Can you measure the outline of the monitor? TIA

I was considering a 9" screen because the 10.1 extends over the HVAC controls and the vent. It looks like the 9 does the same thing though. I'll have to go with the 7" I guess. I'm looking for a pure android unit though so I can change the UI.

No I doesn’t cover the vents. The picture might look like it

I was looking at purchasing this unit as well. How is it so far? I would primarily be using it with carplay 95% of the time. Do you use carplay or android auto on the unit? If so, how would you rate the response and general overall speed of menus when using it in this manner?

What are your general thoughts on this unit so far? I've seen a few youtube videos on this radio as well and it seems to work well enough.

It’s a great unit no issues so far, yes I use CarPlay all the time and it loads very fast it’s almost instant. I will do a video of it a little later.

Did your Element come with the upgraded stereo with amplifier? If so, have you replaced front door speakers?

Yes. I had to get the amp retention harness. I haven’t upgraded the speakers yet. I am still in the process of thinking what am I going to do with the element in terms of sound

Yo Doc, leave the guy alone he removes it by pushing the two release buttons as he stated. It seems to me that you like trying to make anyone feel bad about about trying to make themselves happy with the mods they’ve done with their cars. Just because you live in fear doesn’t mean everyone else does!

Did u read my reply or did u just find anyone to reply to?

I just installed this one a few days ago with maestro steering wheel control. Since I don’t have very much free time, the amplifier will be installed in the coming weeks I suppose. But for now radio is installed and cables are dangling on passenger footwell till I can get to amp install.

Finally remembered to take a pic today but had this installed last summer plus the Metra Axxess steering wheel control interface. Many thanks to the OP - Dr. Element, for initiating..

They won't operate until you acquire the back steering wheel controls. I didn't acquire it since I have a 2005 and it didn't come with any accessories.

Steering wheel control is an OPTION for the Boss BCPA9.
The stereo will work with or without them.
