    I would like to replace my infotainment system with an apple carplay/Android Auto.
    Does anyone have one installed?
    I have a 2012 V.
    Thanks

    Will that get in the way of seeing the road, mounted where you're suggesting (I have no idea of what your dash looks like).
    Even so, it's not a huge gamble.

    Plenty of room on a Prius v without disrupting any forward view. Of course you are unlikely to buy a 13 year old v.

    The fact of the matter is a much smaller mfd replacement loses functionality and does require looking down and away from the road to operate.

    Seems ideal for that unit!
