Car Tablet Interface Customization/Skin making

[yey56]

Hi! Don't know where to post this really, hope it fits in this category. So i've been thinking of making customizations to the looks of my car android UI. I could probably just get a skin (I don't know how to install that either) but I'm quite interested in making my own UI. I figured its gonna be more complex than making a simple skin. What I'm looking from this post are any insights into how one might get it done (what i need to learn, what tools to use, forums etc.) I basically have no experience in this but I think I can learn my way through this and maybe in the future tackle on cooler projects like a custom dashboard cluster. Much thanks!

I'm not sure it's as easy as normal because they often built on hardware that's hard to get source code or details for.
