Do you have a Mercedes Sprinter van and would like to fit an Android Headunit with a CD/DVD player with physical buttons and a volume control knob?
The popular Mercedes Sprinter van has a factory-installed radio, which can become broken and uneconomical to repair or outdated. The android Headunit reviewed here covers MB Sprinters from 2006 and is an ideal replacement for those factory units.
Keep the factory options.
You want to keep the steering wheel controls and add a reversing camera and DAB radio option. These are all available to Android headunits, and getting the right one for the Sprinter is important for the factory features to continue functioning.
Easy option
The easiest way to install an Android headunit to the Sprinter, keep the factory features, and remove the need for a fascia adaptor is to install a custom-fit Android headunit. The important CAN bus adaptor is included and ensures the communication between the van and headunit continues to flow. This Sprinter android Headunit has factory-style connectors making the electrical installation a plug-and-play job. You also get a proper physical fit without the need for universal adaptors. This makes the whole job much tidier and looks professional, even if you fit it yourself.
Our Recommendation
Having a brand name gives peace of mind. Built-in CD/DVD can be useful. A physical volume control is necessary if there are no steering wheel controls. A volume control knob is still useful for the passenger. DAB, Reversing camera, and even TPMS are all available. But there is no point having all this, only to find it is slow to use, sluggish and lags. You need to pick the right Android headunit for a Sprinte,r and this Erisin model for Sprinter is the one. It covers all the bases and includes a PX5 OctaCore processor and 4 GB RAM, making it a fast and capable Android headunit for the Sprinter Van (and its derivatives).
