Nice write up timmy. I have been looking at this head unit, but the price seems way to high for me. I have located the manufacturer of the head unit and it seems that Insane charges a large increase in price. What Apps come included? Anything that seems revolutionary about the included insane audio apps? Or are they just run of the mill apps off of the play store? I have a quote for 100 units at around $300 a piece from the manufacturer.

Hmm, very interesting. I do know that there are some knock-off units on eBay that I presume are the same thing. For me, I decided to go this direction because it is a US based company that is actively developing for the unit and is releasing upgrades. So on one side, I wanted to support a company like this, and on the other, I want to get future updates.Originally Posted by ljvsnyder
In terms of what comes with it. Insane did build their own custom Navigation app that they include called Insane Navi, plus they include the bluetooth OBDII dongle and an already paid-for version of Torque. They include a radio app that is possibly from the Play store, but at least I knew when I received it that it was at least tested to work with the steering wheel controls and general operations of the Jeep. I'm not sure how much more customization they did of the OS compared to a standard Android install, but I do know that they recently released an upgrade to bring it to version 4.4.4. As part of the release, one of the things they did highlight was a new multi-band EQ and a speaker balance section.
The unit you found, does it include the CanBus controller to receive information from the ECU?
