Default Wireless Apple CarPlay options

Have any of you tried the CPLAY2air USB adapters? Or are there other options that are better? I have a 2019 GT3 Touring and would love to have wireless connectivity.

I use a Carlin wireless adapter and it’s been working well for a few years.There are many brands out there so do some research and see what you like.

I use Ottocast in my 2018 GT3 Touring and works perfectly every time. $63, plug into usb in center console, very easy.

They raised the price on it. $98 as of this morning. Worth paying if it works without issue though.

On my Amazon, it still shows $92 and a $30 coupon you can use to be $62.

You learn something new every day! I had never paid attention to those coupon check boxes. Thanks for that. I ordered the Ottocast for my RS and the Jemluse for my F450 tow rig. Will be interesting to see which one works better.

+1 for Ottocast. Once in a while CarPlay won't kick in but it's easily solved by resetting the PCM.

I have the Carlinkit module. Easy, just plug it in to the center console USB port and I have full android on the screen. Love it.

Great thread, I've been looking for wireless carplay options and scooped up the Ottocast. Works seamlessly once configured!

Pretty easy setup but in my case I had to update the firmware as the firmware shipped to me did not work. That was also easy. Connect to the local IP of the Ottocast Wifi broadcast right on your phone, update firmware. Reboot it, and it connects reliably. Instructions are clear.
