Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for an NGT 4.0 (2012 USA spec SLS)

I am looking to install a box to add Apple CarPlay/Android Auto to the NGT 4.0 COMMAND in my 2012 SLS AMG,

Does anyone have a kits they have installed on a NGT 4.0 I would really like to maintain some of the functionality like this:
1. Skipping tracks forward and back using the buttons on the radio
2. Add a touch screen without just putting an overlay see this example

3. Wireless connection

So far I have found the following options but they all seem to require the head unit to be running in AUX mode
The Fitting Bay
IDCore
kremersino
Mozart electronics
naviplus

Thank you in advance for the help

Have a look at this thread. I just installed a Teyes Android unit. Huge upgrade although for a different MB model.

I don't know if this will work for you, but I just put this in my 2014 S550, it's spendy, but retains all factory functions and add wireless car/android play, it's also completely plug and play.

it’s worth it to me, I’ve had it for a couple months and it’s worked flawlessly. It’s truly plug and play. And I didn’t lose any of my factory functions.
