Built an OEM looking Android Auto system

Could you please share what screen did you used ? Thanks

I went for a smaller screen so i can still use the sdcard slot for the PI sd card. This screen is 5.5 inch amoled from waveshare, res of 1920x1080

When i watch movies or have navigation on the Pi 4 will get hot (espacially in hot summer sun). around 75 degrees. I drilled 3 holes of 12mm on the top of the case so the hot air can get out. It is now around 55/60 degrees.

Did any of you build a reverse camera connected to the PI and screen?

Nah, but plenty of other people have done this. Wouldn't be too hard. I don't see the point in a small hatchback where the back window is basically the back of the car.

I have had many sound systems in cars over the years, with subs in boot/under seat/ etc, now I have a D/D and 2 front door speakers. If I want far better sounds I use iPhone Or Android Red Magic Pro 8, into iFi Micro black label dap into wired earbuds, or occasionally bluetooth buds. The main reason for this, is a very noisy swirl pot in the wheel well, as the car is also a track car, and on long journeys, its ear buds, or ear plugs!.
