Going to need something like this in order to be able to connect your Alpine box, unless you want to go via the AMI port... which would be very untidy:

Only if you want to view whilst the vehicle is above 3mph.Do you not also need vim activated which can’t be done on newer cars.
VC is limited in what it displays, especially in non S and RS vehicles. I get many requests for the type of setup you have monitored above, which is pretty easy to setup in PFL vehicles. FL vehicles need an interface like the one I have listed in order to get "video in", and any FL vehicle after mid 2017 cannot have VIM at the moment, but I have almost creaked itWhat I had in an old car was the screen showing useful info like boost, afr, oil temp etc and can be configured to show different things depending on what sensors/modules was plugged in.
I know a some of this is available on the vc but having it all centralised in the main mmi screen instead of shuffling through different screen on vc makes a bit more sense. Need VIM to do something like that.

That was a pic of a gtr. The one I had was oil temp, oil pressure, coolant temp, revs and I think some others.You had that on the pop-up display?
Ah third party screen makes sense. Was confused and thought you'd somehow got it on the MMI screen.That was a pic of a gtr. The one I had was oil temp, oil pressure, coolant temp, revs and I think some others.
Had a pioneer screen and a module that connected to sensors and everything was displayed on screen.
That’s what I would like to have. Actually use mmi for useful info. But need vim cracked(Alix ;-) ) and need to see what bits I need to get that in a video feed.Ah third party screen makes sense. Was confused and thought you'd somehow got it on the MMI screen.
Haha yeah, would be very nice to have. Luckily I have a PFL, but I don't think it'd be worth showing that info on a 1.6L, lolThat’s what I would like to have. Actually use mmi for useful info. But need vim cracked(Alix ;-) ) and need to see what bits I need to get that in a video feed.
