How to Install an Infotainment Radio in an Old Car on a Budget

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Car stereo

Video tutorial

The YouTuber in this video advises how to install a touch screen radio, enabling the use of Apple CarPlay or Android Auto in an older car, and importantly, to do it without spending more than the car's value. The first option suggested costs less than £60 and has all the necessary functions, being compatible with both systems.

Naturally, do not expect top-notch performance, but if you occasionally need to use the navigation and listen to the radio, it works perfectly. Alternatively, as the YouTuber suggests, simply search for 'Android Car Radio' to find millions of results at various prices; remember that you do not need high-end resources to run Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, just a decent screen.

If you add a Wi-Fi receiver, it significantly changes how you experience the car. It costs a bit more but is very useful. Unfortunately, it only works for Apple CarPlay; Android Auto requires a cable.
