Comment on Part 2 of car Raspberry pi 4 GPS project

I was considering something similar for my Volvo 940 about around 2010. The idea was that I’d install a touch screen as an infotainment system where I could see stuff like OBD2 data and navigation.
While not having a functioning speedometer for a little bit (later fixed), I used my phone to see the GPS speed with the screen flipped so I could get the speed on the windshield like a HUD in some modern cars.
It annoys me that I never went through with it, because so much stuff of what I’d drawn up became standard for “fancy” cars later.

I’m currently doing this to a Citroën C5 III (2015). The hdd in the old infotainment system broke, so I had a reason to do it, and adding a few features couldn’t hurt.
It’s a huge pain to get to find information about anything in this car and to get anything to work properly, but I hope it’ll be worth it.
