It's got a price of about 160.00 USD (146.00 EUR) and you can find it here:

I have sent to them a direct email asking for compatibility and they confirmed this dongle is 100% working on 2016-2020 Camaro.
Who will be the first to try it?
See you!!,

Is just a Bluetooth to USB bridge so that the MyLink thinks it’s hardwired?
If so, $160 seems a little high, unless there is some extra stuff going on in that dongle.
Edit: after reading the site it’s a Bluetooth and WiFi connection. If you use your hotspot in your car can’t anymore based on how this reads. As well as they recommend disconnecting all other Bluetooth devices (so smart watches) and WiFi (car hotspot) to make sure it connects to the correct device for this dongle. As well as the common trend I saw in reviews (audio issues when notifications come in, firmware issues, having to unplug and replug to get to work sometimes after getting back into car)
It has promise. But just not sold on it myself. Curious to see someone else try it out and give some feedback.
