  • Just installed Carplay system in my 2012 Porsche 911s. This is a very nice system. I love the compactness. The installation video is useful and I knew what to expect except for a couple of minor curve balls. My car has the SAT radio system and the board installation was tight, but it worked. I also had fiber optics to transfer from my old harness. It took about 4 hrs to install and it worked on the first startup. I had some issues getting my AUX activated, but just needed to refer to the owners manual. It works very well- no issues. The moving gridlines for the backup camera are awesome as well as a the graphics for the backup sensors. Overall, this kit exceeded expectations. Please develop one for my 2008 Cayenne GTS!

  • I recently installed version 2 of the GTA car kit on my 2016 BMW 428i Gran Coupe and thought that I would share my experience.

    The installation video is excellent; not too long, but covers all the important points in sufficient detail. I’d emphasize that it’s critical to remove the glove box to do a good installation. Some other videos suggest that you can get away without this on 3- and 4-series BMWs, but I find hard to imagine how to place the electronics module into the space between the head unit and the glove box.

    I found a few minor differences between my car and the one in the video.
    1. The head unit was secured with only two torx screws rather than four, perhaps because it seems to be not as high as the one in the vehicle in the video.
    2. The connectors on the HVAC/radio control panel and the footwell light were very tight and I could not easily remove them. I left them in rather than risk breaking them. This made things a bit more awkward but was still manageable.
    3. There are two cables that run from the bottom right of the head unit (when viewed from behind) up the right side and over the top of the quad lock connector. While I could maneuver the cables out of the way to get the quad lock out, holding them out of the way while plugging the new harness in was a challenge. The cables are held in position by a plastic clasp just to the left of the quad connector. This can be opened to give more slack in these two cables so that the new quad lock is more easily inserted.

    The system works as billed. There is no loss of audio quality when using Car Play. Best of all I can now get real time traffic information through Waze or Google Maps, a function that was lost from these models due to the obsolescence of their 3G mobile hardware.

  • The GTA Car Kits Apple CarPlay upgrade for my 2016 Range Rover Evoque SE Premium is a ‘must have’ and an excellent tool. The video provided by GTA Car Kits is undoubtedly helpful with step-by-step guides. It took me about an hour to install the Wireless Apple CarPlay module. As extensively described in the video, all the steps were very straightforward. I can attest that the setup is very simple and requires only two screw drivers and a plastic panel remover.

    After installation, I encountered an issue in which my Apple CarPlay screen would shut down and bring me back to the OEM homepage screen. This occurred several times and I decided to reach out to the GTA Car Kits customer service via email. Representatives from the company were very professional and provided prompt responses with detailed instructions. It turned out the issue was having the ‘auto back to home screen’ setting turned on in my OEM system. After turning this feature off, per customer service representative, it fixed the issue and CarPlay does not kick back to the OEM home screen!

    GTA Car Kits provide unbelievably easy-to-install modules and their customer support is excellent and far-superior than other manufacturers. I would genuinely recommend this product and their other modules to all my friends and family members with compatible vehicles. I’m very impressed and will continue to purchase from GTA Car Kits.

  • Quick Shipping it arrived yesterday, I ordered it it on Oct 3rd and it arrived yesterday Oct. 9th. Last night I installed it. This System works Great! The hardest part was running the Mic wires under the dash and fishing the plug up from below. The whole process took me about 45 minutes. I was quoted $348 at a local Automotive Audio Specialist, which didn’t seem too bad, but the deal killer is I’d have to leave my Truck there all day.

    I love that as soon as I get in my Truck with my phone, it is connected to the Blue tooth, no messing around connecting to the system. My Mapping works great on my phone, and the audio for mapping is automatically is cancelled by the the blue tooth music.

  • Great product and works great. Installed in my 2014 911 Targa 4s along with a rear view camera. Strongly recommend this to others seeking to modernize their cars/vehicles without changing the original look. Love having CarPlay and its flexibility and look in my Porsche. Excellent product and awesome walk through on installation. Thank you GTA car kits.

  • I took my 2011 Cayenne to GTA Carkits to have this upgrade and they did an excellent job.
    Most importantly, they respect the car and don’t damage anything. After a clean install Vitaliy explained the system and it’s been a huge upgrade to the Porsche PCM 3.1. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED AND GREAT SUPPORT!!!

  • After using this product (With Bluetooth) for about a month in my 2002 4Runner. I can easily give it a 4 out of 5. The important factors; such as connectivity and audio quality are top notch. only suggestion is the supplied aux cord hisses unless it is in a certain position.

  • Installed seamlessly into a 2019 GLC300. Finally Apple CarPlay, wireless and full screen. No more paying for expensive MB navigation map upgrades. I was hesitant to remove the entertainment panel and move around wiring but the installation video was a great help and everything went smoothly. I was faced with reinstalling optic cables and reached out for help to GTACarkits who responded very quickly. The ability to quickly switch from CarPlay to OEM entertainment and back is an added feature.

  • What an awesome find! I just installed this GTA unit in a 2016 Rover Sport Supercharged, and it took me about an hour as I followed the directions. By the time I was done, I was so excited was so excited that I dropped a couple of screws down in the back (they’re gone, and I didn’t really try to look for them). I just replaced them with similar sized screws that I had laying around. It’s easier if you use tools with heavy magnetic properties.
