Wouldn't the OBDII Bluetooth dongle be talking to your phone, not the head unit? Apps that can be run via CarPlay (like DashCommand) are being run on the phone not the head unit. I remember seeing an iLX-007 review where the guy reviewing it was using DashCommand. Well, I have an OBDII Bluetooth dongle and use DashCommand so I guess we'll find out after I install mine.
