Took a trip through eastern Oregon, Nevada and no-where Utah, most of the time no cell service therefore no Car Play. I have Starlink so I had to bungee my 13 in IPad to my 14 in screen to have GPS, weather and road conditions. I tried to get Car Play on Starlink without any luck. Did a search and found I needed a wired Car Play for it to work, tried that to no luck. What can I do?

I had this same problem but it’s an easy fix.
There is a USB C port on the side of the screen (top right).
That’s the wired port for car play.
1. Join the WiFi of your starlink
2. Plug in your phone - it should auto join but you may have to go into settings and join through the settings.

This works all the time and is super convenient. I have my Starlink mounted on my roof and leave it powered on all the time - either in standby mode or on full service.
