Default Bluepower head unit

Hi folks, just had my v50 pass its MOT so looking to invest in making it more enjoyable to ride in. Currently getting by with a bluetooth FM transmitter which is better than nothing but would really like the sound quality of proper bluetooth and the touchscreen of the Bluepower unit to bring my car into the current decade.

Also up for any alternatives. Cheers.

From my own experience and what I have read elsewhere Bluepower don’t seem to be responding to emails anymore... I’ve been trying to get my defective BLP-990A replaced for over a month now and had no replies from them

I wanted to send this to you as private message, but it seems I am not allowed to do so yet.

Hello there!

I just joined this club, but had the same consideration as you. However after reading up on it I decided not to buy the unit. It is far too expensive for an outdated equipment.

Instead I bought one of these: Link to DVR

It has dual camera recording, reverse camera, gps, FM transmitter and since it's android you can add new applications to it.

You should take a look at these type of dashboard units. there are many available, with different designs.
