There are alternative ways to get Apple CarPlay in your car. Where do you even begin? You could be super lucky and have an Apple CarPlay enabled vehicle, but not everyone can stroll into a local car dealer and put down a lot of money for a new CarPlay enabled vehicle that works with your favourite Apple iPhone.
