@Buhshaun I know this post is a little old, but how has this unit held up, and are you still happy with it?

I love it, I have a few friends that also drive RAMS (real ones not 3.6L lol) and I have recommended it to them. I have primarily been using voice command for streaming music, navigation, and most Android Auto features. I have an air mouse I use for Youtube and Hulu that has a USB dongle when I want to use my phone as a hotspot and play something for my kids on longer drives. I like the addition since the Uconnect system is pretty limited.

New member to the RAM Forum's and I had recently installed Android Auto/Apple Carplay into my 2017 RAM 1500 and was wondering if I re-did the installation and recorded a video if anybody would be intrested in seeing the process. I downloaded HULU Live TV and a few other applications and think it is a really cool addition to an already really cool truck. It kept all the factory features while adding Android Auto/Carplay/Google Playstore to my Ipod/USB input and I also have added a front camera to the truck. I use the truck as a farm truck mainly but had decided I needed to do something to fix what I felt like the factory Uconnect system was lacking. The product I installed was by a local company in Dallas and I had gone into the office and asked a ton of questions before purchasing and decided to go this route since I didn't want to get rid of the factory radio and seemed like they had the best product at the time I did my research. If I pull the equipment this weekend should I document the install and share it with y'all in the forums?

Thank you in advance!
Will this work with a 2015 Ram Longhorn Laramie with Alpine system?
I looked back on the thread and not sure if I missed the links or video?
Thanks!
