I wouldn't buy one of those from ebay without playing with one in real life first. When I bought my car it had a Dynavin fitted, two weeks later I took it out and put an OEM 4:3 unit back in. The Dynavin was absolutely riddled with bugs and was driving me crazy.

Maybe this one is better. Maybe it's not. There's no way I'd gamble $500 just to find out.

100%

The Dynavin & Hualingan are too buggy in certain areas for my liking. Whats worse is that some people have bugs others don't without knowing why. For me the loss of the OBC control in the X5 is the nail in the coffin, at least on a 3 series you control it with the stalk.

Personally, I think these units try to be all things to all men, and do not succeed 100% with it all. It would be better if they made a simpler version which promised less but delivered 100% for a lower price.

Anyway, back OT, what is clear is that this unit is not 100% new, but the seller does claim that parts are up to date as opposed to his competitors which he says could be old. IDK how true that is though
