Ok, I searched Braniac - I didn't know that was a brand name or something? I found this YouTube video which gives me some ideas.

I like this, I'm gonna have to look into it. Give us an idea on the cost? Like I said, I've got a lot of research to do.


<edit> Braniac tablet install kit is $299. Now I got more to look into. Haven't done anything new to the install in my Z in a coupla years, my older Pioneer touchscreen is getting tempermental, so this sounds like the perfect upgrade. Maybe for Christmas? I had planned on trying to get an 85" TV, but I dunno... we shall see...

I mean, 85” TVs are cool too. I also went with the MK1.7 electronics kit for $199 but it makes the whole thing very plug and play. Also factor in the cost of the tablet itself. It really gives the interior a much needed update. Also, if you can use your phone as a hot spot it adds to the functionality of the tablet.

Cost Comparison to an decent Android Double Din unit with backup camera.
$450 2DIN 10"
$ 60 Backup camera
$ 30 Steering control unit
=$540
Fully functional head unit with backup camera.

$300 Base kit
$200 Tablet
$200 MK1.7
$12 Application
$120 Backup camera and over mirror display.
$100 RcJoyCon CPJexc – CAN IBUS Steering Wheel Controls Car PC USB Interface for steering wheel control and hrs to learn to program.
=$932
It's a bit difficult to get running and it's not designed for a car but more rigged to get it just working enough for using in a car. It does look very sleek though.
