Mercedes W203 replacement head unit

[alim8530]

Hi there

The audio system in my W203 is get a bit dated now, I have the Audio 20 system I believe in the facelifted W203

I am after a replacement headunit, I have read a 'double din' unit would fit and Alpine or Kenwood are pretty good

Ideally I would like to have Navigation and if possible DAB (although not sure how the aerial side of things would work) and phone connectivity for both audio and calls

I would be grateful on any pointers on which model to go?

Also can they be DIY installed or is it better I admit defeat and take it to a car audio place.

Many thanks

I guess if I'm honest I'm looking for something that is good quality and there seems to be mixed reviews rather than more consistently good review for Alpine units

In an ideal world something like the Android unit with Alpine quality would be great but they seem not to exist.

Any recommendations on what would be the hw best Alpine unit that would fit a facelift w203 and who does the best fitting kit with a nice fascia adapter, steering controls etc

Thanks
