How to open your MG RX5 garage door without Homelink?

There is an alternative way to open your garage door from your MG RX5 without using Homelink, called Apple Carplay. Your MG RX5 is certified by Apple to use Carplay.

CarPlay is a piece of software that allows your Apple iPhone to interface with your MG RX5's built-in entertainment and information system. CarPlay increases convenience and reduces distraction by putting commonly used apps, that would be necessary or especially useful while driving on your car's infotainment display. By doing so, CarPlay minimizes the need to actually handle your iPhone while driving.
