Porsche Wind Deflector with Edge Lighting [from CAD, prototyping to finish]

Question... If looking for more HMI interactions and possible growth, couldn't the controller wireless connect to either my phone or my headunit?

I have not done a lot of work with leds and their control, but in the robotics and IoT applications I have been working with it almost always makes more sense to manage the controller over wireless rather then add the complexity of lcds and touchscreens to the device.

Thoughts?

Edit: added:

I might be failing to correctly imagine the final outcome.. I am picturing having to incorporate a 2.4" screen somewhere in my car and although the mirror is a good idea, personally I think I would rather keep things simple in the boxster. This car is more about driving to me.. but if could control from my phone or headunit.. that is a bonus.
