I was excited to get this and attempt the install, but a few things are stopping me...Seems like there are several opportunities to introduce rattles from all those extra new plastic pieces and cords. Also, Weird cable dangling from the side. Also, you would lose the ability to use the 3.5mm AUX input in the center console (but not that big of a deal since phone will be plugged in). Lastly, can't control stuff on the screen using RTI, so a phone mount is still needed.

Also, VERY interested. Three questions.
1.) WIll this work in earlier 4th Gen GS Models. 2013?
2.) Will this work for Android phones?
3.) Is it possible to route the cable to the center armrest console?

Thanks!

Hmm.. I have a iPhone 7 Plus. If I have to have the phone out anyway to control the system, it may be a bit of an overkill for me. (2 screens)
