Here is my review of the unit running Apple CarPlay. If you have any questions, let me know.

That would be a great help. I really want to buy one of these but want to make sure it’s something I can handle on my own and want to make sure that there are not any issues that you guys encountered that cannot be solved. Otherwise I will just keep what I have stock. Thanks again

Have you had any issues with your unit. Also how did you get that CarPlay option to show up in the menus?

Yeah, I am currently having issues with the screen glitching out when I start the car. I have to unplug the unit then plug it back in and then it's fine. They had been trying to figure out what it was and 4x4 Shop contacted me today and let me know that they had figured out what it was and are working on the fix so I am assuming it's a software issue. The CarPlay option if I remember correctly was already there. I think if you enable CarPlay in the settings, it may show up like on mine. That's just a guess though.

Wow, hopefully your unit was just an anomaly because $850 isn't cheap.

Yeah once I unplug it and plug it back in it's fine until the next time I turn the car on. Sometimes I can even just tap on the screen rapidly and it will stop the flickering. That's only sometimes, most the time I have to unplug it or turn the car off and turn it back on to reset the unit. I wish the unit had its own power button lol.

I am pretty sure it's the update they put on the unit. They told me they put their "newest update" on my unit right before they shipped it to me.

Yup they did on my replacement too, they told me they they were shipping it the next day bc they needed to put the update on it. Sounds to me like they just need to reverse it for now.
