Could you build this?

No Modifying Volkswagen/Audi MIB2 infotainment firmware to enable custom CarPlay and alternate virtual cockpit screen output requires specialized automotive hardware and embedded reverse engineering expertise.

What it would actually take: Requires disassembling and modifying QNX-based firmware images for Harman MHI2/MHI2Q head units, unpacking IFS (Image File System) partitions, binary patching graphics rendering and projection daemons in ARM assembly, and testing against physical automotive CAN bus and display hardware.
