If you're referring to doing a CCC to CIC retrofit, I'm afraid I'm not an expert in that area.

The Avin unit has bluetooth already integrated into it, you don't need to buy a new navi.

Depends how much of an audiophile you are. I have my android unit hooked up via aux and bluetooth, sounds perfectly fine with premium audio.

Same. I think it sounds perfectly alright. I spend more time listening to the V8 symphony anyway.

I got an android unit from aliexpress
I noticed the audio via bluetooth does suck- however if u use a carplay dongle or directly load music to it and play it, the audio is fine which makes me believe tte BT receiver inside these boxes suck.

Hope that helps
