I might give one a try. I have a Boom GT and use my phone mounted on a quad-lock for GPS and drive the music from the SXM app. I could keep the phone in my jacket and use the screen which would be easier to navigate when riding. I've seen different ones on Amazon but keep getting ads for this one. I was hoping someone has already tried one of them.
I'd be curious to know how you like it. I noticed the video on their website called anyone who uses a phone mount a "dumbass" and also brags that they give you a "free" one year warranty. This doesn't sound like a great company, but if it is cheap enough it still might be a handy item to have.
Just order this from Aliexpress, there is lot of them and all pretty much same thing. The screen is ok in the dark, can't see shix on the sun. Also it vibrates like crazy and you also can't see shix because you can't focus on the screen lol
I'm using a similar unit from Carpuride sold on Amazon installed on my '19 Road King. The setup was a PITA, although I complicated it by wanting to also connect XM radio. If you wanted just to connect your phone to get Android Auto it's probably a lot simpler. You may run into issues with audio input if you use a wireless headset and want to make or answer phone calls on the bike. I can hear the person on the other end of the line but they can't hear me, so far I haven't been able to work through it. If you don't want to do that it's not a problem. If you're interested, I put up a thread in this forum.
I don't have any problem seeing the Carpuride screen in full daylight. I have it mounted to the bars with a RAM mount, it doesn't vibrate enough to make it unreadable at a stop or any speed. It's all in how you mount it.
