I'd have rather seen Google Pay support than Android Auto though I imagine it's a lot less feasible.
Google would have to approve the OS by whitelisting it
Would they? Why? I'm asking as I'm unaware of what restrictions are in place for it to work.
Edit: i meant to ask: "would they have to approve it?"
They would not. Best case scenario is that you can trick Google into thinking your device/OS is legit. It's of no benefit to them to in any way compromise the security of their highly sensitive payments app.
Rephrased my initial message.
