Stark9 Posted February 19, 2022 Report Share Posted February 19, 2022 Has anyone who use wired CarPlay on their 718 used or heard of a plug in dongle into Armrest USB which allows you to use CarPlay wirelessly? I know that very very new models don’t but not some of the older initial models Picked up our 992 today which is a 19 plate and still is wired Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonshine Posted February 20, 2022 Report Share Posted February 20, 2022 (edited) I got this Carlinkit 3.0 wireless CarPlay From Amazon Last week for £85… prices seem to be up to £135, so shop around on Amazon Works well,, plugs into the CarPlay enabled USB Socket (for me, in the glovebox) and pairs automatically when you get in the car. No complaints Edited February 20, 2022 by moonshine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart21UK Posted February 20, 2022 Report Share Posted February 20, 2022 I looked for one of these that would deal with both Apple and Android.....but failed to find one answer reasonable cost As it's a PIA to keep swapping, lightning and USB-C leads..

These type of leads only do power, they do not carry date Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a splitter so that I could connect both a USBC for Android and lightning for Apple... Unfortunately the y cable wouldn't work with an Apple phone, as stated above it wouldn't communicate properly and only charged even though the lightning lead attached to it was OEM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
