I bought one of the factory look 6.5-7" touch screen Android 9 ones to my coupe a few months back.

From Aliexpress - one of the higher spec versions of this (faster processor, more ram, DSP):

It looks pretty much factory in the interior and you can adjust the backlight to the perfect shade of orange to match factory lighting.

Screen is OK, not particularly high resolution but looks fine.

Was plug and play except I had to tap a wire to get the factory amp to turn on (I have an aftermarket amp now).

I use it with an Android auto emulator app for Google maps and spotify / podcasts - works great and works with steering wheel controls.

Highly recommend them - great way to add modern tech to your car without looking out of place.
