Carplay on a base Disco3 S
Hi
What would be your (cheap ) recommendation to get a screen with CarPlay linked to the audio system on very very base 2005 disco 3 s?
Thanks !Serial Land Lover - (3 Defenders, 8 Range Rovers, 2 Freelanders, 4 D3s... to be continued)

Any one of the all in one Carplay/AA head units that just need an Aux In port on the vehicle audio system. Generally avoid the FM transmitter but some people complain of low audio levels on the aux in of the LR unit.

Thx for the replies.
I can't seem to find the aux port
Is it possible to have a system that doesn't have one?Serial Land Lover - (3 Defenders, 8 Range Rovers, 2 Freelanders, 4 D3s... to be continued)

Basic equipment does not have an auxiliary port, you will have to intervene directly on the AUX connection cables on the back of the radio.

This is super helpful, thanks a lot.
I'll do just that.
Now I just need to find one that fits good in the top area.
I also intend to wire a reverse camera. I wonder how I'll run the cable
I will then attach the power source to the reversing light.Serial Land Lover - (3 Defenders, 8 Range Rovers, 2 Freelanders, 4 D3s... to be continued)

I think those units look cheap, i'd prefer the type that fits in place of the factory screen.
I replaced mine 5 years and i would have fitted one if they were available then.

I understand but the screen is small and the components seem very old on these devices (android 11 for instance vs android 14)Serial Land Lover - (3 Defenders, 8 Range Rovers, 2 Freelanders, 4 D3s... to be continued)

I had the Carpuride and it worked very well without incidents and it was a good quality component, easy to attach in the hole of the original screen.
