Will there ever be such a thing? I know that you can use your phone on a mount, but having your phone integrated into your dash screen, steering wheel buttons, etc. Is a big convenience and I also think safer.

Would a drop in replacement be possible? Or would a whole new app need to be developed and integrated into every car manufacturer?

This is one google app that I still heavily rely on, unfortunately. I'm sure they are harvesting everything about me as I drive.

For most common vehicles there exists at least one third party bezel that you can install to get a standard DIN mount. Then you can install a third party device into that.

Well shit thats great. If tesla ia doing it then surly compatability must be required by law otherwise no way in hell they would do it.

It's likely a third party that's doing it, not feels themselves.
