Land Rover Apple CarPlay & Android Auto - Old Jaguar
Hi everyone,
After a few years in Amarok-land, I am looking forward to driving a Disco again (Disco 4 SE, MY12)!
Can anyone recommend a Sydney workshop where I could get a Carplay unit retro-fitted to my Disco, maintaining the car's native screen functionalities?
I am thinking it needs compatibility with:
- Rear camera
 - Rear parking sensors
 - steering wheel commands
 - bluetooth / hands-free calls
 - Displaly of 4Wdriving functionalities
 - Harman/Kardon speakers compatibility: I've read posts where people reported losing on sound quality after the install, as if the carplay unit wouldn't make use of all speakers.
 
Also, I'd need that person to retro-fit front parking sensors, that integrate with the in-car speakers (I know I can get a kit with its own beeper added on the dash, prefer to avoid that). I am reading in this thread it needs updating of the vehicle's CCF, that's beyond my skills
Obviously I searched and read quite a few threads, but many were years old:
- Cambo/Old Jaquar came highly recommended, but his Facebook page says they've been focusing on safety tools/R&D in recent years, and I saw a few people commenting that they're waiting on quotes for car stereo/electronics. So I wonder if he's still doing these?
 - Driven in Tassie have put together a carplay kit & custom fascia in 2022, but Launceston is far and I need an installer in/around Sydney.
 
I am looking for a workshop/someone that has done these kinds of job successfully in the past. I did retro-fit a carplay unit on my last car myself (VW Amarok 2014), but it was 50-50%, the reverse camera would randomly not turn on, causing my in-laws to crash it in a tree (...), and because the shiny Disco will be driven by said in-laws (who also scratched a mate's car the year before), yes I do WANT these front parking sensors
Anyways, good to be back, thanks in advance for the tips!

I’m pretty sure it was this mob that supplied a carplay for our Isuzu Mux. I fitted it myself and don’t know for sure if they do installs. You’ll have to check it out yourself. All that said, the kit they provided couldn’t be faulted. All the little tag wires with correct plugs and good clear instructions. I recommend them.
