Yes cutting the cig lighter is the way to do it. The hard wire you are referring to that you lost was the backup camera wire… best imo is to take it to an auto sound place, they’ll do it in less than an hour. I had them add a rocker switch to toggle on and off. Route cable to the speaker grill on top… good luck
You can cut the cord but you need to wire and fuse it on a dedicated circuit. You will need to either tap in at the fuse box or run from the battery. The easiest way is an add a fuse in the box.
definitely not a good option if he is using the cigarette lighter for a heavy draw item. But it can easily handle the road top and another low draw item
What are you using the 45w charger for?

Does the 2008/9 have aux input? if so, you should be able to connect the RT unit to the Aux for audio...
Yes, RT 8.9" is discontinued, likely a new model coming...m/dp/B0CKXF3RST?psc=1&ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_product_details_1Hi all, trying to get some additional information on the units. Sam as @Sameer 's comment, can't seem to find these listed anymore? All I can find on their website are the modules that are used to integrate into the factory unit. It seems like the prior Roadmap units have dried up on amazon
Also, curious to know if anyone is integrating these with @nakman 's Gamiviti accessory mount? I've got Bulletproof Mounting arms but can't determine what size ball I need to mount the screen to the arm. Haven't found conclusive answers on the Gamiviti thread yet either.

The EC Off-road USBs are at best going to probably only work at 2.5w (500ma@5v). Modern phones need a lot more power than that, or at least you are going to want more power for any decent charge rate. You really want a modern USB output that can do PD (usb-c) and/or a USB A port that will do...

OBD Fusion on Android Auto is just as lame. I haven't tried running it as a separate device. I use it primarily for music and maps.
I figured it was. Really what I want is a cartoon Android tablet that’s low profile/wide
I would make sure your model is compatible. When I contacted them, they needed to see what version you had, so they can give you the right firmware, which tells me they aren't exactly the same on the inside, even though they all are considered the 8.9" model. Typical Chinese product. They will update and change stuff without actually changing the advertised model that is being sold to the public.
