Hi all,
I am planning to put a double deck Carplay that would mirror an iphone/android screen with Gps,Youtube etc. and I also want to put a backup camera so it should be able to display that as well.
Also, would there be one that's compatible with our buttons on the wheel? Would hate to lose them...
I have a 1995 Supercharged Riviera
Please let me know if anyone has any experience with what would fit and which specific model to go for?

There is not much room in the dash of our cars so an mvh ( media video head unit) has a shallow chassis and is a great choice. You can look on crutchfield.com for an education on brand and features. I included a link to the steering wheel control FM modulated unit which works great in both of my cars. Also you want a video bypass and don't forget a dash kit, wire harness and antenna adapter.

Can you update the link to the stereo install kit you meant to link? I'm going to be doing an install soon.

I don't think there's a dash kit for a riv. My car does not have one. Crutchfield will list all the accessories you're going to need. Steering wheel controls are universal kit AWSC steering wheel controls. should pull up the results. They work fine on both my cars.

Thanks for the link, I'm guessing this will get the controls on the wheel that pertain to the stereo, but not for the HVAC system (temp)

I don't remember if it does the HVAC. I just put it on auto and it regulates itself.
