For months I've been trying to find a way to upgrade my stereo to work with my phone (android htc one).
There's the cheap I simple connect solution like I simple tranzit blu or I simple connect.
There's a new head unit like a pioneer or jvc DVD unit with mirror link. But the only install kit I can find is the awful looking metra 99 kit. This has stopped me every time.
Dont think you are really gonna find an option better than the metra unless you can find someone to do a completely custom dash.
And I just found on ebay what appears to be oem head units with DVD players and nav for 07 dual zone accords.
If it is not from honda, then it is one that has a ton of mixed reviews. most of the review problems seem to pertain to the language issue because it is a foreign unit.

Is there a way to get the frame like the oem version but plug in a new double din unit?
got enough money, time, or skill and there is a way. you could build a brand new dash kit and relocate the factory one so that you retain all of the factory controls. Are there other install kits beside metra?
Havent seen any.
Does anyone know anything about the quality of the eBay authorized reseller items?

Looks pretty legit, not like the knock off ones, but I dont know much about that model.

And I get why DVD player from a touchscreen and capabilities mode but don't get the rules around watching a DVD. Can the player be hooked up with a screen in the back and provide movie watching for my son while we drive? yes it is legal as long as the driver cannot see the screen that is playing.

Thanks for your help. It starts so simply.
