I finally found a solution for Apple Carplay installation that i can live with, i just bought a rear view camera system from Aliexpress.
It is meant to be strapped on your original rear view mirror, i could not live with that as it does not look very good.
So i took out the screen and forward facing camera, and i built a new housing that fits the original rear view mirror mount and replaced the original with this solution.
So now i have backup camera and front view camera that always records when out driving.
It also have a park monitoring function, so it will start recording if someone bumps into my car when parked at a parking lot.

While waiting for parts for the CarPlay project i am trying to get the perfect finish for my interior. I am using Hydro paint, looks pretty real i think 😊
More options than the vinyl wrap, as you can adjust the base color.

Everything is working stable and connects wireless to the phone as soon as i am in BT range, so i have found the way to make it stable. But it means i had to go to someone to get the main unit produced. I realized i did not have time or possibility to produce this in bigger numbers. So the main unit is now a proper sytem that can be put into any car with 12v system, only issue for a vintage car is that you need a screen somewhere.
All functions are available through the pad in the picture, so no need for a touch screen.
I have experimented with a screen on my player, but i am waiting for a new and better option. The rearview mirror in the R129 has a lot of space inside so you can actually put a screen behind a mirror glass plate and have it all hidden in the mirror.
So what solution would be preferred ? ,the player solution will most likely add $2-400 if you do not have the BT-2 unit already. The CarPlay unit it self will probably be around $400 with all features but without any screen. This of course depends on how many orders i get. And a simple screen for use in a player or in the mirror would not be more than $20-50
The screen only needs hdmi or standard composite input.
