Kayhan Android/Apple Carplay +Nav+ digital radio.

I ended up sending the unit back, did not get any useful support. They kept telling me that they will look into it without getting back to me with any solutions.

Yeah kayhan is like that, i had issues with my full replacement unit and they did stuff all to look into it.

Thanks for the update... will steer clear for now.

Definitely looks interesting and neat, but the Kayhan name on the box does cause some reservation.

surely it would have to be up to a half decent standard to be being resold by Walkinshaw!?

it is the same box they were/are selling on their website for $795 which seems to have the images wiped out now but google caches images so you can find them still.

the only difference will be that they added a walkinshaw logo for "performance" pricing.

their video of the install is still on youtube where you can see the same box "without the logo" being installed in 2020.

You would hope so, but not necessarily. Who would have thought VCM would sell a dirt munching otr to the entire country for at least a couple of years for everyone to break in their new VF's with! Still so dirty (pun sort of intended) on that.
I just can't believe Alpine are still to release a sucessor to the 902d. It's getting close to 2 years now with nothing! And I fear they'll make it floating which means I'm out.
Could luck to Alpine's competitors, as Alpine needs a b***h slap.

Only if Walkinshaw are not living off their name

If they provide technical support for their branded products, either directly or through contracting Kayhan, then it may be ok but I wouldn’t hold my breath that’s the case But from what I’ve read on these forums about Walkinshaw power upgrades, and failed motors, their adherence to ACL seems lacking in some cases

gonna be honest, i have almost no faith that it will be any good, but we can live in hope.

I think it’s also quite telling about the product that it’s for the VFI only and they have not taken the VFII Kayhan box option.

I have no idea how Keyhan can get the system to work without enabling the AUX on the VFII. Perhaps that’s why the product is limited to the VFI.

Also haven’t heard of any good feedback about the Keyhan units yet. The Envyous customs one would be a far safer option.
