Adding Apple CarPlay Andoid Auto

[italiano]

I've not been able to find this topic covered elsewhere.
MY2016/05 Incontrol Pro with widescreen and digital drivers dash.
Have had conflicting information. Local Jaguar stealers say it can't be upgraded but another says "of course it can but not for free" (£200 up).
Thought there might be a workaround?
Can get by without Carplay if it's too expensive but it IS very useful.

Any thoughts?

Try searching Youtube. I could be wrong but when I was looking for info on the XF a few weeks ago I'm sure I saw a video called something like "Apple Play/Android Auto upgrade" for either the XE or XF.
