I have asked Paul to do me 5 for when I get back off hols next week.

If I get them, they will be sold to those who asked first in that order.

Went up to see Zep on Friday and we got his install done in a day. It all went really well but then after testing and then refitting we had no image on the screen. Zep had bent the pins to the LCD so it all had to come out again which was frustrating. If I did it again, it would take 6hrs if there were no issues. This did no include installing the camera, that would be another half day and left that for him to do.

I met with Paul and handed over the first kit that is going in this week. All being well, the kits will be shipped when I get back off holiday, last week of April.

With regards to warranty and cutting into the loom, Paul has developed a lead that piggy backs into the head unit and you simple connect it all up, no cutting. He wants only about £25 for these so I would advise that you ask him for this during the install.

I may ship them with the next kits if there is enough interest at cost price.

Can you tell @Zep to stop breaking my car please. :)

Hi, already ordered the kit in the first batch. Would really appreciate if I could be included for the front camera and piggyback connector too, in time for my install. Thank you.

We have a medium sized cock up on my behalf. The supplier dongles are Apple CarPlay only. I will have to send them back which will cause a potential 4 week delay.

They work great with Apple but no Android Auto.

If anyone, like myself only wants CarPlay, can you post here that you are happy to accept the current dongles rather than wait.

Apologies, it’s my bad for making assumptions.

Just as well we did a "guinea pig" run, before they got sent out to the masses, good work mate.
As I can't access the configuration info, I guess theres no way I could put the AA software on the dongle either, shame really.
I've been in touch with Zep, and I'll send this one back on Tuesday once the postal service is running again
