Infotainment Upgrade Options for CarPlay

Featured Replies

Hello,

Earlier this week I picked up my 2015 vRS and would love to upgrade the infotainment system to something newer that supports Apple CarPlay. The current one has navigation, but no CarPlay with a USB connected.

I have done research and based on my glovebox unit having an optical drive, suspect it's an older MIB1 unit and that I'll need to change both that and the screen.

Could someone confirm what my upgrade options are? I'd like to retain OEM navigation if possible, but have no plans to fit a virtual cockpit.

Also, is there any benefit in selling the older unit and screen to offset the cost of the upgrade?

Attached a couple of photos, thank you in advance.

Chris.
