Hi guys...

I'm driving Ford Focus TDCI. Recently all new cars have an android Head Unit with GPS navigation + Waze capability.

I wish to have those features as well in my car. But I am seriously lacking in terms of knowledge when it comes to HU.


What I want is a Head Unit with touchscreen, android and can use GPS / Waze as well (I travel often so GPS capability is a must have features for me). And then there's music. I WILL ALWAYS listen to music from CDs every time I drive. Having a SD card features would be a whole lot better since I can put in more songs in it.



What should I do now lol?

Reading above about "kenwood high end DDX9017S HU" gave me a bit headache. But seems interesting. If I buy it and it can't fit properly into my dashboard... what is the usual remedy the shop person will do?

No experience in this so that is why I'm asking.



Budget?

No definite budget as of now. I don't even know how much people usually spend to upgrade their Head unit. But I think I can adjust my budget accordingly to suggestion here.


Thanks guys.


*Edit: I live in Taiping, Perak. So closest big town area to me is Penang. Would be nice if you guys can recommend me shops around Taiping, Parit Buntar or straight away Penang.

**Edit 2 : Found the Kenwood DDX9017S HU the guys above are talking about in Lazada. Damm that thing costs RM 2688.00!! Well at least I got a figure to based my budget on.

How much are you willing to invest
*
After reading for a while about ICE from all related thread in this forum... I'm changing my question a bit.


I owned an Edifier S350DB as my main speakers for my PC / music listening setup in my room.



Would it cost a lot if I want to have a level of sound quality that is at least equivalent to Edifier S350DB in my car?


To be exact... can I have such sound for less than Rm 2,000? And this includes the cost for Headunit as well.


Thanks.


*Willing to upgrade my budget to RM 3,000.
