I’m very intrigued did you install or have a shop do it. It looks very similar to the unavi item. How would you rate the install in degree of difficulty? And please include a good assessment of your own DIY expertise. The GTAcarkits.com website has a very thorough install video.
Thank you.
Any updates as to how the unit works? Anything dissapoint you in its operation? Does it work as well as you expected?Just completed the install of the UNAVI Wireless CarPlay unit and it works quite well. Hard to believe life before CarPlay. It pretty much has a factory install feel. The sound comes from selecting the AUX channel on the dash and holding the Back button for a couple of seconds switches you into the familiar CarPlay screen. The Next and Volume switches on the steering wheel work as well. With Siri, I can actual tell her to call or text someone where the QX60 software was completely worthless with vocal commands.
The CarPlay connects to my iPhone in my pocket automatically in about 10 seconds when I turn on the car, My only gripe is that the Siri volume is lower than the CarPlay music which is a bit lower than Sirius/XM. I am getting used to turning down the volume before I switch to Sirius/XM.
Installation is more than a novice job IMO, Yanking out the console panels is a bit nerve racking as it feels like the panels and clips are going to bust off. Also, the video and instructions that came with the UNVAI are typical in that they are made for a variety of Nissan models so you need your wits about you as you plug in the 7 or 8 patch cables that come with the kit.
This looks exactly like the GTA system that JWilson describes, however on the GTA website it looks to be $150 cheapersaw this system a few weeks ago. looks like the best one out there... anyone?

After using the UNAVI CarPlay since my original post I must say that it works great and it has become a true extension of my Apple ecosystem. Just a couple of observations:Any updates as to how the unit works? Anything dissapoint you in its operation? Does it work as well as you expected?
THanks
Thanks for your first hand opinion, I just ordered the unavi system. (GTA is out of stock). Report to follow.After using the UNAVI CarPlay since my original post I must say that it works great and it has become a true extension of my Apple ecosystem. Just a couple of observations:
To insure I connect to the wireless dongle located in the center console I put my iPhone in the cup holder after it didn’t connect a couple of times when left in my left pocket. I can always bypass the wireless dongle and plug my iPhone in directly if I want to charge it while driving.
Also, In the beginning I had bluetooth conflicts with the QX60 head unit as it would kick CarPlay off the phone as both signals fought to connect to my iPhone. Once I turned off both of the head unit bluetooth options, no more conflicts. With CarPlay, I don’t need the QX60 bluetooth features anymore.
Overall, it works great and I use it every time I drive.
Thanks for the details.Installed the uNavi system yesterday...
Level of DIY, above hacker. Completely installed new factory under hood wiring harness in an R129 Series Mercedes. Most jobs of this type don’t faze me, my issues usually revolve around big hands small spaces. The install if done properly should take no more than 45 min. Most of the panels and dash bezels come out easily. Tips when you start removing things take note of clips attached to them on their backside and make sure you have them all accounted for.Thanks for the details.
How long did it take to install? Also, are you experienced at doing these types of installations or a novice (more pictures/instructions= better)?
To add to my installation comments above, I used a fish tape and electrical tape to feed all the wires to the passenger footwell. I had to do the overall job twice as well since the instructions lacked specificity. I got video the first pass test but not audio. Once I discovered that I went back in and found the missing connector to plug in (a bit trial and error approach). I had to remove the center council twice as well because the little orange transmission shift indicator was out of position as it showed through the little window, Seems to me it took about four hours and I am an infrequent backyard mechanic.Thanks for the details.
