this is the only reason I would even bother to change out my headunit.

a external option to mount to car like a navigation unit would be ideal.

but yeah this thing rocks.

this is not sony specific, mirrorlink is a technology feature that will be compatible for most phones.

I was about to do a thread like this but my star would have been the Pioneer avic z140bh. I was very close to purchasing but now, I am thinking if I can really live with both screens showing navigation, one above the other.

I also looked at the sony, it had nice features but could not send navigation to an external monitor.

It would b nice if it was just a portable 7 inch screen u can mount or temporarily mount on top of screen.

Anything to avoid having to chop up the dash.

thats pretty cool. if i did a head unit change-out id probably go this route with something like this so it integrates fully with the phone. i saw the stuff Ford has in their cars and got a little jealous..
