Default Apple CarPlay - what’s involved

Hi

Had Apple CarPlay dealer fitted. Does anyone know what’s involved? Heard somewhere that it’s just a software update but I’m not so sure.

Your comments please - thanks, Rob.

I think there are two options, just the software upgrade or the software and an additional usb socket. Check with the dealer which they plan to fit.

Thanks. I’ve had it fitted already at the dealership before delivery to keep the cost below the magical £40k. However, my driver heated seat has never worked. I suspect something has been disturbed during car play installation. I have the extra usb. Looking online at the Volvo accessories page, it’s quite involved. A terminal box underneath the driver seat has to have connections added to it. I asked the dealership service guy about it and he was very insistent that it was software only. So I can only assume that the additional port was fitted by the usb fairy.....
