Hi guys

Has anyone seen or fitted anything that allows Apple Carplay to work on current or older F types?
Carplay looks super useful now on ios12 and am looking for a way to get this to work without losing any of the current InControl functionality.

I've seen aftermarket kits for audis, but none for Jags :(

There's a discussion about this in the Jaguar Forums. I've come up with a way to mirror your screen, but you don't get any feedback from the touch screen... it's just display.

@SammyV6S.
I would just get a good phoneholder and link it with the USB or even the aux to the infotainment.
You can then control it from your phone display.

Forget about using the car infotainmentscreen

To be able to get Apple carplay / Android Auto, you need the latest 'smartphone pack', for 2019 and LATER models !
But this can only be installed if you ALREADY have hardware that CAN NOT be retrofitted !

Very interesting - bringing Jag infotainment into the present.

Wonder what happens when you have a sw upgrade.

Think I'll stick with my foot operated sound system for now though 8-)

Does anyone know if it is at all possible to retro fit the incontrol pro system with car play to an MY16 car?
The unit size is the same, the hard buttons just become touch screen buttons, right?

Or is more required here? ie would my MY16 just not have the internal computer system to deal with the retrofit?
