It's now much better!



Land Rover logo at startup

Apple CarPlay interface improved

Steering wheel controls now working (!!!) for the CarPlay track skip forward/back.





Spewing because this is better than what I have in my XKR...



Looks bloody great IMHO...

Was there a detailed how to fit guide?

Not really, no.

There's very little info provided by the suppliers of these Android units, and I didn't really have time to take many photos when I was putting it in.

In a D3 or RRS without factory navigation, you need to cut out the hole to fit the screen, that's probably the most intensive part of it, the rest is just the usual wiring & setting it up.

Good work Cambo.
So to ask the perennial question, is this possibly a complete fix/update for the early D4s without navigation etc that seem to have fallen through the cracks so far?

Thanks mate.

Yes of course I thought about could this work in the 2010-2011 D4, and the answer is yes, but...

- only the 2010-2011 models
- you will still have a panel full of redundant buttons
- the mounting of the screen in a D3 is different to a D4
- the frame around the screen on a D3 is a different shape to a D4

so it may not be an exact fit, may need some modification, or you have to accept that it doesn't fit 100% right

but making it "work" yes it would work.

Cambo, I saw you had a kit of a few combined parts that could be soldered into the existing 2010 model that gave Apple carplay. Wasn’t for the feint hearted but what I want.

What was the deal there?

That's only for factory navigation screens. If you have the small screen then a replacement screen like the one in this thread is needed.
