^^ probably not much different, in theory. Though a CarPC running Windows can run a frontend interface like Centrafuse, that's designed to operate similarly to regular aftermarket stereo/nav units.
Plus, most CarPC setups look more OEM, than just having an iPad hanging off the dash.. but both can get the job done I suppose.

I just unclipped the OBDII port so it doesn't point down. Mine is sitting next to the knee airbag and I have it connected to my carputer at all times.

Basically what AFD said I didn't want a laptop hanging off the radio or use my phone anymore. With the setup like this I can have all my video, music, nav and everything else in dash

I don't know if it would work in this application or not, but there are steering wheel control adapters that scoshe makes. It basically hooks into the module on the back of the column and runs to the radio.
Usually they are brand specific for the HU, but there are a few universal one's out there.

There are ones specific to carPCs but I haven't tried them so I don't know if it will work with the Mitsu wheel and how much effort it takes.

OP
did you completely remove stock HU, therefore you dont have radio at all?
Only reason I am asking is I did a carPC install in my 350z and there was a cubby hole where I intalled my Liliput screen and just wired PC audio output to my AUX in my stock BOSE HU
Thanks

I ghettoed it a bit.

Might be a bit different in the newer Lancers since they redesigned the cubbies.
