Does anyone know if you can run carplay for video (maps, phone, etc) interface while using traditional FM radio for audio simultaneously using this kit?
Good question:

You CANNOT run your stock radio while using this install.
You are using the aux input & cant switch out of that.
BUT you CAN have the iheart radio app & pull in stations through carplay.
Or listen to music, podcasts, etc, while also doing maps etc.

Also, I find the audio superior to BT streaming from the phone.
BUT you have to turn your manual aux volume level down 2 clicks from the mid point (on your stock system) to ensure a clean/pure signal when amplified.
