Nice Setup, but that is some ugly car (no offense) - what make/model is that? looks more like a truck (the 18 wheel kind) than a car...

I have though About the subject for quite some time and I do have my issues with it.
First is the Sound, so you kept the Radio you had Right? While searching for this DIY I found that most people had issues with the sound.
Then I believe that to add Kodi to a Car would be important to also be able to add Car features like Radio quite hard this one without any internet connection.
Adding a good Sat Nav would be important as well (Hard to find something useful).
Good and User friendly Design in terms of Theme for a Car.
But the idea is great but not easy to achieve the main Goal, build a complete Radio/MediaCenter/GPS at lower cost with better quality. (in our days you can find Android Systems doing it all and they would cost around £300.00 so, I don't know if this would be something to do or not.

. some carriers offer hotspots so he could run wifi off his phone if he wanted too.
I suppose if he was going camping he could get a pathway satellite receiver or something.
you could alos get a tv tuner run it through a cb antenna and get free ota
I think that would be overkill unless you were setting it up in an RV or something.
