  Why risk it? Build your own with a raspberry pi and a touchscreen.

    This is what I want, but they make it very difficult to build something with parity unless you’re willing to sniff CANBUS codes one by one

      This would only be necessary for cars with climate control in the touchscreen right?

        Or if you have other features you don’t want to downgrade. For example, my 2016 Mazda has errors, oil status, and a bunch of other system info accessed through the headunit.

        But I’m a little data-obsessed right now, so I acknowledge I might be the weirdo

    Got a link to a good project of that type? I’ve been thinking about this recently.

      I haven’t done it myself, so I hesitate to recommend a specific project. But Carpi and OpenAuto are good places to start.

  Should be better since they usually don’t have an uplink capability. But if be real careful of any model that has Internet for any reason.
