The kit that I got from Cambo is both CarPlay and Android Auto. You make the choice on connection…

Apologies and many thanks for the correction, I wasn't aware there was an android option.

I found this option on that Chinese website. Looks like a more "factory" looking option than the Tesla screen. I've requested installation instructions so let's see what's involved

Interesting. I found this too. I did this on my 07 using the 7" screen intended for the XF with an XK harness. Screen worked the same as the Tesla but none of the OEM buttons/ Controls worked on the panel beneath it so I'd like to reach out to the seller. Ultimately is was just a smaller version of the Tesla screen with the same issues. Don't know why they would only be for 2012 onward either but..

I confirmed with them - the site has been updated. The unit you were looking at is intended for the XF, not the XK
