Over the past few months I've been working on a project I've wanted to do for a long time: I bought a used 2009 Porsche Cayman S, and I've been upgrading it over the summer! After wrapping the car, fitting new wheels, tires and suspension, and other cosmetic mods I realized the one thing I was missing is modern integration in the Apple Ecosystem. A car can be new or old, but the most impactful thing in my opinion is being integrated with modern mapping systems, music streaming, voice control and hands free messaging through Apple CarPlay. Fortunately, a company has come up with a solution for installing wireless Appel CarPlay in older Porsche, Audi, BMW, and other makes!

I appreciate all your input…

@nukelauncher95 Год назад

Nice car, Luke! I've been in the market for one of these too, but I'd personally have the 6 speed manual. I work on cars for a living and I work on tons of Porsches. These really are great cars. Fairly reliable and not the worst to DIY. And of course is phenomenal to drive. I know you're going to fall in love with it.

Adding a highpass filter on your voice-over will remove sub pops. You wont hear it on a phone but makes a difference for people watching on tv and avr amps.

@calebhays6803 Год назад

I have a base model honda civic that had a basic bluetooth radio in it from the factory. I bought a apple carplay radio made specifically for my car from a manufacturer called Dasaita and it was a game changer. It was made specifically for my car so it actually added features my old radio didn’t offer like telling me which door is open, giving me moving lines in the camera while backing up, and a bunch more features that are actually useful! It actually made me love my car and seeing you be able to do something similar is awesome. Thanks for making great videos all these years!

@walpoleandworcester Год назад

Getting more adventurous with these mods! Hell yeah.

@gsridernet Год назад

Hi Luke, really nice car, hope that you enjoy it. It looks really much better with the wrap (seems more modern), love the stock look of both the interior and exterior - but the color makes it much younger. Enjoy it!

@mattpipes5106 Год назад

Wow, congrats on the new to you wheels! The color is awesome… I’ve been a subscriber for a while and had no clue you were a gear head, but considering you take apart computers it makes sense. I did a similar upgrade to my 2006 Volvo V50 back in 2016… It was an Android touch screen and head unit to replace the stock unit, and it was wonky, sure, but it did transform the car, especially on road trips. So kudos and great video!

@pauldestefano7073 Год назад

Good for you driving that badass ride. Def need to see more car content.

@skateecho Год назад

That’s so cool! I fully expected a new head unit but props to whoever engineered this work around. Just brilliant. I always liked having an older car that i can fully swap the head unit in so my 99 has wireless CarPlay. Scroll is a bit awkward on my cheaper head unit but its really nice for basic interactions and honestly just having maps and music. Usually get that stuff sorted before i start driving anyways! But its just such a nice convenience to have. And i can keep my phone in my pocket!

@martyp2138 Год назад

Done the exact same thing with my M5 and completely agree with you - one of the best mods to do on a car. That doesn't even have a touch screen so you use the iDrive wheel but it works well and can use Siri if you want the screen however is excellent. Just completely modernises the car and the wireless connection is great. Bought another kit for my Frontier/Navara which does have a touch screen and can't wait to get that fitted along with many other mods I have planned for the truck.

The Audi did not have a touch screen, but you can still navigate the controls using the built in selectors without issue.

Regarding pressing the back button to select the next track and the forward button to select the previous track, I'm sure you've already considered swapping the button caps around? Or can you swap the wires connecting them?

That would cause the same problem on the stock head unit where on CarPlay is fine but on the stock Porsche system the buttons are opposite.

I did this on my Lexus IS and LX. CarPlay looks amazing on a 12 inch and 10 inch display. Shoutout to all the kit makers who make this possible, and the fact the new cars don’t often have the wireless option makes it sweeter. Finally, using a physical button to swap Modes is also superior to finding the interface option.

As a tech and auto enthusiast, I want to say that I thoroughly enjoyed this vid. Coming from a BMW 335i, which had awful mechanical issues but a wonderfully intuitive entertainment system to a Lexus RC350, which I love every aspect of 1000% more than the Bimmer save its pretty woeful entertainment system interface (which is still terrible even in the refreshed versions of it), I'm really looking at doing something similar to my car. I know there are some dodgy replacement units that exist, but I'm waiting until I see something a little more robust before I take on that challenge. Thanks for taking the time to make this, and I'm definitely going to check out your car channel!

I am owning an E-Class from 2008 - slamming a CarPlay unit in it, was the best thing to do. But I had to change the complete head unit. I wish there where a bigger market to „upgrade“ older cars. It‘s amazing to give them new features normally only new cars have!
