Polaris Premium 10-inch Android Head Unit with Apple CarPlay & Android Auto
If you already have your vehicle-specific fascia and wiring sorted, there’s no need to buy another complete installation kit. This Polaris Premium 10-inch Android Head Unit is supplied as the head unit only, giving you the core hardware for a custom installation or an existing setup that needs an upgrade.
The unit combines wired and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto with a 10-inch display, Android OS, 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage. You also get Bluetooth 5.0, dual-band Wi-Fi, 4G SIM capability and GPS support for compatible navigation apps.
It’s also set up with plenty of options for audio and cameras. There are four AHD and two CVBS camera inputs, three pairs of RCA pre-outs, a MOSFET Class AB amplifier and a 13-band graphic EQ. So if you're building a more involved touring or custom setup, there’s room to configure the system around your needs.
Please Check Before Ordering
This is for the 10-inch head unit only.
It does not include a vehicle-specific fascia, vehicle-specific wiring harness, steering wheel control interface or reverse camera.
The supplied head unit includes a standard ISO harness and the accessories listed below. If you're building a complete vehicle-specific installation, you'll need to source the appropriate fascia and wiring components separately.
Important: Not every trapezoid fascia is designed for a 10.1-inch screen. Many trapezoid fascias are designed for 9-inch screens, while some are designed for 10.1-inch screens. Please confirm which size your fascia is designed for before purchasing.
