If you had an option to convert the megabox, what would you do?

Personally, I’d like to see it converted into a proper insulated coolbox with a sealed lid.

Or a coolbox designed to fit.

There's a 12v socket in the boot. Should be able to find a powered one that fits πŸ‘πŸ‘

One thing I would have liked them to do with the modem and that they now have qi charging was integrated android auto wireless into sync 3. Probably coming with sync 4. Still going to have to plug my phone in 😏😏 1st world problems πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Never get caught out again. Bet this could connect to the drain plug as well. :D

Edit......Just ordered one....Delivery estimated June.....Will report findings when I get it.

Best idea for megabox is to hold a coolbox...Or turn it into one...

Any progress on this? Has it been delivered and what is the cost (when I Googled it, it looked quite expensive. How about reliability?

Still awaiting delivery, they had some manufacturing delays due the worldwide chip shortage so running a couple of months over. I didn't think Β£62 (depending on the exchange rate) was a lot to invest in a start up. It's not like buying something from a shop.
The communication from the company has been excellent throughout and I've no doubt I'll receive it soon. when I do I'll review it on here.
Those that have received theirs are all reporting that it works fine.

If you connect your smartphone to the USB port which is in the armrest in the middle of the front seat does auto android work ? If so than you can connect the AAwireless there.
