Default new wireless Android Auto attachment

For those of you that use Android Auto and hate having to connect it to the USB terminal, here are two articles highlighting new ways to eliminate the connection. I don't use it but thought members might find this attachment useful.

Pre-ordered it and currently estimated to be delivered this Saturday. Initial reviews and user impressions on reddit are it's easy and seamless.

Will update with my first impressions.

Dongle works perfectly. After car is turned on, Android Auto is wirelessly connected and available in around 30-45 seconds.
