Wireless CarPlay Carlinkit 3.0 50% off

[slickzigtheruler]

Hey Telluride community, for anyone interested in wireless CarPlay, there appears to be a flash sale for 50% off going on for the CarLinkit 3.0. I’ve been in the market but couldn’t justify paying full price. More details here

Omg it feels like Christmas!! Couldn’t pass it up and ended up ordering one. This pretty much works to have phone on the screen correct? Play Netflix and use other apps on the Telluride Screen. Correct me if I am wrong.

Not quite, it's not an exact screen mirror. You can access apps that are compatible with carplay like messages, music, maps.

This adapter simply allows CarPlay to connect without the need to plug the phone in

No worries. I appreciate the feedback that’s usually the best knowing someone who has actually tried it before. Hopefully it was just an issue with the ones you received. If you don’t mind me asking what type of phone where you using? If it doesn’t work out I will gladly just return it.

It's $55 using the coupon code in the OP's link. After tax and everything my out of pocket was $62

I think it’s only on sale in the US. I had the same experience when clicking on the link from Canada.

my bad I didn't read everything. Still applies to Canada. I got it for $91 CDN. Still pretty good.

Has anyone ever received anything from "lightinthebox"? Doesn't sound like it's be easy to return to this site... but good luck.

she has a iphone xs max...the first one we received only had 1 usb-c port on it for the plug in wire...the second one we received had 1 usb-c port and a usb-a port on the other end...tried updating the firmware on each of the devices and tried updating her operating system on her phone as well...nothing helped

From reviews that i've looked up of that website, they have tons of them, and the are pretty good. I have seen reviews on returns saying people were refunded money and did not even have to send the item back. So not too bad. If anything its pretty cheap so not the end of the world lol.
