Advice needed on Android HU
#3
Hi mate, I'll try to answer as many questions as I can but you may need others to get all of the answers
I have the B5754 from icebox which in my opinion is a fantastic HU, but I now see that the V5754 is going to become the more popular due to it running Android 8. I had DAB before but no Bluetooth hence why I opted for an aftermarket unit, so I only had DAB to lose, but you would lose the factory Bluetooth as well. My Bluetooth works really well, you can still use the steering wheel buttons to answer/call so it wouldn't be that much different to factory, I've also had no issues with sound quality and that's without using the plug in mic.
Right now for the reverse sensors and camera, I have both because as you say the GTC rear view is awful. I bought some Dolphin parking sensors, good value, easy to fit and the sensors are available in loads of colours so you shouldn't have a problem with colour.

This is the reverse camera I ordered which was the second one as the first was non adjustable and not as good picture quality.

There are cameras available that fit into the number plate light slot, but if you were thinking of upgrading them to LED units, you can't have both
As for the factory USB, the cables from the S160 are no longer available so you would lose that one, but there are 2 slots at the rear of the unit plus a micro SD card slot up front.
I hope I've helped you with a few things and I'm sure others will give advice.
Have a look through my progress thread as there are plenty of pictures showing the things you're interested in.
