Added a cheap Android Auto Wireless adapter

[WildHorse]

Got it at AliExpress. Received in about two weeks.

Installation is easy and connecting time at start is about 5-10 seconds. I'll use a double sided type to stick it under the bay.

Will see if the connection stay stable while driving. So far, seems good.

How cheap is cheap? Is this really something you can't find on Amazon or eBay?

Double stick tape should work as long as you use a good product and a lot of it.

 

[WildHorse]

Half or one third of the cost.

BTW, the double side tape is bought from it, too

Any particular reason that link is in Cyrillic alphabet and prompts me to open an app outside of Firefox?

Dude. Just no. Waiting for anything to ship from China isn't interesting to me, and even if I did I'm buying it from a US reseller.

Not sure, this is what on my Pixel 7:

Android Auto: 9.4.631624-release

My patriotism does not apply to electronic gadgets, lol.

I have been waiting on the AI Wireless model to be back in stock, but just saw essentially the same one on Temu so decided to take a chance on an Android Auto knock off and Temu at the same time (especially since I could pay via PayPal versus my credit card). Fingers crossed, lol

I would have sent you one free if you are in the US. I switched to iPhone and I got a wireless Motorola M1 sitting in my glovebox. I know how pinching pennies is nowadays. Paying things forward is good karma. I have a Rexing one coming for carplay so we will see how that goes. If you don’t get it or whatever let me know otherwise I will offer it to someone else here.

I would like to take you up on that offer if it's still available.

He mentioned his is for Carplay and you said you were getting Android Auto. So make sure you have an iphone before you take the offer. Otherwise, the generosity will be wasted.

If you reread he is getting Carplay for his new iPhone. He is graciously sending me his Motorola M1 that is definitely for Android Auto (he sent me a photo, so we are all good over here, thanks)
