AAWireless Two dongle turns wired Android Auto into wireless
If your car only has wired Android Auto, there are a few solutions around that will turn it into a wireless connection, and the new AAWireless Two dongle seems like it's among the best out there. It will be released on October 20, and it's the successor to the original AAWireless gadget which has garnered a pretty substantial following since it came out a few years ago.
The new dongle is substantially smaller than the original - the quoted number is 30%. It also comes with a multifunctional button which makes entering pairing mode, switching between devices, and entering standby mode a breeze. You can customize the button's functionality through the updated companion app.
The AAWireless Two only supports Android Auto, but a "Two+" version that adds Apple CarPlay support is coming next year, promised to land before the end of March. Presumably, that one will be more expensive.
The AAWireless Two for Android Auto will set you back $64.99 in the US at Amazon and €59.99 to €67.99 in the EU at Amazon and Bol.com - the varying price levels are most likely due to different VAT levels throughout the EU countries. Due to "regulatory and logistical reasons", those in the UK, Switzerland, Turkey, South Korea, and Japan will have to wait "a bit longer" to order it.

There's tons of options like this. Since they aren't hard wired to the car it's going to lag and it's going to connect or remain connected while you're outside the car. A cable is still a better solution.

Did I read this incorrectly.... a number of these on the market already for AA wired to make it wireless. I use one bought from amazon at £25, works really well, very stable.
