6wb+CarPlay for $800 installed a good deal?

khanmohammed · 09-29-2020, 12:10 AM

As the title says, found someone local who is doing a 6wb cluster install that is virginized, along with CarPlay and screen mirroring for $800. Is it a good deal? How much would my 6wa cluster sell for

$800 is a good deal for 6wb alone. how are you getting carplay? MMI or NBT-EVO retrofit (or something else)? Actually, $800 for both sounds too good to be true.

This guy in my area is coding it, he's legit he worked on bunch of M cars and all. Yea that's what I was thinking! On eBay 6wb is like $1100 and CarPlay costs around $300-$500

Where is he getting the cluster from?
Sound like someone else experienced a late night 6WB uninstall

He's coding in carplay? Did you already retrofit NBT Evo?

How's he going to code in carplay? Or is that happening after your evo retrofit.

Unless this man knows some voodoo magic to get carplay working for nbt lol

Does he want to sell me just the hardwares? I'll do the install myself

I was but not worth the value I'd get, so imma just wait till more mileage

Something does not seem right. Maybe he's retrofitting a bimmertech or chinese mmi unit? And maybe he only quoted you for the 6WB coding?
