Yeah and at this price + eBay discount almost can’t go wrong for $200 thinking I’m going to roll the dice, only thing is if it has the loom for the factory camera but I’ve seen it’s not hard to convert the camera to a RCA plug if neededas the OP I 100% guarantee it is android 10. These chips are designed around it. More than 8 months on and still loving the head unit.
Am I right with that the CANBUS module is really just for those factory settings that comes with the mylink?I looked at that ebay link more closely - I wouldnt get it without confirming it comes with the canbus module. It is not listed in the list of inclusions.

Have seen some people suggest that you just make sure your settings are how you want them before removing the mylink and it should be fine?
Yeah sounds like that’s something that’s needed then.The canbus decoder does normally allow you to set the vehicle settings but in modern vehicles the infotainment unit(mylink) is used for all of the audible alerts like indicator sounds, park assist sounds, warning chimes.
The canbus decoder restores these sounds on aftermarket units.
Most of the time they just add a little speaker that goes behind the unit.
The canbus decoder also allows the steering wheel buttons to operate the headunit.
It also controls the power state of the unit.
So it is important to make sure it comes with a canbus decoder for the vehicle you are installing the aftermarket unit into.
