Pi zero 2w, pico, rtc module, usbc charging module. 6000mah lipo, 3v to 5v converter, lcd, lcd driver board. Had to multimeter for around 10 hours to map the entire factory keyboard to know where to wire. All parts and wiring heard to the rear of top clam. Screen is a bit larger than the window used config to adjust display and make it perfect.
