I have a 2016 with "base" radio system (you know, the pathetic calculator screen).
I want to upgrade to a larger screen and my biggest requirement is that I be able to run Waze while the car is moving.
I won't say I don't care what the cost is, but I'm not afraid to spend money if it's necessary.
I don't have a GPS fin or egg on the car so I'm not interested in factory style or vehicle originated navigation. The phone's we carry are way better and waze or google maps are much better navigation applications/networks (in my opinion) than any other I've seen.
I have a Samsung so android auto seems to be the ticket (although my work phone is an iphone).
Would something like the phoenix screen and "mirroring" be the best/better option? I've read all the horror stories about the Phoenix style screens (the bootup times, the glare, etc).
I'm okay with either an 8" factory looking screen and bezel or the big Tesla style.
So what's the best option? Hellhorse (would prefer NOT to deal with them, I haven't had very good customer service with them), Navos? Phoenix audio?
In the end I want a bigger screen and I want to be able to run waze off my phone's GPS and internet connectivity.
Thanks for your help/suggestions.
