It's not a full android experience, in fact I'm not even 100% sure it's running on android at all, could be some custom linux thing. In any case, it's quite locked down, no file explorer, and certainly no play store, I wouldn't even know how to sideload or get root access. If you have any insight on this I'd be interested to hear.

I mean, you could, but you'd end up covering CD slot, your vents, and/or the inbuilt screen. and it would sit very proud of everything else on the dash

Also printing the shroud is difficult, clips are hard

This was my previous solution, it was not ideal
