HDMI CarPlay Adapter

Hi,

I'm thinking about running a Windows PC with custom apps on it for music and moves that I'd like to hook up to an existing wireless CarPlay system (2024 Chevy Colorado) via and HDMI adapter to the USB-C port on the dash. I know this already works because there are 'wireless HDMI CarPlay adapters' that allow you to plug in an HDMI source to the box and then ALSO run wireless CarPlay outside of the built in wireless Carplay. I've tried various 'wireless Carplay' solutions and generally they are not reliable so I don't want anything to do with thirdparty wireless CarPlay since I already have built in wireless Carplay.

What I am looking for is an HDMI adapter the mirrors on screen whatever I plug in to it, passes through audio, AND also still allows for the built in wireless Carplay to work, without having to physically unplug the HDMI adapter. Is there a device that allows that kind of switching either via software or even remote?

Ideally it would also share audio when switching between systems.

Thanks!
