Wireless CarPlay Adapter and Android Auto Dongle for Factory Head Units

  • Cuts the cable: transforms a wired factory CarPlay or Android Auto head unit into a wireless one, allowing your phone to remain in your pocket.
  • Connects on its own: intelligent auto-connection pairs over Bluetooth and WiFi and retains your device settings, eliminating the need for repeated pairing on each trip.
  • Stable, high quality link: Bluetooth 5.0 and 5GHz WiFi operate simultaneously for seamless audio and display transmission.
  • Your controls still work: steering wheel buttons, touchscreen, microphone, and factory interface all function as they did before.
  • Gets better over time: automatic over-the-air updates enhance features and security without needing a visit to a shop.
  • Hides in the console: features a compact carbon fiber housing measuring 40x28x9.5mm that plugs into the USB port and stays out of sight.

A wireless CarPlay adapter eliminates the daily hassle associated with factory infotainment systems: the cable. Simply plug this car smart box into the USB port of a compatible head unit, and it creates a wireless connection to your phone. After that, the connection occurs automatically as you enter the vehicle, with no cords to untangle and no waiting while buckling up.

This adapter utilizes dual-protocol technology, ensuring a stable connection through Bluetooth 5.0 and 5GHz WiFi, allowing for smooth audio and screen mirroring. Smart AI technology remembers your device settings and bypasses repetitive pairing, while regular over-the-air updates keep the system up to date. All original controls remain active, including those on the steering wheel, factory microphone, and touchscreen.

As an added benefit, the sleek carbon fiber design complements any vehicle’s interior, supporting a wide range of applications for navigation, music streaming, audiobooks, and calls. It is compatible with iPhone 6 and newer models running iOS 10 and above, as well as Android devices on version 11 and above, across all vehicles equipped with CarPlay or Android Auto. With dimensions of 40x28x9.5mm and an ABS shell operating on 5V, it is truly plug and play.

FAQs

Q: Which iPhones and Android phones work with this wireless CarPlay adapter?
A: Compatibility is stated as iPhone 6 and newer running iOS 10 or above, and Android devices on version 11 or above.

Q: Will the dongle work in my car if the head unit only has wired CarPlay?
A: Yes, that is exactly its job. It converts a wired CarPlay or Android Auto head unit into a wireless one. The listed vehicle compatibility is all CarPlay and Android Auto equipped cars, so a head unit without either will not gain the feature.

Q: Do the steering wheel buttons and touchscreen still work after fitting the adapter?
A: Yes. Original control preservation keeps the car touchscreen, microphone, steering controls, and factory interface fully functional.

Q: How does the adapter connect and does it pair again every time I drive?
A: It combines Bluetooth 5.0 and 5GHz WiFi and uses smart auto-connection that remembers your device settings, so it reconnects by itself instead of asking you to pair again.

Q: What comes in the box and how big is the adapter?
A: The box contains 1 car smart box, 1 adapter, and 1 manual. The housing measures 40x28x9.5 mm in a carbon fiber black ABS shell and runs on 5V from the USB port.

The answers before the questions

When will it arrive? Delivery

Count on 4–12 business days from the moment you order. We take 1–2 business days to check and pack it, then it travels for 3–10 business days depending how far it has to go. Those are the windows our carriers actually meet rather than promises, and shipping is free on every order with no minimum spend. We ship within the United States only.

Shipping policy
What if I change my mind? Returns

You have 30 days from the day it arrives. Email us before you post anything back — we reply within 24 hours on business days with the return address, and you then have 14 days to send it. Items need to be unused and in the packaging they came in. You cover return postage, except when the fault is ours: damaged, faulty, or simply the wrong item in the box. We do not run exchanges — return it and reorder, which is quicker anyway.

Return policy
How quickly am I refunded? Refunds

Your return is inspected when it reaches us and we email you the outcome. The refund goes back to whatever you paid with, within 5–7 business days. After that it is your bank's timetable — most take a further 5–10 business days before the money appears. If something arrived damaged, tell us within 48 hours of delivery and we sort it without you paying postage.

Refund policy
Can I see where my parcel is? Tracking

Everything ships tracked. A number reaches you by email the moment your parcel leaves us, and you can check it on our tracking page using that number and the email address you ordered with. Carriers normally take 1–3 business days to log the first scan, so a blank result immediately after dispatch is expected. If nothing has moved for 7 business days, email us and we will chase it.

What can I pay with? Payment

The methods shown at checkout and in the footer of every page are exactly what is available to you — what appears depends partly on your device and location. Everything runs over an encrypted connection and card details never touch our servers. Prices are in USD, and sales tax is calculated at checkout rather than included in the price shown.

Payment policy
Is there someone I can actually talk to? Support

Yes. Email support@gutela.com or call +1 (445) 545-1683. A person reads every message — we do not run a bot on the inbox. Someone is at a desk Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM (ET), and every message gets an answer within 24 hours on business days.
