Just installed mine! Took ~1.5 hours for me (I never work on cars). Seems to be working great so far, no difference in audio quality and everything works wirelessly!

How / where did you drill the required holes? Are you using the USB wire for anything?

[@christophersamp1702]

@@SteveK99Sub I haven’t drilled them yet and I’m not using the extra usb. Honestly considering just leaving it under the center console and just using a trim tool to get access to it if I ever need it.

Super video. I have been looking for such a system for a long time. Thanks

[@jacemoezinia8764]

Thinking about installing the kit, but im worried about the possibility of installing an aftermarket system and it frying my head unit, which would be a very costly repair. Is this something i need worry about? I also dont want to drill any holes for wires etc.

[@gtacarkits]

Hi, We would not sell a product even if it had a slight chance of frying your original stereo. Also, our harness is fused to avoid such possibilities. Thank you.

[@SteveK99Sub]

I can understand why you need the auxiliary wire and adapter to plug into the existing USB port to get sound or is it sound and power? BUT why do you need the extra USB wire? Not thrilled about drilling one hole for auxiliary but if it's wireless why do you need the USB wire?

[@gtacarkits]

Some phones require it for the initial setup of wireless functionality. Plus that USB is used for updates to the module. Thank you

Does this effect warrenty ?

[@moealyasini2784]

Do I need AUX or USB if I only want to do Wireless ? Seems a lot easier if I dont do last few cables

[@nicolascindric9050]

This is not clear from the video. Will call them to ask

@@moealyasini2784 I called them and got someone nice over the phone. I sent them an email as he recommended, that he will immediately forward to the tech doing the installs and then will get an answer. I also mentioned that you posted the same question I have on the youtube channel.

[@nicolascindric9050]

Here we are, got the answers:
- The kit comes with a USB female, that is used for wired connection and also to be able to do firmware upgrade of the carplay kit. Which means it is not mandatory to use.
- The audio is mandatory to use in order to have the audio coming from the carplay module to play on the car. In other words, your phone is connected wireless to the carplay module, you still need to have the audio cable plugged with the adapter , from the carplay module to the mercedes USB plug. In other words it is like re-injecting the sound into the USB of the car. If you dont then you wont have sound.

Finished the install on the 2019 AMG GT-C, fantastic!
Any question I can help

[@richardwahng1320]

Does this work with the GTR? How to remove the knob in the middle of the first panel you removed? Interested in your product thanks

[@gtacarkits]

Yes, everything will be the same, except that traction control button in the dashboard. But it still gets removed the same way.

[@retbul001]

stock usb ports works with no issue with this carplay?

[@gtacarkits]

Hi, Yes, stock USB will work the same way. Thank you.

[@OliverSeddon-qw9cn]
