I’m so glad I added the GTA CarPlay to my 2012 ML 350. Now I’ll hold unto my car for several more years! GTA now includes step by step programming instructions which should be followed carefully. The video tutorial is helpful but I gave up trying to fish the USB connection through the side panel and opted to drill a hole through the HVAC housing to the cubby below where it stores nicely. I also found that placing the CarPlay unit beneath the HVAC controls gives you plenty of space to reinstall the controls. I’m mechanically inclined but this install still took about two hours.

Installed this in my wife’s GL and following the instructions it was up and running in about 30 minutes. The most difficult part was positioning the harness just right to slide the head unit back in. Once that was done it connected up with my iPhone and worked without issue. One button (the back button) to switch between the stock interface and CarPlay. Only time I really need to is when I want to list to a local radio station or turn on the seat massage. I’m now trying to figure out if I need to keep the satellite radio service. Going to get one for my car now. I did purchase the tool kit and it is well worth it. No issues removing trim and even releasing some of the connectors.

An amazing experience when I upgraded my car system, MB Command, with a GTA car kit! It was a very easy install, it took me only about 45 mins from when I removed the first trim parts until I powered up the system.
I have a 2015 – GL550 Mercedes-Benz, and the GTA Car kit is the only one that allows me to switch back and forth between my car system, MB Command, and the GTA Car Kit. Some accessories, e.g. massage seats require to operate them from the original car system. I rate this product 5 stars out of 5! Great product!

The unit works flawlessly! installation was fairly easy (even for someone who has never taken apart a dash). the youtube instructions were helpful. now that its installed everything is fast, and I’m able to get 24-bit / 44.1kHz (high definition) audio streaming wirelessly through carplay! I’m absolutely loving this!!

The unit works wonderfully, HOWEVER!!!! It is very important not to follow exactly the instructions from the VIDEO first, which instructs you to disassemble the unit and THEN follow the steps for configuring the cars OEM video and Aux and GTA Carplay setup. The instructions packaged with the unit clearly indicates that the steps should be reversed, and the system setup instructions prior to disassembly (VERY IMPORTANT). As difficult as it is to push the wires back far enough with room for the head unit and AC controller, I had to dissemble the entire unit and start all over. Trust me, this was a ROYAL Pain in every part of my body and mind!!! GTA, while the video instructions are very helpful as far as showing how and where everything should go, it would be most helpful to make sure that the ORDER to follow them were accurate and precise. Other than that, the unit works wonderfully!
