You guys got any good ideas what to do with this outdated navigation computer in my motorhome.

Do a little modification and install an IPAD in its place? use it to control music, maps etc

Not a bad idea. I do need to upgrade the dash stereo. My kids are lost trying to figure out what a CD player is

Plus one for the iPad. They have a lot of mounting option out there.
I had an outdated stereo with a cd changer in mine. Replaced it with a 8" touchscreen with CarPlay and love it. You have a much bigger opening to fill so the iPad would be a nice option.

Haha have they figured out what the floppy disk drive is ? Ipad vote as well.

I pad / I pad pro or IPad mini what ever fits best

you could probably remove the cup holders and build something off of that, possibly paint it or wrap it to get it newish looking, or a different type of wood so it’s not dated looking

along with the floppy disk thing, or convert that into a cup holder deal and use the above for a phone, I pad data center/ shelf w/ power ports

Vinyl wrapped flat panel ( use some plywood / plastic / MDF ) in place of the screen and then a I pad mount on top of that


The old school cup holders like that are way too Shallow to hold a Yetti Style cup in place. Needs to be spaced out more ( deeper recess ) so the cup won’t tip / flip out
