There are no buttons or knobs, what the heck?

Image

A USB port?

An Aux Input jack?

Back up camera, turns on when the car is in reverse

Image

Hmmmm dash cam always recording when the car is on.

Image

Listening to tunes on my hard drive. Secret revealed. Its a CarPC with a multi touch capacitance 7" monitor. All steering controls work the same as for the factory radio. So I changed the skin to show the orange color that matches the rest of the gauges and displays on the dash. It looks so much better now. The screenshots below show the new skin,

Image

Screenshot of Start-up screen

Image

Screenshot of one main Centrafuse (software front end) screen. The actual color of the screen is bright and colorful like this. Its hard to take a good picture of it. Use touch screen to control everything or steering wheel buttons that work the same as with the factory radio. At the bottom is the time and Bluetooth signal strength. At the top is what's playing.

Image

Sirius XM

Image

AM/FM HD radio

Image

Bluetooth phone calls, operated from touch screen or steering wheel controls

Image

Garmin Mobile PC with 2013 maps

Image

DVD player in glove box, I'm now watching "There's Something About Mary"

The nice thing about it is as new technology comes out, it is easy to add to it or install new programs.

Looks awesome. I like the infotainment system there.

And you got out there in this weather and cleaned your car, so extra respect due there.
