Has anyone tried the apple car play option from Unique Auto developments yet?

I’m sure there was a recent thread on that one - not sure if anyone went for it though.

IIRC the only downside was that you lose the sat nav, but you can use Waze instead - the only thing you can’t do is have the nav pop ups on the main dash.

I might have been tempted had I not bought a phone holder a few weeks prior to seeing it and now have all I really need.

theres a thread 5 down on this section re this.. ... - .- -.

There seem to be quite a few of these out there now - to be honest I hadn’t come across this one on other threads.

The installation video looks a bit more DIY-doable than some of the early ones (no knives seem to be involved!) - worth a look - it’s been quite well filmed.

Thanks ABAB will take a look

I already have the full screen unit that I bought from a forum member, I love it but the wife hates its, says it's too complicated so looks like going back to the original unit

is that the 10'' android unit?

why doesnt the wife like it then. ... - .- -.

Hi Stan,

yes it's the android 10.2 unit, she says its too complicated, I have to say some of the functions are a bit of a faff but overall I think its a great bit of kit, I don't drive it as much as she does and getting a phone call everytime to tell me how s**t it is isn't worth the hassle lol

at least the bluetooth phone bit works...  ... - .- -.

Is it a early Android or the later 9.0 version? Theres a big difference between them...

Not sure Craig, I’ll see if I can find out 👍🏻

If the wife doesn't like it then she can easily use the host factory software? unless its an early system and the touchscreen is crap?
