Can I listen to music via Carplay while navigating Waze at the same time via the Android HU? Or do I just have the BT stream music from my iPhone to the HU to use Waze at the same time.

On the AvinUSA website... I’m guessing I just need
- the GPS splitter so the Android HU can use the existing GPS antenna?
- Apple Carplay adapter... I’m guessing this means that Carplay is hardwired... so it will charge as well right?
- back up camera... so that includes the back camera I am guessing? Or I still need to get an OE one?

Any socal shops that can install this? I have a feeling trying to explain to any audio shop that they need to cut the plastic housing and solder the GPS wire directly to the circuit board will have them very very confused.
Can't help you on the CarPlay portion, sorry. There is no cutting and soldering required. The GPS splitter just splits the original car GPS antenna into two outputs to connect to your original iDrive and the Android head unit.
