It's just designed to let you use CarPlay Wirelessless. Your car must support normal CarPlay first and be on a list of tested vehicles (they do their own in house testing to confirm compatibility it seems).

Nothing really unexpected, initial connection can be a little finicky if you're already connected to a WiFi network (sometimes you have to manually select their WiFi network) to get it to connect. Firmware updates are wireless using an IP address. There is a few seconds delay in audio due to the wireless nature using WiFi.
Wish there was one like this for Android phones....

Trying to broaden horizons and diversify for an equal united understanding...

hoy llevé el Tie Par a un Car Show. Ayer reemplacé las calcomanías de N'burg en el tablero y reemplacé las copas de las puertas 3M de borde levantado por unas más grandes y mejores por Lamin-X.

Abridged in English:
-Went to car show today (3/8 R’s red)
-Yesterday, replaced N’burg dash decals, (previous folded), door finger cups, out 3M, in better & bigger Lamin-X (nearly invisible)

Installed some high grade aluminum hub Centric Rings.

Upon inspection removing my old plastic ones. I realized that the tire shop that installed my wheels used electrical tape to counter the balance of the wheels? ? is this normal?

Looks like they use the tape to help them hold in. Mine on the other hand were such a tight fit there was no need for that.

Made a custom cover to match stock-ish abs plastic and cover up the unsightly sonic gray support brace behind my grille. Looks way better back there.

Welp. Went head first into tackling my downpipe install. Got it on but yeah.. one bolt snapped not on taking OEM off but putting new one on :(

Has enough thread to put a locknut on for now but everything seems good. No leaks, no exhaust smell just the new downpipe smell. Will still get a new bolt and have it taken care of since I don't know how and the downpipe was already pretty challenging. My guess? Probably cost me the same as if I just had a shop install it for me in the first place. Hopefully not the case.. wish me luck!

Testing out the DP and stopped to check the engine, lighting was cool so took a snap.

Looks very RUGged!
So much increased throughput the center pipe blew away in second pic before you could mount it.
