In hindsight (I went in a different order) this bottom plate should be the first thing to remove (if you really want to take your factory radio apart which I don't recommend at all). It is just 3 screws and then you can switch to a flat head to pop it off like the picture below.

Next you can take off the back plate if you want although there is little reward for doing so, you don't really get to see much you can't already.

This is kind of a blurry picture of the S/N on the back plate I believe it's 313-2194-02

The face plate is held on by these two screws and some plastic clips that are easy to see around the outside. They come up with gentle pressure as well no need to go crazy.

Once 'off' you'll notice it's still held on by a few cables. The smallest one pulls out with just gentle pressue no clips or anything. The largest orange/copper colored one you have to lift up the black clip to get it off. Same thing with the white cable but you will want to remove on the faceplate side rather than the radio side.

Clip on, clip off...

When you put these guys back on later you will want to make sure that the little tiny ass tabs on the cables are in the little spot on the clip like so..

Then just press the black clip down gently. This particular picture is actually not the one from the faceplate it's the one that connects the two main boards it's just for example.

The two at the bottom of this picture (front of the radio) connect to the faceplate. The one on the side connects the boards.

This shows two of the three cables after the are removed and the serial number of the faceplate board.

With the faceplate off you can see the third white cable that connects to it and the serial number of the bottom board (upsidedown sorry) it's 83BZLRO1039. I THINK the first O is an O and not a 0 as it doesn't have the line through it like the other.

Unfortunately they soldered one of the screws on the bottom board. So I didn't get the radio ENTIRELY apart this time. Although I did manage what I was comfortable with and still got it back together and it still works.

My hypothesis is that this guy is the main memory piece but it's a guess, it could be an XM attachment who knows I'll be googling some serial numbers and doing some manufacturer searches and inquiries to try and find out some more information in the coming days. I'm disappointed I didn't find like an SD card or something I could just tear though on my linux machine and start on the programming already but all these serial/part/model numbers will hopefully lead me to more information.

This is pretty much the solution you're looking for. I'd run it myself but I don't like the low hardware specs.

How the fuck did they manage to do that? Someone was drunk.

I'm honestly not sure of its audio chops, really. That can all be fixed with a USB DAC piped over to an amp anyway. What I really want is something with 2GB+ memory and a Snapdragon 800 series or comparable proc with at minimum a 1080p resolution. If they're building this, they can build that. Anything else is a compromise.

I'll probably end up going full retard and building another PC to accomplish my goals.

I hear that's a widespread problem among Japanese factory workers... (but who knows maybe that piece was built in China)

So... Does the 2016 Hyperblue radio have RCA outs for a sub?

Ugh. I want to add a sub w/o using an LOC, and I want to use a stock head unit, but it's not worth downgrading to the FRS HU. LOC it is...

I followed up by asking them what OS it uses... I'm sure they'll have a good answer for that... next step is try a bootable USB or CD with linux on it. You never know..
