I'm not trying to discount your expertise...just trying to make sure all possibilities are exhausted.

So the plugs going into the back of the LCD screen are different as well? I see 3-4 plugs that look the same.

Also, if it's so obvious its not possible, not sure why 4x4 said they are currently looking into a solution. Maybe I'm just being too hopeful?

The plugs going to the rear of the LCD display for Non-Navi and Navigation stereos are exactly the same for 2014-2016 year model vehicles.
2017+ is when the Navigation got a different screen, i.e. the wider screen. For the Non-navigation 2017+ IS, it kept the regular old standard size screen as the previous years.

4x4 is probably not familiar with the differences between the two setups which is a lot. The only similarity is the Display between the two configurations

It is still in development, Integration controls with interface module with just **** function makes things more complicated vs if it had an OEM touchscreen.
I no longer work for that company so I cannot give an idea/details on timeline of a release.

In case it helps you guys, these are the 3 connectors being used with the wiring kit that comes with this unit.

Thaks...Well that doesn't look like it matches with the Navi at all...a new wiring harness is a must...so this looks like a no-go for Navi people.

If it has Bluetooth Chipset then yes a Bluetooth mouse and Keyboard would be able to pair to it and work.
In fact, USB keyboard and Mouse should as well
