Finished installing the CarPlay screen. Got a shorter usbc cord with right angle to replace the stock adapter. Was using 5v 3a out from the dumb cig plug supplied, but they didn’t implement any high amp usbc inside the CarPlay screen, so it wouldn’t power up on the PD port as it wasn’t negotiating the high amp protocol. I got a usbc dongle off of Amazon to implement the high amp mode. It powered right up on 5v setting.
Drill out a couple more holes on the mount to match the non standard bracket connection on the screen, mounted up the 20mm ball, and it’s a solid hard mount without the tablet adapter arms.
I did have the screen pop out last time I was off road, so this update to the mount was necessary.
Here’s a pic of the plate setup.
