* **Operating System:** Linux-embedded system (Boots instantly in ~2-3 seconds with zero lag).

* **UI Themes:** Choose between multiple driving display styles (Classic, Sport, Comfort, and Technology tracking modes) with adjustable accent colorways.
* **On-Screen Telemetry:** Synchronizes directly via CAN-bus to accurately show mileage, real-time speed, engine oil/coolant temperatures, tire pressure status, fuel level metrics, and alert configurations.
* **Installation Setup:** Direct non-destructive swap layout. Uses vehicle-specific factory shape outlines and includes a plug-and-play wiring pass-through loom. No splicing or permanent modifications required.### Important Technical Considerations
* **Head-Up Display (HUD):** This specific variant does NOT support casting data or projection mapping to original factory dashboard HUD systems. If your vehicle has a HUD projector, it will go blank upon swapping.
* **Fiber Optic Loop:** If your factory vehicle plug features a two-wire orange or green fiber optic network block (MOST audio/data line), it MUST be carefully un-clipped from the original harness and slotted into the new pass-through connector to ensure central stereo functionality remains synced.
* **Mileage Calibration:** Real-time mileage auto-syncs through vehicle bus recognition, but system metric toggles (Miles/MPH vs Kilometers/KMH) can be easily calibrated via the integrated system setup menus using the steering wheel BC stalk controls.### Package Includes:
