ARLiberator gives you full control of your Android phone on an AppRadio2. Use any app on your AppRadio. Multitouch and button presses are taken in from bluetooth and piped into low level Linux drivers. Because of this, root access is required.

It seems people think this is a suggestion. Just to be clear:
DO NOT BUY THIS IF YOUR PHONE IS NOT ROOTED. DO NOT BUY THIS IF YOU DO NOT OWN AN APPRADIO2.
Users have reported issues with Xperia models of phones. If you own one of these phone plan on testing it in the first 10 minutes after buying it so you can easily get a refund if it does not work.
There is lots of information at http://arliberator.com. People there can help you with rooting your phone and answer any questions you have about ARLiberator or the AppRadio. There you can request new features. Get help from the developer directly and try out beta releases before they are posted to Google Play.
Because this app uses non-standard parts of the Android operating system and interacts with low level Linux APIs it is possible that not every phone will work. Please contact me, the developer. I will personally work with you as I have with many other people. Many times I'll try to code a fix to your issue, send you a version to test and then it is include in the actual app. Often people find that trying another ROM can fix their issue since ROM developers may omit certain things when building the ROM. If I don't respond to your email just send me another after a day or two.
