    GPS on Touchscreen for 2019 Mirage?

    Hi, I have a 2019 Mirage with a touchscreen which supports bluetooth audio for phone calls. I have seen some Mitsubishi SUVs with GPS and today saw a 2020/2021 Mirage article with GPS: https://www.eurekar.co.uk/articles/2...subishi-mirage

    I was wondering if the 2019 model has a way to "cast" the android so that it outputs more than just the audio. I am not sure if it is included in any of the 2019 models, or maybe just not the lower base models (mine is an ES, after all.) I would like it instead of installing a mount for a GPS, which tends to be obstructive or insecurely mounted- and I don't want to install something secure but also hard to remove either. I would also gladly use a built-in GPS on the touchscreen, even if it doesn't have all the other android casting abilities. I am not sure if mine supports GPS via any method on the screen using Android, etc, so I was just curious.

    Thanks. Name:  mirint.jpg

    I thought most models had Android Auto...which you just connect your phone, and you get Google Maps or Waze on the touchscreen.

    Maybe it's LE/SE/GT that have Android Auto. Still, if you can find the Android Auto OEM radio, you should be able to just swap the head unit.

    It's not a direct swap through. The harness plugs are different. The Android Apple compatible unit is manufactured by Hyundai Mobis and uses that harness...just an fyi.

    Still probably easier than dealing with setting up a third-party head unit (assuming you can get the different harness).

    The only things standardized on car radios seems to be rough dimensions and the antenna connection...
