Pioneer DA-120.

It has all the features that I need. Google maps becomes Sat Nav.  Siri request button.  The only problem I find is the voice recognition has trouble recognising certain phonebook entries when requesting numbers to call.

Will have to have a good look at it, so much to spend on the car I don't know where to start. Alloy refurb, performance mods, stereo ro damn good valet!
