I bought this to replace my existing media module

I bought this to replace my existing media system in my 2016 Opel Insignia. Although it had carplay, it didn't have android. The product arrived well packaged. There was a booklet which basically was a pictorial description of the module, connections and wiring. No instructions on installing or set up at all. With some savvy it looks reasonable obvious. However, I had to refer to the help desk. My contact was Mike. Fantastic. Very helpful, responded quickly and was very patient with my dumb questions. The module was supposed to support the reversing camera. After 2-3 days of support everyone finally gave up and I was sent a new reversing camera.I have also had to modify the housing unit that the screen fits into. The angle in the dashboard was perfect to catch the upward screen reflection, which made it difficult to see the screen clearly. When the cars position was under the mid day sun, it was literally blinding until the road direction changed. I have tilted the screen about 10 degrees forward and is now perfect. It does look good and the quality of the screen is very good (although I upgraded on most things, including the screen spec.). To summarise, the product is very good, looks great, but in original form for my car, doesn't work well, because of screen/sun reflections. I bought it specifically to work with the reversing camera, but it didn't. No instructions at all so you either have to guess, use the help desk, or watch YouTube. Would I recommend it, no I don't think so. If your car is older and has no carplay or android the benefits are probably worth the effort. But be warned, in my experience this is not plug and play. For me, I'd have been better buying a satnav, probably a lot cheaper and it would have given me the satnav upgrades missing from Opel/Vauxhall.
