Default I have had both

I have had both, the difference is, the V1 you have to plug in to use Apple Car Play or Android Auto. The V2 you don't and it has built in Navigation.

I have the complete V1 setup with Maestro and an amp if you are interested in buying it.

I had the original HDHU14+ in my 16 SGS, I loved it! I now have the V2 in my 23 RGS and love it as well, the wireless carplay is amazing, the larger screen is nice as well, I don't know that I can say I would spend the money on it again if I had it to do over again...

like scott_0 i originally had aHDHU14+ which was a blessing after the OEM 6.5GT
however I then upgraded to the HDHU.14si with programmable MAESTRO module. Game changer! full joystick control when using AA/CarPlay. Technically you USB for AA/CarPlay but I run a great wifi module and so the chord is cut

....can't speak for the V2, got no need for it yet

I went with the V2 on my 2016 RGU last month. No regrets. Phone and Sena hook up to it flawlessly. Still running stock speakers for now, but it sounds 100% better.
