I'll be getting back to my install shortly, will provide updates.
 
I put a generic android head unit in my kids Jeep Renegade, and it has its quirks.. but I can totally live with it, so would love to see if there was a decent option for the LX. I have a Grom. It’s fine but the hardware is almost useless for running modern Android apps, so it’s only good for CarPlay of low power apps.
Grom seems like a fail-safe solution even for me. I have a Teyes (still in the box) — I originally wanted it for the better 360 camera and improved display and hardware for additional apps (although it's questionable whether anything can actually be installed there). But I'm a bit concerned about the installation issues and also the ridiculous color mismatch, where the front panel has a completely different color than the rest of the original dashboard.

Those were my concerns as well. Was hoping to see one installed. Between the mismatch and maybe the fact that the overlay covers the screen partially? Seems like it may look too bad to be usable. My other option is to do the screen refresh on the OEM screen to at least get fix my fading display screen.

If you mean that the original frame around the display covers the edge where information is still displayed (which results in, for example, only part of the button being visible because of the frame), that might be something we could address. EXTDUDE mentioned here that they will try to play around with the display resolution settings, or they might release an update (maybe they already have). That’s a problem that can be easily solved with software.


What really bothers me is the fact that the TEYES panel color is just dark grey. Such a stupid thing. All the LX models have polished aluminum, and they make a dark grey plastic that just stands out. Maybe it can be solved with a film, but it will be a completely unnecessary hassle. See below.

Disappointed to say I might be reaching the end of this expensive experiment. I can't seem to get any sort of support from Teyes. Couldn't get a response on Whatsapp at all last week, this week I've gotten one dismissive response.

My head unit seems to be perfectly functional (powers up, connects to wifi etc), but has no audio output and I have no HVAC controls and the HVAC panel is nearly dead (dim light, no actual working buttons/controls). I've tried multiple CAN bus settings. I've provided this data, pictures and video to Teyes.

My suggestion to anyone considering Teyes is to stay away unless you have money and patience to spare. 😿

Not yet. Still trying to work with Teyes support. If anyone from Teyes sees this thread, look into zendesk or similar software. WhatsApp is not a support tool.
