Pushing the modified file to the HU is the hard part. My guess is that one of the ways its currently being done is by exploiting a security flaw with how maps are being updated. There is a research paper on this. Unfortunately from the sound of some of the people creating the update.bin files it looks like this method has been patched in the latest "P" version of the nav firmware. There are a bunch of exploits in that research paper, but who knows how many of them have been patched in what vehicles.
If anyone has the fullscreen carplay done and are willing to participate in some research... could you send me your update.bin? I'd love to tear the .bin apart and see how it works.

Let me know if you need help looking into this. I can probably dig up how to push the files up, but not sure where you found the source for carplay.ini to begin with
