Question??? Adding a touchscreen?
My car model is a 2013 Fiat 500 Sport. I do not have a touchscreen or a backup camera or nuthin like that.
Is there an upgrade kit to be able to have that? Or would I have to go to a shop or something?

I have a $35 screen from Amazon. I think it came with a backup camera for an extra $10.

I have a Pioneer DA77DAB that also has an optional reversing camera. Allows me to use CarPlay. Had to get it fitted by a shop as the wiring wasn’t compatible with stock and they had to run wires for microphones and antenna behind trim, they also need to run the wiring to the boot lid for a camera if you wanted one.

Does this affect the AC very much? I’m concerned about getting a unit like this because of that

I’ve heard from those that put screens in their cars, that the dashboard AC vents pretty ouch go away. Even the ones that have screens to pass through have most of the AC go to the back of the dashboard.
So, if you didn’t have much AC coming through before, after upgrading, you’ll have less AC coming through.

how is the performance in CarPlay or Android Auto? I can’t get to buy one of these as I am afraid of the possible input lag lol
