I bought my Sept 2018 i3s 94ah rex a couple of months ago and am loving it. I am however keen to investigate adding Android Auto.
I have Harman Kardon sound and the system is running NBTevo_N1809217. I use a Pixel 2xl.
Has anyone added Android Auto to a similar set up?
Am I right in thinking that this could possibly be added using USB rather than an MMI box? This is what some ads on eBay appear to suggest.
Also if I am reading this right, it indicates that I will also require a WiFi aerial. How do if I know if I have one if these? Is it connected to the unit under the rear seat?
What is the potential for me bricking my car? Could it impact on my warranty?
I would welcome any experiences or useful comments. Thank you.
Edited: I think I have realised that this USB upgrade option is likely only possible to add Carplay as that is an oem option and not Android Auto. The eBay does say that adds Android mirroring but I'm not sure if that is a viable option to Android Auto?
