Default CarPlay retrofit on CGT?

It would be nice to play some music on longer drives, I wonder if there’s an easy way to integrate it to the car? An updated unit that would replace the CD player in the lower dash perhaps?

I hear you but struggle thinking of where the screen could go? Sure the "brains" can go under the center console but the display is kind o the point..

I go with airpods + phone. There's always a windshield suction mount if you need the screen

I think I will just use the phone when I need the screen, really I just want integration of audio functions like playing music, calling, etc.
