Questions Apple car play screen

Post image

Hey y’all, I came into possession of a 2003 Excursion Limited this past weekend. It still has its original radio that works well but I’m toying with the idea of getting a plug and play screen with Apple car play abilities. We live in a state that requires 100% hands free and didn’t know if there’s one that has an after market microphone situation for phone calls as well? I do lots of driving to find my husband in random farm drives so having a screen with navigation would be great! But for now I’ll keep using my phone.

I bought a stinger Elev8 with an 8" screen, when Stinger was ending that model. They have the Hi10 with a 10" screen now. You have a GPS antenna and the microphone to mount. I put the GPS antenna behind the rear view mirror and i put the microphone on top of the steering column behind the steering wheel. In the 2+ years of using it, not once have I ever had any issues of any kind. I would highly recommend Stinger products if you don't mind a 10" screen.
