Should I combox retrofit or Mr12volt w/ Most or Both my 2011 328i with CIC?

Can I just skip the com box and go straight mr12volt w/ most and get Bluetooth audio streaming or does it make sense to do both?

which mr 12 volt are you talking about the new one had carplay and android auto
but and internet stuff but is quite a bit more expensive . Designed to go with I drive
I think the simple one is simple.

Doesn't make sense to do both .

It may use wi fi from a cell phone.
