Is there someone that changed there radio for a tesla style tablet ???
Looking for some reviews
 
I would hate to see the interface needed to make something like that work
 
If i look on youtube the show instalment with looks very easy and
People say plug and play no interface needed i think ???
 
Looks like a cool Idea.  I found the Kirinavi universal Tesla style vertical 10.1" screen that is Android based.  Its a radio back that looks like it would slide in where your head unit mounts. Android  based so I like that  >:D

 
I am looking at purchasing one myself. I just emailed the customer support to see if they have any other trims besides the wood paneling. I'm not sure how the wood would look with the plastic dash. Anyone have an opinion?

Also, just bought my Avy yesterday. So excited!

:welcome: to the site Danielgmpolk

I think this would be a cool fit but I'm not too sure the fitmen ???  Let us know what they say (y)
 
Has anyone done this yet?


I just bought my AVY last week and am interested in upgrading to this.
 
Interesting. There’s a few things I noticed that don’t look right, but can’t confirm because it’s not in front of me.
That price point seems extremely low for what you’re getting.
 
The follow-up reviews on the 12.1" installs have been terrible.

Unless your HVAC and Radio are broken you'd be in a better spot if you got a new HU with Bluetooth and controlled from your phone.
 
In the videos I've watched on Youtube, the 12.1 Tablet HU seems to be a bit sluggish in performance.
 
12" is just to huge, this one fit the dash just fine for my needs...

Every install or find any reviews of the tesla style? Looking for a LT with Bose no navigation. Does it support wireless android and carplay?
 
I installed a 10” Android unit. I’m pretty happy with it. I like the size doesn’t cover the vents or the hvac and doesn’t stick up too far. I had to cut the bezel some to get it to sit flush. I would have liked to go bigger but didn’t want to block anything and wanted not to look out of place. 340D5793-E155-4C5E-B762-0F9053D6CAF6.jpegA200237E-50AF-4D78-AB40-7E0D2AB9E526.jpeg
 
I am looking at the unit that is either 12.1" or 13" from Phoenix Automotive. There is also one on Amazon from CUSP. Anyone tried these?

Thanks
