New Head unit
Not sure if anyone has tried this before, but I'm trying to create a touchscreen headunit to replace the factory one. I want to do this by using a raspberry pi because while I want the media center, I also would like telemetry integration through OBD-II and other sensors and interact through a touchscreen to control it all.
Any ideas?

Yes it does, but I'm not sure how to plug the Bose system in the car straight into it, mainly because I'm not sure how the plugs that plug into the factory head unit are wired up. Remember, I'm going for the full package, I'm not going to route it through an aftermarket HU, I want the Pi to be the HU.

Is the radio pinout maybe in the service manual?

I was looking to see two things. 1) if someone has done something like this before, and 2) if anyone had ideas of how to convert the speaker plugs. The service manual is a good place to start with that. I have one I just haven't had time to look at it yet. Thanks guys.
