Double Din GPS unit for Discovery 3

Do you mean one like this . ( except for a Disco - not Ranger )
It will take any form of maps you put into the sd card

Mine works great and also can switch between Igo or Hemma maps

Hi Richard

I had that setup before and found the screen too small for offroad mapping and trip plotting
So only use the standard road navigator part of the head unit and all its other good features you mentioned but run my offroad maps (Hema) on a mounted Ipad. I find the larger tablet format screen much better to work off, I know others are happy with the double din setups but just floating the idea as an alternative option to consider.

Having a seperate tablet is also useful for your internet and email etc as well

Purchased a Parrot Asteroid and had it fitted to my 79 series, to date found it quite good, with all the features you need, including probably the best hands free system I have used to date without a doubt.
It has ozi + hema maps installed with Eozi android as well ( for dummies like me ) and that combination works very well.
System also has a remote GPS thingy which hides under dash mat and I get a great signal at all times.
This system also has provision for a reverse camera to be plugged in and also my mobile broadband sits in the glove box permanently plugged in for all my internet requirements.
Cost wise it was very reasonable compared to a lot of others and settled on this unit after about 3 months of looking around.
It does have a small reflection issue but think this may not cause any grief as your "din" slot would probably be higher.
There also isn't any "buttons" at all on this unit but with a removable side plate the theft issue is minimal.
(without buttons it looks like a small dvd screen)

Thank you guys for the feedback. Both units look great especially the parrot system. I have had 2 parrot Bluetooths units in the past and have been faultless. I didn't realise they done a double din unit also. I will definately order one. Any suggestions on who would be the best priced place to purchase the maps from. I've been quoted $799 for the parrot double din unit here in Canberra, but they don't sell the map sd cards.
