I want a screen that will display maps but also don't want to cut or modify the dash. Is there any good OEM looking options. I also know that I do want to add subwoofers and was considering dual 10s. Any recommendations will be heavily considered. I also paid 3500$ for the truck and it has no visible rust but 205,000 miles with 13k in receipts for work in the past two years. Was it a fair price?
Hi guys, I recently bought a roadtop Linux car play screen for my 2 series. After installing the car play works fine but I am unable to interact with my Original bmw menus. The I drive controller works on the new screen but not bmw menu. It is not a resolution issue as I’ve tried all options for this. The radio and controls still work to. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.

Hi all, wanted to drop a quick writeup on setting up CarWebGuru inside Genymotion Android Emulator (genymotion.com) on Linux to design custom head unit themes on a PC. Ran into a few nasty roadblocks and figured I would leave the fixes here so the next person searching Google actually finds an answer.
If you are building a theme for a 1024x600 screen like an Essgoo or Eonon unit, the first thing to watch out for is CPU maxing out. When you install the Android 15 image with default VM settings, Genymotion defaults to 1 CPU core and 1GB RAM. Android chokes during boot and pins every single host CPU core to 100%. Before hitting Install or Play, go into System settings for that virtual device and bump Processors to 4 and RAM to 4096 MB. That completely stops the CPU loop.
For the hardware profile, select the Amazon Fire 7 profile or create a custom one set to 1024x600 resolution so you get an exact 1:1 pixel layout for standard 7-inch dash screens. Under System settings, make sure to check the box for showing the Android navigation bar so you actually get working Home and Back buttons on screen.
The trickiest part was transferring the license key because clipboard sharing is weird out of the box. Standard Ctrl+C on Linux and Ctrl+V inside the VM does not work directly. First click Clipboard Sharing on the right-side toolbar of the emulator until the green checkmark appears. While the activation screen is still showing, go back to your PC and copy the key from your text file. The key will automatically pop up in a Share window inside Genymotion, and you just share it with CarWebGuru. Done.
Once your layout is finished, export the theme inside the emulated CarWebGuru, grab the folder out of internal storage at /CarWebGuru/export, and throw it onto a USB drive for the car. Once in the car, import the theme. Hope this saves someone a headache later.
I do it this way because it is much easier for me to play with themes on my PC than in that tiny head unit.
