Thanks for the nice comment :) Yes I was able to tuck the box to the right hand side of the glovebox. The hardest part was tucking the wires out of the way, it is tricky but possible by removing the glovebox, and inserting the EasyConnect unit into the glovebox, THEN reinstall the glovebox as shown Thanks for watching :)

Hi! You can still receive calls normally via Bluetooth, but you can also disconnect the bluetooth entirely and have the call go through the CarPlay completely.

Thanks for watching! Not sure I understand your question to be honest but I'll try and answer it: If you opt to use "aux" as the input in Media then the Bluetooth audio won't work unless you switch back to Bluetooth as the input in Media. However, if you prefer, you can use the option called "use the original Bluetooth audio" in the settings of the device which will allow all audio to be streamed by Bluetooth from your phone instead of using the Aux input option.

@@WheelzonWheels My bad - it was a poorly worded question. What I mean to clarify is at 09:27 when you mention the need to have 'aux' as an option under media for sound to work. If I use the option of using a cable in the AMI port, rather than coding it in, will my phone need to be connected via that cable in order for sound to transmit through CarPlay, or will sound transmit via Bluetooth now that the Aux appears in the drop-down menu. Hope that makes more sense - I think that's what you've explained anyway so thank you for that.
