This is the one I use and it's great. Wireless connection and dash cam built in. It's literally better than the wired carplay I have in my other vehicle which is a '19 odyssey. integration into vehicle is the only draw back. It had screen mirroring if I want to too, but I haven't tried it yet. Might be able to play movies on it for the kids. Can't do mirroring on the wired unit. My complaints about it is that the 9” screen is a little too big on the dash and the plug in wire takes up space. Maybe their 6.86 inch one might have been a better choice… oh well.
I think there's smaller ones that you can replace your rear view mirror with making it really sleek. My car has the garage door integrated into the rear view mirror so that didn't work for me hence going with this one, but the rear view ones might be an option for others.
