Also, has anyone been able to pop the trunk, roll windows up and down, or alter AC systems through canbus? Thinking about running a tablet in the center with the realdash software with a custom template made only for the above car control functions.

Thanks in advance,
Very nice. I've not seen that before.

You might find this project interesting:

This guy used an Arduino to talk to the canbus and wrote his own Android app to talk to that and control the HVAC.

I'm looking to do something similar myself.

The HVAC won't work on the base model unless you swap out the control unit because the base model one doesn't have canbus control.
