Apple CarPlay compatible boxes for Audi are designed for vehicles where the original screen is retained. The Audi catalog includes 39 references, including 23 boxes and 16 screens, ranging from €159 to €389.
Covered models include the A1, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7 and A8, the Q2, Q3, Q5 and Q7 SUVs, the TT coupe, as well as the S4 and RS4, for model years 2000 to 2020.
The difference from a screen is simple:
-
The box plugs in behind the original screen and retains it: the manufacturer's display remains usable.
-
The screen replaces the original unit and alters the appearance of the center console.
To choose, first identify the interface installed on board: MMI, MMI 2G, MMI 3G, MIB, or RMC/MHI/HN. More than the model, it is the interface that determines the connector used and the appropriate reference. Verify your Audi's model, year, and multimedia system before ordering.
