I have updated three and am in the process of updating a fourth one. At last two of mine(both 88s) will have the single DIN pop up screen with Bluetooth and GPS plus a rear camera.

Drop me an email or PM if you want details.

Just curious to know what single din pop up screen unit you are using Nelson?

I have a Kenwood7" pop up screen installed in an 88 Mera that is my prime show car. I will be happy to supply the model number if you wish, but it is several years old and likely no longer in production. The other 88 will get a Pyle pop up head unit and I should be ordering it this weekend. I also have a rear camera connected to the head unit and can use it as a rear view mirror during the day or night.







These are not the best photos but will give you an idea how the pop up screen looks in a modern Mera interior.

BTW, the Pyle head unit will go in a stock interior 88 Mera that I am restoring.

Yes it is and I added the NAV module (KNA G510) as well as a full time rear view camera.

I have been planning on doing that as an additional rear view for years now in my Countach replica but never found a quality reasonably priced single din flip out screen.

I have been very happy with this head unit and have had it for a number of years and more than 20,000 miles of use on the road. I plan to purchase a much less expensive Power Acoustik PDN-726B flip out screen and see how well this works in my project car. It has BT as well as a NAV system included plus a Fiero slot adapter and wiring harness for about $200. For this price it is not much of a risk to see how well it works.

I checked out this unit and agree that it seems like a good buy for the price. However, I am an Apple user and it appears it is not compatible with IOS only Android.
