Carplay

Does anyone know of an adapter or dongle where I can get to add CarPlay to my car? 2018 C300

Search the forum - there are many previous posts about this.
To summarise you have 2 choices - change the physical screen for an Android version or install a 'box' (also Android) into your car which uses the existing screen. Either option gives CarPlay and Android Auto.

Is there a link you’d recommend? I called my nearest MB dealership and they said they used a dongle attachment, just didn’t name one

I believe we have a forum sponsor here that has this system (box that the previous post talked about). I forgot who though.

Edit:

​​​​​Saw this video, not sure if it works. youtube.com/watch?v=PEcZP7F04s0

Another more recent solution (mentioned by the previous post) is a box that has android running inside and like a mini computer. I believe one of the sponsors (I believe their name was Mandel) on this forum sells it. Personally never used it so I am not sure how well it works or if it works though, please do some research before deciding.

Have a look at Road Top - https://roadtop.com.cn

Can be bought from many places, including Amazon. I have this one - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000...21ef1802ubT98l , works a treat.
