2012-2015 Garmin-based Apple CarPlay?
Hey all.
I was looking into adding carplay to my 15' V8V. The Aston Installations kit looks great, but that extra controller that's needed to navigate the menu's would be very annoying as my car is a manual and there is no good place to put it. I've found this online and it looks like it utilizes the factory ****. Has anyone tried it?

I believe it's a module that plugs in to the center console area, but I can't confirm. It hijacks the CAN-bus from somewhere, so maybe the trunk?
