A workable stopgap for wireless CarPlay on an older car, with expectations set by its sub-4-star rating rather than a swap-in receiver.

Overview
The VUKARUAL VK1 is a 7 inch add-on touchscreen that brings wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to a car without removing the factory stereo, powered from a cigarette lighter socket and mounted on the dash or windshield.
Amazon's own rating sits at 3.9 stars, the lowest in this batch, which lines up with it being a budget bolt-on rather than an in-dash replacement unit. It keeps the original radio in place and routes sound separately.
- 7 inch 1024x600 HD touchscreen
- Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- Backup camera input included
- Cigarette lighter power, self-adhesive dash or windshield mount
Who it's for
Drivers whose car lacks built-in CarPlay or Android Auto and want it added without pulling the factory head unit. Not for anyone who wants a proper double-DIN install or hardwired audio.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Adds wireless CarPlay and Android Auto without swapping the factory radio
- Backup camera input switches on automatically with the reverse light
- Several audio output paths: Bluetooth, AUX, FM transmitter, or built-in speaker
- Powered from a cigarette lighter socket rather than hardwired
- Audio quality depends on which output path is used, not a direct wired connection
- 3.9 star rating, the lowest of this group
Performance notes
Audio reaches the car's speakers through Bluetooth, or through AUX, an FM transmitter, or the unit's own small speaker if none of those are set up. The backup camera input wires to the reverse light so the image switches on automatically when backing up.
